Jin Kichi encapsulates the essence of a true Japanese dining experience with its authentic ambience and exceptional culinary offerings. Stepping into this cosy, intimate space, you immediately feel transported to a traditional izakaya, complete with an open grill where skilled chefs meticulously prepare a range of exquisite dishes. The menu is a diverse selection highlighting items like the succulent chicken katsu, meticulously textured udon, and renowned yakitori skewers, all presented with finesse and a dedication to authenticity. Specialty dishes such as the Mikan Dai sashimi feature prominently, offering flavors that arguably rival those found in Japan itself. Despite being on the pricier side, dining here is an opportunity to indulge in a feast that lovers of genuine Japanese cuisine will appreciate. Service is amiable and attentive, though the bustling nature of the restaurant sometimes means a slight wait. Reservations are strongly advised due to its popularity and limited seating, but the experience justifies the effort.
