This has quickly become my new go to sushi spot. They're take out only at this time but everything is always packaged well and my orders have always been correct and made on time. Last time they even threw a surprise miso soup into my order on a cold snowy night that was much appreciated. The sushi is delicious, always very fresh and flavorful and you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Definitely an excellent spot. read more

Updating my review. I know many restaurants are struggling right now. Their take out game is on point but dine-in service is awful. The fish is okay. If you want a great dine in experience go to Sakana in east Arvada. read more

Delicious fresh sushi. Nice ambience, low key restaurant. Feels luxurious for such a small size. The salmon tuna combo was enough for just me. The service is prompt and always extremely courteous. When they bring a check, they also bring a small thank you dish. Very tasty! Will come back again! read more

What's better on a snowy day than hot miso soup? Totally had a craving today and decided to stop here for lunch. Ordered the Sushi Bento Box that came with miso. I have to say this was the best miso soup I had had in AGES! So flavorful and delicious. The bento cane with salad topped in a tasty Asian ginger dressing, 4 freshly seared pork goyzas, 4 pieces of fresh sushi, and 8 of the best California roll pieces (and I'm not big on California rolls). EVERYTHING was amazing and was only $12.50 for all of that food. Probably a good thing this place isn't closer to home or the office, or I'd be here on at least a weekly basis. read more

Best sushi in the area. We do mostly takeout but the place is peaceful and the service is great for dining in.

Relocating to Arvada, CO for the summer I went over Easter weekend to check out my new spot and local diggs! What's a Miami and NYC boy to do for cool, chic food when temporarily relocating to a small town vibe... Why eat Sushi of course! Aji is located about a mile from my place and I couldn't be happier! The Restaurant itself is small and humble with a small sushi bar - but don't let that fool you! The quantity and quality this little joint puts out is top notch! Nigiri to full sushi boats, there's no problem accommodating. It's also sushi done right. Yellowtail rolls prepared with fresh jalapeño and Yuzo sauce the correct dishes. Being that sushi is my lifeline to life, there's no doubt these chefs are experienced, craft full, and care about their art. Make any roll low carb by substituting cucumber for rice ($1) which exactly what I did to my amazing Rocky Mountain Roll *100% high quality/fresh *clean and well kept *amazing selection of rolls for any palate *reasonably priced *happy experience - There 5*'s Rolled into 1 happy customer :D read more

Some of the best sushi I have had in the metro area. Very quaint little tiny hole in the wall at a strip mall. Lots of delicious choices and the fish is pretty fresh! read more

Fav spot near me. Always amazing and great selection. Veggie gyoza are sooo good, my brother loves the eel avalado roll!! Their bento boxes are good too. I keep coming back here. Chill little spot with good vibes. Not too loud and always get prompt service. Love this spot sm read more

I just drove 40 minutes across town to get dinner from Sushi Aji. I used to live much closer and went there often. I move across town, but still go there from time-to-time, because I like their spider rolls (I've had MANY of them, over the years). I picked up my spider roll, drove home, and opened the bag. There was my spider roll, but no wasabe. It's just not the same without the wasabe, but I'm not going to waste ANOTHER 80 minutes to go back and get some from them. So I threw the spider roll away and had a bologna sandwich for dinner. VERY disappointed in their lack of attention to detail. Won't make the same mistake again. read more

great sushi. we split a few rolls for lunch and everything was delish. great find. The Playboy, Spicy Tuna, Scallops and nigiri were all great choices. read more

I love the sushi it's super good and they have a variety of sushi. Usually we order it so I can't rate the service or ambiance but I think it would have good service and ambience. read more

Three times now, we have ordered takeout and it has been double (or longer) than the wait time stated upon calling in the order. They did nothing to fix the situation except continue to state "working on it" ... The sushi quality is fine for being in Arvada, but if you have any time constraints whatsoever, AVOID. Really disappointing. read more

So yummy! Great portions and fresh taste. We don't love here but always make it a point to get some sushi here. You will not be disappointed. read more

Consistently good, never a surprise when the bill comes and still a family favorite when it's a call for ease and good taste in the neighborhood. read more

One of our favorite sushi spots around! Fish is fresh, wide variety of special rolls.

