Repeated Client! Thank you Cherie for the assistance for my insurance purchases! She never fails to provide me with 2-3 quotes and provide good advice during the renewals of my motor insurance and is very efficient in reverting back whenever possible! My latest motor insurance renewal took less than an hour to process, providing me with peace of mind and assurance! Thank you sooo much Cherie!

Had this when the chef was still at level 3. The grilled kinki fish was really really really excellent. The rest was very good too - but not as memorable as the kinki. A treat from a friend (who is a regular) - so I didn't feel the pain of the high price point - so can give 5-star without hesitation. But if I was to pay for myself......

KAI Yakitori delivers an exceptional dining experience that centres around expertly crafted yakitori. The skewers, cooked over premium Binchōtan charcoal, bring out the best in a variety of ingredients. From pork and chicken to unique items like ginkgo nuts and chicken cartilage, each bite showcases meticulous preparation and authentic flavours. A standout dish during my visit was their seasonal Shirako (milt), served in a sweet and savoury sauce. The delicate texture of the shirako paired beautifully with the sauce’s complexity, creating an unforgettable experience. While the yakitori was excellent, a dish that took my by surprise was their Oyakodon. This bowl of tender chicken chunks, rich savoury sauce, gooey eggs, umami-packed seaweed, and an additional raw yolk was a symphony of textures and flavours. Every bite was indulgent, and it’s easily one of the best Oyakodon I’ve ever tasted in Singapore. The Sweet Potatoes were fantastic as well, natural caramelisation from the heat of the charcoal and presented elegantly on sticks, such a sweet delight. Although the prices are on the higher side, the quality of ingredients, mastery in preparation, and overall dining experience justify the cost.

A little hidden gem in Orchard plaza. It was highly recommended by a friend & we lucked out and managed to get a reservation. The food was absolutely delicious. A lot more chicken focused which we honestly didn't mind but what absolutely impressed me the most was the vegetables that tasted incredible after being chargrilled! It's mandatory to pair your meal with a bottle of sake but you honestly wouldn't have it any other way either. The team were extremely sweet and even though it was our first time, both Chef and service team were friendly. Definitely a must-visit if you're a Yakitori fan.

Very expensive and overpriced place. Not worth it at all. Total bill was 2400sgd for 6 people. Each of us paid 400sgd for Yakitori : mushroom, quail egg, chicken, asparagus, tofu, vegetables etc… It’s not a fine dining restaurant and there were NO expensive ingredients such as caviar, truffles, foie gras or uni. Yeah.. there was a crab. Crab Porridge. That's all. Food was good but not fantastic. Overall ambience was cozy but not luxurious or fancy. I have had dinner with my friends in the private room and staff said it’s ’Omakase’ However, we were charged per stick. And, there was a ‘restaurant alcohol policy’ that every 2 persons had to order 1 bottle of alcohol. We were total 6pax which means we had to order 3 bottles. Keep in mind, most sake bottles are 750ml. No matter what, if you are pregnant, breastfeed, sick or cannot drink, you still have to order a bottle of sake or wine per every 2pax. Staff said you can bring a bottle home if you cannot drink it. What a rip off !!! I still do not understand why I had to pay so much for an average Yakitori meal which was not even special. Well.... Some people still think this place is good or better than other yakitori restaurants in Singapore. Fine. I won't stop you from trying it out. But get ready to be shocked when receiving a bill.

4.5 stars! Kai Yakitori is one that won’t disappoint and will have you coming back for more. The place is cosy and the hospitality fantastic. Watching Chef Jeffrey grill the skewers over binchotan was pretty mesmerizing; I’m not sure if it was the anticipation of the food or just simply watching the process. Predominantly chicken and vegetables, Chef Jeffrey also had beef, pork, seasonal produce and staples to serve. My faves of the night were the chicken sashimi, chicken oyster, nodoguro and the broth (boiled for min. 12 hours daily) made for his ramen. Food aside, he’s got a small but fab collection of sake. Shiok Maximus! 🤤

They used to be very good and I was a return customer, but they changed their menu to Omakase. Omakase should give you a good fine dining experience, this is way under expectation with little effort made. They practically just serve u diff parts of the chicken the whole night, with not much brief on the dishes or given a menu to start with. Sake is very expensive, whole meal is just not worth it. $660 for 2 pax just to eat chicken.

