How to Book Torisawa 22: Reservation Release Day, Phone and Rules (2026)

鳥さわ22 · Nishi-Azabu, Tokyo · Yakitori · Dinner only

How to book this house

Introduction-only in practice: the eight-seat counter takes phone bookings from returning guests on the first business day of each month (two months ahead), and first-timers need a regular's introduction or a history at the Kameido original. The house's own channels disagree: its official site says introduction only, while its Tabelog page says new phone bookings are accepted; our desk checks this directly when you request it.

Introduction only — follow and we tell you if it ever opens to new guests.
