Editorial Review for Orris – by Randi Schmelzer
In Short
Chef Hideo Yamashiro's Westside eatery is more casual than his flagship, Shiro: The open kitchen is a flash of stainless steel, and the tiny, green-tinted dining room is accented by understated jazz. Patrons linger over globally and locally influenced tapas served in sharable portions. The selection includes albacore lettuce cups, curry infused shrimp tempura and the chef's signature shrimp mousse-stuffed ravioli in shiitake mushroom sauce. Desserts include seasonal ice creams and sorbets.

Insider Tips
ParkingThere's a small free lot behind the restaurant, and valet is offered Thursday through Saturday.
What to DrinkThere are about 20 wines--served by the bottle and glass--selected by the chef to complement particular dishes; corkage is $12. Beer and sake is also available.
Know Before You GoThe whole deep-fried catfish with cilantro and ponzu may be the most requested dish at Shiro, but it's not on the small plates-only menu.

Orris is The best fine dining experience one could enjoy. The food, service and atmosphere is absolutely superb. From the time you enter the restaurant, until you leave hours later, you are delighted in selections of fine food and french wine. I'm happy to see that after coming to Orris over the past years that the restaurant earned high rankings from Fodors.

Orris is a funky Japanese french tapa kind of a place. They have wonderful service and really tasty food. I love almost everything here. There are always a couple of specials worth hearing. The vibe is hip and friendly. I loved the tuna tartar and the fried chicken. I have never had a bad experience here. The servings are on the small side, but really good. It's a great date spot. All of my friends that I have turned onto this place really like it. and we have all been back.
Pros: Delicious Food
Cons: Servings on the smaller side
