Went to Yakitoritei with a few friends for a light dinner at around 9pm. The store was very empty but we decided to give it a try. Boy, was that a mistake.
Food: OK. Not bad. Not great. Lacks a chargrilled taste commonly found with better yakitori restaurants.
Service: Good. Staff were quick to clear out empty plates. However, they had a rather poor attitude when explaining the menu.
Pricing: Terrible! When you sit down you're given tea and salad (some cucumber and cabbage, uncooked) as is the standard in a Japanese restaurant. However, they charge you $20 per bowl without prior notice! And when you point out that you hadn't ordered their salad, they point you to some tiny small print on their menu stating that the salad they give you will be charged to your bill. Also, they put down a wrong order and refused to admit their mistake, instead charging us double for the item and what we had originally wanted. Personally, it's not a money issue as much as it is a sense of being cheated. Additionally, food is slightly overpriced for the small portions they offer.
Overall: Poor. If being ripped off is not your thing, do not offer this restaurant your patronage as your hard earned money is better spent on good food, as opposed to dodgey practices. It's no wonder this place was empty.
I am not a fan of Japanese stove-side bbq, but recommended by my frd, I tried w/ some frds last nite!
the environment is absolutely in the mood of japanese style, though the staff are all Honkees. They are nice n funny indeed as my frds n i are not familiarize with the food n ordering stuff, we questioned a lot, though that was a busy nite, they didnt hesitate our stupid questions.
about the food, it gave me surprise that merely 'meat' can be made in such a different way. the food isnt marinated or what that can brring out the origianl freshness of the food. with the seasoning only, it turns out in many different styles.
I recommend that we should go with a gang of frds as we can try different types of food. dun order a stick of each but share!!
it's a good place to drink n chat for a nite, u will nvr be pressured to leave, agn, the staff are friendly and sometimes give sharing with the customers.
a nice n out of expectation nite, though it's kinda expensive that i wont go there heaps, will recommend n return sometimes!!!!
This famous shop with another outlet in Happy Valley was disappointing to say the least. Ordered many Yakitori/Kushiyaki skewers and all of them were below-average. Even though they only use electric grills here, in reality a lot of electric grill yakitoris can still have some chargrilled taste due to the fat dripping back onto the heater element and cooking the meat in its own fat/juice.
1. Chicken with Negi - Chicken was dry, absolutely not chicken taste, no chargrilled taste, texture was tough. The worst Yakitori I've had in Hong Kong by far in similar shops. 6/10.
2. Chicken Wings - Skin was not crispy and no taste, chicken inside had no taste. Very way off other Teba-saki's standards, which are usually hard to stuff up. It was like half steamed, half grilled. 3/10.
3. Beef With Spring Onion and Garlic- Beef was super thin, barely grilled and no chargrilled taste. Too raw as well. Problem = beef was so thin, but they didn't want to over cook it. SO IT HAD NO TASTE! 1/10
4. Chicken with Tobikko Sauce (crab roe which is not crab roe) - Sauce was not bad and resembles a bit of mayonnaise mixed with cream and the tobikko. Chicken once again, no taste at all, under grilled. 6/10
5. Beef Tongue - The best of the night. Some pieces were a bit tough whereas 2 pieces were tender. Seasoning a bit uneven however. At least this was slightly crisper on the edges and had some charred taste but not much at all. 7.5/10
6. Kurobuta Pork with Negi - Recommended by waitress but super ridiculously dry, NO KUROBUTA TASTE (compared to say Sake and Yakitori 醉燒亭 not far from here), yet no charred taste either. Rubbish for such an expensive stick. Super tough as well despite not being overcooked. 0/10
Probably had some other things but overall this shop is not recommended at all. Not even OK, but below average, especially considering each stick here is on average $22-4X, some even more, and most of them you have to order minimum of 2 sticks. *Note - some sticks at discretion of shop can be ordered individually.
醉燒亭 closer to Fortress Hill is much much cheaper and much tastier than here, despite there having worst comments for now - since they only opened for around 2-3 months, but its picking up and getting better than here by far.
I went to Yakitorietei many times. Everytime i went there, i was really fully satisfied. The staff are very friendly and professional. The food is excellent but a bit salty. Recommend items: Ox tongue Chicken wing Goose liver Corn Chicken soft cartilage Um Chun Egg
The most favourable thing is : it opens till 2am!!!
Must recommend their chicken wings, although it takes 20 or more minutes to make, it's worth the wait, it's roasted so crispy that I could have sworn it was deep fried if I didn't see the chef grilling them.
As for the Wagyu beef, I would say the quality is mediocre and no real need to try...
comes out to approx $500 per person sake and beer included.
It's worth a try if you haven't been before.
One thing though... this place uses direct heat from electric grill so there is not chargrilled flavour.. you'll be disappointed if that's what you're after.
This shop is bigger, most important their food quality is the same.
I would like to share some of my "must eat" items Shrimp with chicken skin 雞皮蝦 Japanese Oysters 燒蠔 Goose Liver 鵝肝 Angus Beef 安格斯牛柳 Chicken Wings 雞翼 Ox Tongue 牛舌 Sweet Corn 粟米 Small Mushroom 本菇 Grilled Rice Ball 燒飯團or Udon 稻庭烏冬
Just to remind you that they have Special Late Night Menu after 11pm.. Yummy!!

