Sporting progressive Asian cuisine, TOMA Brasserie combines several Asian-inspired culinary concepts into high-quality dishes. The unapologetic use of authentic Asian ingredients makes each food a different identity and uniqueness from other premium restaurant bars.

Crossing boundaries and culinary borders, TOMA Brasserie is transforming traditional Asian favorites into high-end fusion cuisine and libation. Every TOMA element has been consciously chosen to present the rare, the luxurious, and the refined.
