1 star for the hostess greeting. 3 for the taste & quality 5 for the outstanding service from waiter and kitchen. There's Uchi not too far from Tokio if you want 5 out 5 in all of those categories for similar price. read more

My first time in Denver and I found this restaurant on Yelp. This place has great reviews so my friend and I decide to give it a try. They do not take reservations btw. So we get there, the person sitting us must have been new because she had no clue what to do and had to ask servers to seat people. Our server took forever to come to our table and we think because she was new as well. One of my food items came to our table, we ask her, what is that? She says "I don't know they just to her to bring it to our table". We asked is it ours? She was like " I don't know " . Other than the service, the food was great. I just won't come again on "training" night. This is also a very cozy place and great for date night. They also have $4 sake happy hour! It's a lot of sake. Two people can honestly drinks from one. read more

I went with a friend and sat at the sushi bar. We had mixed emotions about our dinner. I had the kurodai sushi and it was excellent - fresh and well prepared. We both had ramen. My friend had the lemon ramen with chicken instead of pork and I had the spicy miso ramen with chicken instead of pork. We were asked if we wanted to add an egg and both said yes. We were told we could trade out chicken for pork if we wanted to. We both did. The broth and noodles were good, egg perfectly cooked. The chicken wasn't great. It was a bit rubbery and had no flavor. Overall my ramen was a rating of "fine to good", but not great. While we found the server and the sushi chef very friendly and the place was cozy and quaint with an upscale feel, we didn't like not being made aware about upcharges on our meal. We received the bill and saw we were each charged an additional $3 to have chicken subbed and $0.75 for the egg (expected the egg up charge). That did not set well with us. We told our server who simply apologized, but didn't remove the charge or say he should've told us. Also, the sushi chef chatted with us a little and was very nice, but later he turned on his phone to listen to something online, which was making considerable noise that we could hear while we tried to visit. This was unpleasant and unprofessional. read more

A cute space ambient space good for a date, they were able to accommodate our group of 10. The meal katsu curry with rice was okay, the portion was good. salmon and rice was okay, but nothing was too special. They don't seem to cook their miso soup tho but just pour hot soup in dried seaweed and tofu. The restaurant also offer nigiri, sushi, and sashimi. It was good, price for the happy hour or daily for those seems good. The fish was fresh, wished I tried that more than the meal combo. Server was friendly and attentive. The table could have been bigger. Bathroom is also clean and decorated nicely. Overall, would come back to try their sushi options. read more

Tokio's late night happy hour special is genius! The ambience and customer service was immaculate. We got the: Takoyaki: generous amounts of octopus, great flavor and outside crisp, wish the batter was cooked a little longer White fish Tokio Sashimi: The flavor was overtaken by the tomato and half the fish we got was a bit mushy. Will not get again. Shu Mai: These were huge! The meat was so tender and we appreciated the side of wasabi. Quail egg Nigiri: Amazing and clean tasting egg, will order every time now Ama Ebi: Sweet and perfect texture, our favorite of the night Spicy tuna hand roll, spicy salmon hand roll, Philadelphia hand roll: all standard rolls and can't go wrong with the ingredients inside. I do however wish the outside nori wasn't soggy by the time it got to our table. read more

I came here on a whim since I was originally planning to go to Jinya Ramen bar at union station nearby but when the wait was close to an hour for party of 2, I wanted to look elsewhere and I'm glad I did ! Restaurant is 2 stories but not too big, has a cozy feel. I loved the decorate and made me feel like I was transported to Japan. Didn't have to wait long to get seat which was nice, there was a rush afterwards so people had to wait around 20-30 minutes or so. We got the shio ramen and the dynamite roll and the portions were perfect ! The broth of the ramen was flavorful and not too salty. The ramen was well cooked. The sushi was fresh and satisfied my craving. Additionally, service did not take too long. Overall, would definitely recommend it to other people. read more

The Tonkotsu ramen broth was not what I expect from a pork ramen broth, it wasn't creamy and rich and the flavor was lacking. The noodles were also slightly gummy, not firm and chewy, which is not the best texture for a fresh ramen noodle. The service and environment was great. read more

