Sushi-rama Dtc/osaka Ramen - Denver

I absolutely love this place! Sushi served on a conveyor belt is such a brilliant idea. It's delicious and definitely worth it! Typically, you get two pieces of sushi per plate, and the prices vary depending on the color of the plate. Feel free to stack your plates and don’t hesitate to try something new, as each plate only costs between $2.75 and $4.75. They offer other dishes too, but the only other thing I've tried is my wife's donuts, which were fantastic as well.

We usually enjoy Sushi Rama, but this was our first visit to this location. We came for happy hour, and everything on the conveyor looked OLD—I'm talking more like gas station sushi than anything else. The avocado was a muddy brown and covered in spots, and the sauce had soaked into the rice. I tried some hamachi from the belt, but it was cut incorrectly and had a fishy taste. At that point, we decided to cash out after just a few plates and leave.

Kid-friendliness: It's a great place for kids to enjoy lunch in a fun and unique setting.

The concept is interesting, but it quickly loses its appeal. The quality of the food leaves much to be desired. Many of the sushi pieces on the conveyor belt were clearly past their prime — you could see it in the fish and even in the browning avocado. Waiting for your rolls became quite tedious. The atmosphere wasn't very enjoyable either. I would much prefer to visit a proper sushi restaurant where I can order everything at once, or take advantage of an all-you-can-eat option like Sushi Katsu. Overall, the concept just doesn’t work for me.

We've passed by this restaurant several times and finally made the time to visit, and we’re so glad we did! We were pleasantly surprised to walk in and see sushi rotating on the conveyor belt. We were greeted warmly and allowed to choose our seating. The atmosphere is casual, and the noise level is quite manageable. They had basketball games playing on the TVs, which we really appreciated. My favorite dish was the Dragon roll, and I also tried a smoked salt margarita that was fantastic. It’s such a cute and fun spot to bring friends or a group. I highly recommend it!
