About this spot
Izakaya Tatsuko delivers a solid dose of Yanaka's authentic neighborhood charm with charcoal-grilled yakitori that sizzles right before your eyes. Order the classic tsukune or skin-on thigh skewers, but be prepared to order in Japanese as English menus are rarely available here. The small plates and shared platters make it perfect for trying a wide variety of chicken cuts without breaking the bank.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order in Japanese to get better service and avoid confusion over menu items.
- Skip the rice if you want to save room for multiple skewer orders.
- Expect a lively, casual atmosphere where standing at the counter is common.