Rumor has it that this is the place they send folks when Domo is full so Katie and I decided to hit up happy hour. We were definitely not disappointed. The did, the service, the modern ambiance were all spot on! Highly recommend!! Wish I remembered to take a photo before devouring all the yumminess. Recommend all the hand rolls, nigiri and the agadashi tofu. read more

Had a wonderful experience here! Appetizers and small plates were amazing, we enjoyed the kushi katsu and the takoyaki which were extremely flavorful. We came during happy hour and enjoyed a selection of nigiri followed by ramen for main courses. The selection of ramen is great and all of the styles we ordered were delicious (miso, spicy shoyu, cremoso diablo). The interior of the restaurant is wonderfully decorated and lit and our server was so attentive the entire time we were there. Would absolutely love to come back! read more

This place is top tier! Where to even begin: a moody, quaint ramen spot near Coors Field with beautiful wooden accents and Japanese lamp fixtures. Our server, G, was impeccable. Highly attentive, well-versed and friendly. The broths are hands-down the most flavorful and aromatic I've experienced here in Denver. The appetizers were impeccable, though this time around our Gyoza was a little undercooked. I would just ensure to ask for extra crisp just in case next visit, the first time they were perfect! Highly recommend, an addition to our regular rotation dinner spots. :) read more

Such a great experience here! Paid parking a short walk away. Our waitress was very friendly. The ambiance of the restaurant is very relaxing and pretty. Not a ton of indoor seating, but we were seated right away, even on the night of a Rockies game. My husband got the chicken teriyaki bowl and a spicy yellowtail hand roll and really enjoyed both! I got the salmon teriyaki bowl and a california hand roll (happy hour only $5 rolls!). The salmon teriyaki bowl was an awesome deal, it came with two large pieces of salmon! We were really impressed with the generous portions of the bowls. Flavors on both bowls were really good! It didn't taste as overpoweringly salty as most teriyaki dishes. The miso soup was good, but not super salty, overall good buy mild flavors in everything. A great experience here! Highly recommend going during happy hour, they have some great deals! read more

Staff are great, ambiance is nice. Food was not good. I tried the cod appetizer and just too salty. My husband ordered sushi and it was nothing special. I ordered the pork ramen - the half egg was cold, it had one leaf of bok choy, the pork was gray and again the broth was super salty. I ordered hot tea and my husband had a beer and saki, the tab came to $100 with tip. Disappointed for sure. read more

my sushi was great. fair value for price and somewhat on par with other higher end sushi spots in denver. loved the decor. our server was nice, but seemed a little anxious. caveat: my friend's ramen was so-so. he thought the extra charge for an egg was ridiculous lol. read more

TOKIO has become a must-go-to every time we visit Denver. The food is simply amazing. We started with the sautéed trumpet king mushroom appetizer, chicken Kara-age, and shishito peppers were a nice way to start our dinner. But don't overstuff yourself because the sashimi and sushi is super-fresh and delicious. Everything was just A+++++. The owners and staff treated us so well and were there for anything we needed., read more

On occasion, language doesn't do justice as descriptor. It's the reason police officers hire sketch artists. Words are building blocks. like legos. But if a general contractor showed up to a job site with the millennium falcon set, ready to work, he would be laughed out the building. I typed out "the tuna was buttery," but scoffed at the implications. "Buttery" is true for movie theater popcorn. It might even be true for a lesser sashimi tuna. But it is a woeful insult for Tokio sashimi. Tokio sashimi made me break out in song. Arigato gozaimashita! read more

If you're thinking about ordering online or delivery, DONT. You will get an email saying your food will be ready, but you can comfortably add an hour to that wait time. Came into the restaurant and waited over 50 minutes for my order which was pre-paid for and ordered over 2 hours ago, which was said to be ready, but they haven't even started on it when I arrived. A restaurant that serves ramen, all day, couldn't pour my broth into a to-go bowl and package it up on time. Ridiculous. There was no one at the host booth the entire time. Calls rang. Some girl came up to ask me over and over again what name I'm here for. Watched 3 doordash drivers cancel and walk out. Watched multiple customers not get helped and walk out. And if you're bold enough to wait like me because you're non-confrontational, the place is so small and cramped there isn't even a place to sit and wait. When I finally got a little upset with the girl who has handed orders to 10 people who came in AFTER me and had to pay on the spot, she was very rude and just kept walking away. At this point just make the Ramen at home. It will be faster and will probably taste better. read more

