We came here for a company dinner — a party of five on a weekday evening. The meal totaled nearly $450.

Overall, the food was delicious and satisfying. We ordered a variety of items like salad, skewers, ramen, and drinks — and enjoyed every dish.

However, there were two major issues that left a bad taste in the end.

First, the way skewers were served was a bit confusing. For example, we ordered 5 gizzards and 5 meatballs,...
I tried Torigoya's 10 course menu plus some additional skewers and the oyako bowl. It's not the best I've had, but it's not bad.

I usually like going early, right when they open to avoid the crowds since they have limited staff, and everything can get a bit slow when it's busy. Keep in mind it's just Tomo-san grilling every skewer himself, so patience is definitely key. I prefer ordering everything at once so he can pace the yakitori.

It’s been almost four years since my last visit to Torigoya, and the service has improved significantly. The yakitori was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The Kirin draft beer was ice-cold and delicious! I felt like I was back in Japan. Lastly, there’s no validation at Torigoya, so you’ll have to pay parking or get a validation from another store if possible.
