Yakitori King

Pick a few skewers, then add a side. Yakitori King is a takeaway-only shop focused on yakitori, with chicken steak and croquettes among its other offerings. Some customers describe the yakitori as small, making it easy to choose a skewer at a time. Try a few different kinds, or buy a selection to enjoy at home.

Among the skewers, diners mention cartilage, shiso-wrapped skewers and vegetable rolls. Mixing in skewers with different flavours, rather than sticking to the standard yakitori choices, makes it easy to put together a meal or something to accompany a drink at home. For something other than yakitori, tulip chicken and karaage are also options. One customer likes the tulip chicken; another, who bought karaage alongside yakitori, says the crisp texture of the fried chicken skin stood out. Adding fried items to your skewers gives you more choice at the table.

Some customers say they reheated their yakitori at home before eating it. With time to choose from what catches your eye at the counter, this is an easy stop when you want to put together a meal without much fuss.
