Sapporo Restaurants

  1. Esta

    A giant food court under JR Sapporo Station; one major path to the subway leads right through it. The variety, from yakitori (char grilled skewered meat, usually chicken) and fish cakes to sandwiches and salads, is awe-inspiring, mouthwatering, even overwhelming. Listen for the singsong ' Ikagadeshou~~ka ?' (Take a look?) and you'll know you've arrived.

  2. Kushidori

    A Sapporo-only chain serving a variety of yakitori and grilled vegetables. The place is usually packed with boisterous college kids and 20-somethings. Try the tsukune (chicken sausage) or the okura (okra).