不知所謂既服務態度
入去後足有兩三分鐘無人理會,
眼見有一張6人空枱, 另外吧枱4個空位,
終於有人先說只剩吧枱位, 好, 無所謂,
行到位置, 才剛想坐下, 突然改口又話無位,
沒有任何解釋, 只有一句唔好意思,
被請出去, 有無攪錯, 有無人訂位應該一早知,
你叫得我入去, 有無人訂位你都要安排比我,
真係有誤會你都要好應該好好解釋比我聽,
就咁話無位要人走, 不知所謂

爐端燒賀生日
可能因為係地點有點兒不方便, 都唔係好易搵到, 所以週末入去都唔係好FULL 不過D WAITER 有點大細超, 入去話冇訂台, 佢就講只有BAR 台, 但係其實仲有好多台, 初時以為有人訂, 後來先知其實係冇人0既
這裡制度嚴謹得很﹐說不可以order 一串, 所以一定要同朋友來
燒帶子皇 : 肉厚肥美, 帶子有康樂棋咁大, 味道鮮甜, 唯一美中不足係overcooked, 令個帶子
0既質感太老, 太多纖維, 如果生多兩成就perfect
汁燒白菌 : 味道一般, 雖然好大
燒栗米 : 真係好甜, 而且外面有bbq sauce, 真係好夾, 一讚 , 但是都好貴, $36一份
日本番薯 : 好好味, 不槐電視飲食節目0既推介
多春魚 : 雖然唔係大路choice, 但係都有驚喜, 香口皮脆
服務方面都唔錯, 一直不停添茶 同收碟, 一秒都唔會慢
雖然價錢唔平, 但係食物水準唔錯, 廚師技術幾好 都有欣賞價值, 下次都會想再去

