KokkoB+

509 2nd Ave, San Mateo, CA 94401 · Yakitori restaurant, Chicken restaurant, Japanese restaurant · San Mateo

Cozy yakitori-izakaya with standout skewers and small plates; expect small portions, occasional pacing hiccups, and solid value if you order strategically.

Why this grade

Kokko delivers solid food quality anchored by exceptional charcoal-grilled yakitori and karaage, supported by attentive service and a genuine izakaya atmosphere. However, inconsistent execution on temperature and doneness prevents a higher grade, while small portions and modest space comfort limit broader appeal. A reliable neighborhood favorite rather than a destination standout.

One caveat: Expect small portions; order several items to feel full
