Located in the heart of Denver, CO, the restaurant delivers consistently excellent cuisine made from the finest ingredients from around the world. Master Chef Toshi Kizaki, the visionary behind Sushi Den, continually raises the bar and sets the standard for the restaurant’s high quality cuisine.

The fish is then dry iced and reaches the restaurant within 24 hours. The company’s Den Farm in Brighton, CO, supplies fresh vegetables year round due to its technologically advanced greenhouse.

Sushi Den was recommended by a friend of mine. We visited with a group of about 6 of us. We were seated promptly (be sure to make a reservation well in advance!) and our server was excellent! The sushi is incredibly fresh, better than any I've had in Southern California. Wonderful assortment of sushi and rolls. Great sake menu. Solid... More

This place is perfect for any time. Sushi is GREAT. If you ever go here on Friday or Saturday. You should expect to wait for 1 to 2 hours.

I've been hearing about Sushi Den for a year now since moving to Denver, and now I understand why. I met three colleagues here for a business lunch, and we had a wonderful experience. Showed up at noon, and the place filled up within 10 minutes - I knew it was a good sign. The restaurant was much bigger than... More

Sushi Den is my go to place for Sushi in Denver if I want to impress my company. Situated in the cool little neighborhood by DU off Pearl Street there is usually a wait for this restaurant to get a table. The service has always been good, but most importantly the sushi here is the best in Colorado. The Toro... More

I've eaten sushi in Boston, New York, Los Angeles and Denver and The Sushi Den has the best sushi anywhere, period. It's worth spending a bit more for their original rolls - they're superb. They make an excellent seaweed salad and a unique and wonderful mushroom salad. They also serve entrees of fresh fish, Japanese noodles and all are delicious.... 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... More

Our favorite sushi restaurant in Denver. Try the Grilled Shitake Salad to start, Tuna Tataki then anything on the sushi menu, you can't miss. It's best to get there early if you have kids, it can get crowded and loud at peak times.

I went here for my birthday on recommendation of all the things i've read about it. We weren't dissappointed, we got several rolls and about 4 different pieces of fish. We ordered so much we even had some left over rolls. We got the plum wine which they served with a lemon slice, i've never seen that before, but it... More

Nobu is number one. Period. But this is number two. A vibrant and busy place in the suburbs of Denver. The place was rocking on a Sunday evening. Severs were everywhere. There are two seperate bars plus a sushi bar. Our server was very well versed in the menu, knew the fish flavors well, and was an expert in the... More
