En Toriciya

5 out of 5, the meal we had at En Toriciya was great. I rarely have a meal where every single item is amazing; so hats off to the chef & staff… you blew my socks off.
I’ve been keen to try some of the newer restaurants in Crows Nest after falling in love with Mama Buoi’s and I’m glad that we made the decision the other night to try En Toriciya.
We were hungry, and we were wanting Toro (tuna belly, aka the prime cut of the tuna/​sushi world).
We ordered:
— Agedashi Tofu = ⁵⁄₅ on my official Agedashi Tofu rating scale. More please!
— Kingfish & Jalapeño Carpaccio (yuzu soy sauce). = Delicious, the definition of the dish, and with just the right amount of kick.
— Assorted Sushi (small) = great, very fresh.
— Toro sushi ($ 12 per piece). = The star, what people would consider «the Wagyu of the sushi world». We HAD to order it and then refrain from ordering more. It was so amazing; it basically dissolves in you mouth into complete bliss. If you haven’t had Toro… and see it on the menu and love sushi/​sashimi… do yourself a favour and treat yo’ self!
— Tempura Udon = very tasty, I loved the udon noodles.
— Nabeyaki Hot Pot Udon = exceptional. I walked out still tasting the sweet/​salty goodness.
If I had to say anything negative about my experience is that we couldn’t keep ordering more food. We could have ordered another round of Toro easily (but that would have been $ 24). In the end, what we ordered came to $ 111 — which is pricey, but you also don’t need to order the amount of food we did.
