Izakaya Torae Torae

They are located at the corner of Young and McCully Street. It's izakaya style and they have a lot of delicious food items on the menu. Their fish is very fresh and the chef at the sushi bar can oversee the whole place. I sat at the sushi bar and the chef would check from time to time to make sure everyone was doing okay. My favorites were the chu-toro, o-toro, ahi tataki, snow crab croquette, pork belly kakuni, and dashi tamago. The dashi tamago is not on the menu and you have to request for it when you make your reservation. It is not guaranteed that you'll get it because Chef Hide makes it himself and if it's a busy night, he will not be able to step away from the sushi bar.

The quality of their ingredients are excellent and the prices are very reasonable compared to other sushi places on the island. They opened a few weeks ago so it's BYOB. If you plan to have dinner here, I recommend making a reservation. They are limited on parking spaces so car pooling might be a good idea.
