Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi, Japan｜Yama Restaurant

Definitely the best yakitori in town. My wife and I tried this place during our stay near Mt Fuji and we were so blown away by the food that we had to come back again one more time before leaving. The chef is very welcoming and speaks a bit of English. If you are reading this, we really loved your restaurant! "See you tomorrow!"

We came here as early as 5pm and waited past 5pm about 5-10mins before it actually opened. We had pasta, porridge and yakitori. The chicken yakitori meat is very tender and juicy. Pork yakitori is nice (the one with green pepper and cheese) too but chicken is the best. Fret not, food are ordered using tablet (English menu is available). One person minimum one drink each and there is a mandatory cover fee (300 yen). We spent around 4,xxx yen for two. Important note to come early because there are reserved table for locals. Hence seats are limited. Service is good.

So happy with our choice to come here! The staff was friendly, the service was quick, and the food was yummy! Lots of protein in preparation for our hike tomorrow. Thanks for being so kind to us! 💗