Sushi was really good. If service had been up to par it would've received more stars. Also, we came for the happy hour. Apparently they decided not to do happy hour anymore but failed to take the menu off the website. A little apology and maybe hooking up a free sake would've gotten a 5 star review but not much effort was made into making us happy. But all in all, if you're coming for sushi and don't expect much else then it's pretty good. I guess for $100 tab I'm looking for the full package. read more

A little update 3/9/2018: When ordering anything with crab, ask if it's real crab. They don't tell you on the menu when it's imitation. Otherwise, the sushi is excellent and the all Japanese staff are attentive, but not intrusive. The decor is a tasteful modern with beautiful, soft lighting and exotic, sculpture-like hanging lamps that look like graceful jellyfish floating above you. The music they pipe in is also pleasant and modern, filling out the experience like a cherry on top. We have never left with a complaint other than the imitation crab issue. It's a pearl tucked quietly away in a little, nondescript shopping strip. It almost feels as if you step through the door into a secret getaway. read more

Food is good and the service is always friendly and prompt. I love going there if I have had a bad day at work to treat myself and have always had good dining experiences. read more

The only go-to Sushi place in West Arvada serves up excellent sushi. I've had friends that are "sushi-snobs" visit from out of town on several occasions tell us that this is their favorite sushi they've ever had. Worth the drive from Denver or Boulder... come get some yummy sushi at Sushi Aji! read more

I visit Arvada every couple of months and I ALWAYS stop here, usually for a to go order. But yesterday I sat in with my daughter and we had a great experience. Our server was very attentive and helpful. But I have to tell you, the secret to great sushi is amazing sushi rice. And I tell you what! Their sushi rice is excellent. I love when I get the chance to stop here. Definitely go check it out read more

Uhm.... This is the best sushi in NW Arvada, hands down. We've tried them all... trust me!

Definitely a great place to go. The only reason I did not give it 5-stars is that an order was late, and the Yaki Chicken Rice was not that good. The sushi however is fantastic. I travel the world, and sushi is one of the best food type to keep me going, not get bogged down. The superwhite tuna at Aji is the best sushi I have ever had! read more

Started with the Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna appetizer which was really flavorful and recommended by our server. Really fresh tasting fish especially their salmon, and white tuna nigiri which we tried. Finished with the delicious Playboy Roll...our new favorite. Great prices for the quality of fish and very friendly service. We live 45 min away but we'll be coming back and even tell our sushi loving friends! read more

Not the best but not the worst. This place has decent sushi. I would recommend going down the street to Mika Sushi if you're looking for a place in this area. It has this place beat by far. read more

Highly scored by fellow yelpers. So we went. Right away I noticed the theme here is all about waiting and apologies from the staff about being busy. And confusion :( Food wasn't bad. We had a few sashimis and an order of shrimp tempura and more fried stuff. Squid. Yeah. It was one of those nights. I was expecting the tempura to be the usual but the batter was too thick for me. I'm used to the light and almost delicate batter. Here it was thick. So scratch that from my list to try here if I'm back -ever. I don't know if I'll be back. Waiting on an empty stomach. Watching the staff running around and not stopping by your table until you Stop them or trip them. A very unsettling feeling. Am I going to eat tonight or Not? I don't want to wonder :( No pictures. Too hungry. When it came we ate and ate... I forgot to take pics:( Good news. The fish are fresh. Thank god they didn't have to wait for humans too long...:( read more

my wife and I went to this restaurant Tuesday, August 13 ordered our normal two rolls sushi sashimi the last time we were there. We thought that the sushi was not fresh but from frozen so we figured we try it again. Everything went well but when we got our bill, they charged us for scallops that we did not get. We ordered them, but did not receive them. They wanted to argue with us and tell us that they gave it to us and they were going to check their cameras, I've been eating scallops for 20 years and numerous sushi restaurants all over the world and I've never ever in my lifetime scene where they wanna argue with you to tell you that they serve something that you did not receive this is not the first time that I've had this problem at sushi restaurants but I've never had them argue with us regarding our bill. Our bill was $149 for two people with one beer and sake. I don't think it's worth the money that they charge and being that the manager and the waitress both wanted to argue with us , I would never go back to this place if I was on my deathbed read more

