My Tokyo opened on July 20th, 2019 by Japanese chef Harry Cha in the hopes of creating a family-oriented bistro whose menu expanded beyond the traditional Japanese sushi and sashimi staples. My Tokyo is one of the newer and lesser-known restaurants on Tarrytown’s Main Street. Although there isn’t much in-house seating, the minimalist decor and earthy tones create a warm atmosphere great for chatting over a bowl of miso soup. Interestingly, My Tokyo is one of the few BYOB restaurants in the area. My Tokyo is best known for their rice bowls, which come with soup and japanese style pickles. We recommend either the Oyako Bowl or the Poke Bowl. The Oyako Bowl is savory and delicious, served warm with egg, shitake mushroom and onion. The Poke Bowl is served with a choice of tuna or salmon, both of which taste remarkably fresh, topped with an array of vegetables.

Recommended order: Oyako Bowl or Poke bowl
