Defiantly a fan of Sushi Bay. Conveniently located on Tennyson Street with all of its local charm. I have been for lunch and dinner and on both occasions I was not disappointed. I would like to go on Sunday for the all you can eat and see how that is. Atmosphere is fun with decorative lighting and neat sushi bar. Fish was fresh and flavorful.... BIG fan of the Kobe beef roll. Wait staff was helpful by making suggestions and funny when I asked for a fork instead of chopsticks! This is my first pick over Sushi Hai or Shiso sushi. read more

We just had take-out from here for the first time. Overall the rolls tasted good so that's the most important thing. However, I was stunned at the small size of the special, aka pricier, rolls! When you spend $10-$15 each on a special roll you expect it to be a certain size. Ours were as small as the basic rolls. Just surprising and we were left a little hungry and felt somewhat ripped off. read more

Being a sushi lover who lives close by, I had really high hopes for Sushi Bay. My wife and I were extremely excited to try it out and went on a Friday night, during their first week. Unfortunately, they fell short of our hopes. We were trying hard to love it, but as the meal went on it became clear that this wasn't going to be a new neighborhood spot for us. We started with the Spicy Crispy Tuna appetizer...it was pretty good, but difficult to eat with chop sticks. I then had miso soup, which was actually amazing, and my wife had a cucumber salad that was very good as well. That being said, its miso soup and cucumber salad...they are hard to mess up. We ordered a bunch of different rolls and nigiri, but none of it was anything special. The only roll I really remember was the kobe beef roll and it was pretty bad. The fish seemed somewhat fresh, but just didn't seem to be that high quality. Overall, this place was 100% "meh" for me. It was by no means terrible, but it certainly wasn't great. Everything about it, the food, the decor, the service, was middle of the road. We'll probably give it another chance, for Happy Hour maybe, but I certainly won't go in with high hopes. read more

I ordered their sushi off grubhub. When I said nothing raw, they called me and confirmed. We ended up getting 4 California Rolls for the same price of the Sushi Dinner. I have seen better but it was ok as where I used to order changed their delivery minimum. I'll like to say that the delivery process could be a bit smoother. But at the end of the day, it arrived early, and a hungry person likes that. read more

Great little place in a vibrant area. Sushi and service are amazing--the Green Roll is my favorite. Hubby loves the tuna tacos. Have dined during regular hours, happy hour, and all you can eat Sunday. Have never been disappointed. read more

Was in the neighborhood and somewhat hungry so I popped in to give Sushi Bay a try. I sat at the bar and ordered the crazy tuna roll and some hot tea since it was a cold night. The green tea was perfectly hot and it was just a few minutes before the sushi roll came out. I enjoyed the crunch and flavor of the roll and it was a good portion for my level of hunger at the time. Service was efficient and friendly and everyone around me seemed to be repeat customers. I look forward to dining at Sushi Bay again. I'll make sure to have more appetite the next time I do! read more

Any perfectly respectable East Coaster knows better than to eat sushi in a land-locked state and certainly not in Denver right? Well, some times you just gotta live! And they put it on dry ice right? Sushi Bay did not let me down. The sushi was fresh, reasonably priced and great portions for their lunch service. I ordered the sushi sampler with california roll, soup and salad. It was way more food than I could eat and had to take the cali roll home with me (also yummy the next day). ;) The restaurant is simple, clean and cute. Service right on point. I'd definitely go back! read more

I would give this place a 0 star review if possible. Charge 34.95 for all you can eat and fail at simple tasks. Literally can not accommodate a simple allergy. Claims they will charge for anything taken off. Then all together refuses service because cooks are "too nervous" to make anything. Are they not trained in Serve Safe standards or general accommodation? No manager on site Total waste of time... read more

I really like the location, decor, and food here. The service was fantastic and the prices were not terrible for a sushi restaurant. Look forward to going back and trying new things! read more

