Kyoto, Japan｜Zen

Excellent yakitori place . Staff were welcoming and helpful with ordering. Food was delicious , both veggie and meat options . Standouts were the chargrilled rice cakes and the chicken with scallion. Chargrilled tofu also looked excellent . Prices better than elsewhere we have tried .

Just a flat out superb local spot.

I have eaten a lot of yakitori but this place makes it quite delicious! The menu in English doesn’t include the “weird” things (heart, liver, cartilage, and my absolute favorite: gizzard) so you have to ask for them in Japanese. Beat that number of sticks!
