About Yamagasa Ikebukuro

Down a set of stairs in Higashiikebukuro, Yamagasa offers a cozy yakitori experience. The intimate counter lets you watch the chefs prepare each skewer over the charcoal grill. Regulars praise the tsukune, which has a rich, savory flavor, and the negima, featuring perfectly balanced chicken and scallions. Because reservations are recommended, securing a spot ahead of time ensures you can settle in for an evening of sake and skewers.
