Toro Japanese Restaurant

Toro is a top quality Japanese food experience. They are on View Street, between Douglas and Blanchard. The restaurant has been open for a couple of years now but I only tried it out in the last half year.

The below is an example of a lunch bento box. It contains new things I have not had in a bento box, like bao and eel. The quality in the choices made, different each day, will want me coming back for more. You have to be early though as they only make a limited amount of them.


Here is an example of a supper I ate here. Started with Goma-Ae salad (boiled spinach with sesame dressing).


Because it was cold out, the main I chose was the spicy seafood udon (prawn, scallop, squid, udon noodles with seasonal veggies) with egg added.


If you want a great experience of Japanese food in downtown Victoria, head to Toro.