Went to Sushi Bay during happy hour. It wasn't too busy and we were very well attended by the staff. We ordered hot sake, which was good- seemed pretty standard. Then started with the calamari, which tasted very fresh and wasn't overly battered. I hate when calamari is rubbery in texture and this was not at all, so I did not hold back. We moved on to our sushi course and it did not disappoint. It was fresh, big portion size of the nigiri (we had salmon and tuna), and the rolls had good flavor. The spicy crunch tuna roll was yummy and I liked the crunch factor. In my opinion, Sushi Bay stands above Sushi Hai with regard to price, service, and sushi flavor/freshness...and all without the pretension. Welcome to the neighborhood Sushi Bay! read more

Super clean restaurant and very fresh ingredients! Started with a nice seaweed salad and then demolished two specialty rolls! Service was prompt and attentive. read more

This was excellent sushi! Service was great, and we truly enjoyed it. They have a seared Kobe beef with asparagus roll, never seen anything like it before, and it was amazing. They have traditional rolls but also many specialty rolls. I highly recommend! read more

Sushi Bay will nickel and dime you on substitutions (e.g., up charging $2 to substitute even when the new item is less expensive than the original), and they often overlook special instructions. The food itself is mediocre, and their only redeeming quality is their excellent garlic sauce. read more

Love the all day Happy Hour on Sunday! $11 pitchers of Great Divide are nothing to sniff at. Tried the veggie gyoza and spicy crunchy blue crab roll. Both were a cut above some other similarly priced neighborhood sushi joints. Really unique take on veggie gyoza that I thoroughly enjoyed! read more

This place is great, very relaxed and not the typical Denver trendy. The happy hour is great, with good deals on sashimi and rolls, the saki selection is limited but offers some good basic choices including a decent house cold. Order the spicy tuna, not "crunch" for some really great basic sushi. I love it! My rating is for the decent food and great ambiance, a nice change from the more "trendy" yet still average options. read more

This is the go-to sushi spot for me and my boyfriend. We love trying all the new rolls and would highly recommend the bronco roll, Las Vegas roll, and ocean garden roll. The sake is also delectable. They round out their fantastic menu with welcoming, polite staff & service and very reasonable prices. Can't wait to go back. read more

Food is great but we just have to stop ordering from here because they are the absolute worst at take out and delivery. Often takes over two hours to have food delivered 30 minutes over on a 20 minute wait time for pick up- So frustrating. read more

This place is AMAZING!! I've been eating here since before the pandemic started and it's been my favorite restaurant for 3 years now! HIGHLY recommend this place for sure!! Great packaging on deliveries and food arrived hot and ready every time! The staff is amazing and the lady who is the hostess/server is so nice and very welcoming! Do your self a favor and eat here!! read more

I'm a little spoiled when it comes to sushi ... but I was 'wowed' my first time in with the Chirashi for $18. Nice variety and all very delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. They do a standard happy hour and late night also - beers, $5 wine and $1-3 pieces. There are discounted rolls and apps too. They're also in on the AYCE sushi trend going around. $26 on Sundays. The AYCE menu selection is surprisingly broad - as another reviewer recommended bring a few people so you can try different rolls. You have to eat what you order! I was a little disappointed that AYCE is nigiri only (no sashimi) but I understand given the cost associated with folks coming in and doing all sashimi. Overall great little spot with good service and an unpretentious environment!! read more

This sushi place is very close to me and looks like nothing special from the inside, but once you walk in you will change your mind. The interior is very nicely decorated with nice light features and art work. However, the tables are super close together! I'm pretty crazy about that only because I like to hear my own conversations. The service was excellent throughout the entire night and our waitress asked multiple times if we were enjoying the food...that's a plus!Before entrees, my guests and I started with the chicken dumplings- they were average. For dinner, we decided to share a plate of the California rolls, the Las Vegas rolls, and the Philadelphia. Everything was pretty good!- would I say it was the best sushi I ever had?- no, but it was still fairly good! At the end of the night, we were satisfied! I probably will return in the future! read more

