Kushikatsu Esora is the place to find a wide variety of skewers with fresh meats, vegetables and rice. Vegetables that are ripe and in season are selected to accompany seafood, chicken or meat skewers. Whether grilled or fried, each skewer is cooked to perfection in 100 percent canola oil. Located in Akasaka, Japan, Kushikatsu Esora houses a dining area that offers outstanding views of the city. Counter seating overlooks the skyline with floor-to-ceiling windows, while dim, intimate lighting adds to the overall sophisticated ambiance. Kushikatsu Esora also provides a semi-private, quiet dining room that seats up to 10 people, making it ideal for birthday parties, receptions, parties and other moderately sized events.

The omakase course was an amazing flurry of all different types of kushikatsu ranging from veggies, fish to meats. The staff was very kind and helpful to me and my limited Japanese. Definitely coming back when I return to Japan. ありがとう!

Dining here was my family’s first meal when we arrived in Tokyo. We had the 15 Kushikatsu omakase, and the host was very nice. She even afforded us a birthday dessert for my dad. I highly recommend dining here with friends, having a few drinks, and enjoying great food.

The couple that runs this place treats you like you are dining in their home. Wonderful sake poured for us and delicious fresh oysters. Skewers were delicious and good variety.

Dinner was outstanding; the chef and servers were very loving and helpful with the menu translation. I recommend the fixed courses and a la carte is also good. I will be back.

Very friendly staff. They did a great job with language barrier. Highly recommend this place. Great food.
Best meal we had in Tokyo. Wonderful, attentive and super-friendly service, exceptional food (we had the set menu of 11 katsu, which they happily adapted to accommodate a vegetarian), good sake. I would recommend anyone to go there.

Excellent service, very friendly. Everything is fried, however it was very light and not oily. Small and casual. The only negative, one person smoked at the counter and we got the smell of smoke, but only for a minute.

Fantastic night out - so friendly, relaxed and lots of fun. Skewers were great - we left it to them & each one was an experience. Service was delightful & really made the evening.
