   Not worth it. Too loud, drinks were weak and they reuse the same glasses, service was slow.

   This place was a great experience. I booked reservations the day of my visit and had trouble finding parking so we called and they pushed our reservation back a little bit. The food came out fast and it was delicious. The service was outstanding and the environment was gorgeous! I would definitely recommend to come here!

   The experience can be fun with decor and the vibe. The food was hit and miss. Lacking in flavor on a lot of items we had. Braised short ribs was the best thing we ate. Also super salad. Drinks were fun and tasty. Service had a lot to be desired. Went on a Saturday night. Was busy but not overly crowded. Very pricey for food quality and service was not worth the extra service fee they add I assume to pay higher wages, Or health care 4.5%. Is a lot so I hope some goes to the server, but who knows it’s not explained. Lack of service. Entitlement to a tip it seems.

   We came back here because the fish was so fresh. We live in Denver, but made a note when we ate here last time.

   Food was delicious! I got the yellowtail nigiri and cauliflower entree. Went on a Saturday night at 10pm so there was a DJ club vibe.

   We came here to celebrate my wife birthday. After seeing several social media videos it convinced us to come. Our group was disappointed because none of the cool drinks we saw on social media that look very good were not available. We also came for the entertainment which didn’t happen. So it was ok. The drinks were good the food was neutral. My bill was almost $700 dollars and to me not worth the money

   The Zama restaurant is conveniently located in the Gas Lamp District. The staff are nice and provided great service. The food was good, but I believe for a restaurant that serves sushi, the rolls should be brought out one after another. Instead, the server brought all three rolls out at the same time which made it challenging to eat given the small table. I think I would return to Zama for drinks, but I’d much rather go to an authentic sushi restaurant for sushi.
