Japon Bistro is right in the middle of the LA suburb’s busy downtown area, and it was rated number one on City Search'es poll of the best sushi joints in LA.  With an authentic Japanese menu that would fit right in if it was located in Tokyo, Japon Bistro features only the freshest fish, including some exotic choices that you wouldn't expect to find outside of Japan. With a huge Sake list that has been featured in the LA Times on multiple occasions, this is the place to go if you're looking for the most authentic, yet modern, Japanese food experience in Los Angeles. And the prices are pretty decent, as Japon Bistro will not cost you an arm and a leg like the celebrity baiting Nobu and Koi menus will. You might not see Paris Hilton, but you won't care as you knock back another Sake bomb and enjoy more fresh sushi slices than you could have afforded at one of the hipper joints in Beverly Hills and Malibu. So if you're looking for some authentic and fresh Sushi with an unbeatable Sake menu, then head North on the 110 and take a seat at Pasadena's Japon Bistro.
