Best Japanese Restaurants in Highlands Ranch / Lone Tree

What an amazing experience!!!! I took my daughter to celebrate her birthday. It was so much fun. The food amazing and the experience outstanding!!! It was our first time but it won’t be the last!!!!!

Sushi is always fresh and delicious and atmosphere is lively and energetic. They had a few new menu items which included the kanpachi and matcha tiramisu. Both were outstanding.

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!

Delicious food and sushi! Cute small sushi bar and restaurant with exceptional wait staff. Even something as simple as their fried rice was some of the best I’ve ever had!! We will be making this our new sushi spot!
