Izakaya Tori is a lively Japanese "street food" restaurant known for quick and tasty finger foods and small plates. Popular dishes include pork tonkatsu, beef bowl, and various sushi rolls. The bluefin tuna sampler and yellowtail carpaccio are highly recommended. They serve hot sake, Japanese beer, and a variety of cocktails. Service is quick, and the sake selection is impressive. Arriving early for dinner is advised, as the restaurant tends to get busy quickly.
The restaurant is a great place for sharing family-style meals. The portions are generous, making it easy to try different dishes. The seaweed salad is crispy, salty, and refreshing, while the sushi is consistently excellent. The restaurant is attentive to dietary needs, offering gluten-free soy sauce for those with celiac disease. The Thai tea is also a popular choice among customers.
Customers praise the attentive and pleasant wait staff. The sushi rolls are very good, with an impressive variety beyond just sushi. Many mention that the food is delicious and reasonably priced. Although wait times can be a little long and the waiting area crowded, the overall experience is highly positive. The place is often packed, and parking can be difficult, so arriving early is recommended.
Izakaya Tori stands out among other sushi and Japanese restaurants for its quality and atmosphere. The fries are known for their crispness and texture, and the karaage features crispy skin that is unmatched. The eel dish is not fishy, and both dry and wet curry and ramen never disappoint. Despite being small and busy, the kitchen and servers keep the place running smoothly, ensuring a good dining experience.
