"The Scene: The Roppongi outpost of this popular yakitori and grill house is packed with young Japanese couples and groups who are there to drink hard. The upside? The food is sensational, and the party crowd mostly adjourns to tables in the back."

"The skewers had the most incredible salty, savoury, smoky flavour. Washed down with an ice-cold beer or two, it was a real treat."

"Located just a few blocks from Roppongi Hills, Jomon Roppongi is a small izakaya that specialises in yakitori (grilled skewered meat). This traditional joint also stocks a good array of sake and shochu for you to indulge in. Choose one of the daily specials for a taste of something a little out of the ordinary."

"Because no trip to Japan would be complete without smelling like the rich, charcoal-edged fumes of proper yakitori, we recommend dropping by Jomon Roppongi for their Momo Negima. The alternating pieces of juicy chicken thigh meat and Japanese leeks – grilled and basted with the cooking style’s signature savoury-sweet sauce – will leave you wanting more."
"So what sets Jomon apart from the other smaller yakitori joints that dot the streets of Tokyo? Located away from the bustling main street of Roppongi, it’s easy to miss this local gem.

But Jomon is the Izakaya experience on another level – a little louder, a bit more communal and meant to be an experience shared with friends. The food is excellent and the beer and sake selection is solid."

"Jomon Roppongi is an Izakaya (Japanese pub) style restaurant and serves some of the best Yakitori located just far enough away from the craziness of the main drag of Roppongi."

"Jomon Roppongi is a small izakaya that serves some of the best yakitori in my opinion! No wonder this place is always packed and the price is really reasonable. This place is a must-try if you are in Tokyo but reservation is absolutely needed, as it is a small restaurant with a limited amount of seating, and it is always full of customers."
