According to recent public records, a Canadian sushi brand is soon debuting in town.
Aburi Tora Sushi will soon begin building out at the East Village at 3500 E. Parmer Ln. #8010. Construction records examined by What Now Austin list a “Shell building interior finish out for Sushi Restaurant” that will span 3252 square feet and cost around $1,200,000. It is expected to finish in December.
“ABURI TORA’s roots are steeped in Japanese history, in contrast to its futuristic dining style. Owner Seigo Nakamura, originally from Miyazaki, Japan, took over his father’s restaurant, Sushi TORA when he was only 20 years old, in 1996,” the official website states.
“Four successful restaurants and ten years later, Seigo set his mind to bringing a traditional style of sushi restaurant – Kaiten, to Canada, but in a modern way with higher quality offerings. Paying homage to his roots, he named it TORA.”
No opening date has been announced.
