Blue Sushi Sake Grill

The food was really good but the service was super slow. Our server was nice but I just think they were super busy. I don’t mind the service fee for staff at all but the credit card fee seems over the top to me. Everywhere else pays the fees and doesn’t put it on their guests. Maybe you could incentivize cash or debit with a discount? That would go over better to me personally. Instead of adding the service fee for your staff, why not just increase your prices and put the margins towards that same cause? A lot of restaurants do that and it goes over better with guests. TL;DR: Happy hour prices were great. Food was great. Service was friendly but slow. Credit card fees are too much.

Didn't think sushi would be first thing I got on trip to Denver but turned out to be a great idea! They've got a whole vegan sushi menu that was really well done, inexpensive, and delicious. I got the Thai Hippie roll - it was plated well, had great flavor, and lots of good toppings to add depth to the dish. The Busch NA tasted just as bad as it should and I loved finding it there to add to my NA list. Didn't get a photo of this but they also have a legit fish tank above the bar that was great to watch while eating.

Came here for a date night on a Sunday. They have happy hour ALL day which is neat! We got the lettuce wraps the mango crab ragoons the crispy rice and the hawiian roll. Drinks were tasty along with the food. Service was alittle slow but good. Overall would come back again! The vibes were casual!

Thought this place was excellent as we went for happy hour on a Sunday. Out of the rolls we got, my favorite were the Lion King and the Hawaiian. I got a margarita which was also made properly and my boyfriend got the sangria which was really good. Other memorable mentions were the truffle sashimi and the mango crab rangoons. Will definitely be back!

I've been looking for a perfect lunch sushi spot in downtown, and this is it! The happy hour deals were fantastic. I got the Hawaiian roll and it was absolutely delicious! The crunch red was also yummy. I will be returning for the Hawaiian roll for sure. Highly recommend!

I had the absolute greatest time here! My partner and I were so glad we decided on Blue Sushi Sake Grill👌🏾 Not only was the food and company great but our server Carrie was just the BEST 💯 We were sat at a long table next to some strangers which did not end up being a problem at all. They actually recommended a few items off the menu which was super helpful. I always love trying shishito peppers anywhere I go and I have to say these were some pretty damn good shishito peppers. We were strongly encouraged to get the Cherry Bomb 🍒 💣 I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! We got two flights of sake and we were having such a good time I didn’t get to take picture of all our sushi. This place is a little expensive for our wallets but it was absolutely worth it (plus if we didn’t get drinks it would’ve been totally fine. Unfortunately we missed happy hour but they do have a happy hour menu! We will 1000% be coming back 😄 We came back, ordered more, and had just as good of an experience. We were lucky enough to be seated in Carrie’s section again and had just as amazing of a time as done so previously!

Absolutely incredible! Staff was amazing! Our server was so welcoming and helpful! She clarified the menu right away, help us make decisions on what to get and check on us often! If I could remember her name, I would list it. She needs a raise! We were there Sept 11 around 1p on the bar side 😁 Beautiful restaurant! Amazing sushi!

The 16th Street Mall is BACK! and better than ever! A great choice for dining delight is Blue Sushi Sake Grill. I've been intending to try this place, and today, as the free mall-shuttle stopped in front, i decided, "Today is the day." What a good decision! The host pleasantly accommodated my wish to be seated outside (perfect for people-watching). The attentive waiter (Tim) clearly loves his job -- he was very familiar with the menu, and made valuable suggestions. But it's the delectable food that will make Blue Sushi your go-to for Japanese Fusion cuisine. Honestly, the creative blends of flavors is astonishing. I suggest a multi-dish approach in order to experience that flair. I started with one of their 'Specialty Sashimi' offerings, Tuna Tataki. Oh, Lord! the balance of flavors and textures was simply perfect! VERY highly recommended. No photo, but a similar presentation to their Truffle Salmon (much saltier, and without a pepper-crust). Another winner is from the 'Share Plate' section, Crispy Brussels Sprouts. You may have had a dish with this name at other restaurants, but nowhere else is like this version or even close to as palate-pleasing! Again, it's the unique blend of flavors and textures that makes it a win. I also ordered the garlic version of Charred Edamame. Waiter Tim thoughtfully provided an empty bowl for 'leavings', and i found that the way to enjoy these salty/spicy legumes is by dragging the whole pod through your teeth to drag out the beans inside. Going to Blue Sushi Sake Grill was a foodie-pleasing experience. Do try it!

