    Happy hour all day on Monday! Sushi is great, and the Hamatchi Jalapeño is amazing as a starter. So are the Crispy Brussels Sprouts!

    This is a cornerstone of Boulder and has recently been redesigned. They now have a larger focus on cocktails with the expanded lounge space. Great place to meet for craft cocktails and sashimi.

    As far as mainland sushi goes, this place delivers the goods in an authentic feeling environment. Great for dates, happy hour, or just a night out on Pearl St. Monday has a happy hour menu all day!

    Looooved this sushi spot. Sat at the sushi bar for a very romantic and sweet date. Everything we had was delicious fresh and we'll thought out. Service was great as well.

    If you like spicy food, try the spicy calamari. Not only is it yum, it's also different from the standard deep fried version, and a great new take on this seafood!

    Ask to sit on the patio. It's small and sometimes noisy, but excellent on a nice day.
