Tokyo Cafe — Restaurant in Newington

Hidden in the corner, somewhere in Newington. Tokyo Cafe was a pleasantly delicious and wholesome surprise. My partner and I decided to venture out and try somewhere new and we may have just found our new regular spot.

The dining room doesn’t have too much seating (6-8 tables max) and I would definitely consider it an intimate but cozy vibe. We frequent sushi of all calibers, this isn’t meant to be compared to Nobu or other establishments of the sort. It is an excellent neighborhood sushi restaurant.

The food was fresh and delectable . My partner really enjoyed the Kani Salad as an appetizer. She said it was unique in taste and refreshing. I had a house salad with ginger dressing and the miso soup which was just what I wanted and what you would expect. We also shared the Pepper Tuna Tataki 🤌🏼👌🏽 absolutely delightful. I must mention all from the dressing to the consistency of the kani salad, this wasn’t the generic all you can eat, run of the mill spot.

The very nice lady that waited on us was very attentive and put care into her work. The Sushi Itamae delivered with a beautiful presentation and construction of the “Sushi Sashimi Combo 4 Us”. We finished the meal off with some fried ice cream and left happy and full. I would recommend this place and we will...

Though it's a small place, they make up for it by their attention to quality and flavor of their food. It's a really good Solid sushi place! I ordered miso soup, a avocado tuna roll, and a black spider roll. My soup was a nice portion and very flavorful-hit the spot for a colder night. As soon as I took the first bite of my tuna avocado roll, it made me smile lol The tuna was Perfect along with a perfectly ripe avocado-rice was Just the right texture too and not refrigerator cold! The black spider roll was sooo good too-just the right temperature, I could really taste all of the layers in it. I even ate the ginger, it was moist, tender, and fresh with a very pleasant taste that complimented(not competed) both rolls. I think they brine it in house. Overall I really like this place for their attention to detail and great quality food! I will be coming back :D Nice customer service too-they...

I travel A LOT for work and am always looking for new sushi places because, well, it's my favorite food. This place is takeout only. I did not notice that when looking up sushi places to go as I usually like to have the sushi directly after it is plated. I was not all too excited about that but after seeing the reviews I had to give it a shot and boy am I glad that I did. I got one order each of the salmon, eel, and tuna sushi. The rice is about as good as sushi rice can get. Dense and does not fall apart and also does not have that bad sticky feeling. The fish was clearly very fresh with great flavor. The slices of fish were perfect thickness. I was not expecting this quality for such a tiny place that you'd never see if not for Google. Overall I am extremely satisfied with this little place. I will definitely...
