    Great service and very fresh tasting sushi options here! Came for a business lunch and had never been here. Was very pleasantly surprised! Started with edamame and wontons. Both were exactly what you'd expect. For main course, my coworker got lo Mein and said it was delicious! Other colleague and I split some rolls and I got some sashimi. The sashimi tasted incredible and so fresh! Surprising for a landlocked, strip mall joint! Our service was excellent. The server was very friendly and patient with us as decided on our orders. So glad my colleague introduced me to this spot near my house. I will be adding this to my regular rotation for sure!

    Solid 4 star and so far the best sushi I've found in Colorado! Better thsn Sushi Den. Ok, so why the 4 star not a 5 star? The reason is because I have Southern California standards. There's amazing sushi in So Cal, and down there this place could hold its own as a good spot but not as one of the top spots. But so far it's the top spot in Colorado and it's definitely good. I will continue to try and find better but also I may return because I've tried 10+ and this is ghe best out of those. The ambiance is nice for being in a little strip mall, nothing super upscale but nice and medium sized. The service was good, tge waiter was nice. The presentation of the food was really good. So far this is my only real foodie recommendation for sushi, but again by So Cal standards is a B rating- hence the 4 stars. Happy eating.

    Always good. I tried sea urchin for the first time! Eel is superb, sushi is fresh. In short it is hard to pass it by.

    Not a bad little sushi joint, but nothing to write home about. Service was prompt, but the ambiance was a little cold and plain. The salmon and the yellow tail were on point in terms of flavor, but the snapper (which is usually my favorite!) was tough and didn't taste as elegant as it should. They had quite a few speciality rolls, but many of them are sauced, which I try to avoid. I enjoyed it, but probably wouldn't order it again. Give the place a try if you live nearby.

    Our usual place was closed so I ordered pick up from here to try somewhere new. We ordered the Super White Sushi, shake, avocado eel, Yellowtail Scallion roll, and mussels. Pickup service was nice and quick. The ambiance of the place looked nice. Bright and clean. Food was ok but not my favorite. Fish wasn't as fresh as other locations in the area and all items were warm. Warm sushi is a pet peeve of mine.

    Good and fast service! Ordered: Kara-age: 2/5 - chicken tasted processed, was not authentic, felt like it was from a Costco freezer bag Orion Signature Roll: 5/5 - lots of fatty tuna inside so felt like good value Ninja Roll: 5/5 - soft shell crab was crispy Golden Roll: 5/5 - lots of salmon so yummy of course Def coming back for the yummy rolls!

    We were hungry haha

    This place was as delicious as my friends said it would be! :) We had quite a variety of sushi rolls and everything was delicious. Whatever white wine I had was good as well. And they pour bigger glasses than most places haha so that's a plus! Service was quick, friendly, and efficient. Parking is a easy and the inside isn't fancy but it's cute and nice enough for a date night. Will probably be back since my friends are big fans of this spot!

    I was looking for a place to grab some sushi with a friend before catching the holiday lights at Bandimere Speedway. After perusing Yelp, Orion seemed like a great choice, and honestly it proved to be perfect. The sushi menu is expansive! So many neat and creative rolls-- it took us awhile to choose. They also have some great sets so we did a mix to get both our maki and nigiri fix. At one point we realized one roll hadn't yet been delivered, and despite the fact that we had over ordered, we persisted. Truly delicious. The other thing I will say is that the service here was above and beyond. Friendly, professional and very attentive. I haven't experienced anything at that level in awhile. Also our server let us know they do a BOGO happy hour on sake too, which was appreciated. All in all a great experience. And while this place isn't in my usual neck of the woods, I'm definitely planning to check it out again when out this way. Seems like a perfect stop off after a foothills hike or trail run.

I recommend planning ahead with a reservation, as they can get busy during a dinner rush. We were visiting Colorado for a quick weekend trip and were floored by the food here. While the rolls all sounded great, we opted for an omakase experience. It is priced at market value, so I imagine this could vary over time, but they had three tiers for omakase, which I thought were all fairly priced for the amount of food included. We opted for the highest tier, which was $120 pp, and it was incredibly filling with high quality cuts of fish and a thoughtfully curated menu. The sushi chef who took care of us was incredibly kind, and it was clear he put a lot of care into the food he prepared. If you're on the fence, hop off and make that reservation and come hungry for the omakase experience!

There was also zero indication whether you seat yourself or wait to be seated, so customers are left awkwardly standing around wondering what's going on. To make things worse, the entrance feels bizarre and rundown, like you're sneaking into the back of a storage building instead of entering a restaurant. If you want real wasabi, go to a proper sushi restaurant. This felt more like a watered-down imitation than a real dining experience. 1/10

Sushi Uokura used to have the best fish to rice ratio amongst all the AYCE places in the Denver metropolitan area which is no longer the case. The menu has always been the smallest as well which wasn't too much of an issue until recently where it has shrunk even more (I believe they only offer 7-8 nigiri) and no unagi (fresh water eel). Another unfortunate change is that the service used to be really good but lately it's been bad with long wait times to be seated and to put in our orders, infrequent check-ins, and incorrect food coming out at times. It seems like it is more of a management issue than the servers themselves. I used to really like this small, family-feeling AYCE spot and I hope they return to their previous, better form.

The new style sashimi was described as coming with cilantro (which is how it usually comes) but there was no cilantro in sight and instead they were covered in copious amounts of jalapeños. The cuts were also pretty butchered, particularly given the cost. The rolls were palatable, but entirely too big for my mouth, which just makes eating a bit like choking. I did receive a small complimentary dessert, which was decently tasty. The server was very friendly, but he sort of forgot about me in the end.
