Yakitori Taisho centers its menu on two things: yakitori grilled over premium bincho charcoal and a curated selection of Japanese craft sake. The appetizers aren't an afterthought here — they're built specifically to pair with what's being poured, so the food and drink lists work as one menu rather than two separate ones.
The room is small and it fills up, with regulars becoming familiar faces to the staff over time. Diners consistently point to the quality of the skewers and the warmth of the service as reasons they keep coming back.
Taisho is part of USA Yakyudori Inc., a San Diego-based group that also operates Yakyudori, Hinotez, Hinotez Bar, Hino, and Ko-Li Bar, along with a location in Tokyo.
