Blue Moon Asian Grill

Hands down the best sushi for the price in Denver! Nice neighborhood spot with an excellent selection of both raw and cooked choices. The staff is always friendly and the food is beautifully prepared. Prices are reasonable for students but the quality doesn’t suffer. Highly recommend coming here if you’re in the DU area.

We have driven past for many years and finally made a visit.
It was perfection!
We had the
Summer Shrimp Roll
Shrimp and Scallop Teriyaki
Lettice Wraps
Miso Soup
Uni with Quails Egg
We will be back regularly! !

Have to update this with a heads up. I have been coming by here a lot since my first visit enjoyably, but I have also learned that ordering delivery from this place is a HUGE mistake.
The food is great when eating in here, and even picking it up, it has been fine, but delivery takes way too long and shame on me for risking getting sushi, but the delivery time has creeped up on deliveries. This time, the food took AN HOUR & 40 minutes to be delivered. I called to check on the delivery @ an hour & 30 noting concern for the timing with sushi in the order, & they expressed their apologies b/​c it was extremely busy in the restaurant.
The food showed up 10 minutes later & I let the driver know I was concerned about the food & he said it had been kept cold. Turns out my order was not correct on top of it. AND the sushi was not chilled and was even warm. One of the items completely fell apart to the touch and smells poorly. It was clearly NOT kept cool.
I called the store and they were extremely apologetic and again said that it was extremely busy at the store, offering to remake the incorrect item and deliver it, but I declined since it is already so late from when I originally ordered and not wanting to wait again. They offered 20% off my next order, but there’s no real way for them to ensure they can honor that. They did say that the delivery delay was not on the driver at all and strictly on the store.
Eating in here is 3.5 but DON’T GET DELIVERY FROM HERE. GO EAT IN THE STORE.

Never order food for delivery — always, always at least an hour wait — today, I waited 1.5 hours for our food to arrive. To make matters even worse, our order was wrong so one of our kids did not get what they wanted. I have been trying to call them back and the line keeps saying mail box full. Irritated is an understatement!

I’ve been going here since the joint opened 7 – 8 years ago. I still make it down once a week or so. My husband was not a sushi fan when we met but now he’ll drive 20mins across town from our house in Lakewood, just for good sushi. Don’t let the décor fool you, they have the best and freshest selection I have found anywhere in the Denver metro area. They aren’t trendy or flashy but if you like REAL sushi vs a roll with a catchy name, this is your place. Give them a try and you won’t be disappointed!

I’m gonna go with a solid 4.5 stars. This is my neighborhood sushi joint and I order from here about once a week. It’s not the fanciest sushi I’ve had, but it’s fresh, dependable and appropriately priced. On weekends they almost always have Uni, and it’s outstanding. Prob my favorite thing on their menu is the Bronco roll. I always just get Dinner box B (nigiri assortment) + Bronco + spicy edamame. That’s enough for me and my wife to get full. Spicy tuna rolls are also great.

There is no question the food is very good. I’ve had bad trouble with the last 2 delivery orders I’ve placed. The first one took over an hour and a half. I was promised a $ 9.00 credit due to this problem. I just placed my second order. The website allows you to specify a time for order to be delivered. My food came 40 minutes early, and no $ 9.00 discount. It took about 15 minutes on the phone for them to agree to give me fresh food at the correct time and to honor the discount. Sorry to say this will be my last order with them.

Wow. What a poor experience I just had. Our family eats at Bluemoon all the time, probably once every two weeks. However tonight, getting takeout, I stopped at the sushi bar to have a sake and a quick piece of sushi while I waited. The sake showed up but the sushi never did. Finally, the takeout showed up and then sashimi, still frozen! Showed up. I talked to the manager and he offered to remove the cost of the sashimi and give me sushi to-​go instead. However after waiting an additional 15 minutes, the sushi never showed up and I gave up.

This place has always been an amazing place to eat at. This time I chose delivery and I think it was a huge mistake. I’m currently I’ll so I didn’t feel like driving the half mile to the restaurant. The food I ordered came to me cold and the order wasn’t even correct. I called to make sure my card wasn’t charged for the incorrect amount and just to let them know what had happened. They didn’t seem to really care that there was a mistake, no offer to fix it or anything. Wasn’t in the mood to work on getting this resolved I just accepted the fact that sometimes mistakes happen. So I started to eat the food that wasn’t even room temperature and when I was about to take another bite I noticed there was a staple in the dish. I don’t own a stapler so I know for a fact it was from the restaurant. All I ask is please step it up a notch, I’m not sure if there’s management change or what’s going on but this is the first time I’ve had such a problem. I mean there wasn’t even the basic soy sauce packet thrown in, which yes was asked for on the phone.

