    Again, as always, the food is the star here. There is truly no better (some as good) sushi in Denver or a many, even hundreds of miles mile radius. On this particular night, the crowd was bigger and louder than usual and the service perhaps struggled a bit to keep up with the volume. Usually the ambience is a little more peaceful and the design/decor elements are quite lovely. We go back again and again for the amazing foo, that while pricey, is Incredible. As strange as it sounds for a land-locked state, we have eaten all over the world and will always hold Sushi/Izakaya Den as the gold standard.

    HIDDEN GEM! I stumbled across ads and recommendations while searching for a new local sushi place to try. Very reasonable price point and EXCEPTIONAL quality. After the first course, we started planning a repeat visit for an upcoming Omakase (chef’s choice) dinner, which they offer ~ monthly. The owner Jesse even stopped by to chat when she learned it was our 1st visit. Bonus: Basic hot sake is very affordable too!

    Our chef was an absolute blast! I believe his name was Phil? He was personable, funny and related to us all at the table. My two kids had never been before and had the time of their life! The food was fantastic, flavorful and cooked exactly as we requested. Our chef continued to check with everyone to see if we were satisfied while also making us laugh. Bartender made an awesome lemon drop too. All the employees we saw were friendly and greeted us with smiles. We will definitely be returning !