燒鳥亭.燒不停
燒帶子皇
此店面積不大,但由門口到內部均為和風設計,就像日本的居酒屋一樣,讓人感覺很舒適自在。
食物方面,這裡「清一色」就日式爐端燒。我們點了十數款,看著師傅逐一放在炭爐上燒,偶爾灑灑調味料,非常專業。
烤銀雪魚乾:很脆很香口,作為佐酒小食簡直一流。
燒帶子皇:肉厚肥美,但略嫌燒得過火,始終覺得刺身比較美味。
燒大蝦:夠爽夠彈牙,大蝦連殼燒,鮮味不易溜走,正。
燒廣島蠔:外面燒得香脆,鮮味蠔汁卻鎖在內,不錯。
燒劍魚腩:感覺就像外國人把新鮮魚拿來炸,有點浪費。
燒鵝肝:濃濃鵝肝香味,外面燒得剛剛好,把多餘脂肪去掉,變得不肥膩,一流!
燒芝士雞翼:雞肉嫩滑,滲進芝士香味,很好。
燒羊扒:推介之作,羊扒肉厚但不肥膩,又不會燒得過熟,讚!
青葵蟹籽雞肉串:醬汁很特別,但雞肉一般,可留肚吃下一道。
燒牛舌:牛舌肉厚,外面燒得香脆,但裡面仍可留著肉汁,不錯。
燒芝士脆肉瓜:芝士味濃,配上清爽翠玉瓜,好!
汁燒白菌:誠意之作,由白色大大粒燒到金黃色,少些耐性也不能。
燒飯團:外面脆,帶有少少焦香,裡面熱騰騰,口感一流,配上紫菜來吃更好。
總括而言,食物質素高,師傅手功也不錯。但價錢頗高,加上大部份串燒均要叫最少兩串,人少時想多試些款式也不行哩!

燒焦鰻魚>_<"
之後其後三客串燒也來到了,而且全部都是熱的。
燒釀東菇:口感不錯,東菇很鮮味;
煙肉三文魚:三文魚很美味,煙肉卻少得幾乎吃不出;
xx雞肉串:不記得正確名稱,但很好食,雞肉嫩滑和醃得很入味,火候剛好;
總括而言,串燒的質素與價錢不相乎,奉勸想來吃的朋友,可以選擇十點後的宵夜時段,價錢比較相宜,雖然款式並不多。

不如改名做燒錢亭
首先, 每樣串燒都要一定要叫兩串, 而每一串都起碼要成$20, 我唔明白點解佢唔可以叫一串, 咁一個人嚟食嘅話咪每款都一定要食兩串? 就算我地兩個人, 以同樣嘅價錢, 都唔可以試多一d款。佢燒嘅時候都係一條條燒啦, 都唔明對佢有咩損失。
其實價錢都唔係一個問題, 只要好食嘅話, 之不過我叫咗幾款嘢食, 好似樣樣味道都係差唔多, 都係醃都一樣味, 得個鹹字。
安格斯牛肉不怕靭, 不過略厭太熟, 因為睇到裡面熟晒, 只可惜食唔到香嘅牛肉味, 可能醃料味蓋咗。雞皮燒得太硬, 劍魚腩又太熟, 感覺好似食班腩咁。係得最後有一碟芥棘雞肉比較好, 味道有d唔同同埋雞肉唔怕’鞋’。
好彩開頭叫咗每人六串嘢, 食完即刻走人, 每人都要埋單$190, 食唔飽去隔離食碗清湯腩依肚好過。

大失所望
雞肉串燒不熟,帶子燒又太老,露筍煙肉也嚼不爛。
店鋪裝修挺好,可惜只是徒有其表而已。

舊曆生日晚餐
安格斯牛肉
雞泡魚乾
鵝肝
鵝肝同安格斯牛肉都係入口即溶化, 好正. 雞泡魚乾燒得好好味, 一點都不會覺得有腥味. 同埋青椒仔用來送酒真係一流. 粟米略甜. 其他保持水準好好味. 都係0個句, 如果不用每串都要最少叫兩串, 咁會好點. 有時想食少少, 但一諗到要叫兩串, 就放棄叫了.
叫了一支720ml 玉乃光純米大吟嚷清酒, $480, 店子做緊特價, $384. 味道不錯.

從未如此滿足
原來天后開左間新鋪,就試一試,地點ok,離mtr不遠。
內裏裝修同跑馬地差不多,但比較寬敞。
去到先黎一碟牛舌,嘩,勁正。之後食羊扒,露旬,牛柳,等,都非常出色。
服務員會不斷為你換碟,添茶,服務周到。
雖然3個女仔食了十幾串串燒,但已經非常滿足...
