Foraged Restaurant

Pretty good Asian inspired restaurant! The decor and vibe is nice! The crispy rice was good and had a nice kick. The yaki udon was very tasty. We got the kimchi fried rice and added shrimp. The flavor was great but it was very spicy! The pork bao buns had great flavor.

I thought the service and the atmosphere at Foraged were outstanding. We were immediately greeted by a smiling, genuinely friendly, seeming hostess, who showed us to our table, and our waiter was very effective and also nice. It was neat how there was an upper level and a lower level. We got to sit upstairs and our table overlooked the lower dining room, which was kind of cool. I also really liked the chandelier.They have an interesting cocktail menu, and although I was excited to get into it, ended up sharing a bottle of wine because you can't go wrong pairing a chilly Riesling with sushi. I really liked our steak baos, and thought the salmon and yellowtail hand rolls that we got were tasty. We were accidentally served a spider roll by mistake and it was honestly kind of rough, but I did like the cool spiderweb mayonnaise design that they did on the plate- that was fun. I thought the caterpillar roll was just OK, but it was my husband's favorite roll. The pickled ginger was also particularly good, kind of random but true!!

Solid sushi in LODO. Came here on a Friday with a friend and sat at the bar... wasn't busy at all so the staff was super attentive and helpful. Started with a Lychee Martini... and had a few too many but super delicious and refreshing for summer. Crispy tuna is amazing, perfect bite. The pork belly buns are also amazing and hit the spot, the perfect two bites. Spicy tuna/ rainbow roll were also great.

I'm never one to say food is terrible,but the food here was not good. And the service wasn't great either. I had two different tuna rolls , one being the Tuna Tataki roll, and a bigeye tuna nigiri, and the fish was chewey? It was cut awful. It's like the membrane/bones were still on like half of the fish on the top of my roll and I had to spit it out. The udon was not traditional udon, so be warned, and the flavors were just off. I will say the edamame was good as they seasoned it with big chunks of garlic and same with the miso soup. But the quality of everything else was not good. I would honestly not come back here.

This place is conveniently located in Milk Market, near the shops and Maven hotel. I do like this place and think the Nigiri is good, but compared to other sushi in the area, I think it is the bottom tier. The menu is more modern and has more options for those who don't like fish or sushi. This is certainly a plus for groups, but for real sushi lovers, it's really not the best spot. I had no problem with service the most recent time I went! The bartender was lovely and the staff seemed to get along. I came here about 4 months ago and table service was a little iffy, but that was just one experience! I'll probably be back to this spot since it's in the area and I love sushi, but only if the other sushi spots are full

Went to foraged with my family for Mother's Day. Solid 4 stars. The fish was fresh and the dumplings yummy. Our favorite was the foraged roll. A little spicy and all flavors blended well. My kids liked the smoked salmon roll. And the lavender lemonade with edible glitter- so fun!Also had the spicy salmon roll- decent. Lastly, a roll wrapped with cucumber and no rice- so great for Paleo diet- but wish it was a little more flavorful. Service was good but not excellent. Could have been a little more personable and taken plates away earlier. I think this would be a better date night vs early 5pm on a Sunday for a better vibe and cool lighting. However, we got happy hour on a Sunday- half off most rolls!! Can't beat that! Lastly, the dairy block is sooo fun! We wandered and took pictures and turned the music boxes on the wall in the alleys outside the restaurant after our early meal.

Limited but quality happy hour, impeccable service!I visited Foraged for their happy hour on Monday and was surprised to see this place was practically empty! I was surprised because there's no reason not to check it out: the food was excellent, service top tier (Ross took great care of us), and the design is stunning. The interior is reminiscent of a modern upscale after hours spot, so maybe it's more lively later in the evening. I will say, although the happy hour selections are limited, their offerings were exceptional. I was so obsessed with that soy butter sauce that came with the edamame, I kept it to dip my roll in after we finished the appetizers!Maybe with a more accessible location this happy hour would become a regular for me, as I doubt i'll get lucky with parking on a busier day. Overall, superb experience and I look forward to more from this establishment!

