Torien Services

I wish I could give this place more stars. Our experience here was exceptional. We came in to celebrate a birthday and it was our first time trying Yakatori. The 2.5 hour time we spent here was absolutely magic to our tastebuds. Each course was paced out so well we were able to enjoy each bite without feeling rushed. The atmosphere felt intimate and the chefs proudly explained each piece to us which I swear made it even more delicious.

You can tell how much heart they put into each course. Our server, Noon - outstanding service. The host/manager - so kind and immediately made us feel welcomed the moment we walked in. Thank you to everyone there who made our time here memorable. The birthday candle to the complimentary - we appreciated the extra mile. 11/10.

Yakitori so good, you'd think you were in Tokyo. Great sake list, and attentive/friendly staff, the biggest surprise for me was the tori paitan ramen, one of the best bowl's I've ever had.

Amazing experience with amazing head waiter who made the experience immensely fun and delicious. Set menus with moderate pricing and absolutely wonderful cocktails. Luckily someone got rain checked and I didn't have to wait two weeks for a reservation. Chicken cartilage is peak yum. Super tender grilling that keeps meat immensely juicy

Another small place with excellent food and service. First I had the Duck salad, nicely balanced flavors. The food is cooked in a 1000 degree charcoal grill. The Thigh was nicely flavored and you can add a little be of the two spices provided. the cartilage, I tried it with and without the spices and it was crunchy but delicious. Broccoli nicely grill with a little of salt and lemon. Hearts didn't have that much of the iron taste which usually has, was really good.

Sugar Snap Peas, zucchini were good. Neck skin was really crispy, (you only get one side, unable to reorder this one). The wings and the quailed eggs were really tasty. so many dishes, we ordered four more side, gizzard, tail, liver and shoulder were amazing. The meatball and the Ramen were oishi. I want to go back.

Simply exquisite. One of my good friend went there before and he said he liked it so much. Knowing how picky he is, it got me curious even with Torien's high price range. So I tried and no regret, might as well come here more. As a non-professional's guess, I think what they do extremely well is 1. fire it well at perfect balance for the yakoyori and 2. season it perfect, not too much, not too little.

When said or written, it sounds super simple and nothing special, but I think those are what makes their menu so great and bring it to uncharted territory (at least for me). Each menu itself and overall course was so well arranged for their taste. I was already quite sure that I would give 4 stars to here due to my picky friend's review. But I feel I'm obliged to give them 5 given how much I enjoyed.

Do not want to say more - food was absolutely orgasmic. After you tried the entire menu, try to use all your a la carte quota on the off menu items. You can find chicken parts that other ordinary yakitori places do not have. All I can say is: be adventurous! Thanks chef and thank you to all the staff there for the wonderful food and service. Dining alone feels so comfortable here.

Incredible. Cannot recommend this omakase enough. We arrived a little early for a 05:30pm reservation and killed time at Tom & Jerry's (cash only) bar until the doors opened. Everyone from front of house to the chefs preparing the meal were absolutely wonderful people. My fiance and I have done plenty of omakase meals before in Portland and stupidly set our expectations slightly lower than the places we had eaten at before (Nodoguro, Le Pigeon), but we're absolutely blown away by all the dishes prepared for us.

We would 100% return for the exact same meal paying the exact same prices; it was that good. Thank you all for your incredible work at your craft, we cannot recommend this place enough!

What an unique and lovely experience! We went there for my birthday celebration and absolutely had a great time! It was a bit pricey but definitely worth trying. The service was good and the flavor from charcoal was amazing. I wish they have a bit more variety on the menu but totally understand it's supposed to be "Tori" (chicken) themed. Overall, a good place if you want to have a low key, relaxing and fun time!

Want to transport yourself back to Japan?! Here ya go! Simply the best Chicken Skewers you will experience. Perfection. This is about caramelization and textures and so much more. Wonderful Sake to match as well. Service and experience are as good as it gets.

I only wish there were more stars to give - 5/5 simply doesn't convey how incredible the food, ambience and team at Torien truly are. Every detail is so precise, intentional, impeccably planned and executed in each course of omikase. The decor and ambience are minimalist but rich as is the yakitori. Torien is a unique, rare gem. No number of stars will do, but a few from Michelin would be a good start.

Have used Torien for multiple jobs over the last few years! They have always been reliable, professional and completed the task quickly. No hesitation in recommending them