Reviews steered me wrong this time. Stopped in for a Sunday brunch. The service was quite slow, I think they were a bit understaffed. Started with the miso soup and chicken gyoza. The miso was flavorless and the gyoza were pretty standard. Ordered the Phoenix, Volcano, and Rocky Mountain rolls. All were just ok. One thing that I really disliked was the fake crabmeat that they were topped with. A restaurant should specify if it is the processed fake crabmeat in my opinion. I can't recommend Sushi Aji, they are the only sushi restaurant in the area so they have a captive audience. read more

Wonderful food and service! We come here at least once a week and are always happy with the experience. Their sushi always tastes fresh. My kids love the tempura, potstickers, and noodles. The staff is extremely friendly. read more

I am not a big sushi fan, but my husband kept nagging me to go and even drug me somewhat unwilling. I tried a few things and it seemed good, but my pallet isn't really refined to the sophistication of sushi. It wasn't bad but like every other California role and smoked salmon with cream cheese I wasn't excited or convinced that this place was something special. However, friends of ours came into town and so we chose this place for a late night dinner. They had just spent 4 years in Japan and their sushi knowledge was convincing me of branching out. We got so much sushi which came out on thier large sushi boat and beautifully presented. I really enjoyed myself and in experimenting with more than the Americanized California Roll I was pleasantly surprised and even found a favorite sushi roll I look forward to having. I like that this place offers a wide variety of vegetarian options so you can try the different styles if the fish option frightens you. However they also have some great sea food options that are so subtle that you can get hooked amd not even know. I like this place and the experience is always good. A bit small, but nice ambiance and efficient staff. read more

Typically this is my favorite sushi spot... just picked up an order, got two sweet potato rolls, I'm pregnant so I can't have raw fish so this has been my go to... typically it's super crunchy and the presentation is great.. this time I can not say the same, the entire middle was soggy and not even slightly crispy and it just looks like it was made very half a**. They told me twenty minutes and I was there in exactly that amount of time so there was absolutely no reason it should've been soggy and not crispy like it has been every other time I've ordered. Super disappointed. Rolls looked like sh*t and tasted that way too. read more

We have been eating in and order out for the last three years and they have been going down hill in quality. Tonight was the last straw, the sushi looked like something we we try to do by our selves, not prepared by a professional. Do not recommend, we made our last visit. read more

A family run restaurant with a genuine desire to serve their guests. Excellent food and service. Katie and the Sushi Aji crew are all so happy. You're guaranteed to have a wonderful experience. Give Sushi Aji your patronage - an Arvada gem! read more

This place is really good! The yellowtail jalapeño appetizer is delicious. We got the Sashimi lunch plate one day and the next day we got the Sashimi dinner plate and the dinner has more fish. Obviously because it's dinner. The fish was very fresh and the service was great. Next time I am this way I will eat there again. The parking lot entrance is crazy so turn in by the mcDonalds. Enjoy! read more

Great local spot for good quality food and service.

Was excited by the great reviews and gave Sushi Aji a try!!! Checked in at 6:30... was seated at 7:15. Began to notice that Tables that were seated when I checked in had not received their food yet. We watched Grub Hub and Uber Eats drivers impatiently waiting for to go orders. It was a mess. We got our food - which was OK - an hour and 15 minutes after our order was taken. We watched at least 20 to go orders leave before we got our dinner. The sushi sashimi looked like a 10 year sliced it. Presentation was not artistic or exciting at all... nothing like the fun pictures on the website. I feel for these guys in the "pandemic" ... but they might need to consider just doing to go orders. There was no shortage of those!!! Good luck!!! read more

Came here on a Wednesday night. Got the salmon lover platter and my bf got the sushi and sashimi combo. Both were great! Service was great too! They even gave us a little free dessert :) read more

Love the food it tastes fresh and the rice is a good consistency, the service is good they usually have serious waitresses but the costumer service is great. Love the decorations and it's all related to the sushi or fish and creates a great vibe. read more

Super fresh fish great service prices are going up but what isn't I can't go as much as I would like but it's the best
