I can't express how much I wanted to love this place. An all vegan sushi place with a promise of real sushi like flavors and not just sweet potato tempura on everything... ya that sounded good. But sadly the flavors were non-existent and our experience kept on getting worse. We ordered Hot Flamingo Roll and Fiery Philly Roll. One just tasted like mango and other like Sriracha... literally no other flavors or textures even. The wasabi had the most taste. We thought maybe the Ramen would be better so we got the Tantanmen Ramen and that was worse somehow... it was not hot and tasted sweet like vanilla. Sadly, I would recommend to skip this place altogether no matter what menu item here attracts you. The service was ok... you order food on the counter first which is not very sushi like. And the crowd here was also not the best.
First of all I was stoked to know there was a vegan sushi place in Denver and I brought my children with me to try what they had to offer. We had the Okonomi Fries, Katsu Curry Burrito, Fiery Philly Roll, and the Hot Flamingo Roll. The place looked trendy, clean and promising. However we waited a long while for our food to come to our table. Fortunately they served us the Okonomi Fries which tided us over until the rest of our food arrived. I have to admit the food was good and the sushi rolls were spot on as good as they come. They pulled off the impossible, their sushi rolls were like the real thing, texture, taste and flavor. I kinda liked the Hot Flamingo roll which did a great job imitating a real tuna roll. I also like the Katsu Curry Burrito as well. However the portions were rather small and the prices were in my opinion pricey and after eating all that we ordered, it was not filling. We were still hungry even after paying over $50 worth of food. It's good, don't get me wrong, but the portions for what you pay for is lacking.
So many options to choose from! A favorite vegan sushi place of mine in California recently closed, so I was glad to get to come support & try a vegan sushi spot on my trip to Denver. I got the Tamago Natto Oshi because I've always wanted to try Natto. It was like an umami explosion. Super intense umami flavor because of the truffle, so be prepared! The rice was done perfectly. I'm not sure what the flat yellow part was, but it reminded me of chickpea tofu. The seaweed salad was vibrant and yummy! My friend got the sushi rolls and they were beautiful! I tired the royal potato one and it just tasted like purple sweet potato (the potato overpowered the other flavors). Ordering is self serve. It was nice because the system showed pictures of most of the menu items, so it helped me confirm what I wanted by seeing what it would look like. Lots of seating. Water & napkins & chopsticks were also self serve. I was surprised they didn't have reusable chopsticks. The staff member I spoke with was helpful. I asked quite a few questions about what menu items were & which fake meats were homemade or from certain brands. I would definitely come back here to try more menu items, like ramen!
Everything is so full of flavor! I live in Wyoming and will drive to Denver specifically to go to Wellness Sushi. The ramen is soooo delicious and my boyfriend (who's been to Japan) says the ramen tastes fully authentic. I cannot wait to eat here again! Also, the staff is very kind, and it has a very calming vibe in the restaurant.
Potential for better, you can tell the rolls are made by professionals. Out of 4 rolls I really liked 2, especially the smoked one. Two of them had too much toppings of crunch and mayo, which made the taste of the real roll underpowered. Overall I recommend it and will go back.
