Reviews Summary
Izakaya Tori Victoria Park is a popular new Japanese spot praised for its vibrant atmosphere and delicious, quickly served dishes like karaage chicken and yakitori. While many enjoy the lively ambiance and efficient iPad ordering, some find the tables to be too close together. The food is generally well-received for its flavor, though a few diners noted that it didn't always provide a significant 'wow' factor for the price.
"Delicious and quick!
We came here with friends and had such a great time. The food was absolutely delicious, super fresh, and came out really fast! Portions were generous, prices very affordable, and the staff was friendly too. Definitely a great spot for a tasty and budget-friendly meal!"

"On a Friday night arrv 6:30 and was seated quickly.
The izakaya is bigger than I thought but still cosy. Love the crate/keg seats, red lanterns and design.
Our food came out after 10-15mins. Honestly delicious food. Our croqutte was crispy and hot, karaage so juicy and tender, chicken hearts were pretty good (an aquired taste), yakitori was flavourful and beef nicely cooked and teriyaki tofu was sizzling and well seasoned.
Beer was beering, cocktail matcha sooo good and matcha latte was divine (both sweet rather than bitter).
I was skeptical due to some reviews, but I honestly had great food. For these dishes, it was pricey, a little over 100 bucks for a couple. But, we dont dine out often (So we dont mind).
4/5 because even though the food was good, didnt give me a big wow factor, i do believe generally due to dish choice. I love tofu but id try something different next time. Only thing genuinely 100% amazing was the karaage and croquettes.
I had to brighten the photos purely because its just super red in there! Doesnt do the food justice but 100% yummy."

"Loved, loved, loved the karaage chicken at Izakaya Tori — easily one of the best I’ve had. Super juicy, crispy, and packed with flavour. Absolutely nailed it.
We also tried the cold noodle dish, which was pretty decent. The fried side dish that came with it was just okay, nothing too memorable. But honestly, I’d come back for the karaage alone — it’s that good."
