50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Centennial

“Great place! The service is wonderful, food is fresh, drinks hit the spot and environment is friendly, clean and welcoming.“

“I’ve been coming here for years and absolutely love this place! The customer service is always great, the food is delicious, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and amount of food you get. Definitely one of my favorite spots!“

“Really enjoyed our experience at Kinoya Sushi & Izakaya! If you’re looking for all-you-can-eat sushi with a good mix of sushi, sashimi, rolls, and Japanese dishes, this is definitely a place worth trying, especially with a group of friends so everyone can order different items and share.

We started with the Baked Mussels, which were creamy, rich, and flavorful. The Beef Short Ribs were thinly sliced, tender, and easy to eat, with a really good marinade and seasoning.

The Sushi Tasting Plate was another highlight, and the Yellowtail Jalapeño was easily my favorite. The yellowtail tasted fresh, and the jalapeño added just the right amount of flavor without overpowering the fish.

I also highly recommend the Chawanmushi with Crab (Steamed Egg Custard). It was light, fluffy, silky, and tasted great. Just keep in mind that it takes around 15–20 minutes to prepare, so I recommend ordering it early rather than waiting until the end of your meal.

For the rolls, we tried the Toro Scallion Roll, Kobe Beef Roll, and Aurora Roll. All three were very well balanced, and I was especially impressed with the rice. The texture and rice-to-filling ratio were on point, which makes a huge difference when it comes to a good sushi roll. This is definitely a great spot if you enjoy trying a variety of specialty rolls.

For sashimi, we had the Super White Tuna, Yellowtail, Freshwater Eel, and Salmon. Everything we tried was fresh and tasted really good. I do wish the dinner AYCE menu allowed a higher limit on the sashimi pieces considering the dinner price, but regardless, the quality was definitely there.

The Miso Butter Mussels were also very good, savory, buttery, and packed with flavor.

One of my absolute favorites of the meal was the Hamachi Kama. If you enjoy grilled yellowtail collar, I definitely recommend ordering it. It was flavorful, satisfying, and especially enjoyable with a cold beer. 🍺

Overall, Kinoya Sushi & Izakaya is a great choice for all-you-can-eat sushi, especially if you come hungry and bring a group of friends. There’s enough variety to try a little bit of everything, from sashimi and specialty rolls to hot Japanese dishes. The quality of the fish and sushi rice stood out to me, and there were several dishes I would absolutely order again.

Favorites: Yellowtail Jalapeño, Hamachi Kama, Chawanmushi with Crab, Toro Scallion Roll, Kobe Beef Roll, and Aurora Roll. 🍣

Definitely worth checking out if you’re a sushi lover.“

“Wow! What a great AYCE Sushi restaurant! Price is worth every penny! The dinner options have specialty rolls and full appetizers that are Not skimpy and full of flavor! My son loved the chicken yakitori. We have a new sushi restaurant. It’s so clean and people are so friendly! Thank you!“

“It was delivered fresh and hot. In addition, Deborah F’s order (and her child’s) was delivered to me. It was sooo good. I’m sorry the other Deb didn’t get her meal this evening, but I can attest that Tokey Joe makes good food using fresh ingredients. I would have given 5 stars, but only gave 4 because they goofed up someone else’s order.“

“I had brought my client in for lunch today.. The service was fast and the food was delicious! I highly recommend this place!“

“First off. Beautiful restaurant. Very attentive staff. Food wise I probably came on an off night. The gyoza was very good. But the karrage chicken was burnt which ruined the otherwise juicy chicken. The sushi had good flavor but so many of them fell apart before even being touched. Watched 2 just fall apart in front of my eyes (pictured) So not the best did but based on reviews im guessing an off night“

“I am addicted to this place. I am in love with their Shoyu ramen with soft boiled egg and their vegetable tempura. There are many options for other ramen as well as other Japanese dishes and sushi. It's small but cozy. I just love it!“

“muy buena atención al cliente y la comida exquisita“

“Deliciously fresh sushi. ALWAYS excellent service. Ask for Sonny, he's amazing! This is by far our go-to sushi restaurant!! you can't go wrong“

“Incredible experience every time. Mike takes personal care of us as he always has since we met him at the Westminster location. Omakase is a must for anyone who loves sushi. Chef is a super hero. 5 stars.“

“When I say a 20 out of 10! The portions are big, the service is on point, and the flavor is perfection. The food here looks and tastes as good as the pictures and I promise you, you will not be disappointed! For instance a large order of the chicken wings is about the weight of a whole chicken! Sauces are amazing and the location gives you things to do either before or after you eat. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“I had the pleasure to eat at this fine establishment over the weekend with some great people! Let’s just say Sushi Den do not disappoint for my fist experience and will definitely be back. Everything was awesome from the cocktails to the Nigiri and high end Whisky!“

