So I decided to give this place a try after reading other Yelper's visit. Toshi Ryoriten got really nice decor. And I agree with other posts, finally a Japanese places uptown!
Let's start off with venue, it is very nicely decorated and very clean. At the entrance has this classic Japanese style wooden door like motif. And once you get inside is more modern and nicely lit.
Onto the food... Not bad, not too over powering in terms of flavour. My friend and I ordered a marinated cod (Gindara), spicy salmonl, yellow-tail and green onion (Negihamachi) plus rainbow rolls plus the shiitake mushroom stuffed with surimi shrimp paste (Shiitake Shinjo). The food aren't bad, as I mentioned the flavour isn't overpowering. The fish was quite fresh. And the texture of the rice does have certain authentic Japanese sushi rice taste.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is casual and not too loud, where one can have a conversation with a date. The servers aren't bad, they tend to me as often as they could given the busy schedule they have.
