About Toriya

Toriya in Lower Manhattan offers a memorable dining experience with delicious Japanese food, great service, and a cool, late-night Osaka-inspired ambiance. Known for its perfectly grilled yakitori, the restaurant features a variety of shareable dishes like karaage, okonomiyaki, tteokbookgi (spicy rice cakes), and agedashi tofu. Customers also enjoy the daily specials and discounted drinks during happy hour from 12 to 6 pm, especially for Japanese beer lovers. The food is consistently tasty with generous portions, including large rice bowls like oyakodon and gyudon, and skewers grilled with salt or tare that come with a lemon wedge. The skewers should be eaten quickly as they cool off faster than other dishes. Visitors appreciate the friendly service from a dedicated staff member, and the music—mainly kpop and jpop/rock—creates a lively yet comfortable atmosphere. The decor and music make it a great spot for photos, casual dinners, or relaxing after work. The restaurant also offers vegetarian options, including veggie-only skewers and meat-free main dishes. Overall, Toriya promises a fun and authentic Japanese experience in NYC, perfect for those looking for a whole new yakitori adventure.
