Banzai is hands down the best sushi restaurant in Denver—nothing else even comes close. The fish is always incredibly fresh, and the menu has something for everyone: hand rolls, traditional sushi, poke, and great vegetarian options. We’ve tried nearly 50 sushi spots across Northern Colorado, and everything else feels mediocre in comparison. The service is consistently kind, engaging, and genuinely friendly. Banzai is our go-to, and we can’t recommend it enough!

We had a variety of pizzas and all were good, not great. Very little red sauce but adequate amount of toppings. One of our group had the Alfredo chicken broccoli pasta and it was very good. The garlic knots were over baked—some burned brown. Service was very good.

The waitress, as well as the manager were outstanding. The waitress continued to engage with us, make sure that we were taken care of, and even bring us a special treats for our anniversary. We got there later. And by the time it was dessert time it was about 30 minutes after closing. She offered all the dessert options, including the one that is made to order and would take about 25 to 30 minutes. We weren’t treated as if we were Keeping them, and it was very refreshing. I would highly recommend the Denver aquarium restaurant!
