YAYOI Palo Alto

Grilled Mackerel Teishoku (Saba Shioyaki)

Salt-grilled mackerel with crispy, blistered skin and clean, lightly oily flesh — served with rice, miso soup, and pickles in the classic set format

Miso-Simmered Mackerel Teishoku (Saba Misoni)

Mackerel braised in sweet-savory miso until the flesh pulls apart easily, with a deeply caramelized glaze

Hamburg Steak Teishoku

Dense, juicy ground beef patty sizzled on a cast-iron plate with your choice of demi-glace or Japanese ponzu sauce — more umami-forward than any American burger patty

Chicken Karaage Teishoku

Juicy bite-sized fried chicken with a craggy, ginger-soy-marinated crust — one of the more popular sets for good reason

Tonkatsu Teishoku

Breaded pork cutlet fried to a clean golden crust, served with shredded cabbage and tangy tonkatsu sauce alongside the standard set accompaniments

Oyakodon

Chicken and egg simmered in a dashi-soy broth and ladled over rice — straightforward, comforting, and well-executed for the price
