Yakitori Tokei (焼鳥 登鶏)

A short walk from Yoshida Station in Higashiosaka, Yakitori Tokei operates as a completely reservation-only restaurant built around premium branded chicken breeds, seating just seven guests at the counter alongside a single private room. Weekday service runs three nightly seatings starting at 6:00, 7:45, and 8:45 PM, while weekends and holidays run two seatings at 5:00 and 7:45 PM; the restaurant is closed Mondays. Dinner typically runs ¥10,000 to ¥15,000, reflecting its focus on high-grade jidori chicken sourced specifically for its skewers, a step up from the more casual yakitori bars found elsewhere in the city.
