My favorite in Denver...service is awesome, and the food is just as great. Sashimi all the way. A must try!
I recently visited for their weekend happy hour (until 5pm on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays) and was just as impressed with their services, quality, and offerings! I love their hand rolls and wanted to sample even more. I look forward to making this my go-to sushi spot. It was not too busy on a Saturday at 4:30pm but by the time we left, it was starting to fill up. Their service was extremely quick (I think our first sushi bites were served in less than 5 minutes from ordering)! They are super nice and I always have a lovely experience here.
This has quickly become one of my go to spots for sushi I'm Denver. It's a quaint sushi spot and the sushi chefs at the bar look like they're all Japanese, so you know it's going to be good. The sushi is super fresh, and they dress their nigiri to give it extra flavor and pop. Their rolls are also really well made with great sushi rice and interesting sauces and topping combinations. Though a little pricey, it's definitely worth it. Some highlights for me on the menu are their salmon belly nigiri, miso eggplant, and the red dragon roll.
Been wanting to try this place for a while, and it did not disappoint! I'm a sushi snob, and this place is up there on my list now. Everything was incredible, we ended up ordering a second spicy crab salad because we couldn't get enough of it. Age Tofu was delicious. The Sake Crudo was to die for, the Toro sashimi- mouth watering. The Tejon roll was the winner. This will be a new regular spot for sure!! A hidden gem to say the least.
We made a last-minute reservation at Nozomi on Valentine's Day. I was very pleased and appreciative that they were able to accommodate us. It was our first time here and I liked the layout and mood of the place. I also liked the way they had the restaurant decked out with flowers and balloons for the holiday. When we arrived, it was still quiet, although the servers seemed a little unprepared, because they seated us at a messy table, with scissors, tape, and other stuff strewn around the table top. This aside, the service was quite good and so was the food. We enjoyed some vegan sushi from their lunchtime Happy Hour menu. (Please offer some more vegan options, like mushroom or grilled veggies!) My son really enjoyed their spicy salmon maki roll. I'd definitely like to come back again sometime soon for lunch or dinner and drinks.
We've been to Ototo, Sushi Den, and Temaki Den, and while this spot might not be as fancy as those, it's truly a hidden gem. It has officially joined our top sushi list! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the sushi was absolutely phenomenal. We didn't take too many photos because we were so busy scarfing it down--it was just that delicious. If you're looking for amazing sushi in a cozy, unpretentious setting, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
My husband and I went to Nozomi on a Sunday night. It was a lovely evening with delicious food and fast service! Street parking was easy, and we were greeted when we walked in. We had a reservation, but it wasn't needed for a Sunday night. We were in a bit of a rush, but our server was on top of it and very kind! The ambiance was very nice with muted lighting. Tables are a little close together but nothing too bad. There were four sushi chefs working which helped us get our food quickly. We had the Crab Cheese Wontons, Salmon Roll, Philadelphia Roll, Rainbow Roll, and Sweet Potato Roll. All were great and very fresh! Prices weren't crazy. My only complaint is that the Diet Coke doesn't have free refills and comes in a plastic bottle. ;)
Two people recommended Nozomi to me. I was finally able to stop in for few pieces and rolls. I can't believe it took me so long to stop in. The nigiri was amazing especially the salmon belly. It was melt in your mouth soft. I highly recommend the crazy tuna roll, full of flavor. Prices are average but, the quality is some of the best I have had in Denver.
Really great spot with awesome service. We made a reservation for a friend's birthday and even with a few hiccups on our part they were super accommodating. I feel like most restaurants will be annoyed with you for last minute changes (and rightfully so), but our servers at Nozomi weren't at all. It was so refreshing. The appetizers, nigiri, and sashimi were all fantastic. I will say I was a bit disappointed in the specialty rolls as I felt they were a little heavy on rice and lacking a bit of flavor. But I'd definitely go back for the quality of fish and load up on apps and nigiri! -- also side note- they were super accommodating with a 1 year old!
