We were in Telluride for the first time, and we looked at all of the restaurants in town. Kazahana caught our eye, as we love all sorts of Asian food. This place did not disappoint. The service was great (thanks Kyle!), the food was amazing. The drinks were a little pricey for what you get. Very narrow glass, short, and $18 for each cocktail. It was tasty, but was literally maybe 4 oz of fluid. Three sips and it was gone. That was the only disappointment of the night. We had the Edamame and the Gyoza, which were amazing. For our main course, we wanted to go light so we both had the Ramen, I had the Miso and my wife had the vegan. Large portions, and very tasty!!! The restaurant is very nice. Modern and upbeat.

Love the additions to the menu. Spring rolls and rice bowl was superb. The sushi was as usual perfect. The sushi chef Tony and Rudy our server were fantastic
Julie
Delicious and interesting Japanese food. We especially enjoyed shrimp dumplings, black cod, ramen....
Dennis
Our new go-to when we come to Telluride. Great sushi menu and uber creative cocktails. Loved the attention and service on a very busy Friday night.
Maureen

What a beautiful Sushi restaurant!
Our friends took us for our anniversary and it was as special as they told us it would be. It’s one of their favorites in Telluride, and I can see why.
I was craving Sushi, we had been eating a lot of steak and heavier meals, so our friends took us here. So glad they did!
We let the chefs order for us, telling them what we liked and every single roll, sushi, sashimi were outstanding. The saki cocktails were delicious, the service was friendly, and perfectly engaging. I went back the next night so I could experience the freshest fish I’ve ever had in Colorado. Highly, highly recommend. One of my favorites in Telluride!

Service was extremely slow and inconsistent. Drinks took a long time to get after ordering but then the first 3 courses arrived fast after that. However, the other courses were very slow and the final course took over 30 minutes to arrive. Asked for water refill that I never got. Was sat at table near the front door so people were often standing by our table and watching us eat. I have had better experiences at this restaurant but this was not up to their normal level of service/experience.

Fresh ingredients with expert perpetration. All made by a master chef. Outstanding service by hostess in combination with chef. Both were personable, informative and knowledgeable about each course as well as libation choices. Highly recommend the Omakase Tasting!

Loved our omakase experience at Kazahana! Aubrey was an amazing host(ess) and every bite and pairing was perfect. We highly recommend!
Veronica
Great service. We were happy to leave 25% tip. I would have left more if I was a wealthy person. The food was phenomenal, the vibe was cool, the server was super friendly and was able to spend a little more time with us to answer our questions and entertain out curiosity regarding food questions and other items. Off season in the mountains. The locals were out. A lot of the staff engaged with us, not just our server. We felt welcomed and were honored to eat here. Highly recommended everything especially the dessert box.
We sat at the sushi bar and had a great experience. The sushi was amazing, and was prepared quickly despite there being a couple of large groups ordering lots of sushi. If you're unfamiliar with the menu don't worry you won't be disappointed, everything they prepare is very good.

It was okay. Overpriced like a ski town but it was good. Just excepted more . Maybe that’s my fault . I had high expectations. Service was very good just again not what we expected. Just okay.

I know it's Telluride and prices are higher here but paying $28 dollars for a shrimp tempura roll I could have got at literally any other restaurant in the country for 64% less, I expected one of the most delectable roll I've ever had in my life....aaaaand it was just a normal shrimp tempura roll.

Good service and good environment, but unfortunately the omakase quality was not worth $200+. I have had better omakase in other high cost of living geographies for half the price. While some pieces, such as their amberjack were quite well designed, overall I felt that this sushi restaurant did not maximize the potential of much of its high quality raw ingredients. 1) many of their nigiris was very heavy on sweet sauces, an odd choice that detracts. 2) the unagi's flavor in particular completely overshadowed the the caviar and the uni
Probably a fine restaurant for sushi or ala carte ordering, but I would caveat empor splurging on omakase here vs say somewhere with a higher density of competition for high end sushi restaurants.
Also they added a 4% surcharge when we got the receipt that was not mentioned when we started the meal. This is a type of hidden "junk fee" that removes trust between customers and business owners. While still legal for now, the much more consumer friendly strategy is to raise menu prices.
