1st June 2011 A good friend brought us to Mr Yakitori about 3 months ago and we have been dining there faithfully since, in fact almost weekly! Coming from Singapore, we are very discerning where food is concerned. We have never been disappointed with the food at Mr Yakitori. Daniel, the chef and owner, always ensures consistency and quality of food. We love the tender chicken thigh and beef fillet yakitoris. The lamb, tiger prawn and salmon yakitoris are really good too. My kids love the bacon & banana yakitori. A must have each visit: the grilled eggplant and courgette, yummy! Now if you are brave enough for grilled chicken heart, Mr Yakitori IS THE PLACE to have it, succulent with the right amount of 'bite'. Other favourites: the deep fried whole flounder, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Indeed, the grilled squid must be the best in Auckland! The pork or chicken Katsu Don with homemade sauce is truly original and highly recommended. Best!
Mr Yakitori is the newest Japanese Yakitori and Sake bar to hit Auckland city. Nestled beneath the street level you will find an authentically styled Yakitori house. It's a fantastic place for all Japanese food lovers to enjoy great food and escape the busyness of the city. Like all good Japanese restaurants, only the freshest ingredients are used and most of the produce is sourced daily from local markets. Great sauces are key to a good Yakitori restaurant. Daniel, our head chef, creates some exceptional taste bud tantalizers to please your pallet and what better to compliment your Yakitori meal than our wide selection of sake or an ice-cold beer?
We would be honoured to host you at your next Japanese Yakitori/Sake Bar experience. Arigato

23rd May 2011 Saw some of these reviews so went there last night... TOTALLY worth it. the people serving us were cool as... Ive got some Asian mates that rave about sake, so when we went here i thought I'd better try some - AMAZING!!! lol... plus real gold flakes!! i had the chicken katsu and some skewers and WOW that chef can cook good meat! the beef was tender and was so good. the Katsu was great as well... decent size as well. then came the deserts... would recommend the banana and ice-cream! DIVINE!
the entrance would be the weirdest thing as it feels your about to go into a dairy but once inside, you feel away from the stress and hustle of the city center. worth going at ANYTIME!
if you don't know what to have for a drink... try the plum wine... you'll be able to sip on that stuff for HOURS its that good.
ENJOY!

16th May 2011 Great food and atmosphere! The yakitori was delicious and the portions of the main dishes are very generous. The restaurant and food seem very authentically Japanese and the staff were very friendly. Will definitely be going back again!

11th May 2011 I've eaten a few times here now and decided this place really deserved a good review. Friendly staff and great tasting food! I've had some excellent seafood and chicken katsu dishes so far, highly recommended. Cheers, Rich.
