“I've had great lunches here. The Spicy Chicken Terryaki and Katsu bowl really filled me up this time. Normally, I get the spicy chicken terryaki bowl, which comes with a choice of brown or white rice and vegetables. Whether I'm picking up or eating in, the service here is fast, and foods always hot. A quick bite type of vibe. Good seating in this location, and would make a great place for hangry people..like my girlfriend. If you're coming back from the mountains on I-70, then definitely come get some chicken and rice here (no alcohol). It's right off the highway.“
“IN CRE DI BLE. I went here on a date with a sushi chef. We got the chef special 10 course meal, which was perfect!the waiter seemed thoroughly involved in helping choose too, on how it’s presented, customizing to us.Each dish was beautiful, and amazing. Oysters, sashimi, nigiri, steak, and more. Several dishes I thought “this is the best meal Ive ever had”. The layers of flavor and not a single thing fishy or overcooked.Interesting exploration of fusion too. Some felt traditional, while others were new explorations of flavor. It was again, INCREDIBLE.The portions were perfect. I wasn’t full/stuffed by the end either. They plated it wonderfully for 2 people. So nice!my date thought most were very very good! There was just 1-2 they he thought we not up to par, but still good.Every waiter & runner was soooooo knowledgable. Apparently they have to take a big test before serving. It showed!, one of the best meals Ive ever had! Well done!“
“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!“
“We LOVE this place! Everything we've tried is delicious. My older kiddo loves the hibachi chicken with extra yum-yum sauce. My younger one always gets the yaki soba noodles with chicken. I've had the chicken katsu curry, which was also amazing. My husband's and my favorite is the spicy tuna nachos - soooooooo good!“
“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!“
“Dewy was amazing. Knowledgeable, conversational and made the experience worthwhile. From the managers to staff everyone was attentive and we had a unique experience from the creative sushi to deserts. All made in house, fresh with a special touch we haven't see elsewhere. Highly recommend. Pricing is $$$ for this experience.“
“There are sushi restaurants, and then there’s Hapa. I went here for weekend happy hour lunch and enjoyed some delicious and delightfully named rolls, miso soup, and tea. Tommy, our server, was super attentive and prompt and charming. Would gladly give Hapa more of my money ?“
“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.“
“First off, I had just getting back from Japan and was craving Japanese food. Thanks to Google and read it, found this gem. Food was extremely flavorful, and the environment was outstanding. In the garden, there was even a sign that said quiet please. I will definitely be returning.It's delicious! Thank you very much.“
“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“
“So glad to have OTOTO back again after an extended closing. It is a great changeup to older siblings, Sushi Den & Izakaya. Service was outstanding. The space is a bit packed but can be cozy from the right angles. Very much recommend the miso eggplant, black cod, robata pork belly, and the chicken karage. ALL GREAT! Takoyaki and squid were just ok.“
“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“
“We went for lunch. Their sushi is very good. They just opened and didn’t have nigiri on the menu, but they did make it upon request. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was nice. We will definitely be back for dinner to try their other entrees.“
“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!“
“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!“
“Wonderful Server I believe her name was Christina I'm not for sure but she was excellent we had a large party and she handled it like a professional. All of the sushi was excellent. The only gripe I had was we ordered the spicey edimame and it tasted very fishy... Other than that everything was great. I will be back I just won't be ordering the edimame next time.“
“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 ?“
“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!“
“The hospitality is top-notch. Seth was a great guide to walk us through the menu and how to comprehend the seemingly limitless options. Definitely I’m going to go back next time. I’m in Denver. If you’re craving Japanese barbecue just go.“
“I was pleasantly surprised to find that this establishment did NOT have regular "American" arcade games...all of the games are actually in Japanese!! It gives the place an entirely different feel, and it's fabulous! The bar serves a wide array of drinks, but they focus on saké drinks to keep with the atmosphere. They also have league e-sport competitions going on. This place is great, and I highly recommend for a night out of gaming.“
“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!“
“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!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“Very small intimate hand-roll sushi spot. Delicious. Always fresh. Each roll made as you finish the last. Friendly servers. Great wine, beer, saki, and whisky selection. It’s an our favorite spot! Make sure you get a Reservation!Dietary restrictions: Gluten and veggie friendly!“
