46 Best Japanese Restaurants near Cherry Hills Village

“Fresh sushi 🍣 and a fantastic Japanese Beer 🍻 and Saki menu“

“Soooo delicious! Just had one of my best meals out in a long while! Every item was delicious and save room for the fried milk dessert — trust me! Plus a great Manhattan with Japanese whiskey“

“Great service and great food!“

“First experience here and from being greeted at the door, to our very attentive server Stephen, and finally to our award winning Chef Duy, it was hands down one of the best sushi experiences I've ever had. Chef Duy is amazingly creative, social throughout, knowledgeable, and cooooooks. Dude is a culinary BEAST. Can't wait to go back. Do the omakase experience.“

“Absolutely loved the food here. Service was also friendly and prompt. I have been looking for a great neighborhood spot that doesn’t break the bank and this is definitely it. Great portions on the nigiri and perfectly fresh. This is my new go to for sushi that could easily rival Uchi or Temaki Den on quality of fish.“

“Quinn and Kristina knock it out of the park every time. This spot is the cleanest and everything is always so fresh tasting. I love coming here for lunch. I found them during restaurant week and they have quickly become a favorite amongst me and my friends!“

“Probably the best chicken wings in town. I've been here multiple times but the last time we had some wings leftover. When I tried it cold at home a couple days later, somehow, the wings were still crispy. Unbelievable. I love this place. Very reasonably priced considering the quality of food you get. Very friendly guy at the register helped us get more rice and soup at request. Can't complain.“

“muy buena atención al cliente y la comida exquisita“

“there is only 1 way to describe this place which would be absolutely amazing. the flavor was on point!!! the restaurant was clean staff was friendly. I can't wait to go back an try more!“

“I live in Colorado Springs and I was craving ramen. I did not go to Nami this time because I didn't want to make the drive....I want to formally apologize to Nami because no other ramen will ever live up to them. Now I know, I'm not craving ramen. I'm craving Nami ramen.“

“Me and babe visited Colorado and I’ve been wanting a good ramen place to eat at and this place is #1 in my book the food was so delicious I tried the Tori ramen and we also shared the gyoza and veggie rolls and they were fried to perfection the sauce that came with them was also delicious 10/10 will come again soon!“

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

“Great food and service! The most tender chicken breast ever. The desserts are so delicious. Clean and cozy dining room. Staff that makes you feel like family. All around fantastic dining experience.“

“We went for bowls of Ramen to ease our holiday coughs and make the colder weather easier. Excellent ramen, both regular and spicy tonkatsu. Broth, noodles, pork belly were everything we wanted. Home made gyoza worth the order. We'll be back.“

“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“

“Located in the heart of Greenwood Village, this casual restaurant offers an inviting atmosphere where you can indulge in delicious sushi and other Japanese fare. The comfortable setting, complemented by a well-stocked bar, makes it an ideal spot for both casual dining and special occasions.

We made a reservation just 30 minutes before our arrival, which turned out to be unnecessary. Since it was a chilly Sunday afternoon, the restaurant wasn't very busy at the time. However, we noticed it started to fill up as we approached dinner time, which speaks to its popularity.

We were excited to try a few specialties from the menu. Our selections included:
Yellowtail on Fire: A delicious appetizer featuring thinly sliced yellowtail sashimi, jalapeño, and cilantro, all drizzled with yuzu soy sauce.
Spicy King Crab Roll: This roll combined shrimp tempura and avocado on the inside, topped with Alaska king crab meat, four kinds of caviar, and a spicy mango sauce. It was a flavor explosion!
Toro Trio: A delightful combination of yellowtail toro, avocado, and scallion, topped with toro of tuna and salmon.

Each dish was incredibly fresh and practically melted in our mouths. We were so full that it was a challenge to finish everything, but it was absolutely worth it! The ambiance and decor of the restaurant were on point, creating a relaxing yet vibrant dining experience. Overall, we had a fantastic late lunch and left with satisfied palates. We will definitely be returning to explore more of the menu in the future!“

“Ended up here on accident when the neighboring restaurant closed early. Score that they did because the service and sushi were top notch great. They have 2 locations in CO that we are going to try when we get home; we live in the area.

We shared 6 rolls. The yellowtail Jalapeños, spicy crispy tuna, titanic, hamachi kama, Shrek, and sunshine. Loved them all. The hamachi kama was really good and because it was a slightly smaller cut, they comped us 20% on it. Very honest and nice establishment. The server was super nice and rolls came out quickly due to it being slower in the late afternoon.

Definitely recommend overall, and definitely better than Haleiwa Joe's if you are in this area of the island. We felt the food was a lot better as we tried Joe's the night before, though the gardens and ambience of Joe's was very nice.“

“This place is a treasure. The food was delicious and the building and garden are so calm and beautiful. Worth going out of your way for.“

“The food was an array of quality. The beef tartare was insanely delicious. I wish I had more

The nigiri offered felt over priced. I'm not sure if some of the offerings were what brought it up, but some cuts tasted amazing, some just felt like run of the mill. This wouldn't have been an issue if the "market price" wasn't so high. I'd love to have seen a breakdown. The nigiri pricing seemed way higher from other, less bougie feeling, sushi spots around and I didn't feel like each piece reflected that with the flavor.
Also $8 for Asahi beer. Had to have been something about the price of brick and mortar lol. $8 is a tall boy elsewhere

As others have stated. Service is extremely slow. My partner and I waited probably 20 minutes after we got drinks for someone to come by. They tried taking our order as soon as we were seated and then didn't come by again until 20 minutes later.

