Torisho

Saw this popular izakaya, and decided to visit to have something different other than Vietnamese cuisine. There are two floors to this place, and we were seated on the second floor by the grill. First observation is that seating here will be extremely stuffy and hot, as there is a lack of ventilation (just a fan) and the aircon is located far behind at the seated areas for larger groups. We ordered the drinks (grape chu hai + highball) which was ok, quite mid but grape didnt have much alcohol in it so it was a waste. The food stuffs we ordered were also okay, just average grilled stuff but the beef ribs was extremely overcooked but when it was served to us - it was very cold + fatty. Wasn’t edible in our opinion. One thing to note is that this place ALLOWS SMOKING indoors, and we did not notice until the group beside us started to smoke. Overwhelmed with the stench, we had to quickly leave despite us wanting to stay longer to finish up our food. Overall quite a disappointing experience contrary to the reviews here.

Torisho is a restaurant that should NOT BE MISSED when you’re in HCMC. The food is exquisite, the environment is chill, enjoyed the music and the service is amazingly fast. This place is one of the highlights of my travel to Vietnam and I highly recommend it~ You will love every single thing you order.

I’m just in love with this place. My go to spot for yakiniku aka Japanese bbq. The food is delicious, drinks are nice and cold, the vibe is authentic as it can be. A true izakaya experience in the heart of Japanese street in Saigon.

A great Japanese food experience at Torisho inside Little Japan Town Saigon. The space quite small and crowded since opening hours. So you may book a table before arrive. About their culinary, we ordered 5-style sashimi, grilled eel, marinated jellyfish and salmon avocado rolls. All are delicious and the sashimi was so fresh. I could not pick out the best dish during my visit. But marinated jellyfish with cucumber for me is a must-call side dish. Staffs are super friendly and helpful. You can also sit at the bar to see the chefs cook your food eye-to-eye

Great ambience for having cold beers and skewers. Located in the corner, and more spacious than store in the surrounding Friendly staff and speaks English well

AH, Torisho! Where would I be without you? Where would I go after one of today's 3 hours movies at CGV cinemas, which ended at 11pm and I mostly slept through? Where would I go to heal from yet another scathing argument with my partner and at the same time start a Sapporo-fueled new one to keep the night interesting? Where I would I seek shelter from the aggressive street sales of intimate services? AH! Torisho - Good skewers, good small dishes, cozy vibe.

My favorite restaurant in Saigon! This place has a very welcoming atmosphere that I absolutely love. You will likely spend hours here downing delicious Sapporo draft or Sake and eating equally delicious yakitori. The service is absolutely outstanding. I can't say enough good things about this fantastic joint. Last visited 19-Feb-2021.

A cozy Japanese restaurant in the centre of Saigon. The food is cooked before you and it is absolutely delicious! The staff are very attentive and very nice!
