Went to Izu-Sushi on a weekday evening and got seated right away since it wasn’t busy. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and has a nice atmosphere. They have a great selection of sushi and drinks, and everything we tried was fresh and tasty. The sushi was solid, but the fried rice was the standout. Service was great and our waiter was very attentive (though we were the only ones there). Prices are about average for the area. Overall, a great spot for sushi in Denver and worth checking out.

We ordered delivery via Uber eats. We paid $50 for what was supposed to be three rolls and a hand sushi. And they barely gave you anything. All the food fit loosely in two of the single serve sushi boxes like you get with sushi from the super market. Very disappointed. The flavors were very mid in my opinion. I would have rather sled bought sushi from a supermarket than here. I would find another sushi spot in my opinion.

This is the best hidden gem for sushi in Denver. I come in here as much as I can and show my friends this place every time we talk about having sushi. The server William is the absolute man, is super friendly and always provides 5 star service. Izu will always be my favorite!

I can’t believe I found this place two months before I moving out of the area!! I absolutely love the staff here and the sushi, chef, and the designs of the sushi! They really take pride in making sushi and creating the sushi platters! The first time we went, was on New Year’s Day, and they gave us a discount for being the first customers of the year. They always remember me are always so kind and this is a very special place in my book..
