| - So I get it, this is a fairly new place and there are some issues to iron out. Service is very friendly, but definitely lacking. Had to call the waitresses over for every little thing and ask for water twice before finally getting it.
I waited with my friend for the other pair that was joining us, and ordered the brussels sprouts and okra. I understand that they're $1.90 and it's a really low number. But there were only three brussels sprouts halves on a single skewer and three little chunks of okra. Really, it's a brussels sprout and a half on a stick with some sauce, and I don't understand why you'd consider that an order of anything.
When our party arrived, I ordered the Kitsune Udon for $7. It's comprised of three fried tofu dumpling-type pouches filled with udon, which are perfect. They sit in a decent but tiny amount of broth. I would actually call this a fair price, but there's still just something lacking. My friends ordered some skewers, spending around $15-20 each, and were disappointed with the portions. The quality seemed fair, except for the chicken wing, which I was told was "gross". One would need to spend a lot of money in order to be full.
The bill came with four little teensy semi-frozen grapes. We popped over to Tacos Al Asador for a taco-treat afterwards.
I really want to like you, Yakitori Kintori. You're cozy and I like your ambiance, and everyone's so goddamn friendly, but the food just doesn't measure up. I'm sorry.
