In a Denver market where Japanese restaurants often specialize narrowly, the breadth here indicates cooks trained in Tokyo's izakaya tradition, where versatility across ramen, grilled skewers, and raw preparations is expected.","8354 Northfield Boulevard 1710","+1 303 371 4644","https:\u002F\u002Fzensushinorthfield.com\u002F","0101000020E6100000B8955E9B0D395AC0BBD97AE129E44340","2026-07-19T02:54:20.014112+00:00","2026-08-22T03:50:00.28011+00:00","11625377543","2026-08-22T03:50:00.207+00:00",[],{"id":596,"slug":597,"name":598,"tagline":8,"description":599,"cuisine":10,"price_range":8,"address_line1":600,"address_line2":8,"city":12,"state":13,"zip":601,"neighborhood":8,"phone":602,"website":603,"email":8,"reservation_url":8,"location":604,"hero_image_url":605,"logo_url":8,"is_claimed":17,"is_verified":17,"is_active":18,"featured":17,"featured_until":8,"meta_title":8,"meta_description":8,"schema_markup":8,"review_count":19,"avg_rating":19,"created_at":606,"updated_at":607,"owner_user_id":8,"directory_type":22,"osm_id":608,"google_place_id":8,"foursquare_id":8,"validation_status":24,"validation_checked_at":609,"validation_failed_since":8,"source":25,"restaurant_hours":610},"e8e8b529-68eb-4db8-ab3a-6246975bd505","neko-ramen-rice-denver-y03k","Neko Ramen & Rice","This Japanese spot operates with the kind of focused discipline you find in places that take their craft seriously—the ramen broth likely simmers for hours, the rice is treated as a foundation rather than filler, and the omakase counter demands respect and attention from both sides. The menu's breadth across ramen, sushi, yakitori, and tempura suggests a kitchen confident enough to execute multiple techniques well rather than dilute itself trying to do everything, and the sake program probably reflects someone who knows how to match drinks to what's being cooked. It's the type of place where regulars have their spots at the counter and newcomers quickly understand why.","4030 Colorado Boulevard 103","80207","+1 303-320-5950","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.nekoramenandrice.com\u002F","0101000020E610000068AD0DBA293C5AC0744CCC6905E34340","https:\u002F\u002Fassets.cdn.filesafe.space\u002FRx1tGiwhwOzurvAr3fkS\u002Fmedia\u002F69f0113b05d419900128ca17.webp","2026-07-19T02:54:26.786066+00:00","2026-08-22T03:56:16.192192+00:00","13460507128","2026-08-22T03:56:16.131+00:00",[611,614,616,618,620,623,625],{"id":612,"day":88,"source":25,"opens_at":183,"closes_at":613,"is_closed":17,"restaurant_id":596},"2624117d-4344-4171-9dc4-3468862f47fb","23:00:00",{"id":615,"day":91,"source":25,"opens_at":183,"closes_at":613,"is_closed":17,"restaurant_id":596},"c2ad5220-abe0-4bf0-826a-5f933372d2de",{"id":617,"day":96,"source":25,"opens_at":183,"closes_at":613,"is_closed":17,"restaurant_id":596},"92817a7a-f3c7-46b5-bc6a-aeace2073ab8",{"id":619,"day":99,"source":25,"opens_at":183,"closes_at":613,"is_closed":17,"restaurant_id":596},"f0880098-7f55-4f76-80a0-d32af3418274",{"id":621,"day":102,"source":25,"opens_at":183,"closes_at":622,"is_closed":17,"restaurant_id":596},"83cc79fb-2c0b-42b2-b042-2a8531de552a","23:59:00",{"id":624,"day":107,"source":25,"opens_at":183,"closes_at":622,"is_closed":17,"restaurant_id":596},"3dc081c0-714f-4098-bcca-0993f914fadd",{"id":626,"day":110,"source":25,"opens_at":183,"closes_at":622,"is_closed":17,"restaurant_id":596},"2a3b1f88-f824-4d2d-83bd-f905da79bd95",[628,631,634,637,640,643,646,649,652,655,658,661,664,667],{"name":629,"slug":630},"Arvada","arvada",{"name":632,"slug":633},"Aurora","aurora",{"name":635,"slug":636},"Boulder","boulder",{"name":638,"slug":639},"Broomfield","broomfield",{"name":641,"slug":642},"Centennial","centennial",{"name":644,"slug":645},"Colorado Springs","colorado-springs",{"name":647,"slug":648},"Durango","durango",{"name":650,"slug":651},"Fort Collins","fort-collins",{"name":653,"slug":654},"Glendale","glendale",{"name":656,"slug":657},"Grand Junction","grand-junction",{"name":659,"slug":660},"Greeley","greeley",{"name":662,"slug":663},"Lakewood","lakewood",{"name":665,"slug":666},"Longmont","longmont",{"name":668,"slug":669},"Loveland","loveland"]