The atmosphere was cool - they dim the lights to a dark red toward the beginning of the dinner shift. I got miso soup - classic. The spicy tuna crispy rice was also standard, along with their rolls. I was say that the food lacked a little bit of flavor, creativity, and innovation. Not the best.

this is a great spot for sushi near union station... nicely decorated, fish tanks, and plenty of seating. the food is wonderful, and the menu is big, so lots to choose from. service is speedy and respectful.

I came here with a group for their Sunday happy hour. We had a reservation and were seated right away. Our server was very attentive. We got a variety of different food and drinks and I think everyone enjoyed what they got. They do add a 3% employee wellness fee to the bill plus an additional 1.5% if you use a credit card.

What can be more convenient than a 4+ Yelp rated sushi place within walking distance of the Crawford. So this is our dinner spot before the game. Old industrial type building with open ceiling and accompanying plumbing. Quickly seated and ready to order. Hawaiian, Lion King & South Pacific rolls ordered. They were delivered quickly with the Hawaiian Roll delivered on a separate plate as requested there's mango in this one and mango allergy at the table. All 3 rolls were excellent, the rice was not dry and ingredients were fresh. Bonus - low sodium soy sauce was present on all tables. I didn't have to ask for it. Prices were reasonable, plus we were there during happy hours so prices were even better. For us the 3 rolls were plenty, we weren't hungry when we left. If you're so inclined there is also a large vegan menu and a full bar

Blue Sushi Sake Grill is a good place for more reasonably priced sushi in downtown Denver. Our server was friendly and the seafood was fresh. Their happy hour provides a good deal on their rolls and drinks. The restaurant has a modern yet trendy vibe which includes a fish tank. I recommend if you are in the area!

Blue is always an excellent time. They have specials and maki that are interesting but still let the fish be the star. My favorite dish is the itchy salmon. The service was great, attentive but not overbearing. The kitchen was running a little bit slow (7:30 on a Friday) some dishes coming out very quickly and others slowly, but we were there to catch up with friends so it wasn't a problem. We were a group of four sitting at a sort of odd semi circle booth.small enough that everyone's knees were bumping each other. The meal isn't cheap, but can honestly say that we enjoyed our drinks and drinks very single dish we tried. The other notable standouts include the sake menu and a significantly number of vegan maki. They also just changed their happy hour times so the windows are pretty generous.

They have a giant vegan menu! The vegan rolls are so good! Are server was so kind! Cute place, I believe they have a patio as well! If you are vegan you have to check this place out

Made a reservation for 3 at 7:45 pm today. Upon walking in I just had a feeling this was not gonna be a good night. Despite a restaurant that was 20-30% full the hostess was rushing around, unfriendly, and generally looked pressed. We waited about 5-10 minutes for our table and she brought us there, put the menus down and walked off. Okay whatever. Our server comes over pretty fast and asks for drinks. No hi, welcome, I'm so and so, have you been here before. They have a pretty extensive drink menu (front and back of a menu) so I said I needed a few minutes. Didn't not seem to thrill her. She comes back and my friends give their order and I'm still debating- she looks more annoyed and walks off. When she drops their sake I order the dirty martini from their cocktail list, and we get the crab rangoons. She brings my martini and I order the crispy rice and two rolls, my friend gets a roll, but the third friend says I'm not ordering anything and she just looks at her and goes "oh okay liquid diet". Not in a fun, jokey way like we had camaraderie, which we don't because you have treated us like we were the biggest annoyance since we sat down. Crispy rice comes. And then.....the waiting begins. I took a photo of my crispy rice at 8:12 pm. I then took the photo of my rolls at....8:44 pm. It took 32 minutes for three rolls from the traditional roll menu, not anything crazy, to come out. In that time of 33 minutes we had: no updates on food, no check in, and all our drinks sat empty and we were never asked if we wanted more. I finally flagged her down and she goes "do you need something?". Ummmmm yes actually. I said just wondering about rolls? And she snaps, they're coming! Funnily enough, within 45 seconds of me asking, she comes walking out with our food. She drops it and leaves. Never asked us again if we ever wanted more drinks, how the food was, dessert- nothing. When she took our empty plates we asked for the check, paid and left and she just stared at us like we were the worst table of her career the entire time she ran our cards. I was a server for five years. I was never rude or snappy. Her behavior was unacceptable and for no reason. My friends? Also my co workers. Our dinner was being expensed. We could have dropped $200 or more if she was just nice. I'll never understand what we did to annoy her so badly. On top of it- I found the food mid as hell. Everything is imitation crab, the crispy rice was mostly rice, 4 slivers for $14, and my rolls looked like grocery store rolls with tiny slivers of fish in them that so couldn't even taste (and I ordered simple rolls like yellowtail). My martini was served so dirty it was green and had been shaken so much it was covered in ice crystals (which melt and dilute the drink, although I was grateful in this case bc it took a slight edge off all the salt). When I leave paying $60 for just myself for three things- I expect them taste well and be made with quality Overall, never coming back when there are so many other places to try. Leila, thanks for making us feel unwelcome and like we were a nuisance for the entire night!

