For over 37 years, Sushi Den has been regarded as one of the premiere sushi and Japanese restaurants in the United States. Located in the historic Old South Pearl St. neighborhood in the heart of Denver, CO, the restaurant delivers consistently excellent cuisine made from the finest ingredients from around the world.

Master Chef Toshi Kizaki, the visionary behind Sushi Den, continually raises the bar & sets the standard for the restaurant’s high quality cuisine. Youngest brother, Koichi, lives in southern Japan where he makes daily trips to the fish market to purchase fish for the restaurant. The fish is dry iced and reaches the restaurant within 24 hours. Sushi Den’s mission is to maintain one of the nation’s top sushi restaurants through fresh ingredients, innovative, healthy dishes and exceptional service.

We utilize available seating at both Izakaya Den, our sister restaurant next door, and Sushi Den for all reservations through the Sushi Den portal on

    The freshest fish we have had in Denver. Excellent service, top notch. We had a few items that were head and shoulders above any sushi items we have ever had. Fun night. We will be back.

    Food was excellent as always. Services was fantastic! Our waiter Brad was so thoughtful - he noticed our kids love cherries in their drink and brought them extra! Will be back soon again!!

    Not sure why Sushi Den has such high ratings and reviews. Service is slow. The food is mediocre. Most of the staff seem very unhappy. If you want great sushi and excellent service go to Matsuhisa!

    It’s been 25 years since I’ve been to Sushi Den. They’re NOT just a sushi joint. The menu is extensive, as is their selections of Japanese liquors and sakis. I am a gin drinker and enjoyed trying out four different Japanese gins. Our waiter guided us through several different courses of small plates, and all were exceptional. The atmosphere and ambience were great. Overall a wonderful date night celebrating our anniversary.

    All items were delicious from the apps, to the cocktails to the sushi. Our server was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable on the menu. Prices are high but you get what you pay for. Fresh sushi!
