The "Chicken Kaiseki" experience unfolds in every direction, bringing a continuous surprise and delight. Enjoy a skewered dish that redefines the concept of yakitori.

In the upscale dining district of Kitashinchi, you'll find "Yakitori Ichimatsu," where you can enjoy a seasonal "Chicken Kaiseki" experience. The highlight is the yakitori made with the chef's beloved... Hinai Jidori chicken. Skillfully grilled over vibrant red coals, each skewer is a masterpiece. A sprinkle of coarse salt enhances the umami, allowing you to savor the delicate flavor variations. Indulge in this unique course that showcases the chef's distinctive sensibility.

ChefHideto Takeda - A Culinary Explorer Enchanted by Skewers

Born in Osaka Prefecture in 1975, he started working part-time at a yakitori restaurant while still in university. He then spent time honing his skills at a yakitori restaurant in Saga Prefecture. At the age of 23, he returned to Osaka and opened "Sumibi Yakitori Karagarasu" in 1995. Utilizing the skills he had developed and his own talent, he opened "Yakitori Ichimatsu" in Dojima in 2007. Later, he successfully reopened in the current location in Kitashinchi. Many food enthusiasts travel from afar to experience the honest and sincere charm of his skewers, which are made with a serious commitment to the ingredients.

Food "The Ultimate 'Chicken Kaiseki' Harmonizing the Original Umami of Ingredients and the Chef's Sensibility"

At "Yakitori Ichimatsu," only the omakase course is offered. In addition to skewers, seasonal vegetables and small dishes that evoke the changing seasons are served one after another, delighting those who visit. An essential part of this "chicken kaiseki" experience is the selection of fine sake and wines carefully chosen by the owner. Featuring unique brands that are hard to find elsewhere, the collection primarily focuses on sake and wine. I want to indulge in a luxurious time, letting myself relax with the rich aromas of exquisite drinks that further highlight the charm of chicken.

SpaceA Refined Culinary Space with an Air of Elegance

Beyond the noren adorned with pine trees lies a refined space characterized by a black theme. The elegant decor reminiscent of a Japanese restaurant makes one instinctively straighten their back. The central L-shaped counter has a total of eight seats. From any seat, patrons can sincerely observe the chef dedicated to grilling yakitori and fully experience the rich aroma of charcoal. Additionally, there are semi-private rooms for four people at the back of the restaurant, making it appealing for a wide range of occasions, such as business meetings or special celebrations.
