“Sushi is one of my favorite forms of food. I did not expect to have the best sushi I've ever had in Denver. But on a recent stay in RiNo, my wife and I tried out Temaki Den. And the experience was amazing. First, the hostess was phenomenal. Amazing service. Went out of her way to improve our experience. Second, we went with the omakase to try and experience as many things as possible. Third, the nigiri and temaki is amazing. We went to a Michelin Star rated restaurant the night before, and while they was great... this experience was better. There wasn't an item served that wasn't lower than a 8/10. And MOST of the items were 9-10/10. To be honest, it didn't make sense to me. I've watched documentaries about sushi and how important fresh fish is... so how Temaki Den is able to get this quality is beyond my understanding. But it's nothing short of amazing. The ambience is probably the weakest aspect of the restaurant. It's not bad, by any means, but it's not "luxury." The restaurant is located in the middle of a mall-like shopping area. That wasn't a big deal to us, but if you need an "elevated" environment to eat at, this may not be for you. But the service and the food is outstanding and this is probably my favorite spot in Colorado. My thanks to everyone who works here for giving us a fantastic anniversary experience!“
“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!“
“I first heard of Wellness Sushi when they sold their products at Nooch Market (RIP), but never had a chance to try it until last night. I loved everything I ordered, Krunchy Krab, Ohnagi Roll, and Love in the Edo. I can't wait to go back again!“
“Our server Tommy was incredible. He was very outgoing and welcoming but gave us our space at the table. He was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful with chocie of dish.Vegetarian options: There were a few versions of every dishDietary restrictions: NoneParking: 1-2 dollars or valetKid-friendliness: Games“
“Great patio space for nice days. We went on Sunday later in the afternoon and there were plenty of open tables. We enjoyed fresh fish and a flavorful roll. I drank an iced and my husband got the margarita. My only complaint was that the margarita seemed small due to the glass being filled up just halfway. The restaurant is in a fantastic area! Definitely recommend visiting to eat/drink.“
“Always friendly, always knowledgeable, Billy’s staff does a phenomenal job every time to make sure all guests have a memorable experience. This place is great for a date night, Dim Sum Brunch with friends and family, or laughs for comedy on the weekends. I can’t say enough good things about this place. Definitely make it a stop on your Denver adventure.“
“My boyfriend and I came in on Saturday night at around 7:00 PM and had the best time, our server Madi V. was amazing! She was so kind, welcoming, and efficient, and went above and beyond to make sure we always had everything we needed even though it was clearly a busy night. I would come back any time for the good sushi and great service.“
“Second time eating here--would definitely recommend! Lovely service, chefs, and environment. Will always recommend their Manhattan and of course, any of the chef specials! Looking forward to my next visit with chefs, Larry and Marin! Excited to try Omakase!“
“This place is perfect. Quick friendly service, fresh fish, and honestly great prices for Denver. Amazing spicy tuna on crispy rice appetizer, light, perfect gyoza, delicious rolls. Get the spicy scallop maki roll. 10/10Vegetarian options: Seaweed salad, tempura, veggie rolls!Kid-friendliness: Not too fancy or stuffy- perfect for kids to join“
“Went to grab an order for dinner. When I say this is THE BEST sushi I’ve had just moved to the area and this will be my go to spot! The fried sushi is TOP TIER ?Definitely Recommend! If you’re in a hurry I would advise a pick up order it was SUPER Packed and busy the night I went in. But that’s a good thing! However it was a little cramped for my taste but otherwise 5/5 ⭐️“
“This is a pretty good Izakaya in Denver. The decor and atmosphere does give off a vibe that you get if you ever visit Japan. I came when they were busy and the staff was nice and doing their best to turn over tables. The parking lot outside I suspect is a problem during busy hours, but I was lucky enough to snag a spot. I ordered the Katsu Curry, which was a good helping of both. If ever I am in town for work and want some Japanese, I'll stop by here and support.“
“The rolls were amazing and the service was even better! Jessica our waitress was so kind and make the experience wonderful, and then they also have a fabulous bartender Ivy that made a perfect mock-tail and old fashioned! We can't wait to come back“
“AMAZING GLUTEN FREE SUSHI! The only thing better than the food was our server Rex. Rex was working hard, constantly moving and checking in on tables to see if anyone needed anything. He was a genuine kind and smiling face throughout the entire meal.Every roll was spectacular in appearance and taste. I haven’t had such great service and food in a long time.I was pleasantly surprised to find so many gluten free options! They have gluten free soy sauce (tamari) and many rolls can be made gluten free. Beautiful establishment and staff! I will be coming here again!“
