Basic Information

Three Things to Look For in a Yakitori Restaurant in Thonglor

Thonglor has no shortage of Japanese restaurants. When you're narrowing down a yakitori spot specifically, these three points usually matter most.

1. Charcoal-Grilled Yakitori, Skewer by Skewer

At Sumibi Hirashima, every skewer is grilled to order over binchotan charcoal. Expect the smoky aroma only charcoal delivers, along with the distinct texture and umami of each chicken part. Most skewers can be ordered with salt or tare sauce, so you can match them to your drink or your taste.

2. Whether Private Rooms Are Available

For business dinners or entertaining, having a private room matters. Many restaurants are counter-only, so it's worth checking in advance. We have 5 private rooms, plus a separate banquet room for up to 24 guests.

3. The Sake and Shochu Selection

What you drink alongside yakitori changes the whole meal. We select sake and shochu to match the food, including seasonal and hard-to-find labels.

Recommended by Occasion

Business Dinners and Entertaining

A quiet private room where yakitori, sashimi, small dishes and drinks all come together. Japanese staff are on site, so even detailed requests can be handled in Japanese. There are 5 private rooms, but space is limited — advance reservations are recommended.

Solo Diners and Couples

At the 14-seat counter, you can watch the charcoal grill up close and take in its aroma. Skewers are served fresh off the grill, one at a time, so you can take your time. Rooms for 2 guests are also available.

Larger Groups

A banquet room for up to 24 guests is available separately. Great for company gatherings, farewell parties and group get-togethers.
