Izakaya Den

1518 S. Pearl St.

Denver, CO 80210

303-777-0691
Website

Izakaya Den's menu is impossible, ridiculous, amazing, awe-inspiring and should never work in a million years, but somehow it does. At its core, it's a fusion menu. A Japanese-Mediterranean fusion menu (with hints of northern Spain and France and America shot through it like rogue strands of culinary DNA). The room is large and beautiful; the staff both competent and confident, knowing the menu, sake list and lore of the house inside and out. A night at Izakya Den can be so perfect, you may never want to leave. - Jason Sheehan

The Inside Word on Izakaya Den

BDP

Sushi Den is one of the best restaurants in Denver, and Izakaya is even better. They are on the same street and at least for now, people still wait for a table at Sushi Den when you can walk right in to Izakaya. Beautiful space, same quality of service, excellent Japanese cuisine.

My favorite restaurant in Denver!!

Add yourself to the Sushi Den queue on busy nights and hit this place for a drink until the giant black box starts blinking and vibrating.
