I grew up in Japan and went & ate over thousands of Sushi and Japanese food, so I know what I am talking about. In Japan some of good sushi restaurants have Sushi chefs proudly tell customers what special kinds of fish are available on the day and serve them if customers want to try. This place was superb 10 years ago - American Sushi Chefs behind the counter were trained in Japan, they even understood all orders I made in Japanese. At a good sushi restaurant, I just ask for chef's recommendations instead of looking at Sushi menu. 10 years ago they served several fish which were not on the sushi list. I never forget they even served Nigiri with Sayori which I never tasted even in Japan. Ever since, I had thought this was one and only real Sushi restaurant in Colorado. Not anymore. We drove 55 miles to go back to this place in December, and the wait was 45 minutes. While we were standing at the door, we watched Sushi Chefs (most were Japanese this time) poured sauces (mayo, chili sauce, etc. etc.) plate after plate from ketchup-bottle shaped plastic containers on top of maki, nigiri, etc. in horror. (as you can see some photos posted in this site, lots of sauce and non-fish ingredients accompanying in a place). Why horror? Fresh fish has a distinctive taste and it is a real delicacy. Pouring sauce on top of fish just ruins all goodness of fish. You use sauce to disguise it when fish is not that fresh and not that tasty anymore, but when it is fresh, it's a deal breaker. (only the exception I compromise is for eel and anago.) In my opinion, a real good sushi should be made of simple ingredients of rice, fish, and nori if rolls. Most of Sushi they serve were Fusion Sushi in a good word, messed-up, confused Sushi in bad terms, meaning they are not authentic. For people who do not know Sushi well, party style Sushi may be o.k. and still look great, but for those who know authentic Sushi, many they serve are Americanized and frankly a disappointment. Their Sushi so much focuses on pleasing & entertaining customers and it lacks its soul. We sat at a table and waited for another 20 minutes to have our server come over to take drink orders. We ordered some kitchen foods as well as some Sushi. I was excited to ask our waiter if they had a special Sushi of the day which was not on the menu. Waiter flat out said no. He didn't even ask Chefs who were standing over the counter only 8 feet away. He had this, "I have a say what we serve here and it's only what are on the menu." attitude. I politely asked if he could ask Sushi Chef if they had something special, which he declined. I asked if they had Shako, to which he said, "what is Shako?" - if you're a server at a good Sushi restaurant, it doesn't matter if you are a Sushi Chef or not, you should be knowledgeable about fish. I asked difference of 10 Maguroes which were on the list, and his best explanation was, "it tastes sweetest from the top on the list." -not much convincing for the 2 pieces/$10-$16 investment! I ordered Yellow Tail and they served Shime-Saba instead. don't know why. Sour "yellow tail"? I don't think so..! Tuna Roll was o.k., just mediocre. All Nigiri had fish which looked "tired", and they looked as if they just came out of a refrigerator. (maybe it came in on the previous day? Remember, fresh fish and 2nd day fish taste very different! ). This time their Sushi didn't impress me at all. Kitchen food was likewise. First off, their dinner menu didn't offer broad selection. My partner wanted to order Hallibut but it was sold out at 7:00 pm on weekday. Most other food had sauces, which he didn't care for, so it was difficult for him to order something. He settled for Assorted Tempra, which turned out to be a joke. Obviously kitchen chef didn't know the real Tempra. In Japan, nobody serves Chicken, broccoli or Green Pepper Tempras. (please..green peppers are not Shishi-toh, a little Japanese spicy pepper!) Ika and Chicken were cut into 1x1x4 square bars to my surprise! There is a well-known standard of how to cut Ika for Tempra, but this Kitchen chef obviously didn't know about it, which I have to say a bit embarrassing for a well-known place. I don't care if management is Japanese or not, but it didn't look authentic. Koromo(coating) was too thick and not crispy, and Tare sauce needed more Dashi fish broth and a little more Mirin sweetness. Only thing I appreciated was Tempra was served on Tempra paper. I ordered Ramen and the soup was too salty. I asked our server a cup of hot water to dilute it, which came after he serving and taking orders at another tables for 15 minutes. By the time noodle was cold and absorbed salty soup. The place was loud & crowded like zoo, and it is not cheap. If pricey, we deserve to ask for and get good foods. Or we are not worthy of chef's special attention unless we pay over $120 omakase menu? I don't think I can recommend this restaurant anymore. Overrated. read more

