Food was absolutely incredible but the customer service needs to be refined. We were told when checking in that the restaurant needs the table by 7:30 ( mind you it’s 5:30). I understand the time limit request but there are other ways to say it. The host walks us to our table and we realize the restaurant is nearly empty. Why the need for a rude demand of being done by 7:30? Lastly, in an empty room the host sits us right in between two tables that had guests. There were several other open tables and it felt really aware and close to sit that close to each other especially when there were options.
Again, food was fantastic but the management team needs to reassess customer service with their staff.

Delivery order. The portions were tiny, everything smaller than usual. No dipping sauce with the karaage, no wasabi with the sushi, miso Caesar didn't include listed ingredients. Always been overpriced, but at least there were good portions and good quality. If attention to detail is slipping, and portions are shrinking, absolutely not worth the price.

Overpriced and the sushi tasted old. On top of that the prices are twice as much as other spots in Denver. I was not impressed.

The restaurant looks better than the food tastes. The cocktail was weak, the staff was ok. The chef sashimi was very disappointing. 3 types of tuna and salmon...We didn't finish the sashimi. And this is coming from people who have never left sashimi uneaten. Will not visit again any time soon.

I believe I tried the Bamboo Dragon and the Friday the 13th roll which were okay. I was more impressed by the salmon nigiri flight adding the king salmon belly. The king salmon belly and the Masu were my favorite I would go back just for the king salmon belly and to try the miso soup, their regular spicy salmon roll and either the sun set or the unicorn roll. Parking sucks but it’s Denver what can you expect- just plan ahead.

I’ve been here many times and for many celebrations.. always love coming here! I’ve also noticed the waitstaff stays for awhile so I assume most of them enjoy working here as well? Always love the food and recommend my friends, obsessed with green machine, figured it was time I share my review! We moved from Sunnyside to DTC and still prefer Bamboo over anywhere else. ?

Good sushi, cool vibe, and fair prices! The nigiri was a bit small, but we loved the Friday 13th. We're definitely coming back to try the spicy tuna cake. Thanks Jorge for your warm hospitality!

Let me preface this review by saying I don’t eat seafood. Don’t get me wrong I love sushi… but I only eat vegetarian sushi so if that makes me lose all credibility in your eyes you can stop reading now.
Still with me? Okay good! Now let me start by saying for my vegetarians out there, they have one of the largest selections of vegetarian menu options I have seen at a sushi restaurant. Seriously they get a 10/10 for that! My sister and I tried this place on a whim and were so pleasantly surprised. You can see everything we order pictured below.
We arrived around 6pm on a Tuesday and were sat and greeted immediately by our lovely server and because we were in a bit of a hurry we ordered right away. The food was brought out as it was ready— which we loved! and timed perfectly. Loved the vibe of this location as well.
Now for the food. Get the spicy edamame. It was some of the absolute best I’ve ever had! You can’t tell by the picture but there was chili oil in the bottom of the bowl and once you mixed it all together it became perfection. The avocado nigiri was exquisite as well. Okay and don’t even get me started on the tempura cauliflower… like WOW. Incredible. Amazing. Give me 14 of em right now.
…..now onto the things we didn’t ~love~ the smashed avocado crispy rice was good! A little cold and chewy and kind of reminded me of avocado toast but not a total bust, just probably not the dish for me, no big deal!
BUT the real villain of the evening was the green machine roll. Don’t be fooled by the enticing description on the menu. It was foul. And I mean look at it, it looks as if my cat threw up on it. Absolutely no hate to the people who like this roll but it made us gag. It was so putrid I’m having a hard time putting it into words. I think the roll without the sauce would have actually been perfect but the sauce on top was oddly sweet and earthy but not the good kind of earthy, the kind of earthy where your dog just took a steamy hot pile of caca and then it rained. That kind of earthy.
Other than that one tiny thing… everything else was incredible!! 5 stars!! Totally go here! Just steer clear of the green machine roll. I wouldn’t even give it to my worst enemy

haven’t had a lot of sushi so far but this place is really good. tried the spicy tuna crispy rice, fry tide, bamboo dragon, spicy edamame, and everything was really good. especially liked the fry tide
I’m usually not a sushi fan but thought this place was pretty good (that’s a compliment from me - my husband loves sushi and loved the food!). Miso soup and appetizers were great and the sushi was also good. Service was attentive. Would recommend
My first time here on a friends recommendation and it did not disappoint! We caught the tail end of happy hour and ordered the ceviche which was delicious. We also got the green roll and the tuna crispy rice. Both of these dishes I would HIGHLY recommend. Prices felt average for Denver and the food was worth what you were paying for. Good atmosphere too, perfect for a date or family outing!
