From smoky yakitori to hearty grilled specialties, Nanbantei of Tokyo offers Japanese comfort food in a warm, laid-back setting — making it a welcome stop for casual meals and relaxed nights out in Bonifacio Global City.
SMOKY, juicy and seriously addictive Yakitori.
Craving smoky, juicy skewers and charcoal-grilled goodness? Nanbantei of Tokyo in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) in Taguig serves flavorful bites fresh off the grill — perfect for a satisfying night out that need not break the bank.
Located along Bonifacio High Street, this longtime Japanese grill brings together smoky yakitori, hearty grilled favorites, warm lighting, and a laid-back atmosphere suited to post-work dinners, casual dates, and catch-ups with friends.
It is cozy, familiar, and relatively easy on the wallet, especially when you build a meal around its selection of skewers. Here are five reasons to keep Nanbantei in your BGC dining rotation.
1. Come for the yakitori
The skewers are at the heart of the Nanbantei experience. Keep things simple with pork yakiniku at P170, ebi kushi yaki at P140 or tsukune at P140. For something more substantial, order the beef garlic yaki at P280.
These small plates are made for sharing, particularly when everyone at the table wants to sample a little of everything.
2. Stay for the grilled specialties
Nanbantei’s revamped menu also brings more substantial plates to the table.
Hamachi Yaki at P990 features grilled yellowtail, while Ribeye Yaki at P1,250 suits a more indulgent dinner. Lighter choices include Maguro Yaki at P550 and Ika Yaki at P250.
Salmon lovers can opt for Shake Yaki at P450 or Shake Kabuto Yaki, priced from P260 to P480, for something richer and more savory.
3. It’s made for lingering
Nanbantei has the kind of atmosphere that invites diners to linger rather than rush through dinner.
Its warm interiors and the energy of the open grill lend the restaurant an easy after-hours feel, whether you are meeting friends or simply winding down after work.
It is casual enough for an everyday dinner, yet still feels like a step above the usual quick meal.
4. No need to overthink the occasion
One of Nanbantei’s biggest draws is its versatility.
Planning a date? It works. Catching up with friends? Even better. Finished shopping in BGC and suddenly hungry? Nanbantei fits the moment, too.
You do not need a special occasion to visit. Sometimes, good food straight from the grill is reason enough.
5. It fits right into BGC
With its Bonifacio High Street location, Nanbantei is an easy stop day or night in BGC.
Come hungry, order a few skewers, add a grilled favorite or two and settle in. It is straightforward Japanese comfort food served in a setting that makes an ordinary night out feel just a little more enjoyable.
