Ken Yakitori

Nice food for late night dinner, been here last decade. The ox tongue in the combo was always overcooked, otherwise everything was good. I noticed the hearty beef soup was more like a stew, it was tasty not too salty. Their chicken wings were one of favorite nicely grilled.

All foods are perfect. The chicken skin is good, and i like unlimited cabbage. Sashimi is delicious but expensive. Highball is bland.Draft beer is fine. The food here is perfect. sometimes its added twice Check the receipt carefully when paying

Must try prawn with pork! Amazing! Beef croquets. Yes tiny portions, yes you wait. But the ambience and seriously delicious Japanese beer will make it up for it. You won't fill up they way you do on a burger but I think Japanese food can teach you that there is a magic in small bites and if not, then go for a ramen and fill up elsewhere. I think this place has a character and it is interesting to try something different

Three stars for the hard working owner/chef. Skewers don’t deserve ratings. If this restaurant is running in Japan, I believe it wouldn’t survive more than one year with such quality and taste of the food.

10/10 recommend this Japanese Yakitori bar !! I went to the date night with my boyfriend and we both love this bar. good vibes here, basically all staff are friendly and quick service system. Mainly food also was good!! beef tongue and chicken hearts was really good for my experience i love it taste

Small restaurant with delicious yakitori skewers. Prawn wrapped with porks skewers and scallops skewers are highly recommended. Small mixed sashimi dish is nice and fresh. Mio sparkling sake tastes great as well Overall, it's a bit pricy but the food is delicious and the service is good. Have to book a table before coming as it seems quite popular.

It would give a feeling that you are at some local yakitori place in Japan. Visited twice a week. The foods were so delicious and the service was good especially, thanks to Myu. The tables are very small though. My favorites were ramen, yakitori chicken thighs with spring onion, and beef sirloin, and Orion beer.Food: 5/5

Best Yakitori Bar in Auckland. The food is always cooked to perfection - as in how much the food is cooked, the perfect flavouring of salt/sauce. Highly recommend the Beef Tongue and Pork Belly! Atmosphere is cozy, with high beat music going in time with the man behind the grill. It is mesmerising to watch his skills. Suitable touches of having bag hooks under the table is amazing. Staff are always friendly and attentative. Recommend booking in advance as it is always usually full! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian skewers available. Parking: Adjacent paid Street parking and also a paid parking across the road. Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible via ramp in, but seating is not suitable to dining in

The best & authentic Yakitori joint I have ever been to in my life!!! Not only all the foods and drinks were great and authentic but also service provided was the one that made me really enjoy the whole experience while I was dining there. Its decors and atmosphere reminded me of good & traditional Yakitori venues in Japan as well. I found this place by accident. I went to a ramen joint nearby there and had a ramen and dumplings. I also wanted to have fried rice since I was super hungry without having lunch today. But that ramen joint don’t have it tonight they had run out of it, so I checked if there was any other Japanese restaurant nearby. Ken Yakitori was just a minute away from there, so I went to check it out. They were full but there was a table open which was the smallest one they had. I took it since I was by myself and had no issue with it. Maybe after 30 minutes or so passed, 2 ladies at the counter left. Soon after that, 2 new customers arrived, so I thought they would give that space to these 2 new customers. To my big and pleasant surprise, one of the servers came up to me offering to move to that counter since it was more comfortable and I was at their venue before these new customers. He got me there! It was totally unexpected him to ask me if I wanted to move at all. What a caring person he was! I obviously declined since my table was too small for 2 people. 10 minutes or so passed and he came by asking me if I wanted to order more food or drink. Instead of ordering foods/drinks, I told him how much I appreciated his thoughtfulness and great hospitality. He then just said it was a natural thing for him to ask!!! What a great person he is and hospitality it was!!! With all that being said, I highly recommend this venue to everyone. I’ll definitely go back there next time when I’m in town without a doubt. FYI, all foods there were awesome but their Gyu tan beef tongue was my most favorite & AMAZING and the BEST I had ever had

A perfect place for friend and family to hangout. Lovely environment with friendly staff. Every dish is impeccable. Crispy Juicy kalage chiken with decent seasoning. Juicy and tender BBQS. Lovely flavored rice balls. What else can you ask for! Btw the achochol drink is too good ! I want a case of that lol! 10 out of 10! My secret restaurant! Will definitely come back again!