This place is always a must whenever I'm in a city that has one. So happy to one finally coming to Phoenix. They never disappoint. We had a couple of roles and some Crab puffs, all three were perfectly delicious. Definitely put it on your list if you've never tried it

We gave Blue Sushi another shot, and thank goodness we did. After a truly bizarre first visit, this weekend was a total redemption arc. It turns out the first time was just a fluke, or maybe the universe was testing us. This time, the food was incredible, but the real MVP was our server, Carrie. I was meeting my partner's five closest friends for the first time, which is basically a high-stakes job interview. Carrie, bless her soul, was a hilarious wing-woman who somehow knew exactly when to bring more sake and when to change the subject. She set the tone, and for that, I am eternally grateful. Blue Sushi is officially back on our list, and we'll be requesting Carrie every single time. P.S. His friends all approved.

Came here on a Wednesday afternoon and it was not too busy; we got seated right away. We came during happy hour which was a big plus as the normal menu did seem a bit pricey. We ordered: Spicy Edamame 8/10 Crispy Rice 7/10 (sitting in salty soy sauce) Ceviche 8/10 Dragon Fruit Lemonade 8/10 Spicy Sake roll 8/10 Cabo roll 8/10 Yellowtail Serrano 8/10 Truffle Salmon 8/10 Itchy Salmon 6/10 (sitting in salty soy sauce) Lion King roll 8/10 Brussels Sprouts 10/10!! So good we ordered another after we finished Cherry Bomb 8/10 House Salad 7/10 Wish for some of the dishes they did not have them sitting in soy sauce as it made them too salty and overpowered any other flavors. Service was kind and attentive but they do charge a 3% employee wellness fee? And their automatic tip options r 20, 22, 25% which I thought was quite high given the automatic fee. Clean restaurant with a relaxed ambiance.

We came here for Happy Hour. Everything was delicious except for the ceviche. Would recommend skipping it as it doesn't have much flavor at all. The spicy and charred edamame was surprisingly so good! As for the sushi, it was pretty standard, but was fresh and yummy.

After coming back from the mountains, my friend and I found this place outside of the Union Station ( a few blocks or so). The lightning inside was cool, dark blue, and intimate. We tried some sushi rolls and drinks from their happy hour. I tried a vegan sushi and it was different, I'll say that. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the drink more.

Yummy sushi! My only complaint is that it was really slow, but that's okay it was busy. The sushi was good!

Who doesn't enjoy a good lunch special and all day Sunday Happy Hour? We live down the street from Blue and it is our go to when we are in the mood for Sushi. The fish is always fresh and we have always had good service whether it is during the lunch rush or on a Sunday post a home football game. They have a great selection of cocktails, sake, and beer. The menu has many different soups, salad, and sushi. The crab soup is a must! I also enjoy the location and the fish tanks behind the bar add to the ambiance.

