We provide casual dining table service to customers and employ a server staff to take orders and deliver food.

One of the most important aspects of sushi is the way customers interact with the chef. At our sushi bar we offer Omakase: the customer leaves it up to the chef prepare one piece of fish at a time, which is seasonal, elegant, artistic, and uses the finest ingredients available.

Real sushi takes a lot of time from the chef dedication and passion.
Torii has it secrets of rice preparation and demystify the seafood sashimi grade that is suitable for raw consumption. The menu consist of hot and cold tastings. Along with sushi, sashimi, yakitori, and tempura. Features dry ages such as beef, fish, and poultry. Omakase based on seasonal items. Customize customers' orders according to preferences and food allergy considerations.

Amazing dinner at Torii! Fantastic food, great interaction with the chef, and nice drinks. Highlights: black throat perch, shiromi mushi, fried softshell crab, maguro tataki, and foie gras! Uchi level Japanese restaurant in Katy!

We did their omakase and wow, some of the best sushi I have ever had. Every single thing we tried was amazing. And the service was very impressive as well. Will definitely be back and highly recommend to anyone looking for a good sushi spot in the Houston area.

Simple… go check this place out. Ambience was elegant and tasteful, it paired really well with the food and drinks. Service was top notch and knowledgeable about their menu. Their prices were fair in most cases and paired well with the high quality execution of the food. Food was stunning. We got the wagyu hot rock, hamachi appetizer, a few nigiri options (hirame was so smooth and just melted in your mouth), and two rolls. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience and hope this place continues to shine. They did go out their way to make a table marker with our names and have us a little treat to help celebrate our recent engagement! Definitely coming back many times.

The food was tasty and fresh. Service was friendly. The restaurant served really good food in a average restaurant environment. There was not much ambiance to the place. It was like any other restaurant in a strip mall. Portions were very small, we ordered a lot of dishes, paid a lot of money and still went away hungry. We actually walked down to another place nearby and ate more food.

Food was exquisite. Unique japanese food with some Thai and Vietnamese influences. Phuong ( not sure if she was the manager) was very sweet and knowledgeable. Every dish was fresh with delicious flavors. my family and I ate here for Mother’s day dinner. We had the tempura soft shell crab, scallop, wagyu hot rock beef, wagyu skewer, peking duck, chicken karaage, and brussel sprouts. Also had my favorites the Hawaiian Wahoo, butter scallop, nigiri flounder, hama chili and mushroom nabe. we ate alot! will definitely come again.
