This used to be a reasonably priced [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakitori yakitori] restaurant in the Oxo Tower, but it [http://www.caterersearch.com/Articles/2009/01/22/325775/bincho-yakitori-says-its-still-growing-as-oxo-tower.html closed] in January 2009. Their other branch at 16 Old Compton Street in [[Locale Soho|Soho]] is still open at the time of writing. The information below is retained for people who want to know what it used to be like. <div class="old_info"> Serves a wide range of authentic yakitori and kushiyaki, including bits of a chicken (and other animals) that are not often seen on a skewer in the west. Prices per skewer start from about £1.50 and go up to about £2.50. They also do a range of side dishes to accompany the skewers. [[Kake]] and James visited on a Sunday evening just before Christmas 2007. We paid £40 each, but that did include quite a lot of sake (if I've calculated right, the food part was just over £16/person for six skewers each, a bowl of rice each, and a shared dessert). I'd say you want at least six skewers each plus rice. The kitchen is open-plan, so you can watch the chefs grilling your skewers.