I have to go back here during happy hour. Or maybe just go back in general, perhaps it was a bad night for fish (Tuesday a bad day for sushi perhaps?). But it wasn't very good. The wife and I had been delaying trying this place out because I'm cautious about sushi. Not about the raw fish aspect of it, but about the fact that this is no real sliding value scale when it comes to sushi restaurants. If you get a specialty roll, it is going to cost between $11 and $15 no matter how good the sushi is. It's just a given. We tried 4 rolls, and 3 of them were flavorless to just ok. The red dragon roll was the lone exception, and it was delicious. The belly roll, the spicy girl roll, and the naruto roll were rather bland. The naruto roll was wrapped in cucumber, and the cucumber was far too thick and overpowered any flavor of the fish. But even in the other rolls the flavor of the fish was lacking. We also tried the seaweed salad, which I thought was unimpressive and also lacking in flavor. The night culminated in me being very upset that I spent over $60 (tax and tip included) for a very unsatisfying meal. That's way too much to spend on a so-so dinner for two. A sushi restaurant is only as good as the flavor of the fish it serves, and the fish here on Tuesday, October 23, 2012 was not very good at all. I'll try again during happy hour on a rush night. Maybe it will be better. read more

The best thing on the menu is the stuffed jalapeno. It's a fried jalapeno, stuffed with spicy tuna and cream cheese and drizzled with special sauce. It's amazing. Make sure to get that. The crispy spicy tuna is also good. I also love the roll that has the peppered tuna on top and the spicy girl roll. They also have some good rolls that are "low carb" wrapped in soy paper and cucumber and those are also really good. The staff is always super friendly and they get your order and meal quick. Although I've never been, I heard the all you can eat sushi on Sunday's is good. Happy hour prices are really good too. read more

We ordered online for delivery to our hotel and our food came fresh and what should of been cold was cold and what should of been hot was hot. With carryout or delivery sushi, sometimes the chefs don't pack it very well and the sushi falls apart. Not here! It was all tightly packed and the rolls were so good. Wish they were in Kansas City. We will have again when we return back to the area! read more

Nice place, comfortable booths. Ordered the Dynamite appetizer - lacked twang and spice that the description promised and that is typical of this dish. House cold, filtered sake was solid and an admirable option. You may also order unfiltered and warm house varieties. Of course - as always - I ordered the Chirashi. The quality of the fish was ok. Some pieces fresher, more flavorful than others. The traditional dish was served in a more modern fashion, laid over a scoop of rice w/ a giant leaf (banana?) garnish. Order of Tamago was interesting - no "carmelized" veins in it - just yellow, creamy and custard-like. Waitress picked apart my remaining, uneaten Chirashi rice, with forensic acumen and commented that if I wanted more fish, I could order Sashimi... yes...and the sky is blue. Overall the staff was pleasant and service was fast. I did not partake in HH - perhaps that is the key by the looks of previous reviews. Maybe I'll give that a try if I go again some time. read more

You have to try the "banana roll"!! Sooo good. Great happy hour! Every roll we had was so delicious! We came here at 5pm. Great "mango mojito"!! read more

My husband doesn't like sushi, so I yelped some local sushi spots that had "non-sushi" choices, and sushi bay came up with a lot of great reviews. I am so happy we tried it. The service is prompt and nice. The food was excellent. The dragon roll rocked my world. They also have yummy mochi. My husband liked his chicken teriyaki, so everyone was happy. Great place! :) read more

Sushi Bay - Dragon roll from heaven!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This is my absolute favorite sushi joint in my neck of the woods (and one of my favorites in this landlocked state - I am a California transplant). The fish is always fresh, the service is reliable and the diversity of the menu allows me to drag my non-sushi loving boyfriend (the horror, I know) here without issue. As a testimony to the non-fish items, both my 35 year old boyfriend and 2 year old nephew are enthusiastic fans of their chicken gyoza. Said 2 year old nephew has a record of 8 gyoza in one sitting. He likey! In addition to the solid, consistent food, they are super accommodating about special orders (subbed raw items for cooked when my sister-in-law was pregnant) and they now offer delivery. Yay!! My only complaint is that they don't have a loyalty rewards program for people like myself who frequent the establishment on a regular basis. If they did, my visit frequency might increase from once or twice a week, to twice a week or more. Listen up, Sushi Bay Management!! read more