“Such a gem of a restaurant! The korean lady serving us was so sweet. We had questions regarding our dietary restrictions and she was so patient with us and explained everything thoroughly.
We like to avoid mirin/sake and cross contact with meat when eating sushi and she explained that they only use vinegar to season their rice and their meat and fish stations completely separate. 10/10 just for that!
We ordered-
1.Spicy tuna rolls- 10/10
2.Castle pines rolls- 10/10, this was so good!
If you are living in this area you must visit them or, like us, if you are just driving through Colorado on your way to see garden of the gods or something like that, you better stop and try it out!
10/10, definitely recommend 👌“

“Awesome food and fantastic service~“

“Great Food!!! Come here whenever I come to Denver.❤️❤️“

“We went to Fuji Hibachi for an early Father’s Day dinner with our 3 kids on Friday night. It was great! The food was delicious. We had sushi and food from the grill, appetizers and sake. Our Hibachi chef was entertaining and sweet with our kids, the waitress was very sweet and prompt. The sushi was perfect! We had the best time. Can’t wait to come back again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.“

“The Japanese restaurant offers an exceptional experience, with sushi that is remarkably fresh and a salad that is truly amazing. The beautiful Japanese decoration theme creates an elegant and authentic atmosphere that perfectly complements the delicious food.“

“Me & my boyfriend love coming here for special occasions. I came for my bday and we were hoping Nicole would be our server because we always love her. We unfortunately got another guy that had no personality and wasn’t very friendly. He also forgot it was my birthday but that’s okay! We still had a great time and enjoyed our food. They got oysters recently and they were extremely delicious, highly recommend!“

“Awesome place for sushi 🍣 😋 and soup! My favorite is the Lucky 7's roll, I think it is called.... took a picture after eating most of it, though..... lol fried and crispy and decadent! The $12 lunch special comes with a few of the less expensive rolls and a cup of beautiful miso soup. I recommend the spicy trio. The waitress is super sweet and she always leaves you with a sesame ball for dessert.“

“Utterly DELICIOUS! Intimate setting! Treat yourself!“

“Best sushi in Parker. So fresh.“

“I love it. Eat here regularly. Teriyaki chicken is the BOMB!!!“

“Absolutely delicious! Great sushi, fresh fish, and fantastic prices. The staff is friendly and amazing! So glad I found this place!“

“Pretentious “modern “ look, very narrow place, tiny 15x15” wall mounted tables, one toilet only. Sushi : 60% rice, inferior gluey without vinegar seasonings,stingy on ingredients, comparable to King Soopers. Makes one wonder about the authenticy of those reviews“

“Sushi that’s delicious and reasonably priced? Can’t do better than Taki Sushi. The staff is super nice. Never had a bad roll here. Atmosphere is cozy and relaxed. Love that they’re open a little later than most sushi places when I’ve had a late night and really craving sushi.“

“Great food I loved this place looked very clean and inviting. They are open late which is very convenient. Only thing I would have changed was how the servers stair at you while your eating made it kind of awkward but it was also nice because they were right then when you needed them. I will continue to go there because the food was really good.“

“Delicious sushi etc. I was told they are owned by Sushi Den. This is by far the best Japanese restaurant in town! I highly recommend. They have buzzers at the table if you need your waitperson! What a great time we had.“

“We came in late at night like evil evil people, that team was wonderful to us, Krista, our server, was on top of everything, had a smile the whole time, and recognized some of us from last time. I work in food, super respectable and impressive, the food and atmosphere is always wonderful when I go, I couldn’t glaze this place enough. Thank you Krista, Thank you Kitchen team, Thank you Sukiya. BEST RAMEN IN COLORADO“

“Delicious ramen! Friendly service and good selection of foods. Definitely a new favorite!“

“Guys, if you don’t want to spend ALL your money on ramen and poke, DO NOT try this place. 😂

I discovered this spot a couple of weeks ago, and now I come here literally every single day they’re open (they’re closed on Tuesdays, unfortunately) to get some ramen. And OMG. It’s ridiculously good.
I genuinely don’t know when I’m going to get tired of eating here every day. I’m obsessed. Absolutely in love with this place.

PLEASE, do not come here unless you’re ready to get addicted and become a ramen-and-poke junkie like me. You’ve been warned. 😂❤“

“Excellent Sushi with every bite!“

“Our office did take out from this restaurant and we were all super impressed. We had a variety of makis and sushi's, beef, fried rice, miso soup, and salad. Everything was super fresh, pleasing to the eye and very delicious. Definately will go for date night with my husband to eat at the location. I haven't had sushi this good in a long time.
