    The sides and apps were amazing! The sushi, mid. The parking is horrible! It's a small/medium lot that shares with the surrounding businesses. Try to carpool or go on a weekday when it's less crowded. I will start by saying, sushi is not my favorite thing but my friends love sushi and for all you can eat pricing with plenty of apps to choose from I thought it would be fun to go. We joined the virtual waitlist through Yelp and just kept an eye on it. When we arrived we were seated immediately. Our waiter explained how it worked and we began ordering. I started with the steak hibachi and a side of fries! The hibachi was good! Nice flavors and good temperature. The fries were so crispy! I love a crispy fry! I also got a small ramen and it was flavorful and tasted amazing! The sushi rolls were pretty big! My friends said it was too rice heavy and the fish was a little squishy. Since I don't eat sushi I couldn't tell the difference when I tasted it so I took their word on it. At one point our waitress forgot to check on us so we couldn't order more food till she showed up. She got a little busy and I tried getting her attention a few times. Even asked a different waiter if they could track her down or take our next order. When she did finally come back she admitted she forgot to check on us and technically our time was up. But since it was her mistake she gave us an extra 30 mins and took our last orders. I was a little frustrated with this because I didn't feel like I got my moneys worth cause I couldn't order more food cause she forgot about it. Yes the extra 30 min was nice but not enough time to make up for how long she forgot about it. Over all it seemed a little in organized and according to my sushi loving friends, it was mid. If someone else invited me to go I think I would say yes but I'm not making any plans out there just yet.

    Friday afternoon at 4PM there is already a line at the door. The sushi were tasty and we loved the skewers and the appetizers. Cameron was attentive, he provided great service and recommendations. The decor was really adorable and I can see why they are a popular spot. A couple of call outs - the karaage chicken was crispy and tasty but it was cold, Cameron took it back and brought us another serving, still cold. Never had cold karaage chicken at a restaurant before. The sushi rice might have been overdone w the vinegar/sugar mix, the rice was not stuck together but fall apart easy... not quite what I was looking for with a proper nigiri.... The rice to fish ratio was decent though. The avocado roll was creamy and the skewers were the stars of the show. The pork bao bun was yum, definitely ask for cilantro as it's the traditional Taiwanese way of eating a pork bao bun. All in all it's a great spot with amazing service, I can overlook the rice situ and the cold karaage as the other food were tasty and the service was top notch. Get the white fish sashimi appetizer, it's got some crunchy garlic bits that's oh so yummy!

    Finally made it here May 9th for a Mothers Day dinner with my daughter. Joined the waitlist and drove 45 min and was able to get seated at the sushi bar. Service was amazing the atmosphere was great and the music was amazing too!! The food was so good, Fresh. I couldn't stop eating. My daughter loved the hibachi shrimp.

    We played waitlist roulette but ultimately didn't wait long for a table for 4 on a Tuesday evening. The ambiance is super fun, my teen and little kiddo loved it, especially the robot waiter. Our human waiter, Phoenix, was really really good as well! Funny and charming. The drinks (one specialty cocktail and one warm sake) were excellent and the menu had something for everyone! We especially liked the ramen and the nigiri. We had a great time and recommend this for a fun night out!

    Overall, Chubby Fish Sushi was good. The sushi itself was fine but nothing crazy. They do serve All You Can Eat which is nice but I feel that draws in a ton of people which leads to my biggest gripe, the wait. We had to wait three hours to be seated and yes, we were on the online waitlist. It was so long we actually went to another restaurant to get appetizers and drinks until we could get seated here. Then, we had to order the yellowtail sushi three times before they brought it to us (they kept bringing everything we ordered except the yellowtail for some reason). Service was friendly but seemed overwhelmed by the amount of people the were serving. Ambiance was very cool and they had little robot servers that would bring you some of your food. If you don't mind the wait, give this place a shot.

