Food quality wos "good" (not outstanding). TOO many menus from which to choose! Sadly, Izakaya and Sushi Den are a victim of their own success in an otherwise boring bland restaurant market.

Always love Izakaya ..biggest issue ?they are confused about their own branding ..is it also becoming the sushi den?..even the server started with "welcome to the sushi den" and if this is actually a strategy for new name recognition ..not working ..

Izakaya and Sushi Den are sister restaurants -- I have loved the Sushi Den restaurants since I arrived in Denver since 2003 -- pre-concert, birthdays, celebrations, business meetings and introducing friends to the Den. It is a special place for me and a lot of Denverites....
