About Torissong

Carlton regulars know Torissong as the gold standard for generous, fuss-free teishoku dining. Skip the menu fatigue—pick a main, and the kitchen curates the rest onto a single loaded tray. Diners talk about the kobachi lineup: seven rotating side dishes flanking fresh sashimi, braised mushrooms, hot rice, and comforting miso soup. Mains hold their own, from crisp chicken katsu to wagyu hamburg steak, while the bustling room pours Market Lane coffee and spoons hojicha ice cream to finish.

  • All-Inclusive Teishoku Trays: A single main arrives flanked by rice, miso soup, fresh sashimi, rotating kobachi sides, and dessert.
  • Satisfying Japanese Mains: A focused roster of hearty proteins, including crisp chicken katsu, teriyaki salmon, and wagyu hamburg steak.
  • Lively Dining Room: A buzzing, modern Carlton dining room serving Market Lane coffee alongside complete Japanese comfort sets.

Why Choose Torissong

Why Carlton diners choose Torissong for balanced Japanese set meals

  • Streamlined Pre-Curated Trays

    Diners select one primary protein, and Torissong delivers an abundant set tray complete with rice, miso soup, starters, rotating side dishes, and dessert without extra ordering steps.

    I love the simplicity of just picking a protein and then the teishoku set comes out on this beautiful tray with all the starters, sides, dessert you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does ordering work?

Meals are served teishoku-style: you choose a single main dish (such as katsu, hamburg steak, salmon, or unagi), and it arrives on a complete set tray with rice, miso soup, sashimi, several small rotating side dishes, and dessert.

Do you need to book a table in advance?

Reservations are accepted and recommended, especially around peak lunch and dinner hours when seating is limited. Walk-ins are accommodated when tables are open, but guests without a booking may encounter a wait or be offered a time-limited seating.

Are there vegetarian options available?

Yes, Torissong serves a Vegetarian Teishoku set meal featuring fresh, satisfying ingredients alongside a variety of side dishes.

How large are the portions and how is the pacing?

Expect substantial portions. Each teishoku tray includes a main protein alongside multiple kobachi sides, rice, soup, and dessert, making for a filling, complete meal. Food is prepared thoughtfully to order, so dishes may take a little time to arrive during busy services.