FAR superior to sushi place down street (Okinawa). Kind staff, no pretentious vibes, no slow service, hard workers, affordable. They wrap their sushi tight enough so it doesn't fall apart when you pick it up with chopsticks. Good sake that is affordable as well. Plus, Sushi Bay is locally owned and Okinawa has several locations. If you're choosing between the two sushi places in Berkeley area, I love this spot way more. read more

Awesome sushi. Awesome lunch specials! Their miso soup is so spot on! Very friendly staff and very authentic. These guys not only know how to properly cook sushi rice but they get the proportions right as well! Hamachi Kama appetizer is so delicious! We usually go for lunch and get the specials that come with 2 or 3 rolls, soup and salad. Never disappointed. Really wonderful tea as well! We have only been for dinner once, but found it just as impressive! Really love the food here. Perhaps our only complaint would be the music at times. Would prefer traditional japanese music or classical etc over pop music. haha. But seriously, we love the food here and that is what keeps us coming back. read more

I can't express how much I love the happy hour here. Everyday from 3-6, great menu, excellent presentation, delicious and fresh. I go out of my way to eat here and this is the only place I've ever sat down to eat by myself. I look forward to it and I hope this place is around for a long time! Spicy tuna crunch and unagi sashimi are my favs. read more

After trying out several different spots, we've decided to call this one our go-to sushi restaurant. One thing I usually look for as a personal preference is their Sashimi offering and Sushi Bay does not disappoint. Healthy cuts of fish and good variety. Presentation is about on par with what you would expect. Wide variety of rolls available, but we didn't see any specials. Would be nice to see a 1 or 2 that are changing. We also love the Age Tofu and Seaweed salad. Pretty typical appetizers at any sushi restaurant but we like it best here. read more

Attended their late night happy hour (Friday & Saturday night from 9-10), and had a wonderful experience. Spent $50 for two, including drinks. This is the fastest I have ever gotten my order at a sushi place. Well rolled, good value, super fast, great service. Highly recommend read more

I ordered takeout and it was very good. The sushi was clean and fresh. The order said it would take 55-60 minutes and I called them and they said it would be ready in 20 minutes. Overall good sushi experience. Reasonably priced. read more

Colorado has no good AYCE sushi. AT ALL. After living in the NJ/NYC area, I'm accustomed to decent AYCE sushi. This is one of the worst by far. The AYCE sushi places I've tried are sushi ring, sushi bay, osaka sushi, and sushi katsu. If all I wanted was cheap sushi rice for a meal, anyone can make that by googling a recipe and making it yourself. I have to say their chefs are quite skilled though. I've never been to a place in all the sushi places I've been in Japan, New York City, or San Francisco where they routinely hand cut fish to such exact, precise, paper-thin pieces. I saw them do it, no machine involved. I've looked over at other people's tables. Regular menu items seem decent. They honestly shouldn't even offer AYCE if they're going to charge so much for serving only sushi rice. But since they do, I get to slap them with a well-deserved 1/5 star rating. read more

This is one of our favorite sushi places. Good, fresh sushi and great service. Our favorite rolls are the Snow Mountain, Bronco, and Godzilla. They also have a good happy hour with discounts on beer and rolls. read more

Always been one of my favorite sushi places reasonable prices and a very fresh taste..see you next time and Happy holidays..

We did the delivery service through yelp. The food arrived 30 minutes early!!! The food was as good as the delivery service.

Ordered 90 dollars worth of sushi, and I didn't eat two of the rice beds the tuna came on. They then had the audacity to actually charge me 2 extra dollars for each rice bed I did not eat! They actually charged me twice for two pieces of sushi. Then said that's the way they do it because if people don't eat the rice they won't get full and will eat all the fish.... but isn't that a good thing? The more you order the more business they get...???.. never again will I give my business to these swindlers. Go to sushi hai better sushi, service, and cheaper. read more
