This place is awesome. Their bento box lunch special awesome!!! Customer service awesome. I called in for a pick up and ordered the wrong item thinking it was what I wanted. They were so nice and switched out the food for me!!! Thank you read more

This was a nice humble surprise. It an elegant or really warm. But it was nice. Definitely worth a return. We should have stretched out and tried more than rolls but the rolls were good! A nice selection. The mule drink was so refreshing. Hot saki was so goood. Not a great vibe. But friendly service and pretty good food. read more

Sushi Aji - Such a great place for sushi. We love everything we get here. - Japanese Near Me - Lafayette, Colorado

First time to this location. I ordered Softshell crab roll and 16 pieces sashimi. Fish are fresh. Highly recommended. Only thing I don't like they didn't have throw away chopsticks. read more

What a fun surprise! We have never been and the food was delicious! The service was also exceptional. Super fresh and so many sushi and special roll options. I highly recommend. It's more casual and was a little cold which is the only reason for the 4 and not 5 stars. But still a wonderful experience and great food. I forgot to take a photo (but I will when we go back) of the gyoza. They were the best gyoza (dumplings) I have ever had. Which says a lot bc I eat Asian and dumplings weekly. My husband had the hot sake and said it was great. We both enjoyed your traditional miso soup as well. Pros: Super fresh sushi Great menu options Excellent service Cons (none) Just some notes: Smaller if you have a very large group it may be tough or you may have to split up Casual - not a con for me but if you are looking for a fancy night out this is not it Cold - lots of windows and it was a cold night Don't wait and check this place out!!! You won't be disappointed. read more

Had a very nice lunch here. Strong selection of maki, sashimi and rolls. They also have other noodle and teriyaki chicken dishes. Quick service. Much better choice than fast food Lunch pricing was very reasonable read more

Finally found what I was looking for after moving here to Colorado from California. Quality fresh sushi like back home at reasonable prices. This makes me so happy. A routine repeat customer you now have in me and the family. Thank you for bringing me the comfort of home by being here nearby my new home. read more

I was really hoping this intimate sushi spot would become a go-to place, but unfortunately these were the worst sushi rolls I have ever had. I was a little too ambitious and ordered us several rolls. Dynamite, Soho, Lafayette , Dragon, Black Dragon, and Alaska. It was the wrong night to be indulgent. The rolls were just bland. The Soho roll was probably the best one, but pretty much everything tasted the same. The rice was gummy and muted everything. The fish was cut with inconsistent thickness. The simple Alaska roll was sloppy in its proportions and the decadent, fried, dynamite roll's flavor were lost in the layers of batter and rice. It pains me to knock any place with earnest service and a clean, comfortable ambiance, but there is decent sushi in Colorado and this isn't it. Being land locked is no excuse. I will say the service was fast. The waitress was friendly and attentive. The dining area was nice enough for a date, but not stuffy so as to be off limits at the end of running errands. Plenty of people seemed to be enjoying their dining experience, so perhaps other things on the menu are delicious, but in my opinion, if you are craving specialty Sushi rolls, roll on past Sushi Ají. read more

I ordered takeout so I can't comment on the dine-in experience, but overall, the food was great but service could improve. Ordering online was a breeze and my food was ready much quicker than estimated. Upon arriving, the hostess proceeded to focus on whatever she was looking at and didn't address me at all. I noticed a bag of food on a table off to the side so I checked the receipt and sure enough, it was mine. I looked around to see if I needed to tell someone I'm taking my food but no one was acknowledging me. Being the awkward person I am, I audibly said, "Tara... (exaggeratively examining the receipt) yep that's me!" and walked out. Even then, the hostess paid me no mind and didn't say anything. I'm glad I wasn't needing a table because I might still be standing in front of the hostess a week later. I wonder if she's still looking at whatever she was looking at that day. Hell, she might've been a mannequin with how fixated and still she was! Oh, the sushi and tempura bento box I ordered were great. I'd go back for the food, but next time I'll be prepared with an assortment of silly faces so I can see how many I can get through before the hostess finally looks up... if she ever does. read more

Love this place! They have great sushi and Japanese inspired meals. The service is always wonderful and the people running it are very nice. I started out with the tasty refreshing seaweed salad. It was tender and salty, with a great taste. The cucumber rolls were fresh and crispy. Temporah rolls were perfect and well sauced. They were delicious! You must try these, vegetarian or not! Love the beer selection as well, and the decor inside is very nice and peaceful. read more

