Addressing the Anxiety of Dining Out with Allergies
Is this ingredient safe for me? Does it contain hidden allergens? Many customers harbor such anxieties when eating out. Concerns about unseen factors, such as seasonings not listed on the menu or cross-contamination during the cooking process, can be endless.
At our restaurant, we deeply understand these concerns and believe that alleviating them is part of the quality of the Otsu yakitori we provide. We prioritize the health and safety of our customers above all else. Our entire staff is highly conscious of this, working diligently every day to ensure you can simply enjoy the taste of our food and have a wonderful time without any anxiety.
We have implemented concrete measures so you can safely enjoy a meal with your precious family and friends at our establishment.
Our Allergy-Friendly Approach to Enjoying Otsu Yakitori
We take a multi-faceted approach to allergen safety so that our customers can confidently enjoy our Otsu yakitori and other dishes. Here are our three main pillars of support.
Thorough Pre-visit Consultation and Information Sharing
Informing Us at Reservation is Recommended: If you have an allergy, we strongly recommend informing us when you make your reservation. This allows us to prepare in advance and provide a smoother service upon your arrival.
Detailed Inquiries: We will carefully ask for specific details about the type of allergy, the severity of symptoms, and which ingredients are safe versus which must be avoided. Providing as much detail as possible helps us propose the best menu for you.
Ensuring Staff-Wide Communication: The information we receive is promptly shared with all relevant employees, from the kitchen staff to the service staff. This ensures that from the moment you are seated, our service is based on your allergy information.
Careful Ingredient Selection and Meticulous Cooking Processes
Selection of Omi Chicken and Seasonings: We thoroughly manage allergen information for all our ingredients, from our prized Omi chicken to the vegetables and individual seasonings we use. We check information from our suppliers to confirm the absence of specific raw materials and select only safe items.
Cross-Contamination Prevention in the Kitchen: When preparing allergy-friendly meals, we take extreme care, such as using dedicated cooking utensils and cutting boards. We also separate the storage of allergenic and non-allergenic ingredients and have established procedures to prevent mixing during the cooking process. For our Binchotan-grilled skewers, if a specific sauce or tare contains an allergen, we can be flexible and prepare a separate one for you.
Allergy-Friendly Hakata-Style Mizutaki: We can also adjust the soup stock ingredients and other components of our famous Hakata-style mizutaki to accommodate your allergies. For example, if you have an allergy to certain seafood or soy products, we can suggest alternatives upon consultation.
Developing Allergy-Friendly Menus and Flexible Individualized Service
Menus with Specific Allergens Removed: Based on prior consultation, we can provide special menus that remove specific ingredients according to your allergies. For instance, we can accommodate requests for wheat-free yakitori sauce or dairy-free desserts to the best of our ability.
A Made-to-Order Approach: Every customer's situation is unique. Therefore, in addition to adjusting existing menu items, we may sometimes prepare a special dish just for you. This stems from our strong desire for every guest to enjoy our Otsu yakitori in the best possible way.
Always Listening to Our Customers: We place great value on feedback from our customers. If you have any opinions or requests regarding our allergy accommodations, please do not hesitate to speak with a member of our staff. We are constantly striving to improve in order to provide even better service.

Reconfirm Upon Arrival: After you arrive and are seated, or when you place your order, please inform the staff again about your allergies. This is a final precautionary check to ensure there have been no changes since your reservation.
