Jidaiya 2 is the second branch of the beloved authentic Japanese yakitori chain, located on Street 288 in Phnom Penh's BKK1 district. Like its predecessor, it offers a traditional izakaya experience with an open charcoal grill where chefs prepare skewers, kushi-katsu, and okonomiyaki right before diners' eyes. The menu features genuine Japanese favorites such as miso-glazed dote-katsu, tender chicken hearts, and crispy eggplant, all served at reasonable prices. The atmosphere is casual and lively, attracting a significant number of Japanese expats and locals who appreciate the smoky, authentic flavors.
