About this spot
Sasaya delivers authentic Yanaka-style kushiyaki where skewers are grilled over charcoal and served with a savory, slightly sweet tare sauce that clings perfectly to the meat. The izakaya atmosphere feels like stepping back in time, surrounded by locals enjoying simple comfort food like pork belly and chicken wings without any pretension.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order the 'tsukidashi' (starter) set to get a sampler of the day's fresh skewers before ordering your main selection.
- Don't be shy about asking for extra sauce on the side, as the grilled meat absorbs flavor best when dipped generously.
- Visit during dinner hours to experience the lively neighborhood vibe where tables are often packed with regulars.