Truly amazing experience from start to finish. If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, look no further than Sushi Den! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a warm atmosphere and an incredibly friendly staff that makes you feel right at home. Their knowledge of the menu is impressive, and they're more than happy to guide you through their exquisite offerings. Let's dive into the food, which is nothing short of spectacular. The **jalapeño hamachi sashimi** is a true standout--perfectly fresh with a delightful kick from the jalapeño that elevates the dish to new heights. It's a must-try for any sashimi lover! Next up is the **miso black cod**, which is simply divine. The fish is cooked to perfection, its rich flavors enhanced by the miso glaze that caramelizes beautifully. Each bite melts in your mouth, leaving you craving more. The **short ribs** are another highlight. Tender and juicy, they are expertly seasoned and packed with flavor, making them a comforting yet sophisticated choice that pairs wonderfully with the rest of the meal. For sushi lovers, the **tuna firecracker roll** is a firework of flavors! With its spicy tuna and crispy elements, it delivers the perfect balance of heat and crunch. And if you're in the mood for something classic, the **California roll** here is impeccably made, showcasing the quality of the ingredients that Sushi Den is known for.

Sushi Den consistently delivers, and our go to sushi restaurant, for the classic high quality sushi experience! Every dish we tried was a testament to their commitment to incredibly fresh ingredients (they have a whole menu dedicated to fresh catch - which is where we order the most). We started with the Hamachi Jalapeño Sashimi, which was perfectly spicy and fresh, a fantastic kick-off to the meal. The Hon Wasabi Sashimi followed, offering just the right amount of spice to awaken the palate without overpowering the delicate fish. The Osaka Style Aburi Sockeye Salmon was so outstanding, we ordered seconds - a true highlight with its perfectly seared richness. And the Aburi Toro? That's always our go-to for a reason; it simply melts in your mouth every time. The Crispy Spicy Tuna brought a delightful textural contrast with its loveable crunch and tartare combination, making it utterly addictive. For rolls, the Firecracker Roll was a thrilling combination of flavors, though fair warning for cilantro-averse diners, it definitely has that fresh herb kick! The Negihama Roll was the perfect counterbalance - simple, fresh, and served as an excellent palate cleanser between the more intense flavors. Beyond the sushi, the Miso Eggplant was an absolute revelation; seriously, we could not put it down! Its rich, savory sweetness was completely captivating. To wash it all down, the Lychee Cocktail was wonderfully balanced - not overly sweet, leaving a beautiful, floral aftertaste. Our waitress was phenomenal and waited on our table of 8 with no issues, with awesome recommendations and ensuring we got all of our dishes. Sushi Den continues to be a top-tier dining destination. If you're looking for an exceptional sushi experience in Denver with innovative dishes and unparalleled freshness, this is the place! read more

It really couldn't get better for me at the Sushi Den, from the time we were greeted by the hostess to the moment we handed our keys to the valet...the experience was one that any individual would appreciate and hope for when dining out. When we arrived we were welcomed warmly by both hostesses. They lead us to the "cocktail bar", where we imbibed on a couple of delicious drinks while waiting for our seats to be ready. We sat at the sushi bar after about a 30 minute wait, which is typical (and probably even a little quick) for 7:30 at this restaurant. We were told right away by the patron sitting next to us that we were in great hands because the owner was taking care of us. Well, he was right. The owner, Yasu, was a warm gentleman, eager to serve us sushi that was flown in that morning from Japan. It was obvious within the first moments of contact how much pride he took in his restaurant. He was instantly curious of what we liked to eat and said that if we were up to it he would make us a "special" roll. After we received our perfectly baked mussels, delicious hamachi (it really couldn't have tasted more fresh), salmon and scallops sushi, and a yummy shrimp tempura roll, we were eager for more. Although we were almost stuffed to capacity, we wanted to try Yasu's special roll. The roll was a delightful blend of flavors: scallops on the inside and salmon sashimi and shitake mushroom on the outside. Half of them received a garnish of micro arugula that came straight from their 6.5 acre farm. The other half were garnished with finely dried beets. It was a flavor explosion that I could never recreate. I am eager to explore more of Sushi Den's menu, and I doubt I'll go anywhere else when craving sushi. read more