    Maybe my third time coming here, and it's still good when you're craving AYCE. I can't say how it compares to other AYCE sushi in Colorado, but I know that their menu variety is what sets them apart. There is something for everyone, especially if you're coming with people who may not be into raw fish. I especially love their skewers; the seasoning on them is perfection. Sakura roll is my favorite of the specialty rolls. Make sure to check-in online to get on their waitlist before you make the drive over because the wait is usually 1.5 hours on peak days like Friday/Saturday dinner. Pretty big parking lot but you may need to park towards the back since spots fill up in this plaza for some reason. Service is quick and waiters are nice. Highly recommend checking them out when you're in the mood for AYCE.

    I give it a 3 stars overall. Great service and friendly staff. Not sure if it was the owner or not but he was very attentive and made sure my cousin and I ordered the right sake for us. Aside from service, food was okay. They really pack the rice up whether it's a roll or Ngiri. It was also very soggy and it just overpowered all the flavor of the fish. All I taste is sushi rice no matter the roll or Ngiri :/ Seared salmon and seared tuna Ngiri were not what I was expected. It didn't seem seared at all or have that taste...just fried garlic sprinkled on top. I don't recommend it. Salmon Slashimi is good and was probably the best thing on the AYCE. Artisan roll is also a close second. The yellow tail was a nice touch and had good balance...just wish rice wasn't soggy and overpowered everything.

    The kids were hungry and we decided sushi. We have been wanting to try this since they open and finally did. The wait was about 2 1/2 hours. The food was good we didn't have a single bad roll or app. Our second round i did felt like it was too much either eel sauce in the 3 different rolls we got. Our server was nice and it was busy but finally died down our waiter was very attentive made sure our drink we're never empty. I do recommend ordering what you can eat the 1st round. 2nd round if your still hungry might be a bit of a wait They say they will charge $1 for any left over rolls not eaten and can not take home since it is an all you can eat but there is a time limit. Place was definitely loud but it was busy didn't expect it to be silent. We were in one of the booth so it didn't bother us. Very cool anime decor. Little robot helping out the servers. Definitely recommend getting on the wait list asap to avoid ling wait time

    Angry Dragon Roll

    I was really looking forward to their AYCE sushi and bites. I'm not a huge sushi person but they had some rolls that looked good to me, and I was quite ravenous. My adorable server Ryan was friendly and made sure I was taken care of during my stay, his customer service was spot on. The atmosphere was really loud with just chatter from the patrons. If this wasn't AYCE I would've just taken it to go to enjoy the solace of my car or home. All that being said it got such a low rating from the food. The very first roll I tasted, Golden California Roll, was the best. It was sweet, a smidgeon of spice, and crispy and warm from being fried. The Angry Dragon Roll, human, and pork belly skewer did not meet the mark at all. Whether it was texture, too much crab meat (was cheesy tasting too not a fan) or just simply flavor. I had high hopes and if the food would've been better I could've stuffed myself more. However, being that the food wasn't all that good, I found a stopping point. Something about being full and not eating good food doesn't sit right with my stomach.

    Food was delicious and came out surprisingly fast for how busy. Be prepared to wait a long time to get seated though.

    Best AYCE spot in Denver hands down. The quality, selection and the ambiance is amazing and they stay open till 12am which is nice. Service is always on point.

    We have been here twice now. Pretty impressive. Place is always clean, staff is busy but friendly, helpful and prompt. The vibe is fun and they are always busy and often have a waitlist. They open at 4pm, we arrives just after 4pm and the restaurant was full by 4:20pm. Rolls are good and flavorful. We like the yellowtail and tuna nigiri the best. There were a few rolls that weren't our favorite but overall. Everything is delicious. The food comes out pretty quickly and they have a great list of beers and drinks. It's not the best sushi we've ever had but for the price and the great atmosphere, it's amazing! This will be one of our regular spots!

    We came here for the all-you-can-eat sushi. The ambiance is casual and fine for a group dinner. However, the experience was a bit frustrating due to the service speed. The service was slow, so by the time our food arrived for each round, we were less hungry and actually struggled to finish in the end. As for the food itself, the fish did not taste very fresh. There was also too much rice in each bite which makes it hard to get your money's worth. It is an okay option if you are really hungry, but the quality could be better.

