About
Torien opened in 2020 as the US outpost of Tokyo's Torishiki, whose owner Yoshiteru Ikegawa has held a Michelin star since 2010. Chef Hideo An leads the New York kitchen after training three years at Torishiki and Torioka in Tokyo. The 17-seat counter serves a 15-course yakitori omakase over Kishu binchōtan, earning a Michelin star in 2022. Michelin Guide describes An as 'working his skills like a master pianist.'
