    Fried Calamari
    Rebecca M.

    Izumi Sushi is a beautiful restaurant with a modern but almost clinical feel. The dishes were presented absolutely beautifully, and the prices seemed fair for what they were. We started with the calamari and it was good but nothing memorable. Some of the sushi rolls were on the smaller side. One roll contained crab that seemed almost puréed, giving it a mushy unappetizing texture. The second roll (their namesake the Izumi Roll) had tempura shrimp, which had not been deveined, which is completely unacceptable at any restaurant, but especially at a sushi restaurant. The moment I noticed it (mid bite) I was done eating. Nobody wants to find shrimp poo track in their food. (See photo) With the poor texture of one roll to the complete lack of basic preparation of the other, I can't recommend this restaurant. We will unfortunately, not be returning.

    Really decent sushi in castle rock! Not many places like this south metro - which makes it stand out. Really fun and upscale atmosphere, and wait staff were all really nice. However they are unorganized and screwed up my reservation (I had booked omakase for $150 pp -months in advance -but when I showed up the reservation was nowhere to be found on their system) - which was disappointing since it was our anniversary dinner. Because of this, they weren't ready for us and it took a really, really long time to get our first course (out of 18). Other than this mishap - we had fun and enjoyed the food

    Super great sushi place in Denver Metro. Really high quality. The nigiri, the sashimi, the service, the ambiance. Highly recommend!!

    The recently opened Izumi in Castle Rock was packed with patrons on Friday evening. Heard many good words about this place, so have to tried it out. They require 3 days advance reservation for omasake greater than $100 and a week advance reservation for omakase greater than $200 to make sure the sushi chefs have enough time to order the right fishes. Heard they ordered their fishes 3 times per week to make sure having the freshest catch. The texture and taste of the sushi here reminded me of the ones at the more traditional sushi shops in Japan, not overly saucy, but good balance of buttery, savory, and clean ocean flavors. Also the ambience was welcoming and service was attentive. Certainly a new spot worth recommending.

    Izumi Roll, Double Tuna Roll, New Style Yellowtail Roll

    We were greeted with smiles and the traditional irasshaimase when we entered the brightly lit restaurant. When I ordered, I ordered a large Sapporo and Ryker did look at me a bit odd, making me wonder if I had been ordering wrong these past thirty years. But it was brought to me in a mug, so I guess Sapporo seems to be on tap only, which is perfectly fine. We ordered Shishito Peppers and Miso Soup as an appetizer. Unagi, Tako, and Hamachi nigiri. We decided on the New Style Yellowtail Roll, Double Tuna Roll, and their Izumi Roll. The nigiri was brought out before the appetizers - new restaurant I guess, trying to get their timing right? Their Izumi Roll was spot on - the right mix of ingredients and warm tempura shrimp. The Double Tuna Roll was just that - tuna two ways with avocado and rice (I think it could have used maybe some shiso to blend with the tuna.) I was very interested in the New Style Yellowtail Roll, instead of jalapeños, they used Serrano peppers. Unfortunately, the peppers were very few but blended well with the yellowtail, maybe better than the jalapeño. The fried scallions though were a great addition. Service was great. Ryker checked on us occasionally, but did not hover like some, allowing us to enjoy our lunch.

    Take, yellow tail and unagi nigiri.  Fresh and excellent.

    Tried this new place for lunch today. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and our server Ryker was excellent. From the Shishito peppers to the miso soup, the nigiri and the specialty rolls the food was amazing. The restaurant is fresh, clean, and new and a nice quiet escape for lunch today.

    Stopped in to check out this new sushi spot in downtown Castle Rock, and we really enjoyed it! The sushi was fresh and tasted great, and the restaurant has a cute atmosphere that's perfect for a casual date night. Nothing over the top or flashy, just solid sushi, friendly service, and a nice place to grab dinner. We'll definitely be back!

    Double tuna roll
    Anika D.

    I was really impressed with the quality of the sushi here. The rolls were super fresh, well-made, and delicious. Their specialty rolls were so unique, I absolutely loved the micro cilantro in the new style yellowtail roll and the seared tuna on top of the double tuna roll. I think their Philadelphia roll was maybe the best I've had. We also got the seaweed salad, which I loved (I only wish there was a bit more of it!) It had a really nice citrusy dressing that was different than other seaweed salads I've had. The place seemed very clean and the service was fantastic. The owner or manager came by to check on us towards the end of our meal as well.

