Sobadokoro Taiko - Sobadokoro is unique amongst the trendy sphere of California Japanese restaurants in that it does not solely specialize in sushi. While those seeking sushi can, of course, find it here, the menu offers a much broader selection than most Japanese restaurants, including all kinds of tempura, good salads, and fish entrees. With a vast selection of beers and wines to go with their ultramodern decor, Sobadokoro is a great spot for those looking to try something new, or anyone just looking to eat some Japanese food in a spot not overrun by trendsetters.
