    Came here as a farewell send off to a good friend/coworker who this is their favorite bar and this place did not disappoint! I ordered the razorgirl because it had peach and cranberry so I knew it would sweet and it was! So good it was easy to drink and it was strong! I had to order some food after drinking it so I chose the fried dumplings and those were perfect! Crispy yet soft and packed with flavor! They were so good I devoured them quickly and left me wanting more! We really enjoyed our time, the atmosphere is casual and makes for easy conversations. The staff were great making sure we had everything we need, checking on us multiple times. I definitely will be back to try more drinks and food!

    Came with a friend while her phone was dead. They had no physical menus for her to look at, but offered to charge her phone at least. This place is listed as a sushi restaurant and it's not; there's one sushi roll. There's like tops 15 things on the menu. I don't even understand why it is listed as anything more than a Japanese bar with some random Asian food.

    Come early, it gets busy and not an overly large place. Anime decor, unique drinks and food! Edamame dip is fireee. Great chill vibe, have gone on a few dates here. Definitely recommend!

    Tempura Tofu Rice Bowl

    This was my second time visiting and I love it! First off it has a unique vibe. I've read it described as cyberpunk. I think that's accurate. I got a lychee mocktail which I loved. Also, they had a special shrimp lettuce wrap thing and that was amazing! The shrimp were fried well but not heavy and the sauce on it was good. Went well with the lettuce! I also enjoyed the tempura tofu bowl. The sauce is a bit on the sweet side for me but still really tasty and the mushrooms add a great flavor too. Finally I loved the combo rice bowl we got with both seared ahi tuna and salmon sashimi. Definitely worth visiting! And yes the service is worth mentioning too.

    Anywhere that plays one piece on the wall is ok in my book. Drinks were rock solid! And food was great, but I was too drunk to take a steady photo.

    I knew I was going to love this spot the second I walked in. I was so very right with that initial feeling. The staff were absolutely so friendly. Everyone seemed to help everyone, loved seeing that. The food was delicious. My friend and I both ordered miso soups (which came with an onion ring each. Such a fun addition), the pickled cucumbers and some gyoza to share. It all was delicious. Oh! And we ordered peach izeko sparkling sake jelly shots. Our favorite of the night. We each got two and if we had more time, proooobably would have ordered a few more. They were so tasty and the texture was so fun! Can't wait to bring my husband here.

    Cyberpunk izakaya?!? We were ecstatic when we learned about this place, and it did not disappoint! Ambiance was so fun and service was great. The drink menu had unique options that were really good. Drinks were really well priced as well! If we lived here, we'd be regulars!

    I can't believe I waited so long to check this place out! *Five stars all around* Gyoza - They were amazing, so amazing that we ordered a second round after our entrees. They were evenly fried and had a really good seasoning on the outside. Unagi bowl - A+. It had a good amount of eel and goodies. All of the flavors complimented each other. Decon Fakey 180 - A+. The shrimp tempura were so good that I wished we added extra shrimp to the bowl. The service was great! The pricing was reasonable. The cyberpunk theme was fun and interesting. The music was just the right volume. Highly recommend.

    This normally isn't my type of food but this was the only last minute option in a Friday night with immediate seating. The menu is very big but everything we had was REALLY good! I'm glad we tried something new. My son loved the dumplings. The miso soup and sushi was great and all the bowls were excellent. The service was also outstanding!

    The razorgirl. Yum!
    Kathryn O.

    My husband is from Chiba, so when we were visiting the Springs and he saw the sign for Chiba Bar, we had to stop in. It turned out to be a cyberpunk, anime themed bar with very tasty drinks and Japanese snacks. The bar is based on the book Neuromancer. My geeky heart was delighted. I had the razorgirl to drink, and we had takoyaki and gyoza for snacks. The takoyaki were amazing. The gyoza were a little overcooked but the flavor was good. I love the ambiance here; the art is awesome and the anime and campy movies on the screens is a blast. It's loud, but that's what I'd expect. Everyone was having a lot of fun. The servers are great. The owner came over to chat and he's very friendly. Everyone was busy but service was prompt and the drinks are great. Love it here!

    Edamame dip
    A B.

    I didn't set out for a vegetarian meal, but who knew edamame dip and miso soup could be so flavorful? I ate so much I didn't leave any room for an entree. The bartender serving was attentive, and the place was dimly lit for a hideaway feel with fun music, good sake and cocktail selections and a crowd as eclectic as its decor and overall vibe. Great find!

