An all-new Japanese bistro is coming to South Edmonton

Tora Japanese Bistro is coming to Edmonton, and its opening date is just around the corner.
The new restaurant is coming to Edmonton’s Ellerslie this November. Tora will be serving up sake, sushi rolls, and loads more Japanese dishes with the restaurant’s own modern touch.
The bistro will open its doors for its soft opening on Nov. 17, and on the same day, online ordering (pick-up only) will launch as well.

“When we started Tora Japanese Bistro, we wanted to create something more than just a place to eat,” reads a post the team made on Instagram.
As part of that, the team created Lucky Table: a game for guests to win the chance at a free special roll, and to pass along luck to other customers in the future.
According to this post, during every weekday lunch, each table gets one chance to guess their secret number from one to 25.
For those whose table guesses correctly, they win a free special roll, get to draw the next lucky number from their mystery box, choose a special roll for the next winner, and leave a little message on a postcard (which will be passed on to the next winners).
“We hope this becomes a little Tora tradition, passed from one table to the next,” finishes the post.
For those looking for a sweet new Japanese restaurant in Edmonton, just wait until Nov. 17 — then the fun can really begin.
