Tried to order some of their new peppercorn sauce on my bowl. Apparently that's not possible. It only comes on the one bowl. Tried to order the peppercorn steak bowl and modify it a bit. Also not possible. Can't be modified. The entire point of this place is modifying the bowl. Probably not coming back. There is a point at which bureaucracy starts to mess up chain restaurants and make the customer experience worse. This place had a good run, but I'm done. read more

I used to absolutely love this place. The last at least 5 times I've been there it's been down right horrible. I don't know if they get their salmon from a different place or what but it's disgusting and I won't be going there anymore. This was the last straw. I don't normally get a garnish but the person taking my order asked so I chose the poached egg. When I got home and opened it up there was a raw egg all over my bowl. I tried to microwave it and it just wouldn't cook . It was so disgusting I don't think I'll be able to eat eggs or salmon for awhile. Then I called and was supposed to be issued a refund on my card and as of yet it hasn't happened. 32.00 waste of money. Very disappointed. All I wanted was something healthy cuz I had covid last week and am still too weak to go to the store...hopefully I have a yogurt or something til I get a chance to go to the store.... read more

Tokyo Joe's is pretty average. Not sure there's really much I can say about it beyond that. It's your standard Japanese food court affair, which is something you definitely crave every once in a while and Tokyo Joe's gets the job done. Got one of the build your own bowls, and overall, a solid meal. Main complaint is that the ratios are a bit off: way too much rice and not nearly enough meat, though that seems to be a common pattern among plenty of these places. I will concede that their dragon sauce has some kick. Definitely above average spiciness though a bit salty. Came here since I got a $5 off from the rewards program, and definitely worth it at that price. Not sure I'll be back though. TIP: Dragon sauce is good if you like spice. read more

It is rare that I give any restaurant 5 stars, so let me tell you why Tokyo Joes in Cherry Creek mall has earned 5 stars from me. The gentleman who took our order, and I did not get his name but for management who may look at this review, my children and I were there late the evening of March 7, 2018, and the guy had black hair and a facial piercing. He was phenomenal! He was very patient with my children and I, giving us recommendations. This may seem like something most people at any restaurant *should* do, but it isn't what happens. So I was very pleasantly surprised when it did. He was very respectful and polite. It was much appreciated. Thank you! read more

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.

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.

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.

The flavors were good but not quite as stand out as the appearance. It could have used something - the pork was a little too lean and could have used more texture. The eel roll was really good, always one of my favorites. The elite lunch was standard, the salmon sashimi was really fresh and loved the white fish, the rest was just okay for me. The Yaki Udon was excellent. Great selection, reasonable prices. Would definitely come back!

Cravings absolutely satisfied…read more We were in CO for the Rocky Mountain Siberian Husky Club specialty and I cannot go anywhere without having some sort of Asian food. That evening, I was craving pho. Pho 92 came recommended and I was immediately drawn to the clear broth in the photos while researching Yelp for Vietnamese food. It was a Thursday evening when we arrived at Pho 92, and the restaurant was packed. It was loud, with staff bustling about and patrons enjoying their meals. The aroma of the pho broth was just as I had hoped for a busy restaurant. We waited approximately 10 min for a table. The staff were pretty efficient and looked to have a good system going for bussing tables. Hailing from CA, I am no stranger to good pho, and this place hit the spot. I'm so glad I decided to get the regular instead of the large, because wow those portion sizes were indeed huge. My husband made the "mistake" of ordering the combination vermicelli bowl, and it came packed with tender proteins and crispy egg rolls. That just meant for some delicious leftovers (that actually reheated perfectly). The pho broth was as clear as I had imagined from looking at other patrons' photos. It still had a good depth of flavor, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had been a long travel day for us, so I didn't want oily soup. (Sometimes I do enjoy rich, oilier pho broth, but not that night.) The pho came with a plethora of herbs, which I of course used all of. Be warned that their chili oil is very spicy, which I accidentally put too much of without first trying (oops). I generally don't go to the same spot twice during a trip, as I enjoy trying out different local businesses, but Pho 92 would have been a spot I'd return to again if we had had the time and if I had wanted pho again. Their menu is huge, so there are plenty of dishes to choose from to satisfy your cravings, whatever those might be for any given day. We will definitely be back the next time we visit CO!