“So glad to find this spot in Denver when traveling here. Came here with my two boys and everyone loved it. Sushi was really great and the ramen was outstanding as well. Tonkotsu broth tasted phenomenal and some of the best noodles I’ve ever had. Ramen egg was perfection. The only miss was the pork chasu, rather thin and chewy instead of a thick cut marinated melt in your mouth kind of pork belly. But I’d still get this ramen at least once a week if i lived close by, it’s authentic and superb. They even had a great Japanese IPA on hand. Thanks for the wonderful meal!“
“Great atmosphere, attentive and caring staff, and even better food!I was blown away by the presentation. The sushi was laid out on a boat with a mini ice sculpture and smoky dry ice.Mika Sushi is a must if you love sushi! I will definitely be back!“
“We just never seem to get enough of this place, they're so attentive and nice. The food is just always ? even better than the previous visit. I tried the wonton soup today it's just so flavorful has this smoky and spice to it. IT was INCREDIBLY GOOD!“
“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!“
“Can’t say enough good things about this place. We went for dinner and we had the most amazing knowledgeable server. We decided to let him guide our meal with his suggestions on what is popular and we had no regrets! Rarely do I enjoy every bite of a meal like this. Highly recommend you try this strategy if the budget allows! Excellent ?“
“My husband and I went to lunch here. I had been wanting to try. And I’m so happy we did! This will definitely be a place we come often. All the food was fresh and delicious. The atmosphere is nice. Restaurant is clean. Staff was very nice. And we loved that gratuity was included already.“
“Hands down, *BEST SUSHI RESTAURANT IN DENVER!* OUR server Ashton was amazing! And that AGM Steph (I think) LOVE ❤️ ? W e had no idea it was prom weekend. ? We were thinking we were going to have to go food and eat the sushi in our truck! Nope, Steph to the rescue! The service and food were impeccable! Drove from Vail for this! Its so dang good! GET U SOME BLUE! AMAZING!“
“Have been for the lunch special many times now, 3 rolls for $16. Always fresh, never had a bad piece. Never anyone in the place but it’s still somehow one of the freshest sushi spots in the area. Specialty rolls are also awesome. Such a good unassuming place always coming back!“
“It has the most delicious Japanese food and most notably, great hospitality. If you're in Denver, this is the place to go for a delicious meal. Please call ahead for reservations. My friends rave about the food here. Don't forget to try the chocolate cake and pineapple flip cake. We will probably go back tonight because we loved it so much. I had the tofu steak and spicy garlic edema beans. Gyoza, paneo oysters, baby back ribs and teriyaki chicken. The sushi rolls were good too!“
“My first time tried Sawara Sushi!! Very very satisfied!! Great service, even greater food!! I would say one of the best sushi spot in Denver in terms of food quality, taste, presentation, and definitely service. Very kind and friendly server, and from the menus that we ordered, the rolls and the sashimi, they are amazing!! Totally recommending this place for sure and definitely will return for sushi craves for sure!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“New spot open at 16th & Wewatta downtown -- and I'm always happy to have more sushi around! It's hard with competition like Blue Sushi Sake Grill just a few blocks away -- but here's how I think they stack up. I wish there were more fish/sashimi items on happy hour here (not just the tower and the basic rolls) -- but I also really like the quality of the fish here and availability of things like toro (tuna belly) and yellowtail belly -- neither of which Blue Sushi has. The chef's choice sashimi is a little pricy at $50, but the mega lobster roll is totally worth the $36 if you consider the entire lobster tail inside. Some deets and prices below... LUNCH - Mon-Fri 11am-2pm DINNER - Sun-Thu 4-10pm / Fri & Sat 4-11pm HAPPY HOUR is daily 4-6pm and includes $3 off signature cocktails, $5 hot or cold house sake, $5 Japanese draft beers, $5 house wine, 12 sushi towers (salmon and/or tuna), $5-12 hot bites, and 2 basic rolls for $18. Lunch specials include a sashimi lunch ($25), nigiri & roll combo ($20), sashimi & nigiri combo ($25), poke bowl ($22), spicy chicken or teriyaki bowl ($20), beef bulgogi bowl ($20), and chirashi bowl ($25). Some of my favorite bites I had here: yellowtail sashimi ($20), chef's choice sashimi ($50), and mega lobster roll ($36, but that's with a whole lobster tail in there). You also can't go wrong ordering your favorite sushi/sashimi a la carte -- and I highly recommend the toro (tuna belly) and yellowtail belly! Those aren't cuts everyone carries. Tasty non-fish items are also available, like the kobe hot rock ($30) and wagyu roll (seared table-side, $36).“
“Decent food, granted we gotntgere at midnight. So thank you for being open late. I got the Chicken Fried rice and we ate some Rolls. Rolls were small and ok flavor. Chicken fried rice was good. Honestly, that late we were happy to get food. Drinks and the staff were amazing.“
