Sushi Ronin Denver - Sushi and Sake Bar

"Second time eating here--would definitely recommend! Lovely service, chefs, and environment. Will always recommend their Manhattan and of course, any of the chef specials! Looking forward to my next visit with chefs, Larry and Marin! Excited to try Omakase!"

"Visiting Denver from NYC, this was a really fun unique take on sushi. Marin did our omakase and it was a great dinner experience. Definitely different and innovative take on traditional sushi. All the fish was fresh. Expect innovation and you won’t be disappointed"

"Sushi was out of this world. Sat at the sushi bar and was amazed all night. Will definitely be coming back. Reservations needed. Apart of the denver passbook coupons as well."

"You can find this omakase experience in the Denver highlands... Sushi Ronin is a Japanese eatery & bar featuring artistic presentations of fresh fish in modern Asian style surroundings. We enjoyed omakase here for dinner & absolutely loved it. We arrived at Sushi Ronin and were seated at the sushi bar. Marin, Ethan, & Larry were the masters behind the sushi and it was awesome to see these sushi chefs at work. All three of them were so fun and attentive during our dinner service. Manager, Ida ensured our meal ran smoothly and checked in periodically. For cocktails I started with the seasonal, Pineapple Express made with vodka, gin, basil, simply syrup, & yuzhu. The Pineapple Express was vibrant green in color and refreshing in taste. For dinner we did the 'Ronin Omakase' which was the culinary experience left up to the chef. The omakase is always changing and is a dine-in only option. I highly recommend trusting the chef and partaking in omakase. Our omakase experience began with a palate cleanser - the Mandarin Elixir. The Chutoro Crudo was made with mid belly bluefin tuna, pomegranate zu, dragonfruit, golden beets, lemon zest, maldon salt, and micro chives. The dish itself was a gorgeous kaleidoscope of colors. The mid belly bluefin tuna offered a luxurious texture without being overly fatty. The smooth, buttery taste of the tuna went well with the sweet pop of the pomegranate and the mild earthiness of the golden beets. The Mukozuke was the Chef's choice sashimi accompanied by wasabi yuzhu, chive oil, chili crisp, rice puffs, chili threads, & pea shoots. The presentation of the Mukozuke was stunning. The sashimi was so fresh; I loved the texture variation of the smooth fish against the delicate crunch of the rice puffs. I enjoyed chilled sake with the rest of dinner. The Bluefin Tuna Flight included sashimi pieces from fatty to lean. The otoro tuna sashimi featured intense fat marbling which resulted in rich flavoring (far left). The leanest tuna was very low in fat and had a striking red color (far right). The Salmon Nigiri Flight included fresh Scottish salmon, New Zealand salmon, Tasmanian salmon, and seared Scottish salmon. The nigiri flight was exceptional. The New Zealand salmon was balanced and herbal. The Tasmanian was light & clean. The seared Scottish salmon was my favorite - it melted in my mouth with a gorgeous richness. The Canadian Crab sushi pieces were topped with black caviar & garlic butter. The lump crab was sweet with tender chew and the crown of black caviar really took this sushi piece to the next level. The Itovori, Threadfin Bream and Hiramasa, Greater Amberjack were served on ice. The Scallop nigiri was complemented by olive oil. The scallop was excellent - sweet & mild in flavor. The Godzilla roll was made with tempura shrimp, avocado, seared NY strip, and black garlic butter. Larry fired up this roll and we could see why it's one of Sushi Ronin's most popular. The Matcha Trifle was a Japanese take on Tiramisu - lovely in looks & taste."

"Came here on a date night and made reservations (do this on weekends, there was limited space) and was sat at the sushi bar. We ordered the yellowtail jalapeño, tuna collar, yellowtail roll, blue fin roll, waygu sushi, and the Mkay roll. On top of the food being absolutely delicious (yellowtail roll and Mkay blew us away), the service was incredible. We sat at the sushi bar and Chefs Johnny and Brian (I think, we had a bottle of wine), and our server, Peter, were attentive, friendly, hilarious, and accommodating. By far some of the best sushi I've had in Denver, we will most definitely be back."
