Hikone, a beautiful lakeside city in Shiga Prefecture. After soaking in the magnificent view of Hikone Castle and the grand nature of Lake Biwa, many of you might feel like relaxing with some delicious food. For all of you, we highly recommend Yakitori Torimaru Hikone, located on the first floor of the Hikone Station Building, directly connected to Hikone Station. As an authentic yakitori restaurant where you can fully enjoy Shiga's prized brand of chicken, Omi chicken, we are beloved not only by locals but also by the many tourists who visit Hikone.
You'll taste the difference in just one bite of our skewers, carefully grilled over Binchotan charcoal.

Bringing the In-Store Experience Closer and More Freely to You
At Yakitori Torimaru Hikone, we value a vibrant atmosphere and meticulous attention to detail to ensure our customers can fully enjoy their meal.

We aim to be a welcoming place for first-time visitors, with friendly and polite service, making you feel as comfortable as if you were at home.
However, modern lifestyles are diverse. Some may not have the time to enjoy a leisurely meal at a restaurant. For families with small children, dining out can often feel challenging. Tourists who have spent a full day enjoying Hikone Castle or leisure activities around Lake Biwa might prefer to relax and have a delicious meal at their hotel or inn. And sometimes, there are nights when you're relaxing at home watching a movie and find yourself craving a professional's touch in your food.
It is precisely in these moments—when you want to visit but can't—that we believe our takeout and delivery services can be of great help. We deliver the exact same authentic yakitori made with Shiga's Omi chicken, carefully grilled over Binchotan charcoal, to your preferred location. While the experience in our lively restaurant is certainly special, we hope that through takeout and delivery, our flavors can become a part of your daily life, bringing joy and excitement to various occasions.
