For over 37 years, Sushi Den has been regarded as one of the premiere sushi and Japanese restaurants in the United States. Located in the historic Old South Pearl St. neighborhood 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 & sets the standard for the restaurant’s high quality cuisine. Youngest brother, Koichi, lives in southern Japan where he makes daily trips to the fish market to purchase fish for the restaurant. The fish is dry iced and reaches the restaurant within 24 hours. Sushi Den’s mission is to maintain one of the nation’s top sushi restaurants through fresh ingredients, innovative, healthy dishes and exceptional service.

We utilize available seating at both Izakaya Den, our sister restaurant next door, and Sushi Den for all reservations through the Sushi Den portal on

    I have gone to Sushi Den for many years, always and consistently great Japanese food and quality service. Sushi Den is one of the few places in Denver that offers true Japanese foods. The quality of each item is excellent, the preparation and presentation are outstanding. Sushi Den attends to the smallest details that make the dining experience memorable each time.

    The sushi is always fresh and expertly prepared, and the pace of delivery was just right. Despite always being busy, our server was very attentive and enthusiastic. The seating is fairly tight in a place that is always busy, so expect a boisterous atmosphere and not a quiet evening.

    other menu items look tempting, but I'm stuck on the chicken katsu lunch: juicy chicken filet deep fried in a crunchy batter and drizzled with a traditional sauce that has a perfect blend of salty and fruity sweetness. the cole slaw accompaniment and dollop of mashed potatoes round out the entreé.

    All of the food was great. We got multiple sushi rolls which were all high quality. The steak entree was excellent. The yakitori skewers appetizer was the only questionable food item, some pieces of chicken breast were really chewy or really crunchy which was weird and concerned us about if the chicken was cooked properly. Service overall kinda sucked. Our server took over 25 mins with our drinks and basically recommended the whole menu/circled nearly everything when trying to select sushi we should try. She also was slow to return to the table so we had what felt like a very disjointed meal. The person who ordered steak at our table was served their entree and finished it before any of the other appetizers or sushi had come out which was awkward. Our friends had a good previous experience at this restaurant but we were first timers so we were disappointed. Likely would still be willing to try again because the food was good.

    We had a wonderful meal. I love the variety of fish. Some I had never heard of before. Some favorites are the Toro and Tuna, Miso Cod, and the Kana (either one). The service is fantastic. Next time I want to try the chefs table.
