About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Hot spot
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

    Service… above and beyond! Elizabeth made a birthday an extra special occasion. Our sushi chef Chris was pumping out food like a pro but created a relaxed atmosphere that made us feel like he was our own personal itamae. Osaka Iburi Sockeye Salmon and Iburi Lobster were stars of the show, but every dish was executed BEAUTIFULLY and DELICIOUSLY.

    Sushi Den never disappoints!! Our server Alex was so knowledgeable and never steered us wrong. We loved all of the tasteful dishes, cocktails, and birthday dessert. The crispy rice and Buri tuna are must trys. This is the best sushi restaurant in Denver!
