    The service is exceptionally pleasant. The staff is very attentive and will check on you occasionally. The food was delicious. The beef was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the garlic beef skewer and basil chicken skewer. I appreciated the good selection of beer. I had the Kuronama Lager, it paired very well with the food. If you enjoy a fancy cocktail, they have a menu with a wide array of aesthetically pleasing drinks. The ambience had a very modern and classy aesthetic. Great for date night or dinner and drinks with friends. Overall, i highly recommend. If you're looking for value in qty, it is slightly pricey for yakitori. However the flavour, service and ambience make it worth while. I would definitley go back.