This was pretty disappointing as I was really anticipating a great experience all around after seeing the Yelp reviews and getting recommended this place by a local. I was also excited when I saw the expansive menu with lots of great-looking options. The food was also subpar for my tastebuds. The scrambled eggs were lukewarm and lacked flavor. The pancake crumbled as soon as you put syrup and tried to pick it up. The best part was the chicken sausage, which was served hot and not too salty or oily. I really liked the vibe inside, with the open feeling and the red brick interior. There are clean bathrooms. Our waitress was really great - super kind and attentive. Unfortunately the kitchen lacked. It was convenient being able book a reservation, they also have a waitlist that you can join prior to heading to the restaurant. I probably would skip this place if you're visiting from out of town like I am. There are a lot of other brunch spots in the city that I would want to try instead.

This diner proves that you…read morecan have dessert for breakfast with their extensive list of sweet breakfast items ranging from cereal-themed French toast/pancakes to filled-donut flights. I got a taste of their jelly from the side they gave me with my scramble and it was the best jelly I've ever had in my life. I'd so buy a jar of it to bring back home next time I'm in Denver if they have it for sale! Our server was so informative about the menu options and gave us recommendations. I was so indecisive with my coffee choice and he helped me narrow it down to a classic cappuccino- blessed! He was kind enough to let us order a to-go item ahead and placed it on the side for us to pick up before heading out. The food came out very quickly and pipping hot as well. The Boulder Scramble 8/10: Slightly heavy on the feta but who doesn't like cheese?! The potatoes were well-seasoned and the sour cream added richness to the meal. Sourdough was lightly toasted and extra yummy with the smooth side of butter and sweet jelly.

The food at Jelly is worth the visit…read more We ordered a 9-pack of donuts, and the base donut itself is fantastic -- soft, fresh, and flavorful. The variety of toppings makes it fun to mix and match. The Thai Peanut was unique and surprisingly good, but the Mexican Chocolate was the clear favorite at the table. I had the avocado toast. The side salad was a standout -- spinach, small orange slices, and a berry vinaigrette. Super fresh, light, and refreshing. My husband got the biscuits and gravy and said it had great flavor with a nice kick of spice. Vegetarian options were clearly labeled, with a note to ask about vegan swaps. The service, unfortunately, didn't match the food. We waited at the door for at least 10 minutes without being acknowledged. After we were seated, our server started taking our order but stopped midway to run someone else's food. We also never got water refills, and with just one napkin each for donuts and a full meal, I found myself folding and refolding mine a million different ways. Overall, service felt slow and a bit disjointed, like we weren't a priority. If the service improved, this would easily be a go-to brunch spot.

There was a tonnnn of construction out front so it took us a bit to find parking, but we persevered for the sush! And I'm glad we did. We were probably one of like two maybe three groups of people in the restaurant so it was rather slow, but again, very late on a weeknight so I wasn't super surpised. We ordered a bunch of different rolls and I'm assuming because we were pretty much the only ones there, they decided to serve it to us on the sushi boat! FIVE STARS FOR A SUSHI BOAT MOMENT! I went crazy. Absolutely loved it!!! What a fun way to serve our sushi. The sushi we ate was super delicious and fresh and I really enjoyed it. I feel like I got more full quicker, so I wonder if they use a lot of rice, but again, it was all so good and delicious. Definitely would recommend this spot for sushi.

I ordered the spring rolls for an appetizer and they were hot and tasty, and came with a delicious sweet chili dipping sauce that I really enjoyed. The sushi was obviously the best part of the meal.

It was almost my favorite roll but the Sex on the Beach roll was the star of the show! It was my first time having a roll with lemon on top but it was the perfect flavor pairing, OMG!! I couldn't stop thinking about how good that roll was for the rest of the day, I highly recommend it! Service was fast because I visited after a morning snow which I enjoyed.
