“Really enjoyed our visit to High Yaki! The Unlimited 8-option BBQ is great value at just £22.8pp, with a good selection of meats to choose from. We also tried the Aburi A5 Wagyu Tempura Shrimp Roll, Volcano Eel Roll and Soy Ramen. The sushi rolls were definitely the highlight—fresh, flavourful and delicious! The ramen came in a generous portion too. A great spot if you’re looking for BBQ with plenty of other dishes on the menu. Would happily visit again!”

“Really enjoyed my meal here. The quality of the meat was impressive, especially the beef tongue, beef belly, and skirt steak. Everything tasted fresh, and the all-you-can-eat menu was worth the price. We were already full after one round because the portions were so generous. Highly recommend if you’re looking for good Japanese BBQ in Chinatown!”
