Toro Sushi Bar is going to be a sushi-only themed restaurant with an upscale theme. The restaurant will be focused on the concept of a sushi bar. The preparation area will be in the open, with most diners sitting along the preparation area at a bar. There will also be tables, but around half the seating will be at the bar area. The focus of the menu will be on sushi, and the center of the bar will be reserved for those customers who are ordering the omakase, which is the premium offering on the menu where the chef prepares a multi-course feast, roughly analogous to a tasting menu at the chef's table in a Western fine dining restaurant. The idea is to bring the type of sophisticated sushi concept normally found in a place like New York or Vancouver to the local area.

Toro Sushi Bar will occupy the high end of the market, so the target market will be older and more upscale than similar ethnic-themed restaurants in the area. The typical customer will be over 35 and be a high income earner. This customer will be adventurous in eating and have sophisticated tastes. Sushi will not be unfamiliar to the target customer, and much of the target market will be sufficiently knowledgeable about the cuisine to need little guidance from the staff. The customers will also in general be quite well-educated.

Toro Sushi Bar will carry a wide range of fish ingredients. Not only will standards like tuna, tuna belly, salmon, flying fish roe and barbequed eel be included, but more esoteric varieties such as snapper (tai), surf clam (hokkigai) and sea urchin (uni) will also be included. The menu will be a la carte. A unique feature of the menu will be omakase, which is where the diner entrusts the chef to prepare a meal within a certain budget range. Normally, this will be a combination of different types of sushi. At Toro Sushi Bar, omakase will also feature the rarest menu items, some of which may not appear on the regular menu (for example hamachi toro or geoduck). To complement the sushi, green tea will be provided, and there will be an extensive menu of sake and Japanese beer, as much as can be provided by the local distributors.

The pricing levels are going to be high. Because….....
