At the yakitori restaurant "Torina," the chicken sashimi and the 10 skewers of grilled chicken are particularly exquisite, offering a fluffy and juicy texture. The chicken eaten with rock salt and the spicy ginger ale were especially well-received.
The counter seating only, with a style that surrounds the kitchen, creates a friendly atmosphere, and the charm lies in being able to enjoy a meal while taking in the night view.
This popular restaurant is usually fully booked during visits, and reservations are recommended. They offer courses with all-you-can-drink options, and it's well-regarded for its good cost-performance with a variety of beverages to enjoy.
I visited a yakitori restaurant that opened between Tenjimbashisuji Rokuchome and Tenma.🐔
The restaurant is called "Torina" and is located on the 3rd floor of a building, between Hankyu and Osaka Metro's Tenjimbashisuji Rokuchome Station and JR Tenma Station.🚃
Since I went at night, the night view was beautiful.🌃
There were only counter seats with seating arranged around the kitchen.✨
I ordered the 5000 yen course plus an all-you-can-drink course for 7000 yen.🐔
