Itchōme (一鳥目)

Two minutes from Shiroshita Station in Okayama’s Omotecho entertainment district, Itchome has built a reputation as what local reviewers call the city’s ‘first choice’ for yakitori, a nod to both its name and its standing among Okayama diners. The restaurant serves six nights a week from 5:30 PM, closing on Thursdays. Dinner typically runs ¥8,000 to ¥10,000 including drinks, and its steady popularity has made it one of just a handful of Hyakumeiten-recognized yakitori restaurants in Okayama city.
