A Michelin star that is. There are several star-awarded yakitori joints in Tokyo but this one is way out of central Tokyo in a more, for lack of better word, funky neighborhood of Kinshicho where my colleague and I had work to attend to and we happened to stumble upon it without knowing it had a star though I did some checking right before we went looking for a place to eat and knew that it had a high score on a user generated restaurant guide.
The food was great with pleasant and attentive service but when you compare this to a French restaurant with a star, you start wondering where does Michelin set its standards? Difficult to tell but this was OK, I was happy. Oh, and they only serve the after-dinner ice cream to women. ^^
