What people say
Yakitori restaurants are known for their delicious grilled skewers of meat, and Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori & Chanko Gardena is no exception. What sets them apart is their commitment to using only the best quality ingredients, including free-range chicken that is meticulously prepared by hand every morning. The result is a taste and aroma like no other, thanks to the expert grilling over imported oak charcoal by their experienced chefs.
Located on South Western Avenue, Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori & Chanko Gardena is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner. While they occasionally have limited-time offers like their recent 30% off lunch special in celebration of 30 years of Yakitori Gardena's lunch service, their regular menu offerings are consistently delicious.
In addition to their yakitori skewers, they also offer nabe hot pot dishes that are perfect for sharing with friends and family. And if you're looking for something to drink, be sure to try their special Japanese sake from Yamagata.
Overall, Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori & Chanko Gardena is a must-visit destination for anyone who loves flavorful grilled meats and authentic Japanese cuisine.
