A type of Japanese drinking establishment which also serves food to accompany the drinks. They are casual places for after-work drinking. "Izakaya" entered the English language by 1987. It is a compound word consisting of "i" (to stay) and "sakaya" (sake shop), indicating that izakaya originated from sake shops that allowed customers to sit on the premises and drink.

Food reminded me very much of the previous Domo restaurant. Northern Japanese warm earthy comfort food. The curry potatoes were delicious and the pork and garlic ramen 🍜 was the best ramen I’ve ever had. We had a pot of the matcha tea which brought everything together. Great ambience and a fun place for a date. Enjoy!

I have been here twice in the past month. Kawa Ni serves some of the best Asian food in Denver with exceptional service and unique, and delicious drinks. The butternut squash, Szechuan dumplings and pork belly ramen were highlights in a very good meal. Highly recommended!

Did not think the food was great and certainly not in line with the price point. Cocktails were great, as was the service and ambiance

The food was very good, service was great. The music was to loud, I struggled to hear our guest and noticed everyone had to increase their voices which made it even louder. We were in the 4 person table in the back corner so not sure if the acoustics in that corner were stronger. I noticed that when I went to the bathroom everyone was leaning towards each other to hear each other. Normally noise is not an issue for me, but for a Tuesday dinner…..a bit much. The buns were really good, wife loved the cabbage salad.
