Yakitori at Union Sushi + Barbeque Bar

Izakayas and robata grills have been popping up all over town the last few years and it's easy to understand why. The skewers are perfect complements for after-work drinks, allowing diners to have a light snack or full meal. Union Sushi + Barbeque Bar is one of those casual spots specializing in the art of Japanese barbecue, offering many different types of meats grilled over a 600 degree open flame.

Selections include everything from chicken thighs, spare ribs and beef filets to more exotic game like kangaroo and alligator. So if you're looking for the rarer variety of meats on sticks, Union has what you need.