Where Yakitori is an art. Watching Chef-owner Jeffery Chai at work is captivating as he moves smoothly with an easy confident precision. And each skewered item that comes off his Wakayama Kishu Binchotan grill is so breathtakingly perfect, every first bite will leave you gasping in wonder. Before I go on, I should mention that a reservation at @kaiyakitorisg is impossible to secure unless you know a regular customer who decides to invite you along (so yes, I owe my friends a huge thank you). Ordering alcohol is a must here and even though I can’t drink much, I have to admit yakitori and alcohol are a match made in gastronomic heaven. We shared a wonderful bottle of Sake but I was told they do super legit Highballs too, so those are on my wishlist now. As this was our first ever visit, I did go a bit mad with the ordering. Here’s a recap: 1. Steamed Japanese Pumpkin - The appetiser warmed our bellies nicely with its gently sweet softness. 2. Seasonal Vegetable - The Yellow and White Corn were ridiculously juicy and sweet. 3. Japanese Tofu - Lightly grilled, the slightly firm beancurd was lovely. 4. Avocado and Smoked Chicken with Baguette ($12) - This left my jaw on the floor. I couldn’t and still can’t fathom how much smokiness and flavour existed in the pale green mess. 5. Soriresu / Chicken Oyster ($6.50) - We each had one of the pair of oyster-shaped dark meat flanking the backbone of the chicken. Sensuously smooth, tender and oh-so-juicy, Chef Jeffrey’s grilling ensured the skin was unbelievably crisp as well. 6. Chicken Thigh and Scallions - I’ve never eaten this elsewhere that can rival the exquisiteness of theirs. 7. Wings - Plump and golden-brown, the crispy-skinned mid-joints had me craving for more. 8. Hearts - These were hands-down, the juiciest and most tenderly cooked of the chicken’s organ I’ve ever eaten. 9. Bonjiri / Tails - How a piece of springy flesh where a chicken’s tail-feathers spring from can become so fantastically delicious in Chef’s hands is beyond me. I fell truly, madly, deeply in love and had to get a second round. 10. Japanese Zucchini - This was stellar. 11. Cherry Tomatoes - They gushed under the lightest pressure. Yums. 12. Eringi - Smoky and meaty, the King Oyster Mushrooms were so good. 13. Quail’s Eggs ($6.50) - These babies were lusciously lava-like in the middle. 14. Tsukune - Looser-packed but highly textural giant meatball that’s so pure in tastiness, it didn’t need the usual egg yolk for dipping. 15. Kawa / Skin - Chef Roy did a little trick of fanning the skewers after they were grilled. It’s suppose to help the remaining oil and moisture to evaporate, and thus, dry the pieces of skin more and render them extra crispy. I can vouch for the effectiveness. 16. Ramen Awase ($10) - The white chicken soup was so decadently rich, it left my lips sticky. I loved the noodles with a smidgen of yuzu kosho mixed in. The Oyako Don looked really mouthwatering too - I’ll have to get that on my next visit. 17. Sasami / Chicken Fillet - Chef Jeffery grilled the meat until only about 30% cooked, so the pretty pink chunks of meat were velvety soft and yielding. Remarkable! I am sure besides Chef’s expert technique and experience, the very expensive Japanese Binchotan he uses at Kai Yakitori contributes significantly to the superior quality and taste of the food. When I examined it closely, it felt very clean to the touch (no reside was left anywhere) and had a metallic sound when I hit one piece against another. Thank you so much again for spoiling us with your elevated art of Yakitori, Chef. This is a dinner I will be raving about for a long time to come.
