Kanetatsu (かね辰)

Kanetatsu is a distinguished yakitori restaurant located near Sannomiya Station in Kobe’s Chuo Ward, honored as one of Tabelog’s Hyakumeiten (Top 100) yakitori restaurants for 2025. Tucked away on the mezzanine floor near Ikuta Shrine’s east entrance, this intimate izakaya-style establishment has built a loyal following for its meticulously grilled skewers and warm hospitality. The chefs take great care in selecting quality chicken and grilling each piece to achieve the perfect balance of char and juiciness. As ingredients are prepared fresh each day, popular items can sell out, so reservations later in the evening are subject to availability. Its central location near Ikuta Shrine makes it a convenient and memorable stop for a night out in Kobe.
