Toro Japanese Restaurant

Tried Toro Japanese in Vernon for the first time and really enjoyed it! I got gyoza, a shrimp tempura roll and an eel roll - everything was super tasty. The service was great too — the gentleman who helped me was very kind and attentive. I’ll definitely be coming back to try some more!

Delicious sushi! Clean restrooms. Soup, salad, sushi and steak dishes from the hibachi are all fantastic. Hard to find because there is no sign on the service road. The last picture shows the sign that is directly in front of the restaurant. It looks like that at one time it must have been the restaurant for the motel next door. Same stucco finish. Fast service so a great place for travelers passing through Vernon on 287.

The food was delicious, but the service was very slow. My husband's food took a long time to be ready. The restaurant was full and there was only one person to serve all the tables and serve the people who were waiting to take home. I would not return

We had a great lunch! Everything tasted good. In the photo, we had chicken and steak hibachi lunch, spring rolls, and two California rolls with spicy mayo.

Who would expect to find good Japanese food in a little Texas town with a population of 10,000? Until today, not me. This recently opened restaurant serves hibachi-style food, sans the hibachi-style dining, and sushi. Being my first time here, I had to try two dishes. I ordered the Vernon roll (spicy crab, shrimp tempura, avocado, and cream cheese) and was not disappointed. I was a bit surprised with the first bite, though. I've never had sushi that was served warm. After that brief moment of confusion, I was able to savor it fully. That bite alone was enough to ensure I'd be back. I also had an order of hibachi beef. It came with the typical pile of fried rice and cooked vegetables. The rice ranks right up there near the top of rices that I've had. Not at the very top, but pretty close.
