This was a surprise find - a random night out with friends. The service was fantastic with a great server who was attentive, friendly and not over-bearing. The fish was very good and the portions generous in a cute and fun room. I will be back! read more

Kenji Sushi was an amazing find for lunch. Although we didn't try any do the lunch specials, it was a great value. I ordered the spring rolls for an appetizer and they were hot and tasty, and came with a delicious sweet chili dipping sauce that I really enjoyed. The sushi was obviously the best part of the meal. The Kenji Vegetable roll surpassed my expectations for a veggie option. The mango paired extremely well and rounded out the flavor very nicely. It was almost my favorite roll but the Sex on the Beach roll was the star of the show! It was my first time having a roll with lemon on top but it was the perfect flavor pairing, OMG!! I couldn't stop thinking about how good that roll was for the rest of the day, I highly recommend it! Service was fast because I visited after a morning snow which I enjoyed. The dining area was small but it didn't bother me since I was the only party dining in at the time. Street parking was easy to find during this time of day. Overall 9/10. read more

Kenji Sushi - Variety of rolls - Sushi Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Ordered some sushi to treat myself for my birthday, the fish was rubbery, chewy, and tasted bad. Super disappointed! I reached out to the business to let them know, but never heard back! I've order from them (and visited the restaurant) many times since moving to the neighbo and it's never been this bad ... will be hard to order from here again anytime soon considering how bad this order was! :( read more

My first time here they had a grand opening with new owners and they did not disappoint from the attentive service to the top tier sushi along with everything else on the menu. I am obsessed 10/10 would recommend hands down 5 star rating read more

Kenji Sushi - Hawaiian roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Parking around the place is free and you can park in the back. I must say the miso is amazing. Very rich in taste. Got a boat of sushi. Red snapper, yellow tail, salmon, shrimp, and a dragon roll. While the sushi is good the service not so much. The lady forgot to put in for the noodles, never came to check on our table. Never refilled my tea, I had to track her down. Spilled all over the table and did a crappy wipe up of it. Disappointed in the service. No apologies for not ordering the noodles or spilling on the table I like the inside clean, fish tank in the corner. Great music to eat to read more

my udon noodle soup was delightful. the broth was very tasty. the sushi rolls also slap, and they're priced fairly. my favorite was the spicy maki roll. i ate here around 1:30 pm and it wasn't busy at all, which is always suspicious, but it was early in the afternoon. don't be fooled by this if you find yourself in the same situation, because the food and service here are wonderful. the interior is a little dark... i remember a lot of black, so probably a good dinner spot! read more

Ok, let's start with what they're really good at: The staff is wonderful. Super attentive, very friendly and welcoming, and good at their craft. The dining experience aesthetically is a good one - the restaurant is clean and well kept, the ambiance is pleasant without being 'fancy'. The pricing, particularly for the lunch specials and Bento box's is great, relative to the current state of pricing elsewhere. The food is pretty good, but I have had better (far more expensive). So my verdict is that for the price, Kenji is worth a visit! read more

Love this little neighborhood place. New management is great. Food is really good and fresh. There is usually an open table to be had and service has improved immensely. read more

Honestly, avoid the sushi here. I ate the chirashi combo and felt sick shortly afterward, and then I found a short black hair in the miso soup. That's a basic cleanliness issue and totally unacceptable. One bad experience was enough--I won't be back, and I don't recommend wasting your money here. read more

Ordered delivered via DoorDash. Teriyaki Beef was okay... came with a very small portion of rice, and a very basic house salad. Sushi quality was good, but I expected the rolls to be a little bigger for how much they cost. Probably wouldn't order again via DoorDash, but might try dining in. read more

Met a friend here for lunch during the week. The parking is a bit of a pain as it's street parking but, seemed like there are spaces open along the neighboring streets. They weren't too busy when we arrived and were seated immediately. The menu had lots of options however, I went with a salmon + avocado + jalapeño roll. The flavor was ok. My friend was a big fan because, of all the veggie rolls that have to offer-- meh. read more

My girlfriend and I had an incredible meal here today. We walked in for lunch after I had wrist surgery next door at Kaiser. The place is clean, well decorated and very warm and fuzzy feeling. We were welcomed immediately and sat within 20 seconds of walking through the door. We ordered drinks and those drinks showed up within a minute. The waiter was extremely pleasant and helpful. We ordered teriyaki salmon and a teriyaki beef bento box. The food came out within ten. Invites and it was wonderful. Warm, fresh, well and a beautiful presentation. For dessert was ordered a fried banana and strawberry ice cream. It was incredible though to think the banana was beaded a tad more than I'd like. All in all this was a great experience and we will gladly go back. It's a romantic little place and I suggest it for "date night" with your special someone. read more

great food great service!Thank you Nicolas for being timely communicative and following delivery instructions:)

