Hina Yakitori

Hina Yakitori stands as a temple to the art of Japanese skewered chicken in the bustling heart of San Francisco Bay, offering an exquisite take on the traditional yakitori experience. The restaurant exudes an ambiance of understated elegance, where the meticulous craft of grilling is on full display. Patrons are treated to a meticulously curated tasting menu featuring an assortment of skewers that showcase the versatility of chicken.

Each dish is a testament to the skillful use of binchotan charcoal, which infuses the meat with a delicate smokiness. The Tsukune, a succulent chicken meatball, is a crowd-pleaser, enveloped in a savory glaze that harmonizes perfectly with the tender, flavorful meat. Adventurous diners revel in the Tebasaki, chicken wing skewers that are simultaneously crispy and juicy, reflecting the precision of the yakitori master's technique.

The menu also offers an exploration of lesser-known cuts, such as the crispy and rich Chicken Oysters, which are often considered a hidden delicacy by poultry connoisseurs. The Chicken Thigh skewers, known for their perfect balance of lean meat and flavorful fat, are impeccably seasoned and grilled to a tender finish.

Each bite at Hina Yakitori is an invitation to savor the refined flavors and the culinary journey through the umami-rich world of chicken, all while being swept up in the vibrant energy of San Francisco Bay's dining scene.