Nice happy hour menu. Friendly staff. I like the details such as the chopsticks they use and how they're not the prickly ones lol Overall good vibes/ambiance and decent food About $22 for two items: the truffle salmon and tidal wave roll. It was a good amount of food just for myself Had a layover and was craving sushi close to union station and this hit the spot

My husband and I grabbed dinner here after our flight landed and we wanted to avoid rush hour traffic. We were starving and ordered the ceviche S an app and it came out very fast which we were super grateful for! It was good but I wish they gave more wonton chips. The chips also broke easily which made it difficult to eat at times. For sushi we ordered the Thriller and the Spanish Fly. Both were SO good, the Thriller was our favorite though. Neither of us felt full when we were finished though, so I think we could have split a 3rd roll. Our server was great, she was happy to give recommendations.

One of my favorite sushi places in Denver! Great happy hour! Great location! Great atmosphere, food, cocktails, and service! The restaurant has a spacious dining area as well as cocktail and sushi bar seating. Aesthetically speaking, Blue is modern, upscale casual, and gives authentic vibes for a sushi and saki establishment. Restaurant is creatively and beautifully decorated with aquariums, Japanese culture pieces, and even an airplane wing! My favorite cocktails are the samurai sakatini, espresso martini, and the coconut breezy! All cocktails are handcrafted, beautifully presented, refreshing, and get the job done, if you know what I mean! Blue also has great mocktails that I have also enjoyed. The hot popper is my favorite sushi roll at Blue! Love it every time! Other favorites among the food include the mango crab rangoon, the hotel Cali roll, the tidal wave roll, and the lion king roll! Service has always been on point! Friendly and attentive! Today, we sat at the bar and bartender, Jacob H took great care of us! Always look forward to my next visit!

Blue Sushi Sake Grill excels at the presentation of their dishes as well as service while the flavor is descent enough for the high prices of the items. Highlight of the meal was the sake flight. We got both sake flights and they both contained 3 different sakes to try which was very enjoyable to find a sake I really liked as well as some less desirable ones. The value was also really good at $13 and $15 for the two flights. The sushi itself was quite average and quite expensive. I got the madai sashimi and the green eggs and Hama which were nothing special. For dessert got the mochi ice cream with the black sesame, matcha, lychee, and the special. The black sesame was probably my favorite of the bunch but I don't know if I would order it again as the mochi wasn't that great. The lighting was pretty bad at our spot but it didn't ruin the experience. Overall great place for sake and descent enough sushi.

Had a really awesome experience at Blue Sushi Sake Grill! Our waitress, Ashton, was really knowledgeable about the menu and gave us great tips and advice when ordering our food. The Coconut Crab Soup and Beef Hot Rock were both delicious and their espresso martini was the perfect amount of creaminess to coffee ratio. The sushi was also incredible - highly recommend the Green Eggs and Hama. The ambiance was also perfect for a date night experience. There was also tons of seating. Will definitely be going back soon!

Had such a great experience here! We had a reservation for Sunday afternoon for four people, and the restaurant was very accommodating, allowing us to push it back by half an hour. When we got there, we were sat instantly and our server (i can't remember her name-maybe Abby?) was super attentive and sweet. We loved the all day happy hour, it had some of the best rolls and appetizers, as well as all their best drinks. We tried the blue mule which was super yummy as well as the crispy, brussels sprouts, Cucumber Sunomono, spicy charred garlic edamame and miso soup. The soup was just OK but the cucumbers and brussels sprouts were delicious. To eat, we tried a number of different roles, including the Spanish fly, Amazon, lion king, Crunchy LA and Philadelphia. The best one by far was the lion King, it had a taste of smoky flavor in the salmon that reminded me of an Omakase dish. The Amazon roll was also really good, the chimichurri really elevated it. I wasn't as big of a fan of the Spanish fly roll but it's nice to try different options to learn what we like for next time. The happy hour prices are super reasonable, and overall the value was definitely there Can't wait to come back !

