Very good yakitori. Was in Kyoto for a short international trip away from home after being unable to travel for last 3 years due to covid. Made a reservation 1 month in advance for a table for 2 at 8pm. A very popular place. When we got to the restuarant we were promptly seated on seats on the bar counter. A relatively small restuarant and it was full. A number of guys preparing and cooking the food and a couple more waiting on the tables. As we didn't know much about the cuisine, the chef who spoke very good English because he is from US recommended a number of menu items to us. We ordered a few dishes and got quickly to understand how it worked. After finishing the standard starter dish and a few dishes recommended by the chef, we started ordering a lot of dishes. Wsshed down with a couple of glasses of beet. Very busy. While we were there a number of people were enquiring at the door for a table, but were politely refused. We were in the restuarant for our 1.5 hour seating. For the two of us the total bill 2 was around JPY15k. Left very satisied and full. Highly recommended. Need to make advance booking to avoid disappointment
