It was my first time at this location. Our server Lily was incredible. She was so sweet and helpful. We weren’t sure what rolls to get and she offered awesome recommendation. Personally, I really enjoyed the Diablo roll. Would definitely come back.

Freshest fish and best tasting sushi I have had in Colorado. Delicious food, wonderful ambience. Smaller, more intimate space. Parking was easy, nice location but the signage for the restaurant is difficult to see so I walked past it the first time.

We decide to come on Holy Thursday as we were starving when we arrived during g lent location and service were excellent. But Sashimi and rolls were ok, except 1. What we paid was ridiculous for what we got. Definitely overpriced.

Went for the first time with my girlfriend for a nice sushi dinner. Service and greeting was good. Sat a little tight. When we went to give our sushi order paper to our waitress, she promptly looked it up and down and told us that it was too much, and removed two of our rolls from our order. We only ordered 4 rolls and some nigiri, and a seaweed salad before that. Even if that is considered “too much”, it really wasn’t that much, and in the end we are the paying customer AND wouldn’t you want the customer to pay more? Idk maybe I’m being extra, but it was definitely done a little rudely and made us feel shameful for ordering. Definitely made us feel uncomfortable as we were around a bunch of people and made us feel like we did something wrong when 4 rolls and some nigiri is really not that much sushi lol.

I’ll never come here again. The best thing is fried rice….and I don’t like fried rice. King Soopers has better sushi than this. The A5 is not true A5. It’s a knock off. Foie gras is non existent. It came in crumbles. Everything was tasteless (besides the fried rice). Don’t get the sushi, don’t get the ramen, don’t get anything here. Trash. Everything was bad. Trash trash trash. Bad. Did I mention it was bad? It’s overpriced and trash. Bye forever.

We tried a lot of things including the Oysters (YUMMY!!) a roll with scallops and several other things. All of it was Delicious!!Parking: There is free parking but it’s best for smaller vehicles. Otherwise there is a pay to park lot across the street.

Dear God, this place is amazing. Service is always on point. Love the white linen atmosphere. The toro and tuna sashimi dishes are perfectly prepared. I could fill up on just the nigiri section alone!The fried rice the the literal best I've ever had. Good lord, the running egg there is so good. Grilled Artichoke, also bomb. Oyster with a runny Quail Egg, also fire. Love the snake river foie gras and mis ramen. Will be back!

My recent visit to Sushi Sasa was terrible, primarily due to the service. As soon as we walked in, I could tell the waitress or manager wasn't giving us a warm welcome. The rest of the staff seemed uninterested, and that feeling lasted the whole meal.While the sushi was okay, it wasn't enough to make up for the rotten service. Customer service is more than just bringing food to a table. It also means making the restaurant feel welcoming and making sure customers are happy, which is where Sushi Sasa really fell short.I'm a Colorado native, and out of my 40 years of dining, this experience was the most bizarre. The employees must have read a book on how to provide a pleasant dining experience and then did the exact opposite. In the future, customers may consider visiting different restaurants for a more enjoyable sushi experience. Advice for management: train your staff or clean house and start over.

I started coming to Sasa 15 years ago and would sit st the bar and chat with Wayne. I have always loved it here. So after I moved out of Colorado I was excited to come back. I promised my friends that it’s the best Sushi spot in Denver.I was absolutely embarrassed when we were treated so badly by these young, totally rude employees. Three different employees all delivered the same, sad, apathetic experience.After being seated downstairs in an awkwardly quiet “lounge” my friend asked if there is a bathroom downstairs. The bartender says “yes” hardly looking up and not even bothering to offer some basic directions. That’s one of many weird interactions we had with these people. It’s crazy how the culture has changed.Sadly I’m done recommending this place. Looking forward to trying Uchi.Wayne, you need to do a better job at hiring and leading your team. Maybe read Danny Meyer’s book. Do something. This place has turned j to such a massive disappointment.

Do not order too quickly, because you will want to linger. Do not miss the specials; beyond outstanding sushi, the highlights of tonight's visit were the wagyu and also the eggplant buns.

When did Sushi restaurants start having BBQ on appetizer list? 2 dollars for pot of tea ? I paid over 200 dollars for dinner for two excluding tip and that is what I got . Luke warm tea I have to serve myself. Futomaki in general are big roll but their version of that is a 1 1/4 inch small roll. Creative some are but to pay 20 dollars a roll was too much. I specifically said it was my son’s 30 th birthday dinner and there was not even a scoop of ice cream with a candle. What a service. I would have added more on tips if there was something. How much does it cost to the restaurant to give a scoop of ice cream or mochi?? The whole restaurant cater to many many tables thus there no feeling of authentic sushi bar . Just FYI this suppose to be high end and they can’t even show fish they cut and serve in the case where we normally see at good sushi restaurant . Good luck surviving !

Went here for late lunch as they were still open. Used to come regularly but that was over 10 years ago. Glad to see they are still doing lunch service and since we didn't get there until 2pm (they close at 2:30), we had ample parking in the lot behind the building.My mom had their Nabeyaki Udon which was served nice and hot with lots of chicken, noodles and a side of shrimp, potato and zucchini tempura.We also had their shishito pepper appetizer, cooked just right, sprinkled with sesame seeds and served with an unnecessary side of mayo.We also got their Diablo Roll (not at all spicy) & their Zen Spicy Salmon (also not spicy at all). Both tasted fresh and tasty albeit a little expensive for the size but that seems to be restaurant prices these days...Service was great, we had a lovely time chatting with our waitress and she never made us feel rushed even though we were the last people there.Will definitely be back when we're in the area.
