Oden and Yakitori Takeshi: A New Culinary Gem in Chofu

On June 5, 2026, the vibrant culinary landscape of Chofu welcomes an exciting new addition: Oden and Yakitori Takeshi. Developed by Always Co., a subsidiary of Hotland Holdings known for popular establishments like Gindaco and Motsuyaki venues, this unique dining spot ushers in the brand's first-ever location in the Chofu area.

A New Style of Izakaya Experience

Oden and Yakitori Takeshi aims to redefine the traditional izakaya setting by blending innovation with classic favorites. This new establishment creatively combines two distinct dashi broths: “Ago Dashi” and “Chicken Dashi”, to craft one-of-a-kind Oden dishes. Guests can look forward to classic ingredients like radishes and eggs alongside seasonal specials, all emphasizing the distinct flavors of the broths, ensuring that every bite is a flavorful experience.

One of the signature offerings is a creative Oden menu that celebrates the essence of fresh, seasonal ingredients. Each dish is prepared with great care and attention to bring out the umami flavors inherent in the ingredients. The meticulous preparation and unique broth combinations promise to deliver a rich culinary experience with every taste.

Yakitori: A Flavorful Journey

In addition to their inventive Oden, Oden and Yakitori Takeshi proudly offers a wide variety of Yakitori. These skewered delights are served in manageable, bite-sized portions, combining 2 to 3 pieces for every selection. The chefs focus on the perfect cooking technique, enhancing the natural taste and texture of each chicken part. Guests are encouraged to savor them plain at first to truly appreciate the flavors, then explore an array of sauces and salts: spicy miso, mustard, yuzu pepper, and three unique salts (ago dashi, kombu, matcha) to enjoy different flavor profiles.

Here’s a sneak peek of what’s on the menu:

• - Negima (3 pieces, salt) - 360 yen (tax included 396 yen)
