Sushi Wave

This has got to be one of the biggest ironies in Denver. Sushi Wave's proximity to a dive bar (J.D.'s Bait Shop) and set back location in a strip mall on an extremely congested road east of I-25 make stop-overs highly unlikely. But stop-over they should. This is one of the best places for sushi around. The rolls are fresh like no others. And the simple rolls, like a yellow tail, are scrumpshessly packed full of of fish. The fancy rolls are really full of flavor and can almost taste creamy. The sashimi portions are significant and tasty and well-presented. Yes, the decor is blah. Yes, there are way too many signs telling you not to talk on your cell phone at the sushi bar. But there is always an open table and a quiet place to talk. And anyone who loves sushi goes or the food anyway, right? If you are looking for simply good sushi at very reasonable-for-Denver prices, this is your place. It's non-pretentious. t's fast enough that you don't get caught hungry. It's slow enough that it give you time to talk and sip your beer. If you order sashimi, it comes out in stages so you really get to enjoy your meal. Unfortunately the ponzu sauce comes in a soy sauce jar and you don't get any of those fabulous green onions, but are we really splitting hairs here?

Two words: LOVE IT!

Do the Sushi Wave!
