Tokoro is a mellow, relaxing place to enjoy some of the best Japanese cuisine South Pasadena has to offer. That's no exaggeration, despite the area's reputation for terrific Far East eats.
The service is outstanding, as is the artistry of the restaurant's sushi chefs. Tokoro's interior decor is elegantly put together, maintaining a traditional Japanese atmosphere without overdoing it to the point of gaudiness.
Prices here are reasonable for a full-service sushi restaurant -- lots of money-saving specials throughout the year.
