Yakitori Boy is probably best known for its upstairs Karaoke bar. Lots of fun can be had singing the night away. However, recently I discovered just how delicious some of their food offerings are as well.

To be honest, their menu is a bit overwhelming. Lots of choices from a variety a styles. If you 'don't know what you're hungry for', you might be in trouble. On the flip side, if you like a spread, you will be set.

We opted to mix and match. We ended up with a salad, a few skewers, sushi, tempura, and even a beef dish. I'll highlight my experience, but recommend you experiment on your own a bit too.

We wanted a salad and they all looked good, so had a dish that had a little of everything in the California Soba Salad. Portioned big enough to share for two or small enough to be taken down solo, I loved the crab and seaweed mixed with the soba noodles.

I feel skewers are a personal preference dish. However, you really should try the chicken skin (so crisp). We also had the bacon and quail egg and chicken heart skewers. I like how you can easily order individuals skewers until you fill up.

Their sushi game was on point. The he-man roll with crab was on the specials list and amazing. The sensei's sashimi was great as I was expecting the standard tuna, salmon, white fish but instead got so more unique fair (along with Ika and Octopus). Just check my photo.
Absolutely get the Negi Toro, two pieces priced to move!

Rounding our dinner out, the soft shell crab tempura was breaded perfectly. The beef negimaki was good and plentiful. Honestly, portions for all the dishes were great.

I'll leave you with a pair of key words: Happy Hour. Lychee-tini for $6?!? Yes please. Plenty of food specials for HH as well. It runs 5 to 7pm so check it out to save a bit of dough!