My wife, daughter, and I visited Sushi Den to celebrate my wife and I's 15th wedding anniversary, and we left with mixed feelings. While the food was amazing, the service was disappointingly terrible. We had saved up for this special occasion and made a reservation a month in advance, eagerly anticipating our meal. We even dressed smart casual and made a 40-minute trek to the restaurant. The evening started off well with the hostess wishing us a happy anniversary and seating us at a beautiful table with a nice view outside. However, the experience quickly went downhill once our server arrived. She handed us the menus and gave a very brief overview. When I asked her to review the special fresh-caught fish, she overwhelmed us by listing nearly every item on the menu without considering our preferences. Although she reviewed the order in which the food would be delivered, it didn't matter as our dishes arrived sporadically over the next hour. There were long gaps of about ten minutes with no food, followed by a random plate. Our server seemed clueless about our table, asking twice if we had received certain dishes. My water was never refilled during the meal, showing a lack of care in the service. It was especially frustrating seeing other tables receive great service while we were neglected. To top it off, we received a dirty bowl with a piece of rice stuck in it. I was still hungry and would have ordered more food, but we were so disappointed by the experience that we decided to go home instead. Now, we're $215 poorer and frustrated after what was meant to be a special occasion for my family. The amazing food couldn't make up for the poor service, making this a rather regrettable anniversary dinner. read more

A couple of years ago, we used to go there every Friday. But Sushi Den is the kind of place you need to go to either at 5 or at 10 pm. If you want to get in at regular times, like 7 or 8, you will have to wait hours as a lot of reviews say, their reservation system is a joke. So we got tired and stopped going there. We went there again on July 9th just because my sister's flight got into town really late and they were the only sushi place to be open till 11:30 pm, which is a good thing. I won't go over what everybody already said about the decor, the hype, the sports cars and reservation issues, etc but I'd like to share some details from that night. The server was extremely attentive and we were very pleased with the service. First of all, their miso soup is the best ever: their miso is high quality white miso, not the salty, strong cheap red miso that some restaurants use. They also always use interesting mushrooms and wakame on it, which makes a very delicate and correct soup. I believe you can judge a Japanese restaurant by their miso soup and Sushi Den has the best in town. I usually order nigiri sushi a la carte but that day I decided for a chirashi. As usual, their fish was excellent, I don't think any sushi place has fish as fresh and delicious as Sushi Den. They usually have the most perfect sushi rice ever, but on that day, the rice was bad, and that kills the whole dish. Because of it, I am not giving this review 5 stars, but only 4. The rest of the party thought that everything else was very good. In short, one of the best sushi in town but get there at either 5 pm or 10 pm if your main interest is food. read more

Sushi Den in Denver is a premier destination for sushi lovers, offering a top-tier omakase experience with both raw and cooked dishes. Known for sourcing its fish directly from Japan, the restaurant delivers freshness and craftsmanship in every bite. The omakase dinner is a luxurious journey through expertly prepared sushi and thoughtfully crafted cooked dishes. The raw selections featured an impressive variety, including buttery toro bites, rich wagyu beef, delicate mackerel, and fresh yellowtail, each expertly prepared to highlight its unique flavor profile. Among the cooked offerings, the seafood stew stood out with its deep, satisfying flavors, while the Japanese miso eggplant was a perfect balance of umami and sweetness. The broiled miso cod was particularly memorable, offering a silky, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Beyond the savory courses, the green tea dessert was a revelation. Its texture was silky and refined, while the deep, rich green tea flavor lingered beautifully, making for a perfect ending to the meal. Service was attentive and seamless, with prompt plate changes and thoughtful touches like pouring tea or wine at just the right moments. Valet parking is available, making arrival and departure hassle-free. The ambiance is lively and upscale, ideal for special occasions or an indulgent night out. While the restaurant can get busy, the polished service and meticulous presentation make the experience well worth it. With its commitment to quality and innovation, Sushi Den continues to set the standard for sushi in Denver, offering an omakase that is both refined and memorable. read more

