I totally agree w/Tricia. Hub and I moved to Thornton specifically, b/c we needed a location close enough to get to Denver easily, but far enough away to prevent us from going - all in an effort to prevent us from eating out so much! Except for Mexican and Vietnamese, we have to drive to S. Federal for Dim Sum (Super Star Asian)/Thai (J's Noodles), downtown/city center/highlands for our current upscale faves (Duo, Osteria Marco, Z Cuisine). We even drive to Centennail b/c of t he value & quality we get at Sushi Wave-their Saturday happy hour/lunch "Sushi Wave" platter is so worth the drive (we can eat up to 35 pieces, and when we get a beer and veg tempura app, it's usually not more than $55, incl tip). We absolutely love Sushi Den, but it's too expensive for us; can't stand Sonoda's quality; Osaka, Tazu and Zanmai are okay, but too far; Mori is good/fair-priced but it smells like bleach inside; Kobe An is good but too far, Hapa and Japon quality is decent, but the price isn't (rather go to Den); we love Namiko's quality (very close to Den quality), but we'd still rather drive to Sushi Wave for the value. Every once in a while, we break down when we don't feel like driving to Sushi Wave, and instead try a place up by us. We were disappointed with Zo Sushi in Broomfield, but the prices weren't so bad for the quality. Sushi Tokoro, on the other hand, is NOT WORTH IT. The prices they charge for the quality (small pieces, not very fresh fish, loose rice) is not great - the quality:value ratio is absolutely terrible. No, it's not as bad as supermarket sushi, but that's only b/c supermarket sushi rice is so bad. Otherwise, the quality of the fish is on par with anything you can get at Safeway. We really wanted to like it, b/c it's so close to our house. We've tried 3 times. It's just not that great. If people think Tokoro is good, they're not really foodies, much less sushi aficionados. Sorry, don't want to be mean, but that's my opinion.
Pros: The only Sushi option in Thornton area
Cons: Low Quality + Standard Sushi Prices = Bad value

What a great experience!! We felt so at home when walked in the door and the food was just perfect that I rate Tokoro with Namikos, just without all the cool fish tanks. Every customer that was there was so happy and enjoying themselves that it was hard not to enjoy ourselves as well. Getting our sushi did take a little time but I was fine with this as I had a nice warm sake to tide me over. Though this was my first time visiting I know I will go back and have no doubt I will not experience the same.