Excellent. Nice portions, great price. This little gem has quite the number of sushi options along with a host of other offerings for the non-​sushi types. Highly recommend.

The Japanese meets Chinese meets Thai concept is intriguing but fails in its execution.
Drunken noodles were salty to the point of toxicity.
Chicken curry was middle of the road: inoffensive but also unremarkable.
I hope the authentic Japanese offerings are of better quality than the Thai food. But I will not be returning to find out.
Meh.

Nasty. Their sushi tasted fishy and old. I stopped eating after 2 pieces, but my man finished the sushi… and then got the shits that night (lol fat boy regrets). I’ll never eat here again. NEVER… you shouldn’t either. There’s WAAAAAAAAY better sushi spots here in Denver. Go there and avoid this place like the plague.

Got takeout at work one day. Their sushi rolls are big and fresh. Their sunflower maki is now my absolute fav! All the right flavors going on right there! It’s a pretty special roll to me because I’m usually picky with sushi and they got this one just right. Crab and shrimp mingling together with the perfect amount of spice! We had a coupon for free crab ran goons with $ 30 purchase. The crab ran goons were big, hot and filled with delicious cream cheese. I think this is one of my top spots for sushi now and it’s conveniently located so very close to my work and so very close to my heart. I love sushi and this place knows what’s up.

A little hidden gem on Colorado Blvd. The sushi chefs are very professional and the establishment is very clean. I ordered the soft shell crab and I also ordered hamachi, Maguro, sashimi and an eel roll. I have to say the sashimi was absolutely scrumdiddlyumptious. The portions were quite generous too .The wasabi was very hot. The ginger was more vinegary than I am used to. Overall I am giving this 4 stars out of 5 I do enjoy this place very much so so definitely come give it a try I will be coming back here again. ;-)

Been driving by for a year and finally we are here! Absolutely AMAZING! Sushi is excellent and the teriyaki sauce and salad dressing are original family recipe that blew me away! Wonderful service, clean and great easy going atmosphere! We will be regulars!

Cheap Chinese food. There are tons of Chinese restaurants in the Denver area. Tons. This joint has a unique twist to how they prepare favorite American Chinese classics such as sesame chicken, or orange beef. What is the twist? I think it is the five spice. You get a whif of the same sort of seasoning used in preparing Chinese roast duck. It’s a subtle but amazing preparation that sets it aside from the competition. The place is eclectic, for sure. There are no fewer than 6 different stones used to decorate the place (flooring, table, walls) which also has a funny layout; it can all be a little distracting. If you don’t care about that stuff then the cheap lunch specials and friendly service should make you happy enough to return.

My husband and I have been going to Blue Moon for the last 6 years. This is by far the BEST sushi we have found in Denver. Don’t let the «dive» atmosphere turn you away, the sushi is always as fresh as you can get it in Colorado and always tastes amazing. The other menu items are also amazing.

Nice and honest Sushi Bar. Sake, Beer and fresh fish. If you like spicy, and are a little daring, try the nuclear roll — I add jalapenos to mine for a little extra kick. By the way, if you finish it, they give you a free chilled sake. You may need it after…

I have been coming here for years now. The sushi lunch combo is fantastic, great fish quality. I love the sesame chicken, it is among the best in town. Absolutely the best pad Thai in Denver.

Blue Moon Sushi is aptly named and describes how often one should eat here. As in Once in a Blue Moon.
I do want to say maybe take out/​delivery from Blue Moon is better than the dine in experience? Really, I can’ think of a less inspiring interior. My initial walk in was a slight panic.
My friends had purchased a
certificate THAT DAY and Blue Moon would not take it! Weird.
We tried some salmon/​cream cheese sushi– rolls and they were ok, and the tempura shrimp rolls were very good– crispy and hot! My entrée was the crispy grilled tofu and it was hot and tasty but slightly oily. My friends ordered the Vegetarian Sushi platter which was gorgeous. Three of us for dinner, no drinks $ 60.
Not bad, but the interior was lacking for me. Think church basement meets IHOP.
