HAPA SUSHI GRILL AND SAKE BAR
2780 E 2nd Avenue, Denver CO 80206
(303) 322-9554

With names like Magic Mushrooms, Spicy Tuna Nachos and the Orgasm Roll, it’s clear that Hapa Sushi offers more than your average sushi joint. What it serves up is deceptively simple: Japanese favorites with a chic, contemporary twist as fragrant and decorative as a fresh slice of lemon on a piece of salmon sashimi. Whether you’re in the mood for sweet (plums, strawberries, mandarin oranges and sweet sauces come into play in several dishes), pungent (try the incredible fuji apple bleu cheese salad studded with candied pecans), or spicy (the hamapeno roll features both hamachi and jalapenos), you’re in the right place. Add some warm sake and the attentions of a casual, young wait staff and you’re in hip sushi heaven.
