  • Expect specialty and traditional sushi, ramen, rice bowls, nigiri and sashimi for lunch and dinner. 
  • Their drink menu offers cocktails, wine, draft beer and Thai teas.

The space: It’ll have a modern vibe with an indoor bar and an outdoor patio.

  • It also has a private party room area that can be rented out.
  • “There’s plenty of room to cater to large parties of people throughout the entire space,” co-owner Yen Sy said.

Details: Tora is at 1213 W Morehead St
