01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

One of the pleasures of ordering yakitori is how each skewer offers a different flavour. At Tennoji Yakitori porc, that variety ranges from chicken neck grilled with Kyushu-style sweet soy sauce to tail, cooked until its skin is crisp. Some diners have singled out the chicken neck and tsukune, while another praised the fragrant skin and tender meat of the negima, as well as the lightly cooked sasami. Negima is available in limited quantities, and tsukune comes with a choice of tare, salt or cheese. Pairing one of the sweet-soy skewers with a differently seasoned one makes for an appealing contrast.

Between skewers, try the potato salad with warm porcini sauce. One diner described it as a dish to eat with the sauce, rather than one where the potato itself is heavily seasoned; it could make an aromatic change of pace from the yakitori. Japanese shiitake mushrooms and onion fritters offer options beyond chicken. To finish, there is chilled tantanmen, oyakodon or ramen with sake-steamed clams, while cheesecake and ice cream are among the sweets. You can keep the meal light and centred on skewers, or carry on through noodles and dessert. A diner who chose the chilled tantanmen to finish recalled enjoying the soup, and another praised the almond-milk cheesecake with ice cream. Yakitori followed by noodles, with dessert if there is room, is one possible way to shape the evening.

For a group meal, set courses include an all-you-can-drink option for 2 hours. The 5,500-yen course includes 3 types of yakitori, fried chicken and other dishes, for 8 items in total; the 6,000-yen course features 4 types of yakitori and pork shoulder, while the 6,500-yen course also includes seared wagyu. The dishes are served to share rather than individually, and the contents may vary depending on ingredient availability, so check when booking. Seating includes counter and table seats, as well as private rooms; one diner mentioned enjoying a course in a private room. The restaurant is on the 3 floor of a building, and reviews also note that access is by stairs. Booking a dinner table and deciding which skewers and finishing dish to try beforehand can help you plan the meal.
