About Origami Den

SushiDate night

Tucked beneath Sushi Hai in the Highlands, Origami Den is a sushi-and-cocktails speakeasy that feels like stepping into a living art installation. Soft lighting, cherry blossoms, traditional tea rooms and a canopy of 1,000 origami cranes set the mood for intimate nights out, while a carefully curated menu of small plates and inventive drinks keeps the experience deliciously modern. Perfect for date night or a girls’ night, it’s Denver’s newest secret worth seeking out.

What to Order

Crane Roll

A signature roll combining silky toro, avocado, and a citrusy ponzu glaze — delicate, luxurious, and picture-perfect.

Smoked Miso Black Cod

Butter-soft black cod glazed with caramelized miso and finished with a whisper of smoke for deep, savory sweetness.

Citrus Sake Cured Sashimi

Seasonal sashimi cured in yuzu and sake, served with microgreens and a bright sesame dressing to cut through the richness.
