The Las Vegas roll (top) and the Eel Roll (bottom)
Shalil J.

Sushi is one of those places I didn't care for growing up, but I would always accompany my mom, and because of this restaurant, i slowly acquired a taste for sushi and now love this cuisine! We always tend to order the same 3 items when we visit: the green mussels for appetizer and the Las Vegas Roll and Eel Roll. (In the past, I used to also order the Teriyaki Chicken lunch special, which I'd highly roccomend for those non sushi enthusiasts). The green mussels are so tasty. Each order comes in 5 shells with 2 mussels in each, drizzled in a couple of tasty sauces. I'd highly recommend this as an appetizer as the flavors are unique and the value of this item is great as well. The Eel Roll is very tasty. It's a more traditional sushi roll where the eel, cucumber, and usually the avocado are wrapped on all sides by rice (I order the avocado on the side as I'm allergic). It's a lighter but tasty and healthier sushi option. The Las Vegas Roll is a cream cheese roll with crab and lightly fried. It is beyond tasty! (If you do order these two rolls, I'd recommend eating the Eel Roll before the Las Vegas Roll as it is a slightly lighter flavor). Another roll we've ordered in the past, which is also tasty, is the Dragon Roll. Overall, the service is always nice, and you can tell they appreciate every single customer and treat you with nothing but smiles. There is also plenty of seating, even during a lunch rush, so there's really no reason not to give this place a try!

Good upper scale sushi place. Really nice cozy little place but good food and beautiful plating. Got a bunch of individual sushis and one golden roll which was actually really good. Service was good and more fancy than your average place. Was 32 for all you can eat and 5 for sake so very happy.

The Head Sushi Chef is on point like always. Sushi is hand made excellence. The staff is on point, always there for accoutrement and smiling service. We have been going there for over 7 years. We will be going there for many more.

I had a fantastic birthday lunch here with a 4 year old on her birthday with her mom, her brother and Jamie. The occasion was extraordinary with the 4 year old and her 2 year old brother loving and devouring the sushi, from 2 veggie rolls to salmon sushi and miso soup too! The food is good. Not the best in town but still good. Service on for a late lunch on a Friday was slow and a bit disorganized. The ambiance is a bit eclectic and indicative of a conversion to a restaurant from a prior use - apparently a home. I would go back for another birthday when she turns 5 - as this venue is close to her home.

I've been visiting sushi Uokura for years. It's a really good sushi staple in the Denver west area. My favorite roll as of late is the Tokyo roll. If you can handle a bit of spice it is great! They also do all you can eat sushi for $32 per person and it's a great deal considering the amount of sushi you can order, if you can handle it. The staff is always very nice and the sushi chefs are quick! Definitely recommend!!

This place is great! Sushi guys are always super welcoming! Cute place, layout is funky in a good way, sushi bar is our favorite. Sushi is delish - great options!

It's just okay. The seaweed salad had mostly cucumbers topped with about a tablespoon of seaweed. Waste of money.

Does the whole table have to get AYCE or can one person get AYCE and others at the table order from the normal menu?

Some people can get AYCE and some can order from the normal menu.

When you think about eating in a mall, you think of going to the food court and grab anything that…read morewould satisfy your hungry. DON'T! Not here at Colorado Mills. Just a few steps down from the main food court and away from the loud noises and conversations, you can eat in peace and have a nice conversation with your friends. Mark Sushi, the name of the restaurant was named after the owner's young son, offers great options including fried dumplings, tempura, bento boxes, chicken bowls, and a large selection of sushi and sashimi. I ordered the mango avocado salad, which was filled with delicious and thinly slices of mango and avocado. This salad was very fresh! It contained fresh seaweed and leafy greens. Sesame seeds were added to the top of the salad. For $7, I don't think you can get a better salad than this one. My main entrée was the salmon bento box. The rice that was underneath these 5 pieces of salmon was very good. Along with the rice was the sauce, which gave the dish some great savory flavor, this part of the bento was delicious. My favorite? They were the pieces from the California rolls. As I ate these pieces, I loved the crunchiness from the cucumber, and the crab meat and the fresh avocado gave these 5 pieces a nice taste for my tastebuds. Oh? What about the broccoli tempura? Cooked to perfection. These florets were cooked in oil, but they were not oily. Not at all. The place is small. Perhaps no more than 25-30 diners, but the owner and his 2 staff members were very nice. He checked on us often, making sure our group is doing okay. If you are at Colorado Mills Mall and want to eat something other than some so-so food at the food court, walk toward Dick's Sporting Goods , which is Gate #5. There, you'll find a hidden gem you didn't even know. You will thank me.