    Do they have many gluten free options?

    All sushi rolls have rice which is generally gluten free. The small bites have breading or flour coatings so are not gluten free.

The experience truly begins with the reservation, where you are asked a series of questions from your familiarity with sushi, fish preference, appetite level, and so on. This truly is an in-depth questionnaire so that the chef Yasu could source fish from Nagahama fish market for your meal. It's an incredibly personal, curated meal. On the date of, you are led to a private room in the back, Denchu Den, which is a simple, private sushi bar for up to 4 guests. Then, Chef Yasu comes out for a truly intimate experience, one that is extremely rare to come by, even in Japan. It is truly just your party and the chef as he prepares some truly epic bite. And the menu is not set, it really depends on your personal taste, and the food continues basically until you tap out. As such, there is no set price, though typically we run up about $150-200 a person. It's a 2 hour experience during which you get to experience that Japanese hospitality with chef Yasu. We talked with him about his home, learned about his experience in Denver, and he provided some fun facts about sushi and Japanese in culture in general. I cannot praise this truly unique experience enough, and, in fact, we have been back here every single year. The cherry on top is that as you return, Chef Yasu starts to remember your preference and even past conversation. And it does not end there. Based on our conversation where I discussed my next Japan trip, Chef Yasu even took time to send us an email with his recommendations. The Chef Table at Sushi Den is truly a one of a kind experience here in Denver.

My husband's chair was falling apart and I sat on the booth side and by the end of dinner my back was killing me. I was sunk in a hole so I had to awkwardly sit at the very front edge of the bench seat to be even remotely comfortable. Looking at other chairs around us, they were in no better shape.

    Kimora has the makings of a giant izakaya but somehow sectioned things off to make the back rooms…read morefeel more modern. If that doesn't raise expectations the service is on a whole other level with super knowledgeable staff as if they have been there for a while or even own the places. Its impressive! When you tie service and ambiance that leaves the food. Delicate and flavor forward dishes really play to all levels of the meal. Precisely cut pieces of fish and decorated with spices and sauces for an amazing meal! Highly recommended and an easy decision to return. Make your reservation and get that sushi in your belly!

    I've been to Kumoya twice now, once in 2023 and again recently, and I really wanted to love it. The…read morefood is good, the ambiance is great, and the staff is kind when you interact with them. Unfortunately, both visits had the same issue: very long gaps between dishes. On my most recent visit, we waited nearly 50 minutes between courses and never received the remaining three dishes. We ended up asking for the check instead. What made it more frustrating was the lack of service. No one checked on us, and we had to flag down another staff member just to get the check. Our server never came by. It was also surprising because the restaurant wasn't busy. There were open bar seats and plenty of open tables, so I'd be nervous to see what the experience is like on a busy night. It's disappointing because the food is solid, but the pacing and service make it hard to come back.

    5 star food and service at Mizu Izakaya! Our experience made for a perfect, fun Friday Date night…read more I came for the crispy spicy tuna and it was easily the best I've had. We also really enjoyed the chili wontons, pork belly skewers, and Kobe beef buns - all were super high quality and packed with flavor. We didn't care for the cucumber salad - the large chunks just didn't take on any flavor and felt like eating plain cucumber. The ambiance is very high energy and can be loud (there's a live DJ), but we had a wonderful experience on the patio.

    I stopped by this spot after catching a candlelight orchestra performance nearby and was craving…read moresome sushi--and this place definitely delivered, just not in the way I expected. When I walked in, it felt more like a club than a traditional restaurant. The music was loud, the energy was high, and the crowd was definitely on the younger side. Honestly, I've never really experienced anything quite like it--part restaurant, part nightlife vibe--but it was kind of cool in its own way. I grabbed a seat at the bar and ordered sushi along with a seaweed salad and an Old Fashioned. The food was actually really good--fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot after the show. That said, if you're looking for a quiet, relaxing dinner, this probably isn't your place. But if you're open to a lively atmosphere and something a little different, it's a fun experience. I enjoyed my food, soaked in the vibe, and left glad I gave it a try.
