Across the board, this place is LOW QUALITY. Spend an extra 50 cents a roll and go get the good stuff! – Fontana Sushi is awful. The rice was old tasting and not soft and easy to eat like other sushi. They use imitation crab!!!!! YUCK. $4 for a California Roll with fake crab- go to John Holly for 50 more cents you get high quality REAL crab. The shrimp was tasteless and the Soba noodles were disgusting- seriously- we had 8 people eating and no one ate them- everyone put a little on their plates and we all agreed they weren't... read more
Fontana F.U.B.A.R. – So I normally don't post reviews... can't hold back this time. I am stunned at the similarities between all the reviews in the past year or so of Fontana. My boyfriend and I have the same story. We have been regulars at Fontana for the past six years or so. Regular enough to start being recognized by the staff and eventually they started sending us a free roll or two during each visit. What could be better, free sushi!!!! And then... What happened?!?!?! We gradually started noticing a decline in the serv... read more
$1 sushi is worth it. – My dining group goes to a different sushi restaurant each week and I wanted to give my new neighborhood sushi restaurant a try. I set up a reservation for 15 and they said we would have a private room. We got there and they said the room was too small for us so they packed us in a corner. Only 9 of us were there but waited an hour and a half for our sushi order...yes that is not a typo. The server explained that the manager wanted one sushi chef to make all of our order instead of splitting us into 2 ... read more
I used to be a huge fan of Fontana's -- great sushi, good price, nice atmosphere. I've probably been there at least a half a dozen times and always would wait in line (sometimes 45 minutes). But the last time we were waiting in line, we watched insects (citysearch won't let me use the "R" word) crawling all over the wall in a room full of people. I can't remember the last time I saw a "R" in Denver, period. Needless to say we left to go Sushi Den -- it costs more but at least the kitchen is open and you can tell it's clean. ... read more
service with additude and smelly fish – I used to really like fontana susi but too have noticed them going down hill. Last time I went there I noticed a health inspection sign that was placed in a spot that would not have been visible had I not sat down to wait for my pick up order. They had a long list of health code violations. Bad ones! Things like not keeping food at a regulated temprature, not providing a smoking area for emplyees.. there were like 5 violations. When I finally did get my california rolls they were reall... read more
Bad Service and Bad Sushi – This place was enjoyable at one time, but it has definitely gone downhill. I noticed a negative change when I got sick from their sushi. I know eating sushi makes you more prone to getting sick but I have had sushi lots of times at many different places and have never gotten sick. The next time my friend and I gave it another try we had another bad experience. Her Unagi was not fully cooked and should have been. We told the watress and instead of being courteous about it and either replacing the p... read more
Great Selection – The fish was so fresh and so good. I loved everything about this place. The only down side was the rice. It wasn't traditional sushi rice, but for the price I can look past that. The staff is very nice and can answer any questions you may have.
My Fontana's Experience – I've visited Fontana's many times before, but after my last visit I most likely will be very leery to go back for another sitting. We went to dinner there on a Monday in July of 2007 night. The place was pretty slow and we were seated right as we walked into the door. We were directed to the north corner of the building, where we were seated at an uncomfortably placed table with a broken chair. Once we were seated it took only a few minutes to see a waitress and order our drinks, at that time our wa... read more
My favorite in Denver...don't tell anybody. – If you're not into spending $100 on dinner for two at Sushi Den, Fontana is a nice substitute. We're there constantly, and that's after trying a lot of other places around Denver. For some reason, nothing can quite surpass Fontana's combination of quality and vlue. The $1 "happy hour" prices are nice (especially for their salmon and eel, which are great), the service is usually good, and the sushi is excellent 95% of the time. Parking is a bit of a pain at times, but you'll figur... read more