I have been dining at Sushi Den since they were a tiny spot 2 doors up the street in the mid-80's. I am blown away that every time I go it keeps getting better. How do they DO that??? Last night was my birthday, and as a last minute solo treat to myself, I decided to have my birthday dinner there. Wow! The place was really hopping as I went at prime time on a Friday night, and it helped me feel like everybody was there to celebrate along with me! After a short, 10 minute wait at the bar, I was shown my seat - and the timing was perfect, because the next people seated next to me were two sisters who had moved to Denver from LA, one of whom also had a birthday! It was so much fun! This is what I love about sitting at the sushi bar, you can easily go as a solo diner and have a great conversation. Because we were two birthday girls seated next to each other, even though my chef was obviously busy, he pulled a few strings and served me an app from sister restaurant, Izakaya Den, a Taro Tuna Taco, and he also served the sisters something fabulous and totally different because he asked us each what we normally love to eat. Yummy - mine was a crisp taro chip formed in the shape of a taco, with spicy tuna and cabbage mix, packed with a perfect balance and dimension of flavors. Moving on to sushi, I had a sublime variety of fish from Japan, ending with a duo of farm raised bluefin and aburi toro. Let me just say, if you haven't been; Go, go to Sushi Den. read more

I'll admit, I was a little skeptical before going to Sushi Den, so many places in Denver get hyped up, and I wasn't sure if it would really stand out from the crowd, especially given how crowded and pricey it can be. But once we sat down and the first round of sashimi came out, it was clear this place takes its fish seriously. The cuts were clean, the flavor was delicate, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. The hamachi and toro were particular standouts, rich but not overpowering. There was a small issue when one of our rolls took longer than the rest of the order, but our server kept us updated and even brought out a small seaweed salad on the house, which was a nice touch and helped smooth things over. I compared a few high-end sushi spots in Denver before booking, and what set Sushi Den apart was the emphasis on traditional technique and ingredient quality. It doesn't rely on over-the-top sauces or trendy combos, it keeps things clean and classic. That said, the menu could be a little overwhelming for first-timers. A bit more guidance or even a short seasonal highlight section would've made ordering easier. We arrived about 20 minutes early and were seated quickly, which we appreciated since we were working around other evening plans. All in all, Sushi Den delivered on quality and service, and while it's not an everyday spot, it's worth the visit when you're in the mood for serious sushi. read more

I understand that Friday night is "take the woman of the week that I really am trying to impress night" but Sushi Den was CRAZY last Friday! Although I can't complain it was funny to see 50+ men with comb-overs attempting to make conversation with short skirted 25-30 somethings with store bought cleavage, this combo always is good for excellent people watching. Cons: The wait was 1 hour and 15 minutes (but it was Friday), one of my friends ordered something and didn't get it (after two bottles of Sake we didn't really notice). We ordered some sashimi for dessert and they had ran out of the particular fish that we had requested, so we told our waiter to "surprise us" he ended up surprising us with the most expensive sashimi on the menu (by most expensive I mean DOUBLE the average sashimi price) I thought that this was in poor taste. Also the atmosphere was very loud and cluttered Pros: Since the wait was so long we got to go 2 doors down to BBs and had a couple of drinks and listened to some music. The food was excellent! The rolls were made with precision; piled with ingredients with excellent rice. The Sashimi was very fresh and since Colorado is a land locked state I give major points for freshness. On the whole it was a great way for me and my friends to begin our evening. I would recomend going on a Tuesday, if you are really trying to impress someone! read more

Sushi Den in Denver is one of the best places to get sushi if you're looking for something really fresh and tasty. It's located on South Pearl Street and has a cool, modern vibe. They fly in their fish daily from Japan, so the quality is super high, and you can definitely taste the difference. Some of the best dishes to try are the Tuna Firecracker Roll, which is spicy and flavorful, and the lobster tempura roll, which is crispy and delicious. Their salmon sashimi is also really good if you like raw fish. The restaurant can get really busy, especially on weekends, so it's smart to make a reservation. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and they'll explain the menu if you're not sure what to get. They also have gluten-free options, which is great for people with food allergies. The prices are a bit expensive, but most people think it's worth it for how fresh and good the food is. A few people say some dishes are overpriced, but overall, it's a really solid spot. If you love sushi or want to try something special, Sushi Den is definitely worth a visit. read more