The atmosphere... It was nice. It was moody and modern and I felt like it was a good date environment and place to dress up. There's two different sides. The front of the restaurant is bright and casual and the back, where I sat, was modern and had some clubby beats and music playing.

Not a place I'd go often but the tartare has me not eliminating it from a revisit“

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

“Fanatic service! Great neighborhood restaurant. Check it out 🍣😘“

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

“We love Kobe An and have been patrons going back 30 years since they were in Lakewood. Marco has done an amazing job with the new -er location and his staff is well trained. His newer sushi chefs are doing a fantastic job which leaves him free to focus more on the front of the house. We told him tonight that the sushi is the best it’s been in the 30 years we’ve been going to his restaurants. The hamachi and mussels were outstanding, as were the rolls and cocktails. The new Kobe An is the real deal.“

“Super bowl w/pork and beef. 10/10 with rice.
The kim chi is the absolute best (better than H Mart). Tasty gyoza.

Complementary hot tea.

I just want to reinforce that this is still among my top 3 restaurants and still has the very best kimchi of any I've had from any store or restaurant. If you're sleeping on this in the neighborhood then I implore you try it!“

“Tried Leezakaya with friends and here are my thoughts.

The decor and ambiance is very nice with several areas for tables. There is a bar and a sushi bar where patrons can sit as well.

The food is Japanese pub style with sushi and other traditional items

The less impressive was the service. It took a long time for a server to get our order in (unsure if they were understaffed).

Then the food came out way too quickly as we ordered appetizers and entrees and they didn't give time to finish appetizers before mains were served. This made our table overly crowded. Hopefully they can figure out this for future visits.

The bento box I ordered was very filling.

Next time I'd skip appetizer and just get an entree as the portions were much larger than expected.

There is plenty of parking as they have their own lot and overflow for the strip mall adjacent.“

“Best omakase in Colorado! definitely worth the experience!“

“Loved this!! My first time in, our waiter was so helpful and guided along a delicious adventure. We started with the cucumber salad SO GOOD. Then we got the spicy gyoza, loved the sauce!!! For dinner we split a bowl of ramen and some sushi. Everything was so delicious and only $42. I will be coming back“

“Easily some of the best ramen in town. The noodles are really good quality, and all of the appetizers we had were perfect. The pork bun is the best one I've had in the city so far. Idk what sauce they put on it, but I could eat it by the cup.

Also, another weird thing to praise, but their takeout packing is seriously next level. Like they have the fanciest takeout bowls on earth for their ramen, and they gave us a fancy insulated (like the kind with the reflective aluminum on the inside and a Velcro sealed top) warming bags for our takeout order to keep everything warm for the ride home.

Overall, outstanding takeout, and I'm excited to try dining in next time.“

“Umm what a true gem! The food is so good you love every bite! It reminds me of a mom and pop sushi bar in l.a. … bangin!! Fresh, crisp, and delicious in every bite! And extremely affordable for the quality! Just had lunch with some friends and hands down so fresh and so clean!!!“

“I'll be back! most definitely 👍“

“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!“

“Great atmosphere, good food definitely good sushi!!!“

“It was so good the service it so good and the food came so fast“

“The atmosphere is amazing and the food is very delicious! The food presentation is beautiful, it came in a little boat and was so cute. Staff is friendly and informative. Food came out in a timely manner with no inaccuracies. This is a great small business and I will definitely be coming back! Would 100% recommend :-)

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible“

“Excellent Sushi with every bite!“

“TOKIO is an absolute gem in Denver! I came for the ramen but also loved their sushi! (Monday is $2 salmon night). The ramen menu is stacked with delicious options, my pick was the spicy shoyu, rich and comforting with perfect chashu pork. I also tried the Kyoto Matcha IPA, which was super unique and surprisingly refreshing. Friendly staff, fun atmosphere, and great specials like sea eel and sea urchin. Definitely worth a visit if you're into ramen or want to test your competitive eating skills! (Check out their 5.5lb challenge!)“

“The Best here in Denver away from the ocean“

“amazing! my son and I went for a late lunch and it was so good! definitely going again“

“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!“

“Obento is consistently one of the best places for lunch in Denver. Their bento boxes are always piping hot and have a nice mix of an entree, salad, and usually two sides that can vary. It’s always flavorful, fast and affordable, making it one of my go-to lunch spots. I also love their boba teas—they’re a nice size for the price. Highly recommend!“

“Sukiya Ramen is a consistent 5/5.

My usual order is a build your own ramen.
Tonkatsu broth, thin noodles, chicken, crispy onions, crispy garlic, green onions, bean sprouts, and an order of extra noodles.

Consistently delicious every time!“

“Great food and drinks not to expensive“

“So excited to see that this venue will be hosting StageFluid and can't wait to come to these shows!!!! Sake Brewery??? Count me in!“

“Nice quiet lunch, with simple homemade tasting food. If I had a Japanese grandmother id imagine this is what the experience would be like. There’s a whole lot of really fancy good food nearby so it’s likely I would not return. Still worth a visit if you’re craving simple tasty Japanese food.“

“Awesome food and friendly staff made me, and keep me a regular. The whole family have become "addicts".“

“My daughter wrote on her school paper that Tokyo Joes a was her favorite restaurant when whe was in kindergarten (age 5). She just graduated high school (age 18) and we have continued to visit & enjoy on a regular basis. The great healthy food, comfortable atmosphere and the memories we've shared at a Tokyo Joes, will keep us coming back!“
