Server chose things for us and kept it a surprise. He did incredible, everything was so great.

It was good not great. We ordered two apps and two entrees, our waitress admitted she forgot to course it out so we received all four dishes within a few minutes of each other. The food was okay, nothing blew me away and the quality didn't feel like it matched the prices. The ramen that our waitress said was one of the most popular things on the menu was very underwhelming. The drinks were WEAK to an unacceptable degree. I don't drink much but I like a fancy cocktail every now and again, husband and I each had two drinks (about $65 total, the drinks are not cheap) and neither of us had even the slightest buzz. Serving super expensive but weak drinks is pretty lame. Finally, the music. I was very confused by the loud thumping techno, it ruined any hint of ambiance the place would have otherwise had. All in all this place seems overhyped and overpriced and we would not recommend it or eat there again.

Absolutely wonderful experience at Kawa Ni. Staff as attentive and helpful. Ambiance is beautiful. The food was a 10/10, pork Szechuan dumplings and the red coconut curry onigiri are to die for.

Kawa Ni was fantastic!! The hamachi was delicious and the karaage don v2 was my favorite dish, one of the best things I've ever tasted! Great service and food.

One of my favorite restaurants in Denver. The food is delicious. Every. Single. Time. So much so that I always get a order to go. And, the service is impeccable. In addition to the crappy parking (give yourself at least 10 minutes to drive around), the only downfall, is it's really really, really really loud.

Unreal food - Great lively atmosphere - Had a client group in for Dinner. Everything was outstanding and several Chefs were part of our group. Our server was exceptional and we followed her suggestions for appetizers. Everything was so good that we asked her to just keep ordering for us until we were full. We had all the greatest hits and everything was on point. Fun vibe great food you won't be disappointed.

Everytime I eat here I'm impressed. The food, service, and ambiance is always stellar. My favorite dishes are the miso brócoli and the pork ramen. 10/10 recommend.

Food is exceptional. Service is very friendly and accommodating. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. They were able to easily accommodate my gluten and dairy allergies.

Unfortunately the service was completely lacking from the server. Guaranteed 20% on the bill added to this. I always tip 20+. This would have been the .005% where I would have done 15. She didn't know any answers to questions I had. Example: I asked about the base spirit on a cocktail, never expecting her to know, and she said she'd ask. Came back with some whack answer. Way off. Asked about the prep on a sashimi app, had no clue. She'd never be around when needed her. Took 10 min to get my check after I asked for the bill. The busser was AWESOME though. Extremely helpful. Will be back and hoping for good service next time. Very cool place.
Nice restaurant and food , however the noise level was over the top. We could not even talk amongst ourselves. Deafening. Please take note!

As soon as we walked in we were greeted and even though our table was not ready the host escorted us to the bar. At the bar we had a wonderful interaction with the bartender Drew. I mentioned that it was my partners birthday and he came back with Sake Bombs! so fun. The food was incredible, our favorite thing was the Tuna Temaki, it was simply divine. I loved this place; we will be going back again. The only thing I will mention is they do apply a 20% Surcharge on your bill, but it is not technically the tip, I had never seen that before.

Truly one of the top 5 dining experiences ever. Amazing cocktails, outstanding food, exquisite service. This was my second visit and it certainly lived up to all the rave reviews once again. Terrific!
Lindsay
Loved our dinner! Big shoutouts to Silas for service and making this family dinner amazing.

Ordered 10 dishes and every single one was full of flavor and outstanding. Our server coursed out our dishes from lighter to heavier so that made our experience even better!