Never stopped here before. Took my 2 grand babies for a sushi boat. These guys sure are growing, 12 and 17, can not believe it. Boy was this excellent food. They can sure eat. Not being from Denver I was apprehensive concerning the prices but I was happily surprised. They ate about 10 different sushi rolls, ate that pictured boat clean. Would I try them again? Yes I would their service was top notch. So pleasantly surprised that I might stop there again. Located near city park and the zoo. read more

good food but really rude servers, server asked if I was pregnant before serving me my food. I am not... and then tried to make up for asking such a rude and personal question by coming by our table every 5 minutes. Good food, prices are fine. I've had better service and better food for cheaper read more

Gotten sushi here a few times, always carry out, never dine in but their all you can eat option looks good. We've tried rolls with raw fish as well as others with cooked shrimp or crab, the miso soup, and I believe a calamari dish. All were delicious. read more

DO NOT COME HERE!!! The miso soup kept separating somehow, we complained about our drinks being flat. The server did not listen to any of our complaints. The rolls were over priced and small. The place was empty and I can now tell why... the server made many many comments on how we were eating. This was awful experience!! We tried to tell them about anything we had issues with and absolute ignorance. They blamed the food being dirty on the company they order food from?!? read more

Delicious and quick. The Harissa avocado bowl is a favorite. The pita was tasty too.

The sushi here is AMAZING!! I ordered through Grubhub and was pleased to see Kenji sent ample soy sauce (both regular and low sodium), lots and lots of ginger, and plenty of wasabi! The Ninja Roll didn't even fit in my mouth and the shrimp tempura roll was just oh so yummy! It definitely hit the spot!! read more

Kenji Sushi - Ninja Roll and Shrimp Tempura Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Kenji Sushi is the reason I was able to eat well during a recent hospital stay in the City Park area. While I was in labor, I needed a light lunch with lean protein and simple carbohydrates to keep my energy levels up. Luckily, Kenji had exactly what I needed. I ended up ordering from here two times during my stay -- both times were through the Yelp app and the experience was quick and seamless. Even though my husband went over to pick up my orders as soon as I placed them, they were ready for him by the time he showed up. I stuck with the California roll variations on the menu since I wasn't allowed to eat raw fish, and they were all delicious. My favorite is the Kobe Beef roll, though I would also recommend the classic California roll and Crunchy roll. Kenji Sushi is a solid option if you happen to be in the neighborhood! read more

A solid option for delivery! I ordered some food from Kenji on a whim, since I was craving some udon. The food arrived on time and I'm glad I ordered from here. Their nabeyaki udon is on less pricey than other restaurants at $11, and was definitely worth it. I liked that there was a good amount of chicken, but was not as much of a fan of the abundance of sliced carrots and onions in it. I also ordered a california roll which didn't fall apart and tasted fresh. My only complaint has to do with the delivery where the udon noodles were packaged together with the soup and all the toppings which wouldn't have worked out too well if I lived further away from the restaurant. I think if I do order from here again, I'll stick to their sushi. read more

Kenji Sushi - Nabeyaki Udon ($11) as take out. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Went to Kenji for the first time for lunch and ordered the teriyaki salmon bento box. The size of the piece of salmon I received was laughable for $12. It's literally the size of my fork!!! The four pieces of California roll that comes in the bento was bigger than the salmon. To add insult to injury they laughed with each other about the portion size, gave me a million excuses as to why the meat portions are so small (blaming increasing food costs. So the obvious solution is to reduce the portions SIGNIFICANTLY and charge the same price?!), and giving a $2 discount. Needless to say Kenji Sushi won't get another dime from me. read more

My first time ordering from Kenji last week was a great experience, the three rolls plus wontons were great. I just received my second order from them, five rolls plus chicken fried rice and Yaki udon noodles. This time around I'm not so impressed. The white rice around every roll fell off and the rolls simply fell apart. For the two trays of sushi we only received one small portion of wasabi vs a portion on each tray. It also was hard to tell if there was fish inside our rolls. Also, the rolls labeled spicy on the menu had zero spice. So maybe it was an off night for the sushi chef? Lastly, there was either a piece of bone or some very hard/plasticy vegetable which I bit into that was found in our fried rice. read more

It's good, cheap and fast. I think it's good when you're craving sushi that won't break the bank. The location is cute too.

All the sushi was so yummy! I couldn't tell you my favorite because we both enjoyed them all's the meat was really fresh and the service was suburb! We also got some Nagari, the sparkling sake (sorry if i misspelt that!) but 10/10 recommend. I love that is it walking distance to my place! read more

Kenji Sushi - Sushi boat with mixed rolls - Sushi Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

First of all this was my first ever sushi boat experience and I just loved it! Coming from Hawaii, I was really hesitant to try Colorado sushi, but my friend found Kenji Sushi near my place and we were hungry so I agreed. The waitress recommended the perfect sake for us and the food came out pretty quickly. The sex on the beach roll was BETTER than sex on the beach. I'm a foodie and I just loved the tang of lemon juice on the roll, it was the perfect combination. I almost didn't want to tell y'all so this place doesn't blow up because it's my spot now ;) The staff was all super friendly! Also decent prices. Only thing a crackhead walked right on in and asked us where the nearest liquor store was but that has nothing to do with the restaurant and we just laughed it off read more

