    I've eaten ALOT of sushi in my life in many different places. This is by far THE best sushi I have ever eaten. It's fresh, creative, delectable and interesting. It is an adventure for the taste buds. I am impressed by the level of care and service that is consistently displayed in every interaction. If you are in Denver (I think they have one in Miami) make it a point to go here. Don't wait until the last minute. Weekend reservations are not easy. Also make sure you have a high limit credit card. It isn't inexpensive. It's worth every dollar.

    Another fabulous night at Culinary Dropout. We had our favorite booth, one of our favorite waitresses (Nester), and chatted with an upstanding manager (Mikah) and person. Our appetizer was delayed because of several parties, but our waitress ensured it was taken care of, and our favorite salads were delicious, just the way we love them. We had a great evening.