The vibe here is of a japanese izakaya, though not a super traditional one, with sake bombs and everything. That said, the food is definitely on the pricier side, though extremely delicious. My typical go to is on of the salad. Now salads typically are not standout at most restaurants, but the ones at Kawa Ni just hits different. Both the red cabbage and pear salad and the brocolli salad are delicious and the portion is massive, easily enough for a table of 4 to share. For apps and shareable entrees, you can't go wrong here. The build your own tuna temaki hand rolls can easily be shared and the tuna is so fresh and well seasoned. The szechuan dumplings are delicious, as is the curry onigiri and the bao bun. The Dan Dan noodle, kimchi Carbonara, and their tonkotsu ramen are also amazing, and, with the exception of the tonkotsu ramen, can easily be shared. I would highly recommend other seasonal dishes as well, such as the coconut swordfish or chicken katsu parm. However, one of my absolute favorite dish here is the ochazuke. It's basically grilled fish over rice in a warm green tea dashi. It's so comforting, especially on a cold night, and a dish that I return to time and time again. Overall, Kawa Ni is an amazing japanese restaurant. Come for the food and just make sure you get a sake bomb and ask for the gong when you do.

The vibe is fast and loud, but the servers are super efficient and communicative. I really liked the tokidoki roll and hamachikama. Hard to go wrong with those! The hamachi kama was HUGE.

Their edamame is also very spicy and quite good -- not your typical simply salted edamame. One thing I wouldn't order - the kimchi fried rice.

Very Japanese like feeling with knick knacks every where with banners, akachõchin. Sushi bar takes one side and also a small bar to the back. Drink menu featured several imported Japanese bottled beers on top of the common ones at reasonable price. Ended up getting the house salad, chicken yakitori, spicy tonkatsu ramen and yaki ika. All tasted good, no complaints. Spicy tonkatsu ramen had rich broth, chatsu was grilled and plenty. Repeat

    Uchi is dangerous for people like me…read more Not because of the raw fish. Because the place understands seduction. I've been eating at Uchi since it opened in Denver and today it still carries that same intoxicating balance of precision, warmth, swagger, and restraint. The room itself glows instead of shouts. Wood slats divide the dining room into little private theaters while the sushi counter hums with focused choreography. Expert hands moving constantly. Rice. Fish. Quiet communication. Tiny acts of discipline repeated hundreds of times a night. I sat down intending to have a civilized happy hour. That plan lasted maybe twelve minutes. The kurodai crudo arrived first. Gooseberry, leche de tigre, candied garlic. Bright, sharp, and alive. This is the kind of starter that wakes up your entire palate and you are reminded that you will absolutely be spending more money than originally intended. Next was the bincho temaki: cool albacore, kimchi, avocado, and a vividly garish orange sauce with some heat to keep the richness from becoming too much. Uchi understands something many restaurants don't: luxuriousness needs balance. Fatty fish without acid, spice, crunch, or brightness is palate exhaustion. And then one after another the deliciousness continued: the oysters were cold and perfect with cucumber, calamansi vinegar, and umeboshi. The day boat scallop nigiri nearly stopped time altogether. Just sweet scallops, rice, citrus, a little finishing salt. Incréable. Or whatever the French word is for "I briefly forgot my own name." And somewhere during martini number one, the staff adopted me. Apparently Uchi keeps notes on guests. Mine, I was told, says I'm "nice and a good eater," which may be the most flattering thing anyone has said to me in months. Suddenly more dishes started appearing. Gifted nigiri. Ikura glowing like little amber jewels (my favorite). A ridiculous and completely delicious carrot toro maki with green chili crunch and enough heat underneath the richness to make the whole thing flirt openly with your mouth. At one point the bartenders literally invented a "walu walu shot" on the fly just because the mood had drifted into improvisational chaos. This was somewhere between oyster shooter, seafood dare, and excellent bad decisions. Meanwhile, the guests next to me started talking to me and the entire energy of the evening shifted into communal sushi-bar joy. Suddenly we were all reacting to dishes, laughing, comparing bites, participating in the same ecosystem of salt, fish, alcohol, and temporary human connection. This is the real thing Uchi sells. Not merely sushi. Attention. Rhythm. Atmosphere. Memory. The feeling of being folded into a beautifully functioning machine dedicated entirely to pleasure. And yes, by the end I was emotional enough to remember being 20 years old eating sushi with an older woman named Alana who wore real fur and introduced me to this whole sensual adult world in the first place. That is what a martini and exceptional nigiri will do to a man. The final bill before tip was somehow only $141, which honestly feels mathematically impossible considering I briefly entered a spiritual relationship with the sushi counter. I tipped $50 because at that point we were basically family. Uchi remains one of the sexiest restaurants in Denver. Not performatively sexy. Not influencer sexy. Actually sexy. Confident. Observant. Generous. Precise. And just dangerous enough to make you order one more thing. Amazing dining experience.
