Sushi in Denver
Showing 23 - 44 of 55Hapa Sushi is essentially a fusion restaurant, offering sliders, nachos and Fuji-apple-and-bleu-cheese salads on the one hand, poke don, kanpyo maki and a small spread of sashimi on the other. It caters quite deliberately to rookies, actually naming a section of the menu “Beginner Sushi Rolls,” which is followed by “Intermediate” and then flows right […]
Mikuni Sushi is part of a California chain, the Applebee’s of sushi restaurants — big and bright and loud and filled with harmless toe-dunking excursions into Japanese cuisine punctuated by truly American things with vaguely goofy names. It also has a wheel you can spin on your birthday for a chance to win free baseball […]
Go Fish is an outgrowth of the Spicy Basil a couple of doors down, which means you can now get Thai-Chinese on one corner, Japanese-American on the other. This is a simple and uncomplicated sushi bar and Japanese restaurant for neighbors, for anyone looking for a little miso soup, a couple of handrolls and a […]
The interior of Sushi Uokura incongruously recalls the most casual of beach houses, and the sushi is excellent, without an ounce of the precious pretension that’s befallen so many Denver favorites. The eatery offers all-you-can-eat sushi and simple rice bowls at lunchtime and a more elaborate spread and selection at dinner — but it’s all […]
The sushi here is excellent, the service friendly and inviting. And the restaurant is justly famed for its all-you-can-eat lunch and dinner, a screaming deal served every day. But the best thing about Sushi Katsu is that it has the feel of a place where it’s easy to become a regular – a sushi bar […]
More than two decades passed before Sushi Den owners Yasu and Toshi Kizaki decided to expand upon their successful sushi business, but when they did, they went big. While the word “izakaya” means little more than “bar and grill” in Japan, in Denver it has become synonymous with the same style, service and dedication to […]
Benihana is the Barnum & Bailey of Japanese food, an unabashedly corny and often embarrassing centerfold of eye-rolling wisecracks, theatrics and occasional mishaps from the knife-wielding teppenyaki chefs who elevate (some would say disintegrate) food into an entertainment form. But guess what? The food here is nothing to sneer at, and the fried rice – […]
Japango flies in fish daily to ensure that your meal includes the freshest catch available. The gorgeously decorated, lush interior and rich, delicious food are reflected in the price tag — but all things considered, you get what you pay for at Japango. The wine and sake lists are dynamic and affordable (and the sake […]
Anyone looking for unusual ethnic mash-ups, American style, will find them at Uoki, a combination Korean/Japanese restaurant and sushi bar with a menu that covers virtually all of the Asian comfort foods. Here you can make a meal of tekka maki, a bowl of excellent, thick and spicy green-curry soup with potatoes and carrots, and […]
Back in 2000, Land of Sushi opened in a strip mall across from what was then Southglenn Mall – now the Streets at SouthGlenn – and quickly made a splash. Over the years, the spot has just gotten better. While the seafood selection is impressive, the restaurant itself is comfortable but modest. But you’ll forget […]
Wayne Conwell has been slicing fish and finding new ways to upend Japanese tradition at Sushi Sasa since 2005. By synthesizing Western technique and current Denver tastes with the traditions of sushi that evolved in isolation long before it hit American shores, the chef has continued to stay relevant in a scene that shifts and […]
Blue Moon is rather pretty in a recycled way. The A-frame structure gives the place a pagoda feel that’s ideal for a roster of Asian dishes: Chinese egg rolls, Vietnamese spring rolls and Thai summer rolls, edamame and lo mein, Thai curries, kung pao chicken, lettuce wraps and beef in Sriracha. Everything is made fresh […]
In the afternoons, you might have Opal all to yourself — which means all the more offerings for you. The laundry list of specials includes two-for-one deals on nigiri and hand rolls, two-for-one hot sake, four-dollar martinis, three-dollar champagne, big Kirins for just $2.50 — and the incongruous dollar Coronas. Don’t ask why, just enjoy. […]

Fontana Sushi, a Washington Park staple, has been serving tasty sushi in a laid-back dining room since 1999. In addition to sushi and sashimi, diners can also pick up entrees such as chicken curry rice and tonkatsu ramen.

Brothers Quiang and Sky Chen own this Fontana Sushi, the only link in a chain otherwise belonging to Kevin Lin. Wanting a place where they could offer both the authentic Japanese gyoza, soba, katsu and tempura that form the street-food backbone of their native cuisine as well as a spread of Tokyo new-wave dishes, the […]
This is the first and most expansive of three Tuk Tuk eateries to translate the Thai street-food concept into American fast food. The dishes all celebrate freshness, flavors, textures and colors, with an emphasis on noodle bowls, grilled or barbecued meat and chopped-to-order salads. Spend a few minutes with the sushi menu as well, which […]
Jason’s Thai Asian Bistro is a clean, updated space in an otherwise seedy South University strip mall. The comprehensive eatery offers dine-in, carry-out and delivery service, beer and wine, and an Asian fusion menu of dishes from Thailand, Japan, China and Vietnam. Starters include summer rolls and edamame, seaweed salad and miso soup, while entrees […]
