    Banana wontons
    Khy Ee S.

    Good place for drinks and sushi! Came for the lunch prix fixe ($37) and it was pretty worth it for the amount of food you get! Would recommend their spicy tuna roll appetizer (the sushi rolls are the best things here!). I got the braised short rib as my main. It was a tasty first few bites, but became a bit dry once you ran out of sauce (especially since it's a lean cut). The peanut noodles that it came with were alright. Ended with the banana wonton dessert! It only comes with 1 wonton, but the best part is the lychee sorbet and banana cream it comes with. Very yummy (and a small dessert but good enough to end the meal!) Overall, stick to the sushi! Get their drinks! Had the coconut and lychee cocktail which was super yummy. Service was amazing (constantly changing plates, cleaning up our table between courses, friendly). Would recommend a reservation especially if you come at night as it gets crowded.

    Ambiance is great, staff is very friendly and welcoming! I came with my daughter and grandson to meet with other family. As we walked in the music was very loud but upbeat. It was a Thursday night and very crowded. We had reservation but was told they wee running behind. However, we didn't have to wait too long. The food was delicious and it was an amazing experience. We got the edamame dumplings, crispy rice, Wagyu strip and rainbow rolls. Our server was absolutely knowledgeable and helpful. We totally enjoyed our time there. I definitely recommend!

    Toku is a beautiful restaurant located in the Americana Manhasset mall. The decor inside is very modern and elegant. We ordered a few different items from the menu. Started with the Handcut Toku Fries, Kimchee Chinese Broccoli, and the Wok Bok Choy & Shiitake Mushrooms. I enjoyed the Toku Fries and thought the others were okay. The fries came with a wasabi aioli dipping sauce, but I preferred a plain old ketchup with it instead. I ordered the Braised Short Ribs for my main couse. The dish featured blocks of short ribs served with peanut pad Thai noodles. I thought the dish could have used a bit more flavor, and I didn't think the short ribs paired effectively with the noodles. Although the food was okay, given the decor and ambiance of the restaurant, this is an ideal setting for a refined date experience

    Wagyu Steak Frites - 09/16/2025
    Natasha F.

    The service was phenomenal. Love the sample of matches they leave on the way out. That being said I won't come here again. Yes it is a fancy high end vibe but that is where it ends. Fruit flies everywhere and my food tasted off putting. Especially my ikura sushi. The wagyu steak frites was edible but it had too much cartilage and definitely not worth the $55.00. It's very bad for a restaurant to have fruit flies as that most likely means it is unsanitary in the kitchen. It was not just one fruit fly. It was several.

    5/17/25 - Rock Shrimp Tempura & Soft Omelette Shrimp Fried Rice
    Brie F.

    Went on a lunch date to TOKU and left with mixed feelings. First off, the ambiance was beautiful! It gave sleek and upscale. The staff uniforms were polished and professional. Service was friendly and attentive, which set a great tone for the afternoon. What surprised and disappointed me right away was that rice isn't included with entrees. It's a separate charge. That felt a little off for a place in this price range. We ordered quite a bit to sample the menu. We asked for the appetizers and the entrée to be served at the same time. We ordered Lobster Tacos, Rock Shrimp Tempura, Soft Omelette Shrimp Fried Rice, Pacific King Roll, Tenderloin Beef & Broccoli as well as Handcut Toku Fries. To drink, I had the Lychee Martini, delicious and strong. I only needed one and sipped it slowly since I felt a buzz almost instantly. Not sure if it was that good or if I was just really hungry . My friend had the Virgin Pineapple Martini and enjoyed it as well. Food wise was a bit of a rollercoaster. The Pacific King Roll tasted good, but it only came with 6 pieces. My friend was disappointed and said she wouldn't get it again. The Lobster Tacos were tasty but more of a tease than a meal, "just a tickle," as she put it. The Toku Fries didn't live up to the hype for me, they were just okay. The Beef & Broccoli was a generous portion, and the beef was tender, but the flavor didn't quite hit. Honestly, I've had better from a neighborhood spot like Chinitos. Now for the highlight, the Soft Omelette Shrimp Fried Rice. It was a total standout. Perfectly cooked shrimp, soft flavorful rice, and veggies with the perfect bite. Melt in your mouth good. The only downside, you have to order it separately. No rice with entrees still boggles me. Lovely atmosphere, good drinks, some hits and some misses on the food. Worth a visit, but I'd be more selective with my order next time. Rating: 3.5

    Crispy Rice
    Parteek K.

    Came here for a nice lunch, frequent here a few times a year. Absolutely love the crispy rice, it's quite possibly my favorite out there. The kung pao chicken, beef, and fried rice all blend together so well. It made for an amazing meal. The service really goes back and forth here sometimes it's amazing sometimes it's eh. It really depends. The ambiance however is amazing, perfect for all occasions. Great place to have a lunch when you're on a nice shopping trip.

