  • Hot spot
Japango, set in a historic building just west of Broadway on the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, CO, offers a dynamic combination of traditional and contemporary Japanese cuisine. Guests will enjoy a relaxed experience in an award winning space designed by nationally acclaimed architect, Scott Rodwin.

    Our waiter was fabulous so service was excellent. The sushi rolls were expensive with very little sushi ( fish ) in the rolls. They were creative and somewhat tasty, but tiny pieces of fish in each piece.

    A very relaxed experience made possible by friendly staff, a comfortable atmosphere, and delicious sushi options! We had a few zero proof drinks that were also well concocted, not just juice and seltzer. Never felt rushed; perfect place to talk, eat, and enjoy!
