Madame Ushi Aspen - Aspen, Colorado

Andre A.

Madame Ushi is an experience. Highly recommend for a fun night out. Feels like the it place in Aspen right now. Unique mix of Michelin star level food, cool restaurant/club nightlife vibe, and upscale younger Aspen crowd. The decor and vibe are perfect - artsy but cozy, with music spot on for the nightlife vibe. The food was spectacular - way above our expectations. Best food we had on this trip to Aspen and some of best sushi we’ve had. Highly recommend the tuna sashimi, surf and turf roll, cabbage Caesar, and baked scallop. Service was exceptional to match. The atmosphere leans towards club, especially as the night goes on and the music lounge opens in the adjacent space. They hit it out of the park - best experience we had the entire week in Aspen. Amazing.

Madame Ushi Aspen: a well-executed experience from start to finish

Madame Ushi delivers a contemporary Asian concept that’s thoughtfully put together. The atmosphere is elegant without feeling pretentious, the service is attentive, and the menu is well-curated — dishes are balanced, well-executed, and visually appealing without going over the top.

One of the standout elements is the sushi bar. The quality of the ingredients and the precision in preparation are evident from the first bite. Jesús, who leads that section, brings a particularly refined touch — clean technique, steady pace, and a clear focus that keeps the standard consistently high.

In a setting where style can sometimes overshadow substance, Madame Ushi manages to deliver both. Worth visiting — and revisiting.

Regrettably, my recent visit to Madame Ushi left me with a sense of unease, despite their evident efforts. While the staff tried hard to make us feel welcome, there was an underlying feeling of discomfort throughout our meal.

The astronomical prices on the menu left us scratching our heads, as there seemed to be no logical explanation for such exorbitant pricing. Unfortunately, the food failed to justify these sky-high costs.

Expecting culinary excellence to match the price tag, we were sorely disappointed by the subpar quality of the dishes. Each bite left much to be desired, further adding to our disappointment.

In the end, while the restaurant's efforts were commendable, the overall experience fell short of expectations. For those seeking a satisfying dining experience in Aspen, I would recommend exploring other options that offer better value for money.

P. S.:
Nevertheless, for those seeking a visually stunning dining setting that transports them to the streets of Japan, Madame Ushi may still hold appeal.

What an awesome meal and service. We liked the look of the menu and decided to go in. Such a warm friendly greeting from Madison and got us seated in a nice booth. Had a really nice glass of Monterey Chardonnay, 3x rolls and some of the best sashimi ever. The highlight was the scallop sashimi. The overall experience was enhanced by our server Jelena super friendly and professional. Looking forward to going back

Since the arrival of the new chef Jake (previously from Nobu in Miami) the food has blown me away. Everything on the menu is incredible. I could eat there every night. The ambience is sexy, unique and vibrant. The food is flavorful and beautifully plated. The hostesses, waiters and waitresses are kind, caring and attentive. 10/10

From the minute I walked in I was extremely impressed with the attention to detail with the decor and atmosphere that gives this place an identity of its own. I’ve eaten here many times and really enjoy everything which is impressive considering how diverse their menu is. The food itself is on another level! This is by far my favorite restaurant in Aspen and I will continue recommending it to all my friends.

Food and atmosphere were terrific. Service was lacking, servers seemed a little overwhelmed. Took a while for anyone to take a drink order and there were small miscues all night; bringing food to the wrong table; trying to take away sake glasses while we still had a half full bottle; forgetting items that were ordered. Cocktails, spicy edamame, and the jidori chicken were excellent though, and I would dine here again.
