Loved this place and will be back again (and again and again)!
Cocktail menu was interesting - love the 'savoury' style cocktails like sashimi-infused martinis and an Old Fashioned with a hint of smoky wagyu beef flavours. The sweeter cocktails were really well balanced without being cloying.
The food was exactly what we like in modern Japanese cuisine. Not fussy or pretentious; just good, clean flavours executed well. Highlights are the Truffle Wagyu and Foie Gras Donburi (which I would like to eat everyday please); the grilled miso eggplant which was unbelievably tasty despite it's simplicity. The homemade sesame ice-cream was so rich and authentic, with that wonderful sesame flavour in every crunchy bite.
I already this is going to be one to watch... can't wait to be back!
The ambience is fabulous and greeted by the friendly staff upon arrival. Great place for gathering and occasions. Thumbs up for Food presentation and its super tasty. My top pick favourite ladies drink TO RI GAMI, dont miss out on the wagyu beef and the foie grass with scallops.
The truffle wagyu. Period.
The moment you enter into Don & Tori's premise, you immediately feel the fusion of old and new, East meets West. It's ambiance is comfortable, and can be suitable for a quiet lunch, or a bustling evening date.
One thing I noticed right away is the quality of the produce. The quality of raw fish should be fussed about, and it apparent that the fish is flown in daily and served fresh. The homemade sesame ice-cream is another show stopper - creamy, crunchy, and just god damn delicious. And again, the truffle wagyu - dear Lord.
If you don't feel like dining and just want a drink, the bar also boasts a creative, delicious menu. The staff are always so friendly, and it's obvious they want all their visitors to leave feeling well taken care of.
Don & Tori is for anyone and can be tailored to any occasion. Excited to go back for another solo lunch date with myself the next time I am in the area!
