Yakitori Taka (焼き鳥 貴)

Yakitori Taka has earned three consecutive Tabelog Hyakumeiten yakitori WEST selections from 2023 through 2025 from its counter-only room near Nishitetsu-Hirao Station. The kitchen specializes in Takasaka chicken, a rare breed also favored by similarly styled restaurants across Kyushu, with the chef grilling each skewer individually in front of guests in an omakase, course-based format. The restaurant operates until its ingredients sell out each night rather than keeping fixed closing hours, underscoring its focus on quality over volume.
