My second meal here was due because the first was so delicious. Again I was impressed by the Yakitori techniques and delicious choices of meat cuts chosen by Chef Akihiro Kitade. This is as good as Japan (if not better) and available on the Gold Coast! The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable too 👍🏻👍🏻
