It's so obvious that they care. It's my wife and I new favorite date spot. We also love thier sister location fuyu Ramen.“

“I must admit, I’m surprised to say this, but this restaurant in Denver is my favorite. Occasionally, I prefer place that are one-of-a kind locations, but I’m consistently impressed with how well they manage their business and provide the best hospitality in Denver. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive to detail, making you feel welcome and valued. They have several locations, and they consistently deliver the most delightful service. It’s an incredible place to celebrate with friends or my favorite date night spot. The HH prices are also incredibly reasonable for the quality of food and drinks.“

“Great service! Friendly folks. They were very open and honest when my husband asked about which menu items were safe for someone with a shellfish allergy. They told us that the whole menu was off-limits to people with shellfish allergies. Many thanks and I wish this place the best. If you don't have a shellfish allergy, you should eat here!“

“Highly recommend this place! The food is delicious and beautifully crafted, and the pricepoint is reasonable as well. This is a great healthy, vegan option and I will definitely be a regular!“

“I liked my salmon bowl and the boba smoothie tasted good without being too sweet. My boyfriend liked his ramen, but not as much as I liked my salmon bowl. Restaurant is on the small side. I appreciate that this is a well priced and convenient place to get a healthy meal out.“

“muy buena atención al cliente y la comida exquisita“

“I love poke, and I am convinced this is the best in SE Aurora. I I’ve tried so many others in the area, and I keep coming back to Wanna Poke. High quality ingredients and friendly/quick service. I’ve been a customer for years now. I highly recommend checking them out!“

“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 was in the parking lot and starving! Didn’t want ramen since it was so hot, so I went with a curry chicken bowl instead. It really hit the spot! The bowl had fried chicken, curry, and pickled radish—totally unexpected but awesome. The server was great, and since the place only had about three tables inside, I managed to beat the lunch rush. The ambiance was fantastic—small and intimate, kind of like being in Japan!“

“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.“

“This is a wonderful restaurant. It's Asian and sushi and sashimi. The fish is truly fresh. There is a miso black cod I have everytime I go. It's very flavorful and delicious. The sashimi salmon is high quality and very fresh. The menu has great variety.
The service is excellent.“

“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“

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

“I’ve been coming to this place for years now, and the quality has always been fantastic. It is a small business with usually just two people working so you may have to wait a bit but I promise it’s worth it. Absolutely recommend their food and fair prices.“

“Only gave 4 stars since I don’t like poke and can’t make a judgement, but the ramen is great! Really tasty gyoza as well and very good tea. It’s a lot more lowkey than some other ramen spots in Aurora/denver, very casual which I love.“

“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!“

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

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

“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.“

“We had a lovely meal here on a Friday evening. My Mom was in town and lives in a rural area that lacks good Japanese so this was a real treat for her. The food was 5/5. Impeccable & expertly prepared with thought and passion which translated directly into the quality of the food and each bite was truly special or of exceptional quality, the atmosphere is a neat and aesthetically pleasing marriage of Japanese tea house and a trendy club in Barcelona. Unfortunately our server was incredibly quiet. No one at the table could hear or understand her, We asked her to speak up and repeat things multiple times but she only seemed to grow more quiet until we started having a debate at the table about if she was playing a joke on us or if it was intentional. Luckily the rest of the staff were buzzing around us like busy bees and seemed really well informed and were able to give us detailed descriptions of what we had been served, since we couldn't hear our server and the rest of the staff was kind enough to speak in audible tones.“

“Excellent! Best Sushi In Denver Metro!“

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

“This must be one of my favorite sushi restaurants in Denver. The service is great, the food consistently fantastic, and the prices are not bad at all for sushi. 10/10 recommend, this is my gf’s and I’s favorite spot even tho we live much closer to other places on S. Broadway. Taki is worth the detour!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“We are OBSESSED with this ramen shop. The whole place feels like stepping straight into an anime episode with Pokémon everywhere, anime playing on the big TVs, and even a robot that rolls up to deliver your food.

The vibe is so fun and unique, and the food is out of this world. Every single thing we have tried like ramen, curry, tempura, and those dreamy smoothie drinks has been amazing. My daughter is super picky and usually complains about everything, but she loves Mikaku Ramen so much that we make a stop here every month when we fly to Aurora from Taos, NM.

If you are anywhere near Aurora, trust me, this place is worth it. Go for the vibe, stay for the ramen. Highly highly recommend.“

“We have been dining here since they opened and have not been disappointed. The food is fresh and tasty and the service is friendly.“

“I'll be back! most definitely 👍“

“The Best here in Denver away from the ocean“

“This review is mainly about the tonkotsu ramen. It’s absolutely sub-par and unacceptable. They charged me a $1.50 to add half an egg that wasn’t even soft boiled (it was hard boiled). The broth was flavorless and not thick or creamy enough. It only comes with some bok choy and pickled ginger with 3 measly thin pieces of chashu pork. It should be a $10 bowl of ramen MAX. I paid almost $20. Love this places sushi but there’s way too many better ramen places in the area. It would cost them almost nothing to upgrade their ramen considering it uses the simplest and most available ingredients which just shows a conplete lack of care. However their sushi is great and would recommend it over many sushi places in the area.“

“In Co for vacation and tried this place . My son, husband and I all loved the food and service. 10 out of 10 ! We had ribeye steak, shrimp and chicken . Fried rice and noodles . Everything was great and seasoned well . Loved that the shrimp weren’t overcooked and they did our steak med just as we asked.“

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

“Ordered a handful of different rolls for dinner. Fish tasted pretty fresh, rolls were a good size.

We personally didn’t like the Hawaiian roll— the flavors were kind of overwhelming & the pieces of fish felt too large for a single bite. It was probably just personal preference as there was nothing wrong with the roll!“

“Excellent Sushi with every bite!“

“Really enjoyed this place! Haven't found a bento place anywhere else in Denver thus far. Pricing was reasonable for the amount of food in the bento, holy moly. Tofu teriyaki was delicious and came with tasty salad, a spring roll, and some kind of delicious tofu skin with rice and avocado. Plus edamame. I would come back again. Food came out quickly.“

“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.“

“Absolutely love this place! Has been great everytime.“
