A new location of a small group of Japanese restaurants could be coming to a Boston neighborhood.
According to a message from Adam Gaffin of Universal Hub, Tori Japan is planning to open in Dorchester, with a Dorchester Reporter article mentioning that it would move into a space on Dorchester Avenue in the Ashmont area. If approved, the new 30-seat location would feature teppanyaki, sushi, and bento boxes, and it would join others in the Back Bay, East Boston, Jamaica Plain, Hyde Park, Chelsea, Saugus, Randolph, and Brockton, along with others in Providence, Central Falls, RI, and the original in Bridgewater Township, NJ.
The address for the proposed location of Tori Japan in Dorchester is 1970 Dorchester Avenue, Dorchester, MA, 02124. The website for all locations is at https://www.torijapan.com/
