★★★★★ 5.0 Becca Borg · Oct 2025

Went tonight and It was such a pleasant surprise in every way. Highly recommend! First course teapot mushroom soup, warm sake, lobster rangoon. Too good, forgot to take pictures. Then Hibachi box (a box of all kinds of neat things!) and tuna steak. The tuna steak was amazing and tasted like a normal steak but better. My husband said he hasn't had one so good since he was in a nice restaurant in Japan. Dessert was tempera ice cream. Our server Dylan was so nice and good, I hope we have him when we go again.

We have sushi for our anniversary every year and have been looking for an alternative to Akai Hana since their sushi prices continue to climb. And Tora was great! Sushi rice was nice and firm, sashimi all tasted great, and the tempura was all well done. The basic rolls we ordered had 6 pieces not 8 like you often see while the special rolls were 8 pieces. I often judge nice sushi places by their amaebi, uni, and hotate and Tora definitely passes. They all had a good ocean flavor, not too watery or soft either. Would definitely go again. Went on a Sunday at 5:30 and it wasn't too busy. (Also another benefit to Akai Hana where a reservation is almost required). Is it as good as Akai Hana? Honestly no, but my sashimi plate was $32 not $47 and none of their special rolls are over $20 while mos

This is one of my favorite sushi restaurants. It has the look and feel of a high end steakhouse, but without high end prices. The Sushi is always flavorful and fresh. They also have a pretty big Sushi menu, tons of selections. My wife and I plan on coming back soon!

it was my first time there for lunchwiyh a friendz The food was good and met the expectation with price. The restaurant's setup is kind of a mix of fine dining. You couldn’t really tell that it’s a Japanese restaurant if you don't see the sushi bar. We were there quite a while talking and they just made us feel comfortable. I'd love to go back sometimes. Oh and I love their spicy fried chicken. So delicious.
