Sushi Bars in Telluride

“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.“

“The service was excellent, but the food…hot and cold (NO pun intended). My black bean soup was excellent, and so was the salmon. In fact, the salmon was one of the best I’ve ever had. The Crispy Shrimp & Calamari, shared at the table, wasn’t really crispy at all. It had a tiny bit of sauce drizzled over it, but most pieces didn’t get touched by it, so you had to either ask for a side of dipping sauce (which we didn’t) or eat it plain. Also, there were hardly any shrimp in with the calamari. My Caesar Salad was awful. Before ordering, I confirmed that the dressing was made in house, but it was a tasteless, bland, cream colored, nondescript thin liquid, without a hint of garlic. I didn’t complain, but I tried my only other option of adding plenty of salt and pepper, which just didn’t help. We didn’t order dessert, so I can’t comment on that element. Overall, I think Cosmo’s is a very fine restaurant, but maybe we just didn’t choose well. I would certainly go back, but I would never order the Caesar again, and I would carefully discuss the calamari with the server before committing to it.“
