Excellent food, but exorbitantly priced for the tastemakers and intelligentsia to gobble up.
Not great value.
Not great value.
This place is hands down one of the best meals I’ve had living in NYC, and I’ve been here for the better part of 15 years. Everyone working, the chefs, wait staff, next level. Food was authentic and insanely tasty. It’s not a cheap meal but it’s definitely worth it. Will be coming back once my wallet recovers (:
Best yakitori i have tried outside of Japan. Crazy good quality, amazing atmosphere and great service. Love it!

Torien, an acclaimed yakitori bar, offers an exceptional dining experience that celebrates the art of traditional Japanese cuisine. The menu boasts a 13-course omakase featuring an array of expertly grilled chicken parts, including organs, as well as carefully selected vegetables. Utilizing binchotan charcoal from Kishu, Japan, Torien infuses its ingredients with a distinctive, coveted fragrance. The chicken, including the heart, is meticulously cooked over low heat to achieve optimal doneness, showcasing the variety of chicken parts, such as skin, thigh, knee, shoulder, and wings. The wonton soup has a unique and silky texture, while the menu finishes with a comforting bowl of ramen and a smooth caramel purin. Staff are attentive and welcoming, providing a fantastic experience. Torien is considered the best yakitori in New York City, even surpassing some establishments in Japan.
