    Kenichi is one of the best restaurants in Aspen. We have eaten there many times, food and service are always great. Love the duck bao buns and of course the sushi and rolls. Had lamb chops on the special last night and they were great, hope they put them on the regular menu.

    We made last minute reservations on a holiday weekend and noted that we were coming in for a celebration. Our hosts were so excited, gave us a great table, and let our server know that we were there for a special occasion. Our server was outstanding - sending over his favorite dishes to enjoy and explaining everything in perfect detail. The whole crew went to great lengths to treat us to an unforgettable engagement celebration. Thank you!!!

    My wife and I dined at Yuki last night. Everything was perfect. Great food and service. So many great dishes to pick from. Service has always been excellent as we’ve been there many times since it opened. Very good wine list and very knowledgeable Sommeliers. One of our top two or three favorites in town.
