    Delicious variety of Japanese tapas mostly based on chicken: the katsu curry scotch egg it's from another planet. Try any Yakatori. Fried chicken is perfectly done. Get 4 dishes per person to fill you

    Go for the Scotch egg, chicken thighs, juicy oyster king mushroom and the delectably charred yaki onigiri!

    Whatever you do get the minced chicken w/ egg yolk dip. If they have the ginger ice cream w/ salted caramel & sesame dessert get that too.

    Wonderful place. Make sure you try the Katsu Curry Egg for starter, three or four mains will be enough for two and finish with the wonderful Matcha ice cream dessert.

    An adorable, minimalist yakitori joint in Dalston. Don't skip on the katsu curry scotch egg and the tofu & mizuna salad!

    Had the Omakase feast with a side of salmon tataki. All very tasty and nice chilled atmosphere, highly recommend.

    I was really looking forward to yakitori, it was quite bland. Rest of the lunch bowl was tasty, fantastic (unexpected) poached egg. Yuzu ginger beer was tasty!

    Brilliant and authentic yakitori - they import their grill from japan!

    Chicken thighs are hard to beat, hearts are nice for the more adventurous. House made plum wine with soda goes down easy

    There is a great choice of food to pick from. Even thought it’s busy the service is good and quick.

    It's a bit overrated. We were served undercooked chicken. 😣 The scotch eggs were ok, nothing to write home about. Pickled goods were nice.

    Can't recommend Katsu Curry burger. Chicken meat is poor bone-chunky quality, white to red, had to spit out lots of pieces. 2 items on bill we never received. Lovely design, but lacklustre execution.
