Toukei

This place is a gem! I was looking for a place to get quality food after typical eating hours and this place did not disappoint! Besides the extensive menu, there is a huge selection of whiskey and sake! They even offer a"liquor locker" to store your bottle in the event that you can't finish it! The ambience features traditional architecture and art while the vibe is very laid back and cozy. They play great music and the servers were so very friendly and offered great suggestions! I definitely recommend trying this place. I know we'll be back!

My experience at Toukei last night was lovely. From the ambience, modern interior deco, good service and delicious food it all wowed me! We started off with some seaweed salad, kimchi, pretty standard. The server recommended we try the Fried Burdock Root which he described as being a more flavorful french fry and apparently they had been out for a few months. The texture was more firm than a french fry and had more chew/flavor. I would definitely recommend/eat it again. I've never had a truffle flavored ramen before but it was so flavorful along with the toppings. The chashu was a thick piece that was flavorful and tender, the fat melted nicely and wasn't overbearing. The soft boiled egg was perfectly cooked and marinated as well. The chirashi bowl had 14 pieces of fish which I thought was quite substantial. The octopus was tender and all the fish was very fresh. I'm coming back to try their drinks next (huge selection of japanese whiskeys) and will update!

Always loved coming here, but we had Galvin as our server, made the experience ten times better. Super high energy, super funny, matched all the vibes. Sukiyaki don was amazing as per usual, love the happy hour.

First time coming here and had a really awesome time! We got here before the late dinner crowd came so we got seated immediately which is a plus. Very modern look and perfectly lit for a nice dinner date. Kim took very good care of us. She recommended her the popular ones on the menu and they were very good. The winter silk sake, which we had 2 bottles of, was sweet and smooth. We ordered mostly skewers and a couple of hot appetizers, we were full! Our favorite was the Ribeye Caps, so tender and flavorful! Will definitely come back to try more items in the menu!

I love the awesome dishes they have here. The fact that it's small plates you can try everything. The menu is pictured so it really tempts you to order everything. They become pricey if you over order. Ambiance is nice for date nights, hangouts. Service is usually good, fast and attentive. Everything pictured is 5/5 Very yummy and flavorful. So many dishes. Chicken skin 4/5 Good crunch to add. Can get a bit hard Chicken kaarage 2/5 Kinda hard and batter is chewy. Not the fave. The skewer don 2/5 It was kinda underwhelming.