Surprised how empty this place was on a Saturday night. Lucky for us, that meant quick service. Started with a pork gyoza which had a nice crisp. Split the Chuck Norris roll which was a new roll for me. The pineapple was similar to what mango brings and the tuna tasted fresh. One of the few rolls I've had that was fried but always a welcomed addition. Pretty big pieces and a nice sweet and spicy sauce combo. For my main I went with the kimchi fried rice which to my liking wasn't overly heavy in kimchi. Chili paste brought in some spice, and an overall good balance of ingredients. Fairly good portion of pork belly too. The other entree I was between was the yaki udon. I was able to try some of my friends and I wish I went with that. The noodles were nice and the dish was a little more flavorful than the fried rice. Outside of the food, I enjoyed a sapporo and had a great time with my friends.

Some of the best sushi i have had in a while. We got three rolls as well as the crispy rice appetizer. We had great service, our waiter was very attentive and friendly. Overall ambiance of the restaurant was terrific! I loved the cool chandelier as you walk in.

You can dine under a 370,000 handwoven crystal chandelier at this restaurant...FOR[a]GED is a dynamic, two-level Japanese restaurant & raw bar located in Dairy Block in downtown Denver. We arrived and were seated in the main dining room. The aesthetic was sexy with the alluring sparkle of the chandelier & burgundy seating. The restaurant's focal point resides in its astronomical goddess of a chandelier - it's gorgeous. Owner, Meghan Gold & server, Kaitlin were both wonderful; each made sure we had everything we needed while we dined. Meghan was a firecracker with evident passion for the restaurant & her team (she was so fun).We started our night off strong with a round of cocktails. The Lycheetini was made with Wheatley vodka, lychee, seasonal fruit, lime, and simple syrup. The Lycheetini was my favorite cocktail of the night - it was refreshing and tropical with light floral notes.The Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini was made with pumpkin spice slurry, Mr. Black Coffee liqueur, Wheatley vodka, and cold brew coffee. This martini was awesome - imagine all the delicious flavors of fall in a cocktail, and this was that. It had a rich, creamy texture and a hint of spice. The White Lotus was made with Hendricks gin, sake, pickled ginger, lime, and simple syrup. This was a fun drink with a sweet nose and a hint of citrusThe FOR[a]GED Old Fashioned was made with coffee infused Buffalo Trace, vanilla bean simple syrup, and black walnut bitters. This coffee-infused old fashioned added a jolt to the classic drink.FOR[a]GED also has a great selection of beers and sake. The Crispy Rice was made with spicy tuna, jalapeño, sweet soy, yuzu kosho aioli, and micro cilantro. This was a solid starter; the rice squares went well with the dollops of spicy ahi tuna.The Yellowtail Sashimi was made with pickled jalapeño, micro cilantro, and mushroom ponzu. This was an extremely flavorful, yet light dish.The Gyoza was made with pork, spicy balsamic tamari, and spicy mayo. There were several options of Bao Buns, and we had the Pork Belly & Soft-Shell Crab. The Pork Belly buns were served with a pineapple hoisin glaze and citrus salsa. The Soft-Shell Crab were served with a citrus aioli.We had several Signature Rolls and the presentation on each were great. The Tony Stark Roll was made with spicy tuna, jalapeño, cucumber, cream cheese, dragon crab mix, Thai-chili sauce, spicy mayo, pickled jalapeño slice, and tobiko. The pickled jalapeño slice that topped the roll had the perfect balance between spicy and sour and paired well with the rounded, salty sweetness of the tobiko.The Zilla Roll was made with shrimp tempura, avocado, cucumber, seared spicy salmon, sweet soy, spicy mayo, and chives.The Bruce Lee Roll was made with shrimp tempura, crab mix, cream cheese, minced garlic, Fresno sauce, unagi sauce, tempura crunch, scallions, and tempura fried. This roll was hearty and very savory.The FOR[a]GED Roll was made with crab mix, avocado, cucumber, escolar, blue fin tuna, sake-soy butter, garlic chips, and Thai chili-ginger sauce. The FOR[A]GED roll was creamy from the crab & avocado and the blue fin tuna that topped the roll was smooth and fresh. The Thai chili-ginger sauce added a nice little kick in spice. The Fried Rice was made with shrimp, green onions, and egg.The Tonkotsu Ramen was made with braised pork belly, charred Bok choy, kimchi, tamari soft egg, fried mushroom, and pickled onion. The ramen was characterized by a creamy soul-warming broth and all the umami & savory goodness of everything in it, from the chewy noodles to the tender pork belly. For dessert we had the Cheesecake & Lemon Creme Brulee.
