"The folks behind Dale Mabry smash Izakaya Tori have spread their wings downtown, opening this chic, fast-paced Japanese pub that serves food and drink until 1 a.m. on the weekends. It’s already gained a big reputation as a later-night destination for sushi and grilled meat skewers, with hearty plates like pork belly and a seared New York strip steak tataki alongside sashimi and handrolls. Don’t sleep on Tori Bar’s cocktail list either, featuring Japanese-inspired highballs and cocktails. Rather than ordering a big bowl of shishito peppers, opt instead for the shishito pepper margarita with Astral Tequila, orange liqueur, shishito peppers, wasabi syrup, and lime." - Matthew Meltzer
