    Tokyo Cafe is a nice sushi find in cowtown. I've made a major shift in how and when I eat and Tokyo Cafe came in handy today. Overall it's just good enough to put on your to do list. The interior feels like a small place in Japan. Well lit, comfortable seating. Service is excellent. Our waitress was smart in that ,"ok, she has a high sense of awareness for what she's doing." The food. While adequate, it could and should be much better and rise to the space and service. Prices are inline with what you get . Final note,I rounded up from 31/2 stars to 4. I'm not marking my calendar anxious to return however,if I was in the area I would stop in. You should decide for yourself when you... Go!

    Return visit and still impressed! I love the rotating weekly happy hour specials -- 3 different apps for $15 is seriously a can't-beat deal. This week's lineup was SO good: Spicy Salmon Tacos, Curry Poutine Fries, and Brisket Dumplings. The dumplings... I could've ordered an endless basket and been completely in love. Absolute standout. The fries weren't bad, but I probably wouldn't order them again. I just wish the toppings were more evenly distributed instead of mostly piled on top. The Spicy Salmon Tacos were the perfect little bites with a solid kick. I did ask if they could be made with another fish and was told no. which I understand, but I'd love to see that as an option in the future. These definitely deserve a permanent spot on the menu. We also tried the Roll of the Week (can't remember the name!) and added a happy hour tempura roll -- both delicious. My son ordered a side of chicken and rice, which was the perfect portion for him since they don't have a kids menu. Plenty of seating options and a great use of the layout. Friendly staff as always. We'll definitely be back!

    Receipt and price of items

    Love the environment here for lunch. Super relaxed and a lot of people come to enjoy sushi date with themselves. The lunch bento box is so worth the price for the amount of food you can get. The quality of sushi is good as well, and the spicy tuna roll is amazing here. Service is always great too! Love this spot.

    Loved the bento box, great portion for the price. Makes me a believer in the bento box when i was not before! Cute atmosphere, great menu, quick and easy lunch. I can see why this is one of Leon Bridges' favorites!

    I really enjoy Tokyo Café! They have great sushi rolls, as well as daily sushi specials& Ramen.

    I had a pleasant lunch at Tokyo Cafe. The vibe is casual, great service and excellent dishes. I enjoyed their happy hour rotating menu and I would highly recommend trying the Butadon bowl and Kani Ebi roll. The calamari was sliced into thick chunks and the batter was slightly soggy- I couldn't finish those due the texture. The Tan Tan Ramen broth is very flavorful, and the garlic really stands out. Overall, a very nice restaurant with good eats. Next time i'd like to try their lunch bento box.

    Steamed Edamame & Tok Fries
    Danielle G.

    When you walk in you feel transported to a different place. The service is on point. We started with edamame with sea salt. They had the perfect amount of salt for us. Most places don't put enough. We also had the Tok fries! If you haven't had these, its a Just try. We made it for lunch and they have build your own bento. What a great value! I got the salmon with steamed rice, miso and cucumber salad. I asked for teriyaki sauce on the side. He got the chicken teriyaki bowl. He did have to ask for extra teriyaki sauce. Which they didn't charge for the side of both sauces. Would definitely come back.

    This is my first visit to Tokyo Cafe and it did not disappoint. The service was great, very good, fast, and friendly. The restaurant space is small, reservations are recommended. It feels open and bright. The food was absolutely awesome. Overall, excellent.

    Love the view

    The ambiance is super chill.. Our waitress Jessica was very attentive and pleasant. Our appetizer was a cucumber salad , lacked a little bit of flavor , but cucumbers were fresh.. The Tok Fries were delicious.. Piping hot and full of flavor. It's is served with a side of dry seasoning and a mayo... BEST fries I have had in a while.. The main course: build your own bento box , the chicken teriyaki very flavorful as well chose steam rice and a salad .. Also, ordered Yakisoba Noodles with chicken as the protein. It did not disappoint... Temptation roll hit the spot!! Most definitely will be back!

    Westside Ramen Beef Bowl
    Jennifer J.