“I came here yesterday with my family. It was my birthday. The food was so delicious, and service was so great! (I forgot to ask her name). My grandma really love the atmosphere of the restaurant. She decided to take a shot of sake because the place gave her a good mood. Anyway, thank you!“
“Sushi is good. Service is great. Parking is plenty. We ordered a few sushi rolls (B1, 29th, Bronco) and Otoro. I ordered the Otoro based on a review. It was buttery and fresh. We opted to sit at the bar and watch the sushi preparation. We're glad Blue Fin is close to home.“
“The sashimi was delicious but the rest of the dishes that we ordered weren’t all that interesting or well executed.Lighting and aesthetic are well done however the restaurant as a whole simply feels like a place to see and be seen. Bumping house music on a Tuesday... personally not my vibe.For the price and atmosphere I would like a higher level of service and knowledge of the menu from my server. I am a big dessert person, but unfortunately none of the dessert options were all that intriguing and the one we had felt like a total afterthought.. it simply wasn't well done.Overall delicious sashimi, but I wouldn't rush back.“
“We had such a great time a Hapa. We came here on a big work lunch outing. There were maybe 11 of us. Service was excellent. Couldn’t have been better. The appetizers and sushi were very very good. Sashimi was extremely good and fresh for the price. The cuts were thick. I even appreciated all of the wasabi since sushi places usually don’t give enough. I will be back!!“
“A Flavorful Escape in Montclair, DenverStep into a world of flavor at Kassai Sushi, nestled in Denver's charming Montclair neighborhood. This zen oasis offers a modern twist on classic sushi favorites, served with a smile.The Spider Roll, a crispy delight of soft-shell crab, and the Spicy Shrimp Roll with just the right kick, were our favorites. Paired with the comforting warmth of their Miso Soup, it was a meal to remember.So good, we found ourselves back the next day! Whether you're a sushi pro or a newbie, Kassai Sushi is a must-visit for its friendly service, incredible food, and serene vibe.Kid-friendliness: We brought our 8 month old.“
“We enjoyed our lunch at Osaka Sushi, the quality food and ambiance was great. The staffs are helpful. They have a wide variety of sushi, rolls and all other Japanese foods. I would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian choicesDietary restrictions: Vegetarian menu availableParking: No problem finding a parking spot in the lotKid-friendliness: Definitely kids friendly and they have kids menu tooWheelchair accessibility: Easy accessibility for people on wheelchairs“
“Recently visited JJ's Bistro and was thoroughly impressed. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming. We started with the Wontons, which were flavorful and delicious. We ordered the chicken lo mein, orange chicken, and broccoli beef. The ingredients were fresh, and the seasoning was spot-on. The waiter was super friendly and funny, making our dining experience even more pleasant. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Chinese cuisine. It is a hidden gem!“
“We went for happy hour and had a great time! We went downstairs to the bar and the service was awesome! Friendly staff and laid back atmosphere. We ordered sushi and it came out super quick and we ate it super quick. We'll definitely visit again!“
“From looking at earlier reviews, it sounds like this place went through some changes, and the recent reviews are deservedly excellent. The sushi we ordered was the best I've had on the Front Range - no competition. We don't live in Denver, but if we did this, we would immediately become our go-to spot. The rice was perfect, and the balance of rice to fish/veg in the rolls was ideal. 10 of 10 recommend!Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options. A friend dining with us got a delicious tofu dish with a peanut based sauce and fresh steamed broccoli. Beautiful and tasty.“
“Cute spot on the smaller side. There’s a sushi bar where you can see the staff at work. I used to live next door and boy way I spoiled. Still my preferred sushi in the area despite being ~20 mins away now.I get takeout both in person and delivery. Everything is always packaged so considerately. They include dividers and place hot food on the top - heat rises!I’ve tried a number of special rolls. The simple rolls are delicious as well. Fish always tastes fresh not fishy. Love the tempura veggies!Would highly recommend!Parking: Busy spot but it’s not hard to pull up for takeout. Parking for sit down may not be super close, but it’s residential so you’ll likely find something just may have to walk a bit. Much harder on weekend nights.“
“Casual sushi restaurant for a decent price and attentive staff. The waitress got our order wrong but we were okay keeping what was prepared, plated and brought out to us. We were served the sweetheart, denver and philly roll. The sushi was good, but nothing to write home about.“
“Delicious sushi place! The outside looked a little run down but the inside is so nice! Our waitress was very attentive! Loved everything about our meal! The miso soup was basic but still super delicious! I loved the dessert that came at the end - sliced oranges presented in a nice manner!“
