Sushi by Scratch Restaurants: Denver occupies a 10-seat counter at 1441 Larimer St, set inside NADC Burger in central Denver. The space runs a single format nightly: a chef's choice nigiri-style omakase tasting menu with one dessert course, priced at $195 per person before a 20% service charge. Beverages, premium supplements, and extra bites are offered à la carte.

Seatings are offered at 5:00pm, 7:15pm, and 9:30pm, seven nights a week, with no lunch service. Guests are invited to arrive 30 minutes before their reservation time for a complimentary welcome reception with a beverage and canapés. Reservations run through SevenRooms, and a $25 per person deposit is required — non-refundable but redeemable as bill credit on a future visit if changes are made at least 48 hours out. Cancellations or no-shows inside that 48-hour window forfeit the full $195 per person.

The kitchen does not accommodate mushroom or fish allergies and offers no vegetarian menu, though gluten, dairy, and shellfish restrictions can be handled. All guests, regardless of age, must order the full tasting menu; there is no children's menu or à la carte substitute. There is no dress code. Arriving more than 15 minutes late may mean missing part of the meal, and detailed arrival instructions are sent by text on the day of the reservation, so a working phone number on file matters.

With only 10 seats and three turns a night, the room is classified as hard to book and counter-only, with a moderate booking difficulty overall.