    Food was great! Still getting all the kinks out I'm assuming, so no draft list and no cocktail menu, but beer was ice cold! Honestly the best sushi we've had in Colorado, and all their crab dishes use real snow crab. No imitation crab meat here and you can tell the difference. AC must've been working overtime in there which was refreshing from the heat, but bring a jacket if you get cold easily. Service could use some more attentiveness, but overall we will definitely go back. Vibes were upscale and perfect for a date night.

As for the food it was not great at all and the portion sizes were average. The rice became overcooked as the chef left the grill to get 3 blow up items for a person in our party who had a birthday. Also the fried rice did not have enough eggs. Next, which was confusing was the chef split my portion size an adult streak entree with a 1 kids meal evenly btw 3 people! The chefs did not serve me the same amount of vegetables as everyone else and when I let him know he cook a different set of vegetables that was mainly onions and veggies were so cut up I could not dip in the sauce. Lastly, as the chef was pouring the sauces for the veggies in the dishes it was a mess as he was doing it consistently across to each dish so there was sauce on the sides. Also another guest of my party wanted double yum yum sauce and he handed him the bottle to pour the second serving to himself. I will not return as this was not a good habachi experience.

It's either you go a little north to get to Lone Tree or a little south to get to Castle Rock to find something truly good or even decent. But the past Saturday I got lucky in the very city with something I truly love: Japanese food. After finishing up a job assignment in the very shopping center, if I was going to get food then it had to be something close by preferably a place that was walkable. I then found this place in my quick search. What a simple name! I wasted no time to go and check it out. Inside is clean and simple. Nothing fancy or special about the interior snd yet it's got some Asian touches throughout. My visit to it was met with an amazing service by a young man upfront who was friendly, professional and personable. Didn't get his name but hopefully the accolades I am showering him with by writing this review get noticed by the manager or the owner and that they will go to him personally. After browsing the menu for a good few minutes I set my eyes on the tempura tofu and the seaweed salad. Once my order was placed with him he said it would be 10-15 minutes. The time of arrival was 15 minutes before 6pm. There was only a few tables occupied by diners. The restaurant didn't appear to be busy with online or call-in orders. As such, my food (as he promised) was ready in a timely fashion. I definitely needed to eat my food in the car; I was super famished. And here is my honest and frank assessment for the two items: -Tempura tofu: great portion size for the price of $17 as of this writing in late July of 2026. The tempura tofu pieces were huge. The heat from the oil cooking was still felt as i bit into the tofu. This is a three-layered dish with tempura tofu on top, stir fried vegetables in the second layer and white rice at the bottom. The denseness of the dish is simply thick. -Seasoned salad: this was also a good portion size. The seaweed was placed on top of the greens that were fresh. This can easily be split between two people. After everything I had experienced with this business, I can comfortably say that I could see myself using this restaurant again whenever I see fit although it's, at the same time, not a place where I would drive 20+ minutes just to eat here unless I have other reason to be in the neighborhood.

However, within a few minutes of placing the order I received a call, wanting to confirm which location I had wanted to place the order through. I had accidentally chosen the wrong location so they canceled my order and had me place it again online. They called the other individual I was with who also placed an order. This must happen pretty often if they're calling every single person that places an online order and I will say that I did not notice that I picked the wrong location when I placed the order. So I was grateful that they called to confirm. The order was ready when we arrive to the location and everything was accurate. I started with edamame. And I will say it is pretty standard edamame. I also wanted to try a California roll. It was really fresh and I would definitely order one again. My favorite of the appetizers was that Gyoza. Those were so good. I always order them with Ramen in Kansas City but these knocked any of those out of the park. For Ramen, I went with a classic tonkatsu. The menu description said that it came with corn and bok choy, but I was missing both of those items. The Ramen itself was really good. The broth was super rich and they gave you a lot. There were also a lot of Ramen noodles. And I did like the addition of the bamboo shoots. The marinated egg was fantastic. This classic was so tasty. If I lived in the area, I would definitely visit pretty often. There's so many different menu items that looked so good and I'm sure the other Ramen varieties are fantastic as well.
