"Tucked away in the TPC Scottsdale (the golf club that hosts the WM Phoenix Open the PGA Tour), Toro is one of celebrity chef Richard Sandoval’s many fusion odes to modern Latin cuisine. Although the menu features cooked dishes, the outlier and standout here is Nikkei-style sushi, which blends Peruvian ingredients and cooking techniques with Japanese flavors and sushi techniques. The results are whimsical sushi rolls with bold Latin flavors that were the evolutionary result of Japanese immigrants working on coastal plantations in Peru in the 1800s. Don’t miss the Acevichado Nikkei, which blends shrimp tempura with hamachi tiradito, leche de tigre, togarashi aioli, and kabayaki (think teriyaki-style eel). For sushi traditionalists, there are nigiri, maki rolls, and 32-piece sushi platters." - Nikki Buchanan, Eater Staff
