Jinjo

Ask the city's dedicated yakitori hounds where to drop in for a flawless meal, and they’ll point you straight to Jinjo. Intimate, buzzing, flawlessly executed. The vibe here? Pure Tokyo alleyway energy upgraded for the Scotts Road crowd. Masterful binchotan grilling is the main event—think smoky, blistered tebasaki wings, succulent momo, and perfectly charred adventurous cuts like gizzard and Bishop's nose. Beyond the skewers, the kitchen flexes serious culinary muscle. Silky truffle chawanmushi. Stellar gindara miso cod. A truffle wagyu clay pot rice that commands absolute respect. Portions are precise; flavors are massive. The front-of-house staff—often singled out by name by repeat guests—deliver textbook omotenashi hospitality, effortlessly reading the room whether you’re on a romantic date or dining with family. Weekday lunch sets offer staggering value, but weekend nights get fiercely busy—lock in that reservation before you go.
