Run, don’t walk to this yakitori hidden gem! By far the best yakitori outside of Japan. The chefs were certified yakitori chefs - 10/10 food and atmosphere! The staff was super attentive, the yam fries were amazing and the chicken and beef sticks were just top tier. Will definitely be back asap to get more!

Such a cute and cozy spot! The food at Zakkushi is absolutely excellent—everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The only small downside was that the dining area was a bit hot, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience. Definitely planning to come back!

All the meat was juicy and perfect. The atmosphere of the restaurant was lively and filled with popular Japanese music. Staff were friendly and attentive, especially when it came to taking away empty plates and serving food in a great timing.

I had the zakushi set, onigiri, okra, and tofu and wakame salad. All were delicious!

Recommend the oro beef and tsukune. A must try!! If you’re indecisive, the zakushi set is the go to.

It’s...
