31 Best Japanese Restaurants near Wheat Ridge

“Good quick service Japanese. Poke Bowls are better than I expected. Great option considering it's a chain.

Kid-friendliness: Easy to find a good kid option. My daughter loved the salmon poke bowl. My son is pickier, but likes the kids rice/noodles with chicken nuggets and teriyaki sauce.“

“This is a fast food chain that doesn't exist where I'm from (Oklahoma), but I thought it was good. The chicken had a slightly tough texture, but the flavors were good, and the portions were adequate. Nobody in my family got sick, despite all their allergies, so I call it a win!

Kid-friendliness: There was a family of kids there. The food is kid friendly because it's not spicy or vegetable heavy, unless you order it that way.

Wheelchair accessibility: The doors were easy to access, with wide sidewalks, and I believe the door I entered had one of those buttons to hold it open.“

“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“

“Great service and great food!“

“First experience here and from being greeted at the door, to our very attentive server Stephen, and finally to our award winning Chef Duy, it was hands down one of the best sushi experiences I've ever had. Chef Duy is amazingly creative, social throughout, knowledgeable, and cooooooks. Dude is a culinary BEAST. Can't wait to go back. Do the omakase experience.“

“Best sushi place in Denver!! Get the sake toro, blue fin toro, and Den Roll and then come back and like this review!

The servers are consistently great. The atmosphere is nice and new. Just an all around awesome spot in a low key area of Denver that doesn’t have the acclaim of Sushi Den and other popular spots but will soon.“

“Quinn and Kristina knock it out of the park every time. This spot is the cleanest and everything is always so fresh tasting. I love coming here for lunch. I found them during restaurant week and they have quickly become a favorite amongst me and my friends!“

“Great food great service“

“there is only 1 way to describe this place which would be absolutely amazing. the flavor was on point!!! the restaurant was clean staff was friendly. I can't wait to go back an try more!“

“Me and babe visited Colorado and I’ve been wanting a good ramen place to eat at and this place is #1 in my book the food was so delicious I tried the Tori ramen and we also shared the gyoza and veggie rolls and they were fried to perfection the sauce that came with them was also delicious 10/10 will come again soon!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Excellent! Best Sushi In Denver Metro!“

“The food was an array of quality. The beef tartare was insanely delicious. I wish I had more

The nigiri offered felt over priced. I'm not sure if some of the offerings were what brought it up, but some cuts tasted amazing, some just felt like run of the mill. This wouldn't have been an issue if the "market price" wasn't so high. I'd love to have seen a breakdown. The nigiri pricing seemed way higher from other, less bougie feeling, sushi spots around and I didn't feel like each piece reflected that with the flavor.
Also $8 for Asahi beer. Had to have been something about the price of brick and mortar lol. $8 is a tall boy elsewhere

As others have stated. Service is extremely slow. My partner and I waited probably 20 minutes after we got drinks for someone to come by. They tried taking our order as soon as we were seated and then didn't come by again until 20 minutes later.

The atmosphere... It was nice. It was moody and modern and I felt like it was a good date environment and place to dress up. There's two different sides. The front of the restaurant is bright and casual and the back, where I sat, was modern and had some clubby beats and music playing.

Not a place I'd go often but the tartare has me not eliminating it from a revisit“

“Domo has the best ramen in Denver, and a beautiful outdoor garden for summer dining.“

“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.“

“Loved this!! My first time in, our waiter was so helpful and guided along a delicious adventure. We started with the cucumber salad SO GOOD. Then we got the spicy gyoza, loved the sauce!!! For dinner we split a bowl of ramen and some sushi. Everything was so delicious and only $42. I will be coming back“

“Umm what a true gem! The food is so good you love every bite! It reminds me of a mom and pop sushi bar in l.a. … bangin!! Fresh, crisp, and delicious in every bite! And extremely affordable for the quality! Just had lunch with some friends and hands down so fresh and so clean!!!“

“This place is amazing. I've heard about it for years and finally got to go. It's really clean. Delicious food. Friendly service. We didn't have to wait long for our food and sat down right away. Can't wait to go again“

“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!“

“TOKIO is an absolute gem in Denver! I came for the ramen but also loved their sushi! (Monday is $2 salmon night). The ramen menu is stacked with delicious options, my pick was the spicy shoyu, rich and comforting with perfect chashu pork. I also tried the Kyoto Matcha IPA, which was super unique and surprisingly refreshing. Friendly staff, fun atmosphere, and great specials like sea eel and sea urchin. Definitely worth a visit if you're into ramen or want to test your competitive eating skills! (Check out their 5.5lb challenge!)“

“The Best here in Denver away from the ocean“

“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!“

“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!“

“Sukiya Ramen is a consistent 5/5.

My usual order is a build your own ramen.
Tonkatsu broth, thin noodles, chicken, crispy onions, crispy garlic, green onions, bean sprouts, and an order of extra noodles.

Consistently delicious every time!“

“Obento is consistently one of the best places for lunch in Denver. Their bento boxes are always piping hot and have a nice mix of an entree, salad, and usually two sides that can vary. It’s always flavorful, fast and affordable, making it one of my go-to lunch spots. I also love their boba teas—they’re a nice size for the price. Highly recommend!“

“Fresh. Yummy. GF/DF options make my stomach happy. Thank you.“

“Awesome Lunch Beef Teriyaki Bento Box. cant wait to come back and try some other dishes. 5 🌟“

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

“Very good nigiri and service has been excellent my last two visits. Fish quality is very good especially for all you can eat. 5-STARS“
