Special thanks to the far east service crew team for accommodating us to celebrate our aunt birthday. We will definitely come back to dine again for the yummy food! The veggie skewers are charred to perfection, retains the original juice and flavour of the vegetables. Chicken ball skewers are super juicy and my favorite is the chicken butt there... see more

The pork belly is good but a bit salty. Chicken wing is well marinated. Tap water is not provided.

I decided to do a takeaway since the place was rather crowded. Ordered a beef rice bowl and a few Yakitori sticks – Garlic Pork, Negima, Tebasaki, and Asparagus Maki. Honestly, I was quite disappointed. Waiting time was supposed to be about 15 minutes (as informed by the waitress) but ended up being 30 minutes. The Negima and Asparagus Maki usuall... see more

Decent food with decent value. Yakitori is their specialty. Would give it a 4/5, 8/10 overall. Taste is there and quite fun atmosphere.

Been here since around 2012 and have been coming back to fix my husband’s craving almost every other month 😅 Staff have been here forever too, and are always warm, courteous and attentive. Love having the countertop tables as watching the cooks grill the yakitoris’ opens my appetite even further than the smell already did 😄

Yakitori was excellent especially the chicken wings. Service was excellent , so polite and accomodating , giving us tea top ups and even a spoon unasked when the wait staff saw that I was struggling with the rice. Each skewer was delicious and different. We sat at an awkward place, @ the entry to the kitchen , yet the staff were so considerate

Came on weekday lunch & there was no wait, but it filled up quickly. Intimate izakaya feel where most of us were seated at the counter facing the chefs grilling skewers. There were maybe 15 seats at the counter & 2 other tables. I read about their affordable yakitori set menus and they met expectations. Bento B was under $20, super yummy, and it c... see more
