Definitely a little expensive for what it is, but the quality and ambiance are certainly there. Wish there was slightly more variety in seasoning, but the chicken does really shine. Their iteration of an old fashioned is also unexpectedly good.
Such an amazing and unique experience! Never had anything like it, here in the city or elsewhere. The concept overall is super creative and every course is prepared so thoughtfully. My personal favorites were the Chicken Pate with Truffle Sandwich, Chicken "Oysters", Chicken Katsu with Fuji Apple, and Chicken Thigh mixed with Duck Meat with Dipping Egg. The service was impeccable and the yakitori being cooked on the flames is a show in itself. The flavors are curated so carefully,...read full review

The food was good. But I was sad to not have a lot of the rare parts mentioned in the nytimes and older reviews like the ovary with inlaid egg and the rooster crown. The rarity was what I was really looking for at this kind of price point. Chicken belly skin was one of my favorite yakitoris of the night. Seeing the cooking done over the grill was amazing. It was also a nice and lively atmosphere unlike other omakases establishment, which I enjoyed.
