50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Englewood

“Had a great experience here! The sushi was incredibly fresh and full of flavor—definitely some of the better quality fish I’ve had in a while. On top of that, the prices were very reasonable for the quality you’re getting, which made it an even better value. The service was also solid—friendly, attentive, and efficient without being overbearing.“

“Awesome food and fantastic service~“

“This is my favorite food place that I’ve visited since moving here to Denver. The ladies working here are very polite and helpful. The food tastes extremely delicious. I absolutely loved my chicken katsu bento as well as my miso soup and salad. Everything is flavorful, the food was prepared quickly to order, and at a very reasonable price. The atmosphere is extremely cozy, quaint and relaxing. Very quiet, calming place to enjoy a meal with a loved one. I highly recommend this establishment.“

“Great sushi spot! Their lunch deal with 3 sushi rolls for under $20 is an amazing value, and everything tasted fresh and delicious. The rolls were well made, flavorful, and very satisfying for the price. And their Thai tea is 🤌🏻 Definitely a great place to stop by for a quick and affordable sushi lunch. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“A very dark and sorted tale of soul killing and agonizing terror with zero hints of intrigue and only heart stabbing comedy at my sole expense that led me here again. is still food here.“

“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“

“Has a good menu, tried a lot of the options. It’s a great lunch spot, and would be a good dinner choice. What was noted is how large the green tea mug is- that’s fantastic, and the bowl of edamame was also large. Minus a star reasoning- good food, quaint location, and friendly service, but nothing felt like “wow, I will brag about that meal”. And there are some sushi meals that I still think about today. So 4 is that’s it’s a good place to go, you’ll have really good meal, and it’ll be at the same cost of other places.“

“Great service and great food!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Loved this little hole in the wall. Excellent food and service. We got the bacon fried rice, which came neatly wrapped in an egg dome. The porklets were delicious, as were the chicken wings. Fast and friendly service. Will go back in a heartbeat next time we’re in Aurora.“

“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“

“This was one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in a long time! The restaurant is so cute from the moment you walk in. A couple friends and I sat at the sushi bar, shared a bottle of sake, crab cheese wontons and several sushi rolls.

The sushi chefs were incredibly kind and surprised us with complimentary salmon nachos while we waited which were AMAZING. To top it all off, they brought us mochi ice cream for dessert.

Every single thing we ate was delicious and the staff made the entire experience feel so welcoming and special. Exceptional food, wonderful service, and such a fun atmosphere. I will definitely be back! 😊🍣✨“

“muy buena atención al cliente y la comida exquisita“

“This is probably the best sushi I’ve had in the Denver area. Also the dining area isn’t cluttered with TV’s and distractions which adds to the experience. They play a lot of pop music which threw me off but the food and service is top notch.“

“Very good Ramen. Will definitely stop by again when we are back in Denver!“

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

“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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.“

“Utterly DELICIOUS! Intimate setting! Treat yourself!“

“I'm so thrilled to see the DOMO is back open. This is one of my all-time favorite restaurants with some of the best food I've ever enjoyed. Entering the restaurant feels like passing through a magic gateway into rural Japan where you get to savor authentic country cuisine. Whether you're eating solo, on a date, or bringing the family, don't pass up an opportunity to enjoy everything the DOMO has to offer! I'll definitely be stopping in the next time I'm back visiting Denver.“

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

“I've been coming to Moonga for a while and it's definitely my go to sushi/ ramen place! Today I got to sit outside since I had my pup with me and they treated her so kindly. Triya was my waitress and was so sweet to bring out water and some rice so my pup could have a snack. The service was so fast and the sushi is amazing!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“I came for the ramen because they make their broth in house as well as their noodles and after trying many other Denver ramen spots, so far the Shirayuki ramen is the best ramen I’ve had outside of Japan. The broth is insanely flavor and has a deep level of richness and texture. It’s perfect. The noodles are to die for IMO - hand pulled and the perfect size and consistency. Honestly I’m not sure what to fault this ramen on other than I want more.

The sushi is pretty good too but not amaaaazing. For the price though it’s an incredible value! Would (and have) already returned. And will likely keep coming back.

They also have some Japanese beers which I always enjoy.

I also wanna say their menus are really nice. 1 big 2 sided laminated page with a color menu. Super nice touch!

Staff is super friendly and welcoming and the decor as you walk in is inviting.

My ONLY complaint is there’s a weird sewage or garbage smell on the outside patio that’s quite off putting. We wanted to sit outside our 2nd time there but had to move indoors to not ruin our appetite.

But the ramen slaps and is my favorite in Denver so far 👌“

“The food has a homemade flavor that you don't really get from other places. I got the Chicken Katsu Don and you could tell it was hand prepped and made. The slightly sweet sauce paired nicely with the otherwise savory dish. I also tried the Karage and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was.

There is only 1 thing that keeps this away from 5 stars and thar is the Boba. I got the strawberry one and it was a bit too strong. Having almost a perfume flavor to it. But I also tried the normal milk tea and that was delicious, better than some milk tea specific places I have been too.“

“My husband took me here for my birthday last night. Our first time there. Everything was absolutely amazing and delicious! We had the Omakase. Outstanding! I highly recommend this place! The atmosphere was beautiful, clean and perfect. The sushi chefs were very nice and talented. Very impressive! Can’t wait to go back!“

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

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

“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.“

“Incredible food. Amazing service. A perfect meal!!! Trust the waiters to bring you just the right dish. Perfection!“

“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.“

“Fantastic food and atmosphere!!!“

“Favorite place ever to come!!!! Best best best curry and sushi!!! great quality! Mario was great and made fun for sitting at the counter! AND the owner loves Hannah Montana and was playing a great playlist!! and we also had G as our server! Thank you all so much!!“

“We love Kumoya! It is such a hidden gem. We came tonight for our anniversary and every single bite was delicious. The staff had personalized the menus for us after reading our reservation. Our waitress was so kind and knowledgeable. We love to sit at the sushi bar and watch the chefs in action! We always recommend to our friends and family who have a special occasion or just love phenomenal food. We will continue to come back again and again!“

“High quality food, top notch service!
Peter, Christine, Eric, Ong and the rest of the team at Taki always make the experience special - even if its something as simple as a fun garnish on my plate or remembering my name and my favorite pieces.
I come around probably once a week since I live nearby, so I can walk home after enjoying a small bottle of sake.
Today I tired the hand rolls and was shocked by the sheer size and how absolutely stuffed they were! Also, the sake nigiri pieces are larger than life and I am obsessed with their umami red snapper and the beautiful presentation of the amaebi, sweet shrimp. I always get multiple orders of ikura and leave stuffed!
Love love love this place!“

“Best sushi I’ve ever had. We were traveling from out of state & the only thing I have to complain about is there aren’t any locations outside of Denver, ruined all other sushi for me. Can’t wait to come back.“
