Yakitori Toge (焼き鳥 峠)

A few minutes from Ushigome-Kagurazaka Station, Yakitori Toge builds its menu around Hinai chicken from Akita, grilled with the kind of unhurried attention that has earned it a place among the region’s top-rated yakitori spots for four years running. The counter draws a loyal local crowd on weeknights, while a private room option makes it a favorite for small gatherings that want the same skewers without sharing the room. Service starts later on weekdays but opens up for an earlier dinner on Saturdays and holidays, giving Kagurazaka regulars a flexible way to fit a plate of expertly charred chicken into their evening.
