Renaming Announcement: A New Chapter for Toriyaki Niku Kakoi

The renowned restaurant ‘Toriyaki Niku Kakoi’, operated by Harapeko Co., Ltd. in the heart of Minato, Tokyo, is set to undergo a significant identity transformation. Starting January 1, 2026, the beloved chicken grill spot will officially be known as ‘Toriyaki and Torinabe Kakoi’. This change is not just a rebranding; it symbolizes the restaurant's evolution towards a greater culinary experience.

The Essence of Toriyaki and Torinabe Kakoi

Under the aegis of Michelin-star Chef Yoshitomo Ishii from the acclaimed ‘Tori Sho Ishii’ in Osaka, alongside the dynamic culinary activist and CEO, Emoto Mitomi, Toriyaki and Torinabe Kakoi specializes in exquisite poultry dishes located in the vibrant district of Roppongi. The core offering revolves around the enjoyment of grilled chicken, presented in a casual yet sophisticated ambiance, further elevated by the introduction of a highly praised chicken hot pot (torinabe) that debuted in the fall of 2025.

Renowned Chicken Hot Pot

The chicken hot pot, which has garnered much acclaim, is a testament to the restaurant’s commitment to quality and flavor. The broth, simmered for over six hours, is rich in umami and collagen derived from high-quality local chicken. This wholesome dish not only warms the body but also comforts the soul during the colder seasons, making it a must-try for visitors and locals alike.

Dining Experience in a Beautiful Oasis

Step into a stunningly designed space that transcends the hustle and bustle of city life. The open layout, featuring 46 seats arranged around a cozy sunken hearth, creates an inviting atmosphere for social gatherings and intimate meals. The expansive windows offer breathtaking views of the surrounding trees, with the cherry blossoms in spring providing a picturesque backdrop that enhances the dining experience.

Guests are encouraged to gather around the hearth with friends and family, indulging in both grilled chicken and expertly crafted side dishes by skilled chefs who are truly passionate about chicken. Moreover, the restaurant provides flexibility for group bookings and has a projector for special events, allowing for a customized celebratory atmosphere.
