Reviews Summary
Tora Sushi Lounge is consistently praised for its fresh, creative sushi and delicious Japanese dishes like udon and calamari. Diners highlight the friendly service and the availability of gluten-free options. While many rave about the flavors, some note that the atmosphere's music volume can be inconsistent.
"The place was busier than usual, as the local people waiting said. It took us a bit to have a seat and for someone to get our order. Fresh fish, delicious roll combinations, very creative and it was tasty. Gluten Free: part of the menu dedicated and also Tamari sauce is available."

"The Sashimi Lotus Flower at Tora Sushi in Astoria, Oregon is not only beautiful, it is delicious! High protein, low carb, healthy fats, and most important for someone like me, it contains no soy products (I am anaphylactic.)"

"Tora Sushi in Astoria was so good when we stopped in for lunch on our way north that we had stop again on our way home. Even if it was just for the Green Muscles (baked with imitation crab and mayo with sweet sauce, onions and masago). I don't know what the "sweet sauce" is, but I imagine it's something with Yuzu. Somewhere between lemon and orange. Delightful. Likely our new coast trip indulgence.
The Astoria Roll (pictured, Spicy imitation crab, tempura shrimp
and avocado. Topped with seared
cajun salmon, green onions and
wasabi dressing) was also very nice. I don't know what cajun flavors have to do with Astoria, but it—with the wasabi dressing—was a fun, toasty flavor profile.
Love the wide variety of vegan options, wish there were more virgins cocktails than just the margaritas.
Only 4 stars for atmosphere, because on our first visit the music volume kept changing, sometimes becoming uncomfortably loud despite myself and my partner being two of maybe six patrons. Didn't have this problem on our second visit! Great time."
