Matsukiya at Paragon brings the authentic Japanese tradition of kushiyaki to the fifth floor of this premier Orchard Road shopping centre. Developed by the team behind Sushi Tei, Matsukiya represents an exciting concept focused on traditional Japanese grilled skewers prepared over bincho-tan charcoal, the premium Japanese white charcoal prized for producing consistent high heat without imparting unwanted flavours.
The restaurant distinguishes itself through unwavering commitment to premium ingredients that elevate kushiyaki beyond typical izakaya fare. The kitchen sources hormone-free, cage-free, and antibiotic-free chicken, ensuring meat quality that shines through simple grilling preparation. More luxurious offerings include Miyazaki wagyu ribeye and foie gras skewers, pushing kushiyaki into fine dining territory rarely seen in shopping mall settings.
The bincho-tan grilling method forms the heart of Matsukiyas culinary approach, with each skewer receiving careful attention over the smokeless charcoal. This traditional technique demands skill and timing, as the intense heat quickly sears proteins while maintaining interior juiciness. The result delivers that distinctive charcoal-grilled flavour profile that defines quality Japanese yakitori and kushiyaki.
Located within Paragon at 290 Orchard Road, Matsukiya benefits from the shopping centres upscale positioning and convenient accessibility. The fifth-floor location provides a quieter dining environment compared to basement food courts, suitable for both casual lunches and more relaxed dinner experiences.
For diners exploring Orchard Road who appreciate Japanese grilling traditions executed with premium ingredients, Matsukiya offers a refreshing alternative to the ubiquitous sushi restaurants and ramen shops. The focus on kushiyaki provides an opportunity to experience a specific facet of Japanese cuisine prepared with the expertise and quality standards that define the Sushi Tei group.

It was supposed to be a joyful get together yet it had turned out to be the most unpleasant lunch ever have at paragon outlet.
Food only served after more than an hour and not serving to all.
The whole food serving was frustratingly slow and messy. We were being asked multiple time what we had ordered(all pre-ordered with name and main course name printed on display at the table!)
Receiving more than N times apology from their service crew lead by Jeanette, yet nothing improve. We only see a lost team don’t know what to do with us.
And we were being served a chawanmusi in a teacup!! Totally different when we look at other colleagues table. What an experience.
The unfortunate event continue with serving wrong food, or missing food to be serve on same table.
I feel so bad for my team mate who organised and selected this restaurant.
It’s my first and last time. We are supposed yo have a good time. Indeed unforgettable but no in good way.
If you couldn’t handle big crowd at the same time, don’t take the order.
Food was not bad, but a hard no to go back.

Left Takashimaya but really crowded . Suddenly Matsukiya came to mind and the impromptu visit was so delightful. Peaceful and quiet and superbly enjoyable . The Momo was so good. Oyaku Don was superbly enjoyable that we had one set takeaway as supper for our son. Chicken oyster , and so many yakitori at very affordable pricing but importantly nice …
The service is great and staff are attentive led by their legendary Sally.
However missed the lovely Filipino staff who was off that night.
The chef’s cooking had been consistent and his Oyaku Don is my favourite thus far.
Will be back again and the pte rooms are so ideal. Wife and I sat by the counter which was nice too.
Bee Hia Sim
Had an excellent dining experience! Walked in and was served by the gentlemanly De Mo who patiently introduced the food choices and helped us with our order. The food was delicious and so pleasing to the eyes. The salad was fresh. The chicken and pork chop were our favourites. The squid was a close second. The hot chicken soup was so comforting, taste familiar yet different. Excellent food, awesome service, definitely must try if you are nearby!
Cindy Bernadette Tjumantara
Always a place to go to with my little boy. Try all the Kushiyaki please, they all taste so good. Dont forget the Wagyu Beef, Tontoro Shirataki noodle, the Omelette Rice, the Beef Tongue etc. Nice Sake selections, friendly service ( Dimo and Team ) , very skilful Chef behind the grill! Gonna miss this experience of friendliness, awesome food and vibes when we return to Switzerland LOL