It has been a while since we ventured out with the whole family for a meal but my sushi hankering decided last weekend would be IT! We've been to Aji Sushi several times but it's been at least 3 years. So happy to go back! 630p on a Saturday night, no wait. We were seated at the back near the bathrooms which is not my favorite but we were also out with two small children - always a gamble - so I understood. Overall we had a great meal. We started with Monkey Brains which, much to my 4.5 year old's relief, was NOT actually animal brains (it's avocado stuffed with crab/fish, fried crispy and topped with a tasty sauce). This was awesome! We ordered Yaki Udon (thick rice noodles in a tasty sauce with chicken and veggies) - a big hit with both kids and also made for most excellent day-after leftovers for mom & dad. Lastly, we ordered too much sushi. I need someone to develop some sort of mathematical equation to calculate "the right" amount of sushi. We never get it right and always over-order. I digress. As usual, nigiri is the benchmark by which we measure quality and Aji delivered! Salmon, tuna and eel - all so good! Tender, flavorful. Each roll we ordered was excellent too. Staff was friendly and so kind in accommodating various requests regarding the kiddos. It was a great night out! Looking forward to returning. read more

Ordered to go from this place. It was so bad I just threw it all away. $120 bucks down the drain. Literally wasted $120 bucks rather than eat wherever they tried to pass of as sushi. I thought I'd give them another try, but this place is not edible. read more

Dined in. Late lunch. The 15 pc sashimi comes with escolar by default. Who in their right mind would eat escolar? It's banned in much of Europe and Japan (Do some research). I ordered the 15 pc sashimi with no escolar. The yellowtail sashimi was decent. The salmon sashimi was decent. The tuna sashimi was tough, chewy and not fresh. Not good. I left one piece on the plate and I never do that. Avoid the tuna. It's the cheap stuff and not fresh. The magic roll was lackluster and loosely assembled for $16. No value there at all. We received an extra mystery order of unagi, but didn't get the extra yellowtail sashimi that we ordered. No biggie, they were nice about it. The service was friendly, but not speedy even though the restaurant was nearly empty. Prices were average for the portions but the fish quality just is not what it needs to be. There are better sushi places nearby. We probably won't be back. read more

Sushi Aji - Why would ANY restaurant serve escolar? - Japanese Near Me - Lafayette, Colorado

Tried this place because their sister restaurant (King Dumpling) was decent. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy my meal from here. Everything I ordered was undermined in some way. The Shrimp Tempura left my mouth greasy and the tempura was flavorless. Their 'ginger' dressing was mayo dressing in their salad, and was lacking toppings. It was purely lettuce and dressing. The Agedashi Tofu was also greasy and flavorless, and lacked any toppings, no grated radish nor green onions. The tempura dipping sauce and agedashi dipping sauce were both underwhelming. The cucumber salad was okay, but the portion size was also overwhelmingly majority lettuce. The jalapeno yellowtail sashimi appetizer was served warm (??) and without cilantro, and the sashimi was delivered pre-drenched in sauce that made the yellowtail look unappetizing. Just overall, very disappointing, and I didn't have any interest in finishing my meal. read more

My wife and I lived in Boulder for years, and when we moved to Lafayette we were bummed to leave so many good sushi restaurants. Never fear, for Sushi Aji is here!!! We have eaten in and gotten delivery probably two-dozen times. We love everything they have to offer, from traditional to special sushi rolls, noodle dishes, spring rolls, miso soup, and my new favorite: fried soft shell crab. My mom loves to order their salmon teriyaki, which is delicious and comes with carrots and broccoli. If you dine-in, the staff is all wicked friendly and helpful. I'm grateful we have such an amazing sushi/Japanese restaurant in East Boulder County!! read more

We ordered a selection of sushi at Aji for take outs. We love sushi. We often buy them at Whole Foods while buying grocery but we thought we could find better options at local restaurants. This would also allow us to support local business during Covid. I was very excited to try something new. Unfortunately, it was the worst sushi's I ever ate. Everything was buried under a layer of mayonnaise to mask the poor quality. The fish wasn't fresh. Everything was room temperature like it hasn't been refrigerated for several hours. The sushi were falling apart. With a bill of $80 for 3 people, it was rather disappointing. We ate half of them and we throw away the rest. I rarely throw away food but here I couldn't eat anymore of it. A shame. read more

I highly, highly recommend Sushi Aji! Not only are the staff (Stella at the register) and owner (Yuki) very friendly, they are equally efficient, and the food was fantastic! I was serviced immediately upon entering and I ordered to go at the counter. Even after arriving home, my sushi and noodles were packaged wonderfully with no issues or concerns. The establishment was also very tidy and clean. If you're looking for authentic, delicious Japanese cuisine, you know where to go :) read more

Nice little place. I enjoy the friendly staff & good food. Plenty of sushi options for any tastes. Highly recommend read more

Truly mediocre sushi. Not great, not bad. In all fairness I had delivery, but I would have hard a hard time differentiating this between grocery store sushi. Nothing good, nothing great. read more

My family loves this place, we eat here once a week! We are pescatarian and vegetarian and there are so many options for both! My favorite roll is the sweet potato roll! We do carry-out every time, but the workers are nice. Service is really fast during the week, and it backs up slightly during peak hours on the weekends. Highly recommend! read more

Always a favorite on a Friday evening! The sushi, pan fried dumplings and Udon noodle soup are favorites! We have been happy to support the Lafayette SA team for all of the years they have called this home! read more

This place made me love sushi! The service it great! Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area if they want some sushi!!