One of the better known sushi spots along the 16th Street was the Omaha sushi chain, Blue Sushi Sake Grill. It was at a convenient location just steps away from the Union Station. They did not have ramen, bowls or poke, but had a wide variety of maki, nigiri and a few sashimi. Many of their maki and nigiri were house specialties, unique in taste and not available in other places. One thing worth mentioning was they had a wide selection of vegan menu, including soup, rice cake, maki and nigiri. The restaurant was modern with table and bar seating and had Japanese scene decorations throughout. The service was attentive but not over bothering. Ordered the Yellowtail Serrano (yellowtail sashimi with cilantro, serrano and ponzu sauce), the Lion King (maki with crab, spicy salmon, avocado, cucumber), Roja (maki with tuna, yellowtail, avocado, cucumber and soy paper wrap), and miso soup. The sashimi was very fresh and matched perfectly with the ponzu sauce. The makis were one of the king, prepared well and very tasty.

Had the Lion King--oh, so yum! Spicy sake? Bring me some! Abby's skills were next to none, Her marg was fire, perfectly spun. Cucumber, jalapeño heat, Not too sweet--just pure elite!

We discovered Blue Sushi and Sake Grill through the InKind app and decided to give it a try--easily one of the best sushi restaurants we've visited in a long time! We sat in a booth in the Sake Lounge, which was cozy and comfortable, and I loved watching the tropical fish swim in the aquarium above the bar--a fun and relaxing touch. We arrived during happy hour, and their happy hour menu is impressively extensive. We started with miso soup and a house salad featuring an incredible honey-sesame dressing. From there, we shared three rolls and the Cherry Bomb and Blue Kani--everything was inventive and delicious. The Tidal Wave Roll, Hawaii Roll, and Crunchy Red Roll each had unique, bold flavors, and the Cherry Bomb, with its tuna sashimi on top of crispy tempura rice, was a standout! Though I'm not usually a fan of tofu, the Blue Kani--tempura tofu pockets filled with spicy crab mix and drizzled with eel sauce--was surprisingly amazing, and my husband loved it. Our server, Abby, was attentive and ensured our food arrived promptly. When we mentioned my husband's nut allergy, the general manager personally came over to confirm that everything being prepared was safe for him--a thoughtful and reassuring gesture. I also appreciated that they have a conscious earth approach where all their fish is "Responsibly caught, humanely raised and mindful of earth". We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will definitely be returning!

Couldn't accept a walk in or a reservation!? With 15 tables available to the right because your servers are "overwhelmed " that Host needs to go she's the worst and has caused you to lose 5 people's business for life

Was in town and this place really had a good ambience as well as good sushi. Had a couple rolls and their pepper appetizer.

Love this place. Inside is really well set up and a lot spacious than what you can see outside. Wait staff was very professional and patient with the 3 boys we had that night. I recommend getting there for happy hour. Great prices and amazing sushi! Recommend the Cabo and Crunchy roll. However, the hot popper is also good if you like a little kick.

We made a reservation last night but we could have easily got in without one. The service was quick, we were in and out in an hour! But if you get drinks and order slowly you could stay for a longer dinner. The rolls we got were great- recommended by the waiter who was really nice! I loved that they put a cucumber slice in the water. Super cute restaurant, it had a fish tank which was fun and a decent size bar!

Stopped in for a late lunch and had a great experience!! Britanny was my bartender providing a great experience and the food was prepared well for the price point!!

Stopped by this spot because I was craving sushi..our "dinners before just didn't hit the spot. I was very happy we got to enjoy some happy hour items because they were all delicious. We shared the charred edamame. I want to say we ordered the spicy and ended up with the salty, which still worked out for us. It was absolutely delicious. I wasn't sure what to expect with the charred, but it was as 10/10. I want to say I got the Lion King roll and a Cali roll. I love me a good saucy roll. I also loved that I could enjoy a sushi roll and watch the game. Overall, experience was 10/10.

Always, always so amazing. I've tried sushi from so many different places and none compare Blue. Great, fast service and fresh food. Lively place, I would love to come here even for just a drink!