    We've been wanting to try this place and it was a great experience, from the Asian decor to the welcoming atmosphere to the food. We got the Shumai to start off and it was pretty good. I suggest having the sauce on the side if you're not into really spicy things. My boyfriend got the beef bowl and it was delish. The beef was perfectly seasoned and the sauce had a great flavor. You don't get much protein, so next time he wants to order it with extra meat. I got the west side Ramen which was yummy. The broth was ok, but the noodles were good and plenty. I got the pork loin since I always get the pork belly, so it wasn't as flavorful. Overall it was good, but I've had better. Definitely a place to try if you're in the area and/or want to eat good food.

    Tok Fries

    Stopped in on a weekend afternoon and it was fairly busy. I was seated quickly, however the service was fairly slow. Food was absolutely delicious however and I'll be returning for sure. The sushi is fresh and very well made. Tok fries are out of this world good -- very reminiscent of shinjuku station.

    No they don't

    Is there a vegetarian ramen available? For some reason I couldn't see one on the menu. Thanks

    Yes they do have vegetarian options. Just ask them for it. I believe is was miso based or something similar but we had to special request

    Does this restaurant serve items with Wagyu beef?

    I know they have a short rib dish, however I don't remember seeing wagyu or Kobe beef in their menu. Hope this helps.

We had the o-toro, chu-toro, aji, and fluke, and all were amazing quality and you got a lot of fish for the price. They have a lot of sushi combos and platters to service a variety of sizes of parties. We had the sushi combo which was plenty of fish, especially with the cut sizes. Wait staff was very attentive and helpful with the menu. Cons: the entrance is a little off putting but you shouldn't let that deter you. the french menu was lacking in my opinion. There is only one page of options, and we ended up not ordering anything french since the japanese was so appealing. I would've liked to see some seafood or more small plates. Overall the fish quality and piece sizes will keep me coming back! I definitely want to try some of the hot plate options as well. add it to your list!

The ramens were packed with the flavor. Our choices were the to tonkotsu and spicy miso. The tonkotsu was super flavorful and I loved the bits off corn and I added minced pork for extra texture in the soup which was a great choice I would do again. The noodles were thinner than other ramens I have tried but still were very yummy and cooked well. The miso was a thicker soup with thicker noodles and the spiciness wasn't overwhelming. Both bowls were very full and we had left overs to save for later. Overall I enjoyed everything about the restaurant and I would recommend others to come and try it. I will definitely be back.

If you've been wanting to try this place, I'd definitely recommend arriving early. Parking was probably the most challenging part of the visit. There was a rummage sale happening nearby, so the area was busier than usual. They do have a designated parking lot, but it's very small and fills up quickly. Most people will likely need to rely on street parking, which took a little patience that day. The restaurant itself is tiny, but that's part of the charm. There's a bar area that seats around 10 to 12 people and only a handful of tables. We were a party of three and were seated right away, but I could see larger groups having a harder time finding space together. The tables are also on the smaller side, so once the food starts arriving things can get a little crowded. That said, the food completely lived up to the hype. Everything we ordered was delicious. The chicken karaage was crispy and flavorful, the marinated ribeye was tender and packed with flavor, and my favorite dish of the night was easily the beef yakisoba. We each ordered a starter, three skewers, and a side that our server recommended, and every plate disappeared quickly. The atmosphere felt lively and busy, with Japanese figurines and decorations displayed throughout the restaurant. I overheard another guest mention that it reminded them of places they had visited in Japan, which made me appreciate the attention to detail even more. One thing to note - we were told they don't split bills, which wasn't a problem for our group, but it's something to know ahead of time if you're dining with friends.

The two downsides I experienced were the bar chairs and the chicken karaage. The chicken was dry on the outside without any sort of battering, which I had not experienced outside of diet naked tenders and certainly not anywhere I ate in Japan, but the quality of the chicken itself was good and highly juicy to the point where I burned myself on my first bite with a geyser of hot water. The bar seating was a nice touch but I found myself constantly sliding back in my chair and very low to the table. The sheer number of chairs packed into the bar was also authentic, as brushing elbows does indeed happen a lot in little shops like this, even if we are not used to it here. The yaki onigiri was absolutely amazing, crunchy and sweet, and the yakisoba was delicious with the rather interesting addition of mayo on the side. I wasn't sure I'd like it but it worked well. All in all, I'd definitely come by again to scratch the itch to not drop a grand on a trip lol
