10/10 ✨ I absolutely love this sushi spot. It’s become one of my local favorites. The service has always been fantastic. The Kenji Veggie Roll, Spicy Maki Roll, AAC Roll & their mussels are all amazing. The Kenji Veggie Roll has mango & cream cheese along with fresh veggies inside. The mussels are some of the best I’ve had in Colorado. The fish tank was a plus too and all of the fish were really cute. I live right around the corner so I will definitely keep coming back. Thanks Kenji Sushi!!

Kenji Sushi is amazing. The atmosphere is fresh & clean with gorgeous food, a fish tank for the littles or the folks with childlike wonder. The food is amazing and fresh and beautifully presented. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options- the Kenji Vegetarian Roll is fire 🔥 Don’t sleep on this place - if you’re in City Park give them a visit!

Their service is phenomenal and so is their food! We got the gyoza and crab rangoon appetizers and a mini party platter sushi boat. It was all so delicious and quick to come out. They even gave us a free slice of cake at the end, which was also great! We will definitely be returning 😊