Came here with a friend on a Monday night. HAPPY HOUR! No reservation needed. It is located walking distance from most places downtown and the Coors field. They have bar seating a very cute upstairs that I would like to check out and a large table in the middle for a big group. They have something for everyone, ramen, sushi and cooked items. Everything was so fresh and delicious. It was pretty empty when we went so I would think that if it is more crowded it might take a while to get food. The staff were on top of it and attentive. The happy hour prices cannot be beat! I will totally come back for happy hour again. Strong 4/5 stars! :) read more

My new favorite sushi spot! I came for happy hour and really enjoyed my visit. Keep in mind their parking becomes a challenge during Rockies games. We sat at the counter and got to watch them prepare our rolls which was extra fun. The service was great and every staff member was welcoming. I really enjoyed the rolls with garlic butter as they were unique but everything we tried was awesome! It's a small spot but I haven't had any issues with seating when visiting. read more

Overall decent sushi and ramen spot near the baseball stadium. Came here after a game, wasn't very packed and had a cozy ambiance. Ordered several of their specialty sushi (priced $15-18) and overall nice taste. Wasn't "wow'd" but the fresh did taste fresh. Unfortunately no mocktails on their menu which is less common these days for the NA drinkers. read more

From edamame and shishito peppers, to Ramen Air and sushi, you will not be disappointed. If you're wanting to be a little tucked away, ask for seating upstairs, where it's quiet and relaxing. Pro tip; park in back and walk around. Easier than trying to street park in front. read more

Best sushi in the Denver area. I was craving cold sushi on a hot day today. I went and sat down at the sushi bar and noticed that it was hot in there too. I looked at the thermostat and it was 82°. It was very uncomfortable and I felt bad for the staff having to work in that temperature. I changed my order to To Go and ate it in my car. It was still great but way too hot to sit in there and enjoy cold sushi on a hot day. read more

This place was... meh. We went for dinner on a Monday evening which was pretty quiet, yet service was slow. The food was also just okay. For apps - The shishito peppers had no flavor beyond themselves (no salt or seasoning), the miso cod was strange (it was sweet??). For entrees - The vegan ramen was noodles swimming in soy milk. I'm not sure how anyone eats it, it's so strange. The sushi I got was fine, nothing special. The mochi we got at the end was decent, I liked the mango flavor. The strawberry tasted a bit artificial. They didn't have green tea :( The ambience is cute and intimate, with dim lighting and decent seating arrangement. It was probably my (only) favorite part about this place. read more

I have to admit I tried this place because it was open late during the week. And it was close to my downtown hotel near Union Station. But it will be the food atmosphere and service that cause me to return. It's the best sushi I've had in Denver. A generous portion of miso soup was first. Delicious. Then the sashimi and roll sushi which were both amazingly fresh and perfectly presented. read more

Some of the best food in Denver! Last time I was here I had dinner with two of my friends. Even though we made a reservation, we still had to wait 25 minutes for our table which was the one downfall of the night. Food is so good. We had the gyoza which were crispy and delicious. For entrees, I had the yakitori bowl with veggies and chicken which was good. The standout here is the chicken katsu rice curry- it was phenomenal. We also all had a sushi roll with dinner. I cant wait to come back and get ramen! read more

cute place, but overpriced for nothing worth it, left hungry and we still overspent. We got no alcohol only food. Got sashimi, 10 piece is wild expensive and not great quality, and had a big bone in one of them. Also came with 3 pieces per type instead of 2 per type so really not great diversity with type of fish. Just very underwhelming. read more

If you read my other reviews you might notice that Im a ramen guy. The Denver Ramen scene is t one of the better ones, but in this town Tokio is definitely going to be one of my go tos. I ordered takeout, and they did a great job on that front. The soup carried home and assembled well and still worked great. Im absolutely certain that it would have been even better fresh right at the table and Im almost certainly going to. When I was in the shop the location and vibe really scratched an itch that I have for vibes when Im doing ramen. Its in like a kind of slot house thats very cozy and kind of simulates that vibe i get when I see ramen places in Japan on TV, at least as much as can be done in a town like Denver. Now Im sure thats mostly me projecting a little of my fantasy, but this place played i to it and the food hit the spot. read more

