39 Best Japanese Restaurants in Denver

“Soooo delicious! Just had one of my best meals out in a long while! Every item was delicious and save room for the fried milk dessert — trust me! Plus a great Manhattan with Japanese whiskey“

“Great service and great food!“

“Has a good menu, tried a lot of the options. It’s a great lunch spot, and would be a good dinner choice. What was noted is how large the green tea mug is- that’s fantastic, and the bowl of edamame was also large. Minus a star reasoning- good food, quaint location, and friendly service, but nothing felt like “wow, I will brag about that meal”. And there are some sushi meals that I still think about today. So 4 is that’s it’s a good place to go, you’ll have really good meal, and it’ll be at the same cost of other places.“

“I am addicted to this place. I am in love with their Shoyu ramen with soft boiled egg and their vegetable tempura. There are many options for other ramen as well as other Japanese dishes and sushi. It's small but cozy. I just love it!“

“So excited to see that this venue will be hosting StageFluid and can't wait to come to these shows!!!! Sake Brewery??? Count me in!“

“We had such a great experience at Japon! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. Everything we ordered was amazing, especially the ramen! The service was excellent as well, everyone was very friendly, attentive, and welcoming. We came with the family and had such a nice time. We will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend!“

“Great Food!!! Come here whenever I come to Denver.❤️❤️“

“Very good Ramen. Will definitely stop by again when we are back in Denver!“

“We stopped in for a late dinner and got ramen and the teriyaki rice entree. Everything was delicious. The ramen was the right amount, full of flavor, service was quick and everyone was very polite. The inside has a cool Japanese vibe, perfect for a casual date night“

“Everything was awesome. My table shared vegan 4 rolls - my favorite was the surf and turf. I typically go to Blue Sushi in downtown for vegan rolls but I’ll definitely come back here instead to try more rolls! Great atmosphere and service.“

“Utterly DELICIOUS! Intimate setting! Treat yourself!“

“I'm so thrilled to see the DOMO is back open. This is one of my all-time favorite restaurants with some of the best food I've ever enjoyed. Entering the restaurant feels like passing through a magic gateway into rural Japan where you get to savor authentic country cuisine. Whether you're eating solo, on a date, or bringing the family, don't pass up an opportunity to enjoy everything the DOMO has to offer! I'll definitely be stopping in the next time I'm back visiting Denver.“

“I love it. Eat here regularly. Teriyaki chicken is the BOMB!!!“

“I had the pleasure to eat at this fine establishment over the weekend with some great people! Let’s just say Sushi Den do not disappoint for my fist experience and will definitely be back. Everything was awesome from the cocktails to the Nigiri and high end Whisky!“

“Great food and service! The most tender chicken breast ever. The desserts are so delicious. Clean and cozy dining room. Staff that makes you feel like family. All around fantastic dining experience.“

“Yuki is my favorite restaurant. The sushi is always fresh and very well made. The Ramen can not be beat. House made noodles and 15+hrs steeped broth are nearly impossible to find anywhere else.

To top it off, the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable.“

“Pretentious “modern “ look, very narrow place, tiny 15x15” wall mounted tables, one toilet only. Sushi : 60% rice, inferior gluey without vinegar seasonings,stingy on ingredients, comparable to King Soopers. Makes one wonder about the authenticy of those reviews“

“Sushi that’s delicious and reasonably priced? Can’t do better than Taki Sushi. The staff is super nice. Never had a bad roll here. Atmosphere is cozy and relaxed. Love that they’re open a little later than most sushi places when I’ve had a late night and really craving sushi.“

“Great food I loved this place looked very clean and inviting. They are open late which is very convenient. Only thing I would have changed was how the servers stair at you while your eating made it kind of awkward but it was also nice because they were right then when you needed them. I will continue to go there because the food was really good.“

“Everything was fantastic...starting with Abby, hostess with the mostess. Kayden, the chef lead, stopped by to thank us for returning and also celebrating with them. Alma was so attentive, with wonderful recommendations and effortless vibes. Our glasses were always full, as were our stomachs by the end. I selfishly want to gatekeep the news of daily HH, because the deals are superb.“

“Absolutely delicious! Great sushi, fresh fish, and fantastic prices. The staff is friendly and amazing! So glad I found this place!“

“We love Kobe An and have been patrons going back 30 years since they were in Lakewood. Marco has done an amazing job with the new -er location and his staff is well trained. His newer sushi chefs are doing a fantastic job which leaves him free to focus more on the front of the house. We told him tonight that the sushi is the best it’s been in the 30 years we’ve been going to his restaurants. The hamachi and mussels were outstanding, as were the rolls and cocktails. The new Kobe An is the real deal.“

“Fantastic food and atmosphere!!!“

“Amazing sushi! We ate here twice on our vacation to Denver! 🥰🥰🥰“

“The food here was delicious. Also, the comedy show is so so good! This is a unique, fun place for dinner and a show.“

“This was our first time here, and we had a great experience! The food tasted amazing. We ordered sushi and noodles, and everything was delicious and came out quickly.

Our server, Katrina, was wonderful! She was very nice, polite, friendly, and always had a smile on her face. 😊 The service was fast, and we really enjoyed our visit.

We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Perfect the way it is, no need to change anything.“

“Incredible food. Amazing service. A perfect meal!!! Trust the waiters to bring you just the right dish. Perfection!“

“Love this place. Great food great service really nice HH! Adrienne“

“The Best here in Denver away from the ocean“

“This restaurant hits every mark that most modern restaurants miss. I've never been to japan but the food feels so authentic. I ordered the bento box, and it was a nice sampler of what this place has to offer. The ratios were perfect, from the helpful serving of tempura to the precise amount of wasabi. Also, the best green tea I've ever had. Price, quality, and care are all the reasons why this restaurant hits every single mark. The food will fill you with joy that will carry you through the week.“

“Best sushi I’ve ever had. We were traveling from out of state & the only thing I have to complain about is there aren’t any locations outside of Denver, ruined all other sushi for me. Can’t wait to come back.“

“Fresh, delicious, creative“

“It was soo good! We had a great combo of roles and the bbq chicken was amazing as well. Fast service and a great vibe“

“We came in late at night like evil evil people, that team was wonderful to us, Krista, our server, was on top of everything, had a smile the whole time, and recognized some of us from last time. I work in food, super respectable and impressive, the food and atmosphere is always wonderful when I go, I couldn’t glaze this place enough. Thank you Krista, Thank you Kitchen team, Thank you Sukiya. BEST RAMEN IN COLORADO“

“Clean and inviting atmosphere! Friendly staff Great Chefs Beautiful and tasty food Reasonable prices Stop in if you’re nearby!!!“

“Easy find an conveniently located. The sushi are so cheap, delicious, and well sized. Got 5 pieces of tempura sushi for around $7. They give you sauces at request and a good amount. The menu has amazing prices, especially in this economy. There's also drinks and snacks if you're interested.

My only true issue is the wait time. They only take an order or 2 every 5 to 10 minutes. I waited around 30 minutes for my order. I forgive this since there were only 2 workers and a decent number of customers. Bathrooms and tables are there while you wait. Clean inside.

If you're looking for cheap sushi- don't buy it for nearly twice the price at the target or Walgreens on either side. Get it fresher and tastier here.“

“Some of the best sushi!!! Would recommend to anyone!! So many choices!! It’s on the pricy end but completely worth it!!!“

“My wife and I have been coming here for the past few months since moving in to the area. We are always greeted immediately and served within minutes. The presentation of the food is always on point and the music they play is perfect for everyone. Pricing is manageable but can get pricey fast. Highly recommend coming during the day. So worth it!!“