This place actually should get 4.5 stars. On a business trip with a co-worker we looked on Yelp for a sushi place to go to. She lives in Florida and I live across the river from NYC so its pretty hard to impress us with sushi, but this place was actually good. We both commented that we would come back again. We followed the GPS to drive to this place and almost turned around before showing up because the blocks surounding Pearl street look pretty beat-up. Pearl street itself is nice, very artsy. No problem in finding parking. We were seated right away and had a pretty nice waiter. Got some cold saki which was really good. Ordering is a little tacky with you checking off the rolls you want on a sheet of paper and handing it to the waiter. That would never fly in NYC. We ordered 5 rolls, each was one good and was more than enough for the two of us. Fish tasted fresh, presentation was good, food came out on time. Eel and Fatty Tuna were the favorites. I have nothing to compare it to in the Denver area but on a nation-wide scale it's a 4.5. read more

My girlfriend and I were in Fort Collins for an interview. We decided to hit up Denver afterwards, and found Sushi Den. The food is excellent, the price was reasonable. We ordered the Chef Sampler, which consists of 4 dishes, Sushi Den Duck, Calamari Salad, New Style Salmon and Wasabi Bincho. All 4 dish were portioned for 2 people, and tasted great. The Bento box we order was a pleasant surprise, as the beef was an actual steak and not shredded like most other restaurant, the salmon filet was fresh, California Roll used actual real crabs and the tempura was hot and right out of the fryer. We also order 2 sushi rolls, both were excellent; the portion size was very generous and we had left overs. The waiter actually had a mix up and threw away our leftover we ask him to box, he was very quick to fix the problem by asking the chef to make us new rolls and put it in a take out box before. Overall Excellent food, excellent service; will definitely visit again if we are in the area. read more

My family and I have been loyal patrons of Sushi Den/Izakayas for over thirty years, and we've continued to support them even during the pandemic. We've always appreciated their menu, particularly their fresh and beautifully presented sushi. We've also consistently enjoyed their attentive service. However, our recent experience with the tonkatsu ramen was a letdown. While the presentation was impressive, the long, thin noodles in my ramen lacked the chewy texture and firmness that I expect from high-quality ramen noodles. In addition, the broth was luke warm, the broth base was disappointingly weak, lacking the rich, creamy, and savory flavor that I typically associate with ramen broth. We also ordered our favorite, the Crispy Tuna Firecracker roll. Unfortunately, this time, the dish was not up to our usual expectations. Only part of it was crispy, and part of the rice was kind of cold. We hope that our feedback will help them improve their quality and consistency. read more

This was hands down the best sushi we've ever had! Everything from the food and drinks to the service was absolutely incredible. We started with the crispy rice tuna, which was the perfect way to kick off the meal--so flavorful and delicious. We let our server choose the rest of our order, and they did not disappoint! For nigiri, we had the bluefin and kanpachi, and both were absolutely AMAZING. The fish was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and melted in your mouth. We also tried two rolls--the Dragon Roll and the New Style Salmon Roll--and honestly, every single bite was better than the last. The drinks were just as impressive, and our server was fantastic. They were so knowledgeable and did an amazing job guiding us through the menu and choosing dishes for us. The entire experience felt so thoughtfully curated from start to finish. Seriously, some of the best food, drinks, and service we've ever experienced. We cannot wait to come back and try even more of the menu! read more

An update on our recent experience with Sushi Den. After our past disappointments, we're delighted to share that they've made significant improvements that have won back our support. During our latest visit, we noticed a remarkable difference in both the service and the quality of the food. Our server Berri was attentive and kind, ensuring our needs were met throughout the meal. The portions were back to their generous size, and the sashimi slices were beautifully thick, just as we remembered. The specialty rolls were back to their flavorful and substantial selves. It's evident that Sushi Den is highly committed to regaining the trust and loyalty of their customers, and they've certainly succeeded in winning back ours. We're thrilled to have had such a positive experience and are excited to make Sushi Den our go-to spot for quality Japanese fare. We'll definitely be returning often and recommending them to everyone we know. read more