“Best ramen ever. I am new to the whole real ramen thing but since I found NEKO Ramen & Rice. its literally all I'm in the mood to eat its both filling and decent priced. You get what you want the real ramen experience. If it was all you could eat I would have it everyday. It the bomb best place ever can't wait to go get more...!!!“
“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!“
“I am officially a fan of this place. My boyfriend and I went on a last minute late night date and we literally walked in 30 minutes before they closed. We were super apologetic and offered to leave but the lady inside insisted that we stayed. It was a slow night and we were the only ones there but they made sure to give us the best service and prepare our food quickly. Everything was super good and the atmosphere was very nice and relaxing for a date night. I loved their sushi and of course my boyfriend and I got gyoza too. Absolutely amazing service 10/10!“
“Kokoro is the best place in Denver to get authentic Japanese food. It is SO well priced and yummy. Brought my mom here when she visited (she lived in Japan for 18 years) and she absolutely loved it. Thank you, Kokoro! We will be customers forever!“
“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).“
“This place is amazing! The food was great and reasonably priced. Our waitress was very helpful. We had gluten free concerns and she helped us tremendously. Plus having her help commence our saki bombs was so exciting. I love this place and will be back!“
“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!“
“My husband and I have been dining here for the last couple of years and every time we are blown away by how delicious and consistent the food is! The service is top notch and the staff are always friendly. Recommend the shumai and salad as starters, also all of the sushi rolls are good quality fish. We have tried all of the ramens and have enjoyed each one- great flavor and authentic. Hands down one of the best restaurants in Denver.“
“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 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“
“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!“
“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.“
“Hidden at the back of the Sakura Square on 18th St. Reminds me of restaurants I grew on eating at back on Guam. The food was the closest to familiar flavors and comfort I've had since moving to CO. I brought my sister here while she was visiting and we both were happy with the nostalgia. We had the teriyaki chicken and chicken cutlet, both were better than the other Japanese restaurants I've been to here.“
“I might of found my new favorite sushi spot in CO! Everything was amazing. Service was great. We got the tuna special app which was delicious, crispy rice tuna, new style sashimi. Everything was great. My favorite had to of been the Kobe beef roll, I didn't know what was expecting but I was SO GOOD. All the rolls we got were honestly amazing.“
“The food here has always been quite good. The last couple times my family has come here The young woman working the counter, Mikayla, has been an absolute delight. She makes what is a good experience because of the food into a great experience because of the service.“
“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!!“
“It was our first time in and we had a great time! Quinn was super nice and gave us super helpful suggestions and super attentive really provided good service. The quality of the food was amazing and everything melted in your mouth 100/10! definitely will be coming back!!“
“An excellent value for the money. Do make sure you arrive early though as they don't take reservations, and you can be inline for a while. Once seated, service was prompt, the food was good, and there was plenty of it. I remember the skewers the best, which reminded me of some of the best street food I've had. I would go again, and would just get there on the earlier side.“
“We are picky about sushi, and this place is great. The dining room is really comfortable and intimate, the sushi chefs know what they are doing, and everything that we ordered was fresh and nummy. Our server did a great job and the miso soup is especially 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).“
“Had no expectations but turned out the food was great and worth the price (although a bit pricey) but the portion was decent to our preference. The place was quite and cozy, loving how they put dark themed interior so it gave this relaxing vibe. The staff was agile and friendly.However, do not expect the raw seafood would be very fresh because Golden is far from the bay but I gotta say that they keep the raw fish really well so no complaints, and Okinawa must be very decent compared to other sushi places around here. Keep up the good work!“
“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.“
“Tokyo Joe's is the best quick stop for delicious healthy food. In fact, there is NO selection they serve that is not mouth-watering and cravable. Lately, my crave has been one of their sushi sides that I dream about...Not telling, you'll just need to go there and try each one to find your fave crave! They also have no problem with reasonable substitution requests. The owner is a sweet down-to-earth guy with a brilliant mind for feeding the masses amazing food. My only gripe is Tokyo Joe's isnt all over the USA.“