It's been a while since I've come to Sushi Aji. I've loved it every time prior to covid-times, but this visit was extremely memorable. Service was perfect. Food was divine. And I dig the casual environment. It makes me comfortable. And everything was happy making! Thank you, Sushi Aji! I'll bring the whole family next time. I know my little 5yo will love you guys just as much! read more

My favorite sushi places are in Seattle, Portland, and San Fran...no duh. But I live in Colorado and don't travel much these days. So there is a great sushi place in my area. This is it. No muss, no fuss sushi. Quality of the fish is excellent for a land locked state. The service is top notch and the owner cares about what and how it gets on your plate. Currently, no indoor dinning. Take out or delivery only. We do take out yet it is made right on time so it doesn't sit and get mushy. read more

I'm picky about sushi--I think this place has fresh fish and I did find a roll I really like (Red Dragon Roll--cut thin so it's 10 pieces instead of 8. I recommend adding spicy mayo or getting it on the side like I did)! I would say they could have more creative rolls--I mean, less lobster and crab additions and more interesting mixes using lemon, mango, tempura asparagus, or special sauces. Yes, I'm speaking only from my picky American taste, so take that as you will. I meant to add, the wait staff is friendly and attentive, and the place is small and cute--no sushi bar, but nice, well lit tables. Another update: OH MY GOD get the ice cream waffle thing (Bubble Waffle with ice cream)!! I never get dessert and don't love sweets and yet this was to die for!!! Warm waffle--but not the thick kind so it's the perfect pairing with the ice cream...So GOOD!! read more

I'd try them again! The mix of spicy rolls was pretty good. (There's a few different kinds in there. Some are excellent and some are so so) The main thing giving me pause is their California Roll. Not good at all. The ingredients don't seem fresh and the texture was mushy. Still, they've got a great menu and their speciality rolls are worth a try for sure. Delivery was prompt and seamless. read more

I really like the food, it's very fresh and the service is very good we will come back again !!!

Sushi Aji has some of the best sushi I've tried in Lafayette. It's pretty good considering we're so far from the ocean. The food is nice but inside the restaurant is kinda dirty. It just doesn't seem very well taken care of and there are sometimes flies. We usually order for takeout for that reason, so I do recommend doing an order pickup with them! read more

Very good sushi. Creative items, not just the same old stuff most places have. Bang for the buck is good for sushi, not the best so they lose a star to be fair to others that have the same quality and better prices or larger quantities. read more

Love these guys! The front staff works so hard!! The food is really tasty. The Rocky Mt Roll and Black dragon roll are excellent!

Fantastic takeout sushi! We are regulars but have never dined in. I feel the need to commend this small, middle-of-the-country purveyor of fresh, delicious sushi, sashimi and inventive rolls. Tempura is a favorite of our kids, and I love the spicy tuna rice bowl. But seriously, just look at the time and attention they put into a takeout platter! read more

Sushi Aji - Five different rolls, two types of super fresh sushi, all presented on a gorgeous platter (nice surprise!) from Sushi Aji - Japanese Near Me - Lafayette, Colorado

Sushi was fair. Noodles were good. Nice atmosphere but would not order sushi again here.

We ordered 4 rolls and we were okay with two of them. They weren't super busy when we went in and the service was alright. Inside the restaurant is pretty plain and the kitchen is visible. Definitely not the best local sushi unless you find a roll you personally like. read more

The salmon sushi/sashimi is great, but yellowtail hasn't been fresh the few times I've eaten here. Too Pricy for the amount of fish served. Good service, though. read more

Just found this little spot tucked away in Lafayette/Broomfield area and absolutely loved it!! Great and fast service and sushi was fantastic! I highly recommend this sushi spot. I will certainly return whenever I am anywhere near this area. read more

Sushi Aji - Japanese Near Me - Lafayette, Colorado

There was literally nothing to write home about at this place. Everything was fine. Not horrible, not great. My wife and I got the Sushi and Sashimi for Two. Our least favorite was the White Tuna, it was tough and not great... my wife got the seaweed salad which is typically her favorite and barely had 1 bite. Otherwise the atmosphere is very strip mall and since the windows aren't covered you can watch the cars drive through the McDonalds drive thru. For over $100 for dinner, this is a place we won't be adding to our regulars. read more

I stopped in to try this place after reading the reviews on yelp. I ordered the $22 sushi and sashimi lunch. It was supposed to come with a California roll. When my order arrived, it had a spicy tuna roll instead. I asked the server and she told me I was mistaken. When I paid the $28 bill, I want to the front and checked the menu, California roll. When I asked the same server, she asked if I didn't like the spicy tuna roll, not the point. She made no apology and looked upset that I pointed it out. Not going back! read more
