    Lovin that Sushi
    Jason P.

    Time too talk about Uber Eats...was a little afraid to order this because I live in California and my son is living in Colorado, but it was his birthday today and I wanted to do something special. I found this place on Yelp, and specifically ordered from here because of all the mostly good reviews this Sushi restaurant has on the site. My son was not able to come in, so I sent it over Uber Eats and I must say how excited he was to receive such an amazing meal. I ordered 4 sushi rolls and some other items and he got them exactly when the time slot came up. I ordered on the site the day before so I could secure the right time slot and I must say it worked without a hitch. The items were super well packaged and he absolutely loved the food! He said everything came exactly as per the menu. He really enjoyed everything he received! Thank you SO much for helping make my sons first birthday away from home special. I'll order for him again for sure!!

    Great Sushi at excellent prices. We had 3 Hawaiian roll, French and Crunchy California Rolls and every single bite was to die for!!! First time here and will not be our last.

    Let me start by saying that I love sushi... and that I am posting this much later than originally anticipated... I really enjoy trying new and different things whenever I have the opportunity and Sawara definitely delivered! My sister and I were getting pretty hungry and had a long-standing rain check to get sushi together. With COVID, there weren't really any places we had the option of visiting in person, so we decided to order in. My sister found Sawara after a quick search and we were able to see the menu on their website. The search results didn't list delivery as an option, so we gave them a call and a nice man on the other end of the line confirmed that they were able to provide delivery service through a third party (DoorDash). In today's world, delivery has become the popular option among those that would rather not venture out to get a bite to eat. While I totally understand that, I'm not really a huge fan of these large third party delivery companies; for many, the fees tend to pile up but the restaurants and delivery staff don't end up seeing very much of the profit... but I digress. We placed an order for a handful of rolls - about a 50/50 split between vegetarian choices and non-vegetarian choices (mine were the non-veg... and pretty spicy to boot!!). I forget exactly what each roll was called, unfortunately, but we received our order within the quoted window with a jolly text message from the delivery person when it arrived. He double checked our order to ensure it included utensils, soy sauce, extra sauces my sister had asked for, and napkins which I appreciated so sooooo much as there have been many times details are overlooked in cases where there are some pretty detailed requests. Both my sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our rolls and frequently furrowed our brows at one another to convey an "I didn't think this would be so yummy" sort of look lol. The fish - in my case - was so unbelievably fresh and tasty and each flavor written in the menu description was well accounted for after each bite. My sister loved her veggie rolls as well... we mutually agreed that this would be a meal we would be glad to put ourselves into a food coma for! LOL. Thank you, Sawara, for your excels food, excellent service, and reasonable prices. Whenever I find myself in your neck of the woods I will be SURE to stop in.

    Crazy Love roll (I think)

    The sushi is amazing and the prices aren't bad either! Most of the choices are the same or less than king soopers "snow fox." I always order miso soup as well and it's one of my favorite places to get it!

    Decent sushi. A step up from grocery store sushi. Enjoyed all three of our rolls. Dragon gone wild was both our favorite. The booths are quite uncomfortable, and the paper products seem wasteful. Feels like a cafeteria, not a restaurant. Will try another place in CR before coming back.

    This place deserves accolades! Great fresh & high quality sushi, huge variety of rolls, excellent pricing (why would anyone buy sushi at WholeFoods, for example, when it's no where near this level, not as fresh and more $$). This "fast-food" version of sushi rivals anything else in town, even the traditional style sushi restaurants. I've had sushi all over the country and find this little Castle Rock sushi restaurant to be a true gem. Added bonus: the owners are super friendly and we've never once had a to-go order with an error (out probably 50 orders). Perfect, beautiful sushi every time. They are very serious about their business and the quality of what they offer...very healthy rolls and not the gross deep fried BS that so many places have; IMO that is not real sushi-it's adulterated and unhealthy. Sawara's is authentic, legit sushi. Some may not be able to appreciate that but if you are a true connoisseur, you will appreciate the consistency and purity. Sauces are creative and provide uniqueness (ex, the Red Sea roll with "Habanero Lemon Sauce" and the Sunshine roll with "lemon ginger sauce." and there are great options for spice-lovers (Fireblast roll for ex--we like with spicy mayo)...Other favs are New Sawara, Dragon Gone Wild, Sweet Dreams, Crazy Love & Pina Colorado for something a little sweet. Sashimi and nigiri is also excellent--generous cuts and always very fresh. They even have "no rice" rolls (we love the Evergreen) and gluten free and Vegetarian options. I hope they never leave Castle Rock because we're hooked for life!!

    Sushi was good, but a bit overpriced. The standard rolls were fair, but I would not pay $13 again for a small sushi burrito.

Great quality and taste. Rolls tend to be on the sweeter side and very large portions. Escolar was good, as the best it can be but Id highly recommend going off the daily special sheet that's offered with the sushi order form. It was a great foray into less common and delicious alternatives. I wish my server was a bit more informed on the tastes and types, but we managed just fine. Tai, Chinese, and other: Full standard menu of common dishes. Great for anyone who doesn't want sushi, and it stands on its own Chinese and Tai menu, if you are in the mood for those dishes. Luckily I didn't see tai green curry on the menu, or I would have had to order take out as well. Red curry is offered, and Pad Thai is next on the list. It packs up, so either call ahead or be willing to wait a bit during rush hours. They observed my reservation with us arriving a little early, they still sat us on time, but ahead of those waiting in the seating area. Standard noise during busy hours, which is the norm these days, but we could still hold a conversation even at peak. Family seems to be the name of the game with little ones trying new things. A few dates but not over formal.

The service is always fast and friendly and the food is filling in a lively atmosphere. For the win: Toro nigiri, gyoza, and the Panang Duck Curry.

The chefs know how to plate their food because everything came out looking delicious and beautiful. My brother was nice enough to let me grab a couple of pictures of his food before he started eating, which was greatly appreciated. My shiitake buns were delicious, and I wanted more when I finished the two I ordered. It was a nice, low-spice taste with a wonderfully soft bun that held everything together well. Definitely would have ordered more if not for the big bowl of ramen that came shortly after. Vegetable Ramen can be a tough dish to make tasty, as ramen typically uses animal broths to hold the flavor, but Nami did an excellent job. All the toppings they used fit perfectly, especially the fried tofu, which is my favorite go-to for any ramen restaurant. If you are in the area and want a filling meal, go check out Nami Ramen!

Then each person ordered their meals, I opted for a build your own Poké bowl, which I was happy to see did not have a topping limit, like many places do, but I was a little disappointed by the tiny amount of each topping that they actually put on, but it was delicious.

Last time he was there, not sure the difference there but a couple other people felt the same way. I know your experience can be so different based on who is there that day cooking the food, the quality of the ingredients that come in that time, and a number of other factors, so I will definitely have to give this place another chance and see what the real deal is .