    My bland soggy salad

    Total waste of money. We never waste food but every entree was terrible. Had to add lime to flavor my soggy Asian salad. My daughter's short rib was dry and overcooked. My son's bento box was uncooked broccoli with four pieces of chicken. OurWaiter, Daniel couldn't be bothered. I had to flag him for more lime, the check. He dropped off the bill and picked it up, never thank you. Had an attitude and look of disdain, like we were a bother. Would've told management, but like Daniel, the two men in suits never bothered to stop and inquire Don't know how such trash food be served at such a ridiculous price

    Came in to have an early dinner and the place was packed! It is a beautiful restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. The food here is so fresh and delicious. From their fried rice, to their sushi and to their drinks, there is something for everyone here! I love coming here and can't wait to come back!

    One can't NOT visit Toku when in Manhasset, but it is certainly becoming more and more for special occasions only. The food quality has stayed the same for years (amazing) but the prices have been so jacked up it is ridiculous. I recommend getting a drink and splitting a dish at the bar with a friend, the bar staff is super attentive and kind.

    Just no. Sushi selection is $37 for the most plain pieces. This place is way overpriced and not at all what I'd consider Asian food.

Plus, complimentary bread and butter is gluten free, dairy free and soy free as well. Others had something else I had no interest in to remember the name. Their menu has many options to offer, including gluten free, soy free, and dairy free options.

They used to serve a very good humus with a fresh soft bread now we received hard burnt bread and hard butter. The waiter had no reaction when we pointed it out to him. Other than that service was fine and our meatloaf was good. Some items from the old menu that we enjoyed like the Cuban sandwich were not longer available. Would not refuse to go back but will definitely move down on the list of favorites.

    I'll start by saying this: I knew this place was expensive. I went in expecting to spend a lot of…read moremoney, and I have absolutely no problem doing that when the food and experience justify it. The problem is that this restaurant has such a huge reputation and people rave about it so much that my expectations were very high. Unfortunately, I left thinking, "That was good... but THAT'S what everyone is raving about?" The pros: We got the porterhouse for two, and to be fair, the steak was tender and juicy and cooked well. The home fries were crispy and delicious, and the fried zucchini was crunchy and delicious. There were also plenty of employees around, so we were never exactly wondering where our waiter was. But there were quite a few things that made me scratch my head: First impressions matter, and the valet situation was confusing. The valet station is right by the front entrance, and pulling in, it wasn't immediately clear where you were supposed to go. Then we sat down and got cold bread and butter that was basically a hockey puck. Seriously... how am I supposed to butter cold bread with butter that could probably break a window? I'm going to an expensive steakhouse, I intentionally didn't eat much all day, and one of the first things put in front of me is basically something inedible. It sounds like a small thing, but at this level of restaurant, those little details matter. Warm bread and spreadable butter is something the cheesecake factory can manage. How is this their norm? There were also employees EVERYWHERE. I appreciate being well staffed, but there were so many workers standing around and huddled together that it actually made the restaurant feel a little chaotic. At one point I felt like there were more employees than customers. I was also pretty surprised there was no drink menu. No beer menu. No cocktail menu. Apparently I'm just supposed to have the waiter verbally list every beer they carry and order a cocktail without knowing what it costs. My wife wanted a specialty cocktail, and there wasn't even a menu to look through. Her Tito's martini was $25. Again, $25 isn't necessarily shocking at a high-end steakhouse, but I would like to know that before I order it. And she ordered it extra dirty, yet somehow it came out really sweet. Not exactly what she was going for. Another head-scratcher: every single appetizer was seafood. I understand seafood is popular, but literally every appetizer? For someone who doesn't eat seafood, that's a pretty big disappointment. Now for the star of the show: the steak. We got the porterhouse for two. Tender? Yes. Juicy? Yes. Flavorful? Not really. This was probably my biggest food disappointment. The steak wasn't bad whatsoever, but it needed seasoning. For a steakhouse with this reputation, I expected that first bite to be a "holy crap, that's good" moment. Instead, I was reaching for the salt. Some garlic, seasoning, or something to give it more flavor would have gone a long way. $160 for the porterhouse. $16 for home fries. $16 for zucchini. $25 for a martini After tax and tip, we're basically at $300 for dinner for two, and we didn't even get an appetizer or a drink for myself. I'm not mad that it cost $300, I'm mad that it didn't feel like a $300 experience. If I went to a moderately priced steakhouse and had this meal, I'd probably be saying it was great. But when you're charging these prices and have people talking about you like you're one of the best steakhouses around, the standard is different. I'm willing to pay for exceptional. I just didn't get exceptional. Maybe I'm being overly critical, but if I'm paying $300+ for dinner, I'm going to be critical. If I had gone in knowing nothing about the restaurant, I'd probably give it 4 stars and say we had a good dinner. But after hearing all the hype and having such high expectations 3 is all they earned from me Good steak. Good sides. Nice atmosphere. Plenty of staff. But I walked out thinking, "That's it?" I wasn't disappointed enough to say I had a bad experience. I just wasn't nearly impressed enough to understand why everyone seems to rave about this place.
