Uda

Uda’s menu features 70 items and counting, most of which are varieties of Japanese grilled skewers. Yakitori, or chicken skewers, may be more widely known but seafood and pork served on a stick, kushiyaki, are more popular here at Uda. The owner of Uda opened the restaurant after learning the ropes from a renowned yakitori restaurant in Japan, and has established Uda as Itaewon’s favorite izakaya alongside Muntaro. Thankfully, both restaurants are in close proximity—if one is full, simply walk a few steps down to the next one.