This place is fire for vegan sushi. I would love if they had more gluten free options, but for a dedicated vegan spot I'm really impressed. Mostly, I'm a bit confused as to how more of the options aren't GF as they report all their soy sauce is GF (I assume that they use a tamari or coconut aminos, meaning that their menu items listing "dark soy sauce" are either incorrect or all their soy sauce is not GF?). Service took about 40 minutes for the sushi rolls, 20 minutes over the anticipated time and we had to remind the waitress of a roll we ordered. I tried the ramen and wasn't incredibly impressed with the flavor -- just a bit bland and I would have appreciated it more if there were more toppings / it was less noodle heavy (but, again, it was made GF so maybe they left items out of it?). All around a great addition to the vegan food scene, just still leaves something to be desired.
A very underrated vegan sushi place in Denver. This is one of the best Japanese food I have had in the US. Their place is quite small and understaffed for large groups. They take more time to serve. We ordered a variety of sushis and Ramen. Their Ramen is extremely delicious and feels like a hug in a bowl. We came to this place twice just for the Ramen. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for some vegetarian/vegan food when you're in Denver.
I have been ordering from here since before they had a brink and mortar location. I have tried a lot of things and everything I have tried has been delicious. I really loved sushi before I went vegan so Wellness has been a real treat for me. Last time I visited had the All Krab Oshi and the Love in the Endo roll. I especially liked the Endo Roll with the mango on it. I ordered from the kiosk and I got my food really quickly. I wish I lived closer so I could eat here more often.
One of my favorite vegan restaurants in Denver. I've been buying Wellness Sushi ever since the days when they were just grab-n-go at Nooch. Then they opened a cute little hole-in-the-wall restaurant on Colfax. I don't go there as often as I should! But I'm always craving it, so we went there today for a birthday lunch. We ordered two rolls we've never tried: "Love in the Edo" and "Ebi Tempura" along with a bowl of "W's Tonkotsu" ramen. I've never had a creamy ramen before--I've been missing out. The ramen was soooo good! It even rivals the vegan ramen I had at Uncle. And of course the sushi was impeccable. I'm glad I branched out from the Krunchy Krab roll and tried some new things. Next time I'll try some aburi oshi...
Stopped by on a Saturday early afternoon. It wasn't busy and there were plenty of tables available. You order at the counter and then they bring your food out to you. The service was very friendly. They gave us plenty of time to check out the menu without any pressure we ordered the spicy tonkotsu and spicy flamingo. The ramen was so filling we had to take the roll to go!
Awesome sushi place Tried flamingo sushi Ebi tempura sushi Very polite staff, underrated place
I googled random sushi places in the area prior to visiting the museum and found this. I didn't realize it was a vegan sushi place until we arrived. It was very interesting. We ordered the Tokyo drift roll, sea breeze onigiri, and shitake mushroom stuffed tofu at the kiosk machine and input a table number, then tray was delivered to us. Everything was good, the shitake mushroom stuffed tofu was my favorite, tasted like one of my mom's dish. Although this is a "fast food" vibe; the food was healthy and gave us the satisfaction of not being bloated afterwards. Definitely recommends to everyone!

