From a reviewer’s perspective, the menu at The Cave Yakitori Bar at 319 B Queen Street offers a well-rounded and approachable Japanese-inspired selection that leans heavily into sharing plates and grilled skewers. The SET MENUS stand out as the most convenient way to experience the restaurant, with options like Couples Set Tanuki X The Cave, Family Set (Feeds 4 People) Tanuki X The Cave Together, and the Vegetarian Set Tanuki X The Cave, all designed around group dining and variety. The KUSHIAGE section brings a crispy, skewered dimension with items such as Kumara, Scotch Fillet Steak, Tender Chicken Thigh MeatCheese, and Squid, offering a mix of hearty and lighter bites. In the YAKITORI selection, the grill-focused skewers include highlights like Grilled Rice Ball With Soy Sauce, Tender Chicken Thigh, Chicken Skins, Chicken Hearts, and Chicken Tenderloin W/Cheese, which together emphasize classic izakaya-style comfort flavors. The SALADS & SIDES provide balance with dishes such as Small Bowl Of Steamed Rice, Spinach, Bacon Tomato Salad (A Cave Classic), Fresh Cabbage With Mayo, Takoyaki Octopus Balls, and Popcorn Chicken, making it easy to mix fresh, fried, and savory options. For something more filling, the DONBURI section includes rice bowls like Chicken Donburi and Steak Donburi, rounding out the menu with satisfying mains. Overall, the menu feels designed for sharing, grazing, and pairing skewers with comforting sides rather than focusing on individual plated fine dining.