Located in downtown Denver, you will most likely have to pay for parking. We went on Sunday as they have happy hour from 12:00 pm till 9:00 pm. We didn't have a reservation, but luckily the place wasn't too crowded. However, they may have been short staff because our waiter really struggle to get us and the other tables around us so we were doing a lot of waiting around. We got the shishito peppers and the crispy rice cake as appetizers. The shishito peppers were delicious but not enough to share with more than one person (about 10 of them) the crispy rice cakes looked delicious but they tasted average. Not much flavor. We then ordered from the happy hour menu- tidal wave, Cabo roll and hot popper. My favorite was the tidal wave! Giving it a 3 star as their happy menu is not very lucrative (you get about 2 or 3 dollars off) have been to the Kansas City location and it's worth going as they have items half price! We ended up paying individually for 2 appetizers and 3 roles between 2 people $48 plus tip. The service was also VERY slow for walking in on a snowy Sunday without a reservation

I have been going to this place for 10 years and it has always stayed steady with quality, service and pricing. We always sit at the bar. I used to enjoy watching House of the flying daggers on the giant screen above the bar, but that has since been removed and they have a beautiful fish tank there now that is soothing to watch while dining. The service is always on point. I was there last Saturday during happy hour (yes you read that right) and the bartender was an awesome guy and never let our drinks go empty. Food comes out quick and the their happy is legit! The food is also always fresh. yellowtail jalapeno is great deal and deliciously fresh fish. This place is definitely a great staple on 16th street. Keep up the great work guys!

We have been here a few times and this time we tried out a few new rolls. The lion king roll was phenomenal and my favorite for the night! Service was great and everything came out super fast and well presented so props to the chef. It's a nice and quiet restaurant so makes it easy to converse amongst your party.

Came here on a Sunday night and got to enjoy their happy hour menu (such a good deal on food and drinks)! I love the cocktail I ordered that came with popping boba! Their cocktails covered the taste of the alcohol nicely. Since it was happy hour, we ordered so much sushi. For being in Denver, the fish was great. It's nice that you can make reservations for this place. There's table and bar seating with different sport games playing

Blue Sushi absolutely exceeded expectations! Being from Florida, I wasn't planning on going to a sushi place in a landlocked state, but I'd read good things about Blue Sushi and my sushi craving got the best of me. We went without a reservation on a Thursday night and we're seated immediately at a table by the window. Because it wasn't super crowded, the ambiance was pleasant, quiet, and we spent a good part of the night watching and being mesmerized by the fish tank near the front of the restaurant. Our server Carrie was AMAZING. She was attentive, friendly, and super helpful in helping us decide what to order. Her eloquent descriptions of menu items were spot on and we couldn't help but try them out! They did not disappoint. We started with the Mango Crab Rangoon and the Crispy Rice. While I didn't taste much mango in the Rangoon, they were nice and crispy and served as a generous portion. Both were delicious, as were the Crispy Brussel Sprouts. The preparation of the brussels is very unique and the sauce they are tossed in is flavorful and not overpowering, highly recommend. They'll turn a Brussel Sprouts hater into a lover! The Shishito Peppers also came highly recommended, but we didn't end up ordering them. We also sampled some items from the raw bar, namely the Truffle Salmon, Tobiko, and the Black Tuna sashimi. The Black Tuna.... My mouth is still watering days later when I think about it. It's escolar (type of white fish, huge fan myself) cured in squid ink and soy. The cut of sashimi appears white with a black rim. The curing of the escolar added sooooo much flavor to an already hugely flavorful and buttery fish. A must if you're a sashimi lover. The rolls we sampled were the Amazon Roll and the Green Eggs & Hama. The chimichurri sauce added a unique element to the Amazon Roll, and the garlic ship on top of Green Eggs & Hama was a huge hit. It did make it pretty garlicky, which I loved, but be warned as it can be a pretty potent flavor and is out of the traditional flavor scheme of sushi. We ended our meal with a sampling of various mochi balls, cut in half so they were perfect to share for two. We got the seasonal flavor (one mixed berry & one Yuzu, whose flavor profile was perfectly described by Carrie), espresso, mango, matcha, & lychee. My favorites were the Yuzu (tangy, refreshing, citrus) and espresso. Perfect top off to an excellent sushi dinner. I would strongly recommend Blue Sushi for sushi-lovers. The service was excellent, and they have classic Japanese favorites as well as some interesting, less traditional preparations and rolls. I will definitely return the next time I'm in Denver!