This Japanese restaurant was fascinating and amazing! I've been a few times, the last one was yesterday with my brother Everything we had was top quality, very authentic and the food is delicious. We got Fresh Seaweed Salad, hamachi, lobster roll, dynamite, and red dragon roll. The service is always so friendly and welcoming. Staff is very quick, from seating us, taking orders to the food arriving. It's also so quick and efficient, great when you're trying to eat in a restaurant peak hours in dinner. The place was so nice and pretty simple and clean. At that time, the restaurant was a bit full of customers and pretty occupied, and lucky for us there still seats available at that time. The ambiance was not that good, but it's still classy and nice. I would recommend all the items I'd mention. This is probably my favorite restaurant at present. If you really want good authentic Japanese food, Sushi Den gives you that. read more

We were having a great date night until the manager came and told us how we got the deal of of our lifetime. Well that's how he was acting when we saved $8 bc they made a price mistake! I just spent 170, you think I give a damn about another $8? What I do care about is you guys go through your menus and and fix your price mistakes. Black cod 16 on the main menu vs 18 on the daily menu. Uni listed under 2 pieces for $8 and then you change it to 1 piece for $8. Don't tell me I got a GREAT DEAL when you guys MADE A PRICE MISTAKE. When you come up to me and say I got a deal for you guys then give me a deal. Don't tell me you are giving me a deal bc you made a price mistake and now you're honoring your price mistake. 4 stars if the manager nvr came and tried to blow smoke up my wazoo. Seriously how do you have the balls to tell a customer that you are giving them a great deal when you guys made a mistake? read more

Simply amazing food & drinks !!! My favorite restaurant of the year hands down !!…read more We tried several cocktails , wine & Omakase sampling for dinner options .

I'm familiar with the Nobu chain of restaurants and understood that this would be similar. We were…read morea party of four that were celebrating a birthday. We ordered Omakase style. Some of courses were delicious and some were mediocre. We spent almost $700 for a party of four. The situation that needs the most improvement was the pace of the meal. The courses were separated by a 20-30-minute wait time. Considering that the courses were very small and contained 5-6 pieces for a party of four... that equates to a little more than a small bite every 20-30 minutes. The dinner took 2.5 hours to develop, and we were honestly still hungry by the end. The waiter started asking us if were "still hungry" at about the fifth courses. By the end, we felt awkward in asking for more. The wagyu beef was particularly disappointing as the beef was somewhat chewy, lacking taste and small. Waiters seemed to be near their capacity of workload. Didn't really take the time to serve, walk you thru the menus, keep the service moving or even gauge your level of satisfaction. We ordered dessert to celebrate the birthday. Apart from a small chocolate plaque on the dessert that said, "happy birthday", there was no attempt to celebrate the occasion as other less exclusive restaurants do... no "happy birthday" wish, no courtesy dessert... nothing special. The best part of this meal was by far, the young couple that accompanied us. Friendly advice: if you want to impress a client with something the feels exclusive... this may be the place. If you are looking for amazing food, being pampered and feeling your money was "well spent", try another place. I don't plan to visit this restaurant soon.

Jacob was fun, knowledgeable and treated us so well. We started with some mixed drinks, martinis! Well done. Gin for me and vodka for her. A little dirty and just right.

After that I had to have the fried dumplings which were so perfect and a great setup for the Brussels sprouts. These Brussels sprouts were exceptional! Mic drop amazing. We had the wagyu beef and the popcorn shrimp. Both were exceptional and I could have gorged on both. We tried not to be complete pigs haha. So good. We had at least two other dishes which were exceptional but I just got carried away with the food and conversation. Everything came at just the right time and we more or less told Jacob what our preferences were and he guided the meal. It was fun to be surprised and enjoy new things. This is one of the few places I trust my experience to the training and professionalism of the staff. A manager stopped by to check in which I thought was a nice touch. I'd love to bring other friends here as well. Great touches. Amazing food and spotless service.