Thank goodness for Tokio! My friends and I were hanging out, looking for a late-night ramen spot. Their kitchen closes at 10:15pm. We made it just in time because parking took FOREVER to find, with some party going on at a neighboring apartment complex. The poor servers here seemed exhausted and unresponsive, but they tried to be as friendly as possible. We started with Takoyaki and King Trumpet Mushrooms as appetizers. Don't forget to eat the bed of greens that comes beneath the mushrooms. Surprisingly flavorful! The Takoyaki was solid. Got the Cremoso Diablo as my ramen dish, which was creamy and spicy, just as promised. There's a bunch of other options I'd try next time... and potentially ask for it to be spicier. Great location (minus the parking situation) right next to downtown. Grateful for the extended dinner hours of Tokio. Not on my list of top ramen spots in Denver but will definitely be a to-go when it's later in the evening and I need to satisfy a craving! Perhaps someday I'll try some of their non-ramen options as well... fantastic extensive menu. read more

I really like the food but I have been consistently disappointed with the service. Every time I order it is at least 20-30 minutes late with absolutely zero explanation. Incredibly disappointing. And they missed an entire ramen after making me wait 40 minutes passed when my order was ready. They tried to blame the missing ramen on me and didn't offer a refund or anything. I will never return. read more

Oh, Tokio. Someone recommended your fine establishment to me in 2019 when I asked for above average food spots open late. Why did I wait so long? Well there was a little thing called COVID, but I'm glad I finally made it in! I always forget about these businesses that are a stone's throw from Coors Field. Heed my advice and come this way. After a long day on my feet, I needed a place to plop down at a bar and indulge in silence. Tokio, open until 11pm except Sundays, was exactly what the doctor ordered. On the heels of an impending snowstorm, I was craving rich flavorful broth to soothe the soul. Now I know Tokio is known for their ramen and sushi, and I really expected to have ramen. But then I saw...I saw... Katsu. Curry. Rice. A highly, HIGHLY underrated dish in Japanese cuisine. And ironically enough it's one of my all time favorites. The combination of sauce, rice and panko crusted pork (or chicken depending on your mood) is one I believe most people should experience multiple times. As soon I laid eyes on it, I just had to order it. Tokio's rendition is meticulously crafted, deceiving large and jam packed with rich flavors. The curry sauce/broth consistency is chef's kiss. With a hint of heat on the back pallete, this will keep you going back for more. The velvety sauce coats the rice beautifully. I doubt you'd be disappointed. As for the Berkshire Pork (added bonus), it was pounded thin but not too thin, cooked to a tender center and crisp exterior. Consider this fella a happy camper after a dish, rather a meal, like this one. Now I came here around 10:20pm on a Wednesday night. However all the staff members were working hard, fulfilling takeout orders and bussing tables. I didn't require much attention sitting at the bar, as I find joy merely staring at the chaos of the kitchen. I would 100% eat this Katsu Curry again. However, when I return I should probably try what they do best. Props to local restaurants for all that they do! read more

A late night craving for some sushi and drinks - a great place for both. We ordered a variety of pupus (appetizers) and drinks - Black cod (miso marinated), whole squid, grilled mackerel, tuna tataki sashimi, with a great a variety of sake and Japanese beer (surprised that they carry Orion (beer from Okinawa). The dishes were grilled, prepared, and plated in an outstanding manner - while we did not taste the ramein, based on the pupus, the other items on the menu would definitely be of high caliber too and worth trying for my next visit. read more

Great atmosphere, service, and food. We also had sake. We came because we heard the ramen was worth the trip. It was, and we enjoyed it (I had the ramen air, which is vegan) but the sushi definitely left me wanting to come back and try more! We had the diablo roll. The garlic butter made it pretty different from most sushi I've had, but I enjoyed the variety. The menu had several fun rolls on it, plus your standards, and sashimi. Husband says the fried chicken and gyoza were good. read more
