Matsuhisa Denver continues to raise the bar for upscale Japanese fare. Even on a takeout order, the experience felt refined, thoughtful, and first-class. I ordered the sashimi combo and was blown away by the quality and presentation. Brian, the GM, personally helped with recommendations and made sure everything was perfectly suited for a gluten-free and dairy-free meal — a level of care you can appreciate. Thanks to his recommendations, I added 2 standout pieces of mackerel: Aji and Saba, both incredibly fresh and beautifully balanced in flavor. The friendliness of the sushi counter chefs and the front desk team deserves a special mention — warm, welcoming, and truly passionate about what they do. Even picking up takeout felt like stepping into a luxury dining experience. I’ve dined in before and the environment is just as impressive: elegant, serene, and buzzing with culinary artistry. Matsuhisa sets the gold standard for Japanese cuisine in Denver. Good to knows: • Amazing for dietary accommodations • Staff genuinely care about the guest experience • High-end quality that still feels approachable • Perfect for a special night in or an unforgettable dine-in experience A must-try if you’re anywhere near Denver. This place is simply next level. 🍣✨

My girlfriend and I visited for New Years Eve, and our server - Sam - led us through an omakase dinner with wine pairings. It was unquestionably one of the greatest meals we have ever had! Unbelievable food, and perfect wine pairings! Sam was incredible, and everyone treated us extremely well. We cannot wait to come back for another fantastic experience!

What an experience. We were planning to do the set chefs omakase but our waitress talked us into a custom one created by her and wow!! So incredibly amazing. From the get-go Erica, our waitress, was warm and knowledgeable and made it such an adventure for us, she was really intuitive on what we were looking for and we couldn’t be happier. The food was absolutely delicious, if you have the chance, and are open-minded to try new food, we highly recommend trying the omakase.