We came here for our last night in Denver and ordered a Lion King roll, Hawaiian roll, and a spicy sake roll. Overall the meal was just okay. The Lion King was tasty but it was more sauce than sushi. The crab mix in the Hawaiian roll lacked flavor. We were misled by the Yelp check-in deal because it was not honored. I hope management will remove the deal from Yelp if it is no longer valid.

5-Stars just because of the plethora of vegan and vegetarian options! It was delicious.

Great sushi - was it my favorite? Probably not. But still really good. This place has great vibes and a nice fish tank at the top with cute fishes in it. I got 2 rolls and usually I don't even get close to finishing 2, but these ones I was fairly close with only 3 pieces being left! Service was exceptionally fast as well.

We just moved to Denver from San Diego. This is close to where we live and thought we would give it a try. Overall, an ok experience. $2 Oysters for HH are good and probably the best item on the menu. The rolls are just rolls, respectable but nothing special. On the positive side, we sat at the bar and the bartender was quite good at her job. We ordered a number of items to give the place a fair evaluation. There are too many other places for us to try that make it hard for us to say we would come back.

Brittany was phenomenal!!! Thank you all for making a birthday feel like we aren't over 30

We love coming here. This is our date-night go-to. The happy hour is great and we like the atmosphere on the bar side where we can just get a booth and just hang out. We usually make an appointment as it can get pretty crowded on a Friday night. Our favorites: *CRISPY BRUSSEL SPROUTS: We love the lemon miso sauce and earthiness of this dish. Great starter. *YELLOWTAIL w/ SERRANO CHILI: The butter-yness of the yellowtail and the kick of serrano is such a happy marriage. *CHERRY BOMB: Hands down our favorite, we get like 4 orders each (oink!). The tuna and serrano on top of the crispy rice tempura. Soo addicting, my mouth is watering just typing this... *FRIED BANANA with ICE CREAM: I mean, after all that food why not splurge on some ice cream, right? Hot, crispy friend banana with vanilla ice cream just oozing into your mouth. You're welcome. Love, love, love. Bring a friend, bring your family, just go!

We had some friends come into town and they suggested this place. Great location right near Union Station. The Espresso Martini was to die for and all food was amazing - one of the best sushi experiences we've had since moving to Denver! The vibe of the restaurant was a modern Japanese style and was very nice. Our waitress (Carrie or Keri? Not sure how she spells it) was very attentive and gave us many recommendations. We would definitely come back for an upscale sushi dining experience.

If you're looking for vegetarian friendly sushi this is the spot to go. They have so many options and not just basic avocado rolls, actual crafted dishes. They have a great happy hour if you want to try multiple things. The ambiance is pretty basic for downtown but it's clean and the service is good. Sometimes they have a wait but they will move through it quickly. I would give it 5 stars but my non-veg friends tend to not enjoy it as much so I guess the fresh fish option is good but not great.:

Had an absolutely fabulous time at Blue Sushi Happy Hour earlier this week. Got about 10 rolls, 3-4 appetizers, ice cream dessert and plenty of sake and beer for 5 people for under $250. It really is one of the best quality sushi happy hours in the city and the servers make sure you get all your food orders in before HH ends at 5:30. It's honestly spectacular. Highly recommend!!!

Glad my roommate got pics before we finished everything so fast! Can't recommend this place enough!! Service is always so polite & fast. We were just here Sunday and had to come back for the happy hour. Nothing beats the blue kani and cloud nine roll. Best sushi in denver for taste ambiance service and variety.

I love Blue Sushi's selection and happy hour! They have a huge menu with so many good options, including vegetarian sushi if you're looking for that. The service in here is good even when it's crowded as it can get especially during happy hour. I would easily visit again and try some new rolls!

After landing into town, decided to come here for a late lunch. We were just in time for their lunch happy hour. Plenty of items on the menu that could accommodate anyone. Check in on Yelp and received a free bowl of edamame. The waitress suggest getting it charred grilled and it was so good!! Ordered a few items off the menu. The chicken salad wrap was good and so were the salmon and tuna plates. The salmon skin roll was okay, wasn't that good. Restaurant was nice with a bar and plenty of tables. Food did take a while to come out. Service was good.