I was in Denver to visit my friend, and I was telling her how I really liked hand rolls and so she recommended this place and it did not disappoint. We got here during happy hour when at first opened and immediately there was already a line luckily we were early so we did get seated a few minutes after arriving, and we were served relatively quickly. We got to sit at the bar and we ordered off of the happy hour menu, which was great because it had more than enough of what I wanted to try. We got several hand rolls and several of their other appetizers, but my favorite has to be their hand rolls. Their seaweed was so crispy and rolled so nicely. The rice was flavorful and their fish was so fresh. I felt like their prices were also pretty reasonable and I was more than content after having that dinner. Overall, I would put this very much on par with a place called Kazunori in LA. I heard that this restaurant has a sister restaurant called sushi Den that I heard was really good and that I will be trying out next time I'm in town. Please come try out Tamaki done if you're ever in the area the food will not disappoint. The restaurant is big with plenty indoor seating, but it will get packed and for good reasons because the food is so good!

To celebrate our anniversary, we decided to come to Temaki Den and it did not disappoint (the hype…read moremakes a lot of sense). We thought we made a mistake choosing sushi bar instead of a table because we'll have back issues. Surprisingly, the chairs had a mini back so you could lean back occasionally. And we think our experience was better because the sushi chefs would explain the origin of the fish and all the ingredients they used into each roll and order. We also got a complimentary piece for sitting at the sushi bar which was a light fried yellow tail which was so good. Service is amazing. They're attentive and check in on you often. It does take some time to get your rolls but give its time to digest. From watching the sushi chefs at the bar, they're very precise in how they make each roll. Every roll has similar proportions from the slight wasabi they use to the amount of rice and fish. Everything that we had was amazing. The hamachi and salmon sashimi felt like butter. It just melts in your mouth. The aged toro was so delicious. Even the edamame was just so good. The unagi nigiri is some of the best I've had in the state (the nigri was better than the handroll and I think it's because I love unagi so I love the ratio in nigiri form). The Spicy Tuna Oshizushi was a surprising favorite of the night along with the Crème Fresh Salmon Belly. I could've done without the wagyu but it was good. Every order does come with only 1 so order based on the amount of people that are with your party. Some items we were unsure of like the wagyu so we ordered 1 and shared a bite. Overall, I understand the hype and the reservations. But it was worth it and I'm surprised we can get high quality fish in a landlock state. Of the high end sushi restaurants in CO, Temaki Den is probably my fave.

Despite misspeaking, the restaurant honored their mistake by providing me additional fish balls, completely free of charge. As for the food itself, the fish balls were quite good. They were seasoned lightly with complementary flavors. Rarely do I experience such excellent service from a restaurant. As a result, I would definitely recommend Toki Ramen and Sushi if you're in the area.

Our server Marvis was great, he greeted us so quickly and talked through his recommendations for cocktails. I ended up trying the Yuzu margarita, which he said was the best drink on the menu, and I absolutely loved it. My friend had a lemon drop and also thought it was perfect. We started with the magic mushrooms appetizer - I almost looked past this but It wasn't mushrooms at all. (Thank god). It was really unique and yummy. I thought maybe they could elevate it a little more by adding some additional seasoning to the shrimp or even leaving it raw to accentuate the cold avocado in the center., but it was still really good. The nigiris were the standouts of the evening. - we tried the seared Ahi tuna, the grilled scallop, and the Unagi. Words cannot describe. If I could make a meal out of Nigiri alone, I would but with just two pieces per serving. It definitely adds up quick. We also got the big kahuna roll and the Pittsburgh roll. The big kahuna was delicious, with a spicy kick at the end thanks to the jalapeño. had a lot of depth of flavors and good texture. We finished off with the Ube crème brûlée, which was really rich and very Ube forward, definitely a unique and yummy dish. Prices are pretty standard for the area, for all this we each ended up paying about $80. Can't wait to come back and try more, and hopefully sit in Marvis' section again!

Although, it's not my favorite sushi spot in Denver. I definitely find myself coming back time after time if I don't want to spend an arm and a leg on sushi but still want some good quality fish.
