Overall
  • As always, Mizuna is consistently one of the best places in Denver and Colorado.
  • All in all an excellent total dining experience.
  • Personally, my favorite restaurant in Denver.
  • we, two deaf senior citizens, could not hear one another, a huge plus in this age of noisy restaurants.
  • Everything is always outstanding here, no matter how busy they are.
  • I'm not sure the experience was worth over $200 for dinner for two but it was very nice.
  • Overall a great dining experience!
  • Loved the experience and will definitely return.
  • We brought one of our most important clients and they loved everything about Mizuna.
  • We had a wonderful experience at Mizuna.
  • definitely the best restaurant in Denver.
  • This would be a great place for a date/romantic dinner or special occasion.
  • But everything else was wonderful.
  • For Denver, this could well be the best around but against the top places in those cities, it would not be near the top.
  • It is one of the best restaurants I've been to in a while.
  • If a restaurant is noisy, I don't care how good the food is.
  • A quaint French style restaurant more suitable for special occasions as it is a bit on the expensive side.
  • We certainly didnt feel as pampered as was standard in the past Overall a good experience but not what it used to be.
  • Place is very small and noisy
Food
  • The food is fabulous, the wine list is exceptional
  • Lobster macaroni portion was very small for $18 and was not hot at all....Salad portion was also very small and was very bland....Bartender got confused with wine and waiter bring the wrong bill to table.
  • The food was delicious.
  • All in all an excellent total dining experience.
  • The salad appetizer was very nice as were our entrees (beef tenderloin and ostrich)....Overall, very good/great food, great service, nice ambiance.
  • Veal entree was fantastic....Amazing wine recommendation - perfect!
  • The food and service were great!
  • Everyone should try this dinner at least once-although expensive, well worth it!...We cannot wait to go back and choose from the regular menu-and the lobster mac and cheese dish is as good as it gets!

  • Wonderful taste but left me wishing for more.
  • Food was excellent.
  • The appetizer and salad were excellent.
  • The veal was excellent.
  • All entrees are equally great;
  • Our anniversary dinner could not have been better, from the valet attendant to the maitre'd to the server and then the fabulous food.
  • The food was every bit as wonderful as I heard it was....That is typical of fine dining, I just prefer to let them know when I want them, not have them there every 3-5 minutes....I'm not sure the experience was worth over $200 for dinner for two but it was very nice.
  • The food was exceptional!
  • Excellent food, excellent service.