I ordered a salmon roll & sweet potato roll through Uber Eats and unfortunately, the Uber driver forgot the salmon roll. This wasn't the restaurant's fault, but I called to see if my other roll was still there. They were very accommodating and quickly dropped off the missing roll themselves for no extra charge. I usually don't use Uber Eats, but was in a pinch with time and had an appointment I needed to make. I really appreciated them dropping off the roll. It was delicious and helped me get through the rest of the afternoon. Will order again! (This time directly from them) read more

I cried tears of joy upon eating this sushi. Seriously! Laid up in bed the day following throat surgery, I came across this sushi joint online. Great reviews? Great photos? Done deal! Ordering through DoorDash, I made a special request for smaller pieces and a little less rice--Many restaurants don't allow for special requests nowadays, I was beyond grateful when they accepted. Now back to the reasoning for the waterworks: The photo attached to this review is the deliciousness that I received and despite my emotional and physically fragile state, I had to call and thank someone at Kenji. The sweet angel receiving online orders personally ensured that the instructions were followed. During that brief phone call, I could tell that some truly awesome people work here. The cherry on top of their excellent customer service had to be their sushi: a lovely combination of fresh fish and quality ingredients rolled to perfection. I've been to a ton of sushi places in Denver, this is one of my faves. read more

Kenji Sushi - Caterpillar Rolls + salmon roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Everything was very small. Sushi, sashimi, rolls and order of calamari were very small. Felt like I received about $50-60 worth of food for $100. 10 piece of sushi in their dinner included 4 shrimp, 3 imitation crab and 3 mackerel. No tuna, salmon. This was a very disappointing dinner for the wife and I. read more

This is not one of the better sushi places in Denver. Here's why- First, the place is freezing cold! The wait staff is wearing puffy coats and hats. Turn on the damn heat. Hard to enjoy a meal when you have to wear a winter coat while dining. Second, the sushi rolls are tiny and they are really skimpy with the fish. Ordered yellowtail jalapeño and the jalapeño slices were bigger than the pieces of sushi. The sushi rolls are about the smallest I've ever seen. Pics attached. Third, ordered a large beer and saki. The waiter delivered them each with 1 glass. Said that's all he had? There was like 5 people in the restaurant. I guess it's BYOG? Finally, it's Covid... they sat a couple literally back-to-back with me. No social distance and definitely made me uncomfortable. There was plenty of space to seat these people far away from us. On a positive- the sushi was tasty. Small and skimpy, but tasty. Look elsewhere. Lots of great sushi on Denver and surrounding areas. read more

COVID-19 delivery order, definitely not the full-court press regular customer experience. If this were "regular" times, I probably would be a lot more harsh, but let's give restaurants a break right now. They're trying their best under pretty unusual circumstances. Up until now, my GrubHub experiences have been fabulous. Whether it's last-minute dinner delivery, ordering meals for group meetings, or sending something special to someone else in a different US city, they've done a great job. Until last Friday. I ordered Kenji before 7 pm and it didn't arrive to my house until just before 9:30 pm. I called twice to inquire about my order and both times the gal who answered the phone said the food was on its way. Either she wasn't telling the truth or the delivery driver made a significant detour. Kenji is about a 12-minute drive door-to-door from their restaurant to my house... so, you do the math. The good news: Kenji's sushi rolls held up pretty well overnight. We ended up having a $60 lunch on Saturday with everything that was ordered Friday evening: Edamame, spicy lobster tempura roll, red rainbow roll, yellowtail roll, crunchy roll. At the end of the day, I got over it and realized there's way worse problems in the world than getting your sushi delivery later than expected. I probably won't order from GrubHub or Kenji anytime soon but I'm not going to hold a grudge with them, either. read more

My boyfriend & I have never been the biggest sushi people. But we've been branching out & trying new things. From poke to Indian food, and now, legit sushi. We picked up a Groupon for Kenji Sushi - $18.50 for $30 worth of food/drinks - & tried the most sushi things we could try! I got the Denver Roll (avocado, cucumber , cream cheese topped with tuna, salmon, yellowtail & flying fish roe), while my boyfriend got the Sushi Deluxe (an assortment of 10 Sushi + California Rolls). It was all very good buuuuut it was a lot of raw fish...as it should be, right? Although we may not be the biggest sushi people, I still feel like this was quality sushi + we got to sit on the nice patio & the service was very good as well! Overall, good experience, even if sushi isn't the food for us! We'll likely be back for Kenji's happy hour though, so we can be brave and try more things at a lower price! read more

Ordered Kenji delivery and it was good-not great hence the average review. The rolls were small and the spicy rolls had a very intense orange color which looked a tad artificial. For cheap take-out this will meet your needs, but won't make you go "wow this is super quality sushi". read more

Very fresh and affordable. Great happy hour after 2:00 p.m. And all day on the weekends. I ordered the Alaskan role and the spicy scallop roll. They were $7 $5 respectively during lunch. I highly recommend. Also, they have Wi-Fi that actually works. read more
