Kawa Ni

If you’re juggling to go here over other places in Denver, stop, go here. Service was excellent, The bartenders were attentive and warm. The food was top tier, I highly recommend getting the addictive cabbage to start, it was a show stealer for me. It had so many flavors without being over done. 10/10 will be back!

Wanted to try some pretty good ramen since we don’t have a lot local where we normally live. Glad we came! We started with the shashito peppers and spicy dumplings, both were incredible! Lots of flavor and not too much spice on either. I go the 50/50 ramen my wife got the miso flavored one. Mine was very well made. Just the perfect amount of spice in the broth and the chasu was perfectly cooked and tasted great. It absolutely reminded me of the same ramen I ate in Japan many times. Her miso ramen was good but I found it to be a little flavorless, but I did try it after mine so it could’ve just been mine had much more flavor. All in all though this place was great would definitely come again and the staff was extremely helpful and nice. Very pleasant experience.

We're huge foodies and we fell in love with izakayas in Japan when we visited. I wish we remembered the name of our server. She was amazing. She guided us through the whole menu. We did about five dishes which was more than enough. I started with the Hokkaido leaves cocktail, which, as a whiskey lover, was one of the best craft cocktails I've had in a long time. The tofu starter was wonderful, as was this sashimi dish. Not one dish disappointed. The atmosphere was vibrant and on point for an izakaya. Go enjoy!

I went to Kawa Ni during my latest trip to Denver thanks to a friend’s recommendation and it did not disappoint! My favorite dishes were by far the red curry onigiri with its crispy rice and amazingly balanced sauce. Don’t skip the addictive cabbage either, it lives up to its name and provides a good “cool down” between spicier dishes :) I don’t know about the men’s but for the ladie’s, you’ll get a nice surprise in the bathroom: heated seats!