We found Mark Sushi through Yelp's high reviews in Colorado Mills. Arrived on a Monday night around…read more6pm and only saw one other family seated. Two friendly guys greeted us and they let us pick any table to sit. The wall of pictures with XL photos were awesome to preview the rolls which were mostly marked with 10 pieces so I had a feeling the portions would be generous. Not that it stopped us from ordering too much though! Okay, normally I would never consider mall sushi, just saying. But you might find me coming back here. Super convenient. Fresh huge pieces. Great sushi place to bring my hungry kids! Clean and festive decor, loved the colorful umbrellas. We met the owner Ko Ko who said they've been open for about 2 years. Very friendly and courteous. We parked right in front of Dick's and walked into entrance 5. Mark Sushi is right there. Give it a try!

Delivery sushi might have a weird reputation. I mean, you think of beautifully presented fresh fish on fancy plates. Well sometimes that's just unrealistic. Mika Sushi has great Yelp reviews and they're not far from our house. We ordered them on DoorDash and we were stuffed after dinner! When I say stuffed...these were some of the LARGEST sushi rolls I've ever had. Normally I can house two specialty rolls, and these were LOADED to the brim. My mouth was barely wide enough to down these GIANT rolls in one bite (keep it PG). Mexican Roll ($16.95) // spicy yellowtail, cucumber, salmon and jalapeño. A little heavy handed on the sauce. Spicy, savory, tasty. Godzilla Roll ($17.95) // spicy tuna, spicy yellowtail, avocado, tuna, seared salmon, special sauce. Loaded with flavor, well balanced, filling. Rock Shrimp ($10.95) // fried shrimp with creamy sauce. Their take on bang bang shrimp. These were good, but would've been even better fresh out the fryer at the restaurant. Simple, easy, can't go wrong. I have to reiterate that these were maybe the BIGGEST sushi rolls ever. I don't know if it translates in the photos. Normally a sushi roll is sliced into 8 pieces; these could've been 10 or 12 pieces! I am full just thinking about this meal! Will have to check out the actual restaurant one of these days. Thanks for filling our bellies on a cold winter night.

Located in a very non descript strip center, Mika is serving up some of the best sushi bites I have ever had. (FYI.... my last meal on earth will be sushi.... so I have a take out menu with me!). Mika is a friendly little sushi place with a modest menu with very very reasonable prices. My bff and I headed there (at my request) for our last meal of 2024....... let's celebrate I told her. So we sat back in our seats, ordered up some sake and wine and got to it. First up, their 8 piece sushi plate with a California Roll, soup and salad for $20.99. That's right 8 pieces, a roll, soup and salad.... a killer deal.. The pieces were very nice size and extraordinarily fresh. I don't really love a CA roll (but my bff does).... and Mika's was really nice. But the biggest surprise was the miso soup..... I think there was fairy dust in it. It was sooo perfect.... I don't usually order soup (fills me up and I can't more fish). Okay, next (that 8 piece is gonna be hard to beat). We ordered the Arvada roll. We are in Arvada, just seemed appropriate (and extremely kitschy!). The waitress delivered a 10 piece roll on a platter (not a plate). Inside spider, mango, spicy tuna and avocado wrapped with soy paper. I love soy paper! This roll was lovely, plentiful amount of fish with the perfect sweet spicy combination.... wow! Gonna be near impossible to beat this one... but nooo..... Next up, the Godzilla roll with spicy tuna, spicy yellowtail, avocado inside, topped with tuna, salmon seared with special sauce. The flavor was amazing, a light smokey seared salmon kinda stole the show.... but this roll came together in perfect harmony of flavors. Oh dear I am stuffed, but I WANT MORE. Next time I guess.....
