Yakitori Toriyoshi Ginza Review Summary

Great range of flavours, textures, and techniques on offer. Really enjoyed the whole experience.

After walking into many yakitori places nearby and got rejected as a foreigner, we are happy this place is available. The food is good, however, be aware of different prices. First, the Japanese menu has no price, people say the English menu has 100 surcharge on each skewer. Also, there is 800 per person cover charge and 10% consumption tax to foreigners, don’t see those charges on the Japanese menu. Left feeling rip off. Costed 13k for three people and not even full.

I saw some reviews about not being able to get on without a reservation. Well, make a reservation! I did and it was awesome. You can't just expect to get your own way. You should act like a guest in an important person's house. Then things will go smooth.

Talked to the old couple next we for an hour. The food is perfectly cooked, drinks wer strong, all around awesome place.

Racism and feel being discriminated against. I made a reservation at 4pm for 2 person dinner at second floor at around 7:30pm. When we went to the restaurant at 7:30, they told me that they could not find my reservation. No apologies and behaved as I made a lie about my reservation. Very rude and indifferent attitude to us while the waiter held pretty much different attitude to local guests. The final outcome was still asked us to wait without any guaranteed waiting time. I feel very disappointed and furious about their attitude. Will never recommend to anyone.

awful place. Food is terrible, I don’t know why they have good rating on tabelog. It’s literally the worst food I have ever had in Japan. Service is terrible too, they can’t understand anything even if I used translating apps. I was waiting for more than 30 mins to get service. Had to tell them to stop serving food, I paid the bill and left. Worst experience ever.