“We were at the Cherry Blossom Festival and wanted to continue our Japanese cultural experience. We looked up online nearby restaurants… we called and were greeted VERY warmly and inviting and walked here. We had a fantastic culinary dining experience!! Would definitely recommend this restaurant and we will be back soon!! Thank you!!“
“We usually eat at the P.F. Chang's in Lakewood, but we were close to the Northfield area so stopped in to eat at the Northfield restaurant & boy what a nice difference....so much better at the Northfield Restaurant. This is probably our new favorite PF Chang's. Our waiter Zeke was fantastic...super friendly & provided great service. I looked around the restaurant & seemed like all of the employees (hostesses, bartenders, wait staff) were smiling & very professional. We had the GF chicken lettuce wraps & the GF Singapore noodles with just chicken & both were very very good...the noodle dish was a tad spicy but I'm sure that if you ask for less spice they would tone it down. All in all, an excellent waiter, excellent food . We will definitely be back & ask for Zeke if he is available.“
“I was craving Asian food and great chicken fried rice so me, my hubby and mother in law drove from Parker all the way down to Northville to get some Asian cuisine. I think their specialty is the fried rice and I order my chicken well done but please of all they serve Pepsi products. Kid friendly for sure. The salmon could be better, maybe it’s the cut of the fish. My husband enjoyed the General Lees chicken - he said it was just ok - a little too sweet and needed more spice, more rice but he ate it - he doesn’t waste food. Try it for yourself and it makes for a great night or the entire family.“
“This place is a gem. The staff were friendly, the food fresh and delicious and the vibe is awesome. The funky colors and booths make it feel more like a diner than a sushi place. I am usually hesitant about conveyor belt sushi. But since this place is small the sushi either gets claimed or removed easily. Plus you can see into the kitchen and I always like the transparency that allows.Parking: Tough to find in that part of town! Be careful the streets are tricky“
“My daughter and I are in the area on vacation and we wanted a unique dining experience. We had too much fun here. What a fun experience. We love trains and it's amusing to have your food delivered to you on our train. The sushi chefs are super fast and our server was attentive. The sushi was really good.“
“My BFF & I have been looking for a new sushi spot after Namiko's in Arvada closed. I think we found it! All the food we ordered came out pretty quickly, was fresh and beautifully plated. The restaurant itself is beautiful & clean. I definitely recommend stopping in.Parking: It's on a small strip of local shops, breweries & restaurants so you have to park usually a block away.Kid-friendliness: We brought a 3 year old. No kids menu but you may be able to find something they like as long as you don't have a picky eater. They also have highchairs (assuming) and booster seats (100% can confirm).“
“I've always ordered takeout, and the service has been very friendly and the place looks amazing inside!! I'm addicted to their Hawaii Roll! I always order that and one other roll, I can't wait to eat at the actual establishment!Parking: You can park in the back but it's difficult since there are other dining areas in the corner. Along with other businesses.Wheelchair accessibility: Come from Broadway to gain easier access, instead of coming from Lincoln.“
“I agree with the comments on other reviews regarding atmosphere here. It’s a very simple vibe, but it doesn’t affect the quality of food. I do think the other comments about the price are subjective as the prices on the menu range from $4 to $16.95. To me, that’s common amongst sushi and Japanese restaurants. Overall I’m pleased with the quality and agree with the cost of the food.“
“Sat at the bar tonight and had the best bartending experience I have had in a while. I believe her name was Christina, but regardless, she made my upsetting week 10X better. She was attentive, efficient, and poured delicious drinks. Thank you Christina for turning my week around and providing a great experience!“
“Excellent hand rolls and friendly staff. Counter seating only makes it a fun and semi intimate vibe. Don’t order the miso or edamame bc both came out cold but otherwise the food is phenomenal. My wife like this place and the sister restaurant for date nights.“
“I really enjoyed lunch here on a Friday afternoon. We got here a little after 1pm and enjoyed it thoroughly. I had their sushi lunch special and my partner had the Hibachi. Both are fantastic. We will definitely be back ?Parking: They do have parking. It's around the back.“
“My #1 lunch spot while on Auraria Campus. Most meals consist of a bed of rice with some kind of meat and sauce over it, my personal favorite being the Spammy Eggs with Spicy Mayo. Food is delicious, but best part is most meals have a final cost of 6-8$ including tax.There are some more expensive options, but I never get them cause price and speed are the main draws in my opinion.“
“Sit at the bar and splurge on the Omakase experience. Worth it. Don't think about what you want, just let the chef decide for you. You will never be disappointed!Dietary restrictions: You can tell your chef any restrictions and they will work around youParking: $5 valet“
