Bar Yoku
Cuisine Good Food Guide Selection
Our verdict
If you love yakitori, you’ll love the options at this cosy izakaya. Skewers cooked over the coals of course, but loads more izakaya-style fare including sushi tacos, fresh raw plates and much more. An intimate atmosphere both in the restaurant and in the courtyard and bar designed. Great Japanese drinks too. Kanpai!