Came here on a cold Thursday night and had a great experience! There's plenty of seating, both booth/tables and high top / bar seating. There's a self-serve water station, which I love because I drink a lot of water and hate asking to get my drink refilled. I love spicy so of course I had to get the W's Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen! It was really good. That broth is phenomenal and made it so easy for me to completely finish my plate. I would've liked the option to add an egg or have braised pork slices, but I did enjoy the ground pork. Definitely looking forward to exploring the rest of the menu! read more

Beyond words, best vegan sushi spot! How did I not know about this sooner. I can't do it justice here you just have to try it for yourself. Friendly staff, calm ambiance, what more could you ask for. I really liked the spicy tuna roll and the gyoza, the onigir w tofu is a must try as well. read more

Wow! I have been wanting to visit Wellness Sushi for ages, and I was not disappointed! I can safely say this is among the best sushi I've ever eaten. And it's 100% vegan! There were only a few gluten free options, so I'd love to see more of those. I do plan to come back to try more sushi and the gluten free ramen. Amazing! read more

Absolutely delicious and the fact that it's vegan is just insane. We had the smoky sake roll and the ohnagi oshi. Both were so tasty and the textures were amazing for not being real fish. Came in on a Wednesday night and it was pretty empty in there but they were working on some to-go orders. Floors were a little sticky and tables could be cleaned better but otherwise a good experience! I'm curious to try their vegan ramen. read more
I've had vegan sushi in LA and Hawaii and this is the fastest set I've ever had! The gluten free ramen noodles were delicious and the vegan sushi is so flavorful that my meat eating spouse was fully satisfied. I want the eel sauce on everything I eat! The beef donburi was my spouses favorite dish and the charred "meat" smelled amazing!! We ordered this through delivery and it held up fantastically. The only thing is that I would appreciate better gluten free labeling- I usually turn to vegan or inclusive restaurants like this to be allergy friendly but labeling is really important! read more
So I'm not vegan but I have been trying some of Yelp's Top 100 list if I end up visiting a certain city on my normal travels. I stopped in and ordered an Ebi Tempura Roll to go. OH. MY. I feel like I could be vegan and just eat this - I'd be absolutely happy with that! I sometimes lean on the picky side of eating but this could have fooled me. Whatever they used as the "shrimp tempura" was great and I would definitely order it again. Staff were friendly and service was quick. I would say though, I ordered online and it gave me a pick up time but I got a text about 20 min sooner than that, saying it was ready but I wasn't planning until arriving just before the ETA. I just get a little cautious of my food waiting so long so that was a little off putting. Other than that, would probably return on my next Denver trip! read more
I love love love this place. I am not even a vegan eater but this place just hits the spot so I keep coming back! I love that it's so close to me. My go to takeout spot when I'm craving sushi. You can't even tell it's vegan. I LOVE the Oshi dishes & the hot flamingo roll. read more
Wellness Sushi has been on my top list so long, and beyond happy that I finally got to visit it is extremely casual with an extensive all-vegan menu. I wanted to try as much as possible, so we got a seaweed salad, gyoza, a sushi roll (Tokyo drift roll), teriyaki beef onigiri, and the tamago natto oshi. It was so much food and so delicious. My favorite was the roll, but you can't go wrong with anything. You order at a kiosk and it all comes out pretty fast. Would love to go back to try more! read more

This spot is really tasty for vegans and non-vegans alike. If you're not aware, wellness sushi is a totally vegan sushi/Japanese spot on Colfax. I'm an omnivore and came with a vegan friend. I ordered tantanmen soup and fried tofu onigiri. I came on a weekday evening and it wasn't too busy. There was ample seating and a cashier was ready to take our order. The stand out for me was the tantanmen (tan tan ramen). The broth was rich and spiced perfectly. It came with tasty meatless crumbles, and a whole lot of vegetables. You wouldn't be able to tell this was meat free. The fried tofu onigiri was great as well! It had vegan spam, which tasted like the real thing. It's nice to see more vegan options pop up in Denver. This is a great spot for lunch, or a casual dinner. There are gluten-free and soy free options. Check out the menu online! I'll definitely be back. read more

Vegan sushi?! I absolutely love the options at wellness sushi! For a long time I would get the sushi delivered to Colorado Springs and it was such an amazing option! This time I got to stop in and that was so nice! The menu is awesome, so many options and I love the gf options as well! The service is so great! It's in such a good location when in Denver! Love it so much. read more
I stopped in on a Friday afternoon to order carry-out and I was surprised to find it totally empty. The ambiance is bright and fresh, and the service is counter-style. The workers were patient and friendly as I waffled between options on their extensive menu. I ended up ordering W's Spicy Tonkatsu and 2 rolls--the Fiery Philly and Love in the Edo. The ramen wasn't very spicy but it was flavorful and delicious. I also loved the rolls, especially Love in the Edo, that teriyaki beef is so savory and chewy. My only complaint is that some of the mango on the Fiery Philly was kinda grey and mushy--not very fresh. But the roll itself was tasty! I'm psyched whenever I can eat vegan Japanese food that's this creative and delicious. I'm just bummed I didn't get to try the onigiri or dessert. Guess I'll just have to come back! read more

Although I love sushi with fish, I don't always trust it so saw some good reviews for wellness sushi and decided to try it. Got the smoky sake roll and royal potato roll. It can be heard to make vegan food taste good but Wellness Sushi does not disappoint! Both of my rolls were delish and will be coming back again! read more

Are there options for someone with celiac disease? Is the tempora, soy sauce, imitation crab, etc. gluten-free?
Yes the GF ones are marked
I have a peanut and treenut allergy. Besides the items that explicitly say they have peanut butter, are there any other items that contain peanuts or treenuts in them?
Why are they closed?
Their Instagram page shows open but in a temporary space 1120 Yosemite st, aurora
Do they have anything that's gluten free?
That should be an easy answer because they are rice based dishes, but the soy sauce makes for the challenge.... I do recall a variety of soy sauces at the location, and our entire meal was fresh so I would bet they can make gluten-free dishes.
