Toku, Gillis and George Poll’s new Americana darling, brings sophisticated Modern Asian cuisine to Long Island. The brothers worked with Executive Chef Tomoyuki Kobayashi to create an enticing array of eclectic Asian dishes. They put their own unique spin on them, making each one a specialty.

The categorized menu offers stunning variety, allowing diners to compose their own meals whether they prefer the traditional three courses or an assortment of hot and cold appetizers and skewers to share. Most notable are Spicy Rock Shrimp and Yellowtail Jalapeno. Selections from the extensive sushi menu can make up a dinner or round one out. Tomoyuki is classically trained in both French and his native Japanese technique. He has studied both here and at home, leaving him perfectly equipped to craft a repertoire of traditional dishes with modern twists. Osaka born Shohei Moriya mans the sushi bar, having perfected his technique at Manhattan’s Nobu and Morimoto.

Designer Paul Bentel realized the Polls’ vision of creating a simple modern space that maintains a sense of warmth and character. Chain maille curtains line the entrance hallway while giving glimpses of the magnificent wood and illuminated onyx bar. A trellis evocative of a 19th century Japanese garden runs along the ultramodern paneled ceiling. Clean lines, geometric woodwork and slate accents are minimalist chic with a zen feel.

Impressive works of art reflect the genius of Li Jin of China. A stunning Jin-inspired painting by Long Island artists faces Toku’s sushi bar. Figurative artwork of social gatherings including Jin’s Harvest Picnic embellish the private dining room. The room’s hidden doors may be closed for an intimate gathering, opened completely to extend the main floor.
