| Reviews: | "This is my favorite sushi restaurant in Fort Collins. It is relatively new but is catching on quick with the sushi crowd. Nice atmosphere and excellent sushi. I have tried Suehiro's and Mt. Fuji in Fort Collins. Jeju tops both in preparation and fish quality. The chefs are highly skilled and friendly. Pretty good sake selection. Try the Onikoroshi 'Devil Killer' sake served 'masu'. They will provide you with a hinoki wood drinking box (masu) and fill it just to overflowing. Enjoy the natural lemony scent of this therapeutic wood while enjoying some great sake and sushi.

| | "With fish hand selected by Japanese Sushi-men and a well-educated wait staff, I cannot find a better sushi restaurant.

| | "I had the single worst dining experience in my life at this resturant. The kitchen lost our order and the owner refused to even speak to our table of eight. The server (unbeknownst to the owner) was a friend of one of our party members and told us that not only did the owner refuse to come talk to our party, but he didn't care if we ever returned to his restaurant. So we haven't and won't. Suhiro is better and has better prices.

| | "Mt. Fuji has very good sushi and shashimi--the fish is fresh; the rice is cooked correctly;
the preparation is well done. The rest of the food is very good as well. The atmosphere is
typical of such U.S. American restaurants. Lunches are more reasonably priced that dinners.

| Name: | Nimo´s Sushi Bar & Japanese Restaurant |
| Address: | 1220 W Elizabeth St, Fort Collins, CO |
| Phone: | (970) 221-1040 |
| Reviews: | "The only real sushi in Fort Collins is Nimo´s Sushi Bar. The chef is highly skilled (27 years, trained in Tokyo), the service is very professional and polite, the atmosphere is warm and perfectly suited to enjoying sushi. The food is exceptional. You can just tell from the fish that the chef knows his business, but more than the fish, you can tell from the rice. Coming from LA, I was very surprised (& delighted) to find a place of quality; we were very dubious at first. But Nimo is as skilled as chef as we´ve ever seen. Go on a Thursday night and try the uni, mirugai, kumomoto oysters, and, if he has time to make it (& and if he likes you and is in a good mood) the magic mushroom. If you´re into rolls, there´s the nimo roll and the rainbow roll. Buy him a beer and you´re on the right track." |

| | "Nimo´s is THE choice for sushi in Ft. Fun. Seated at the sushi bar, Nimo prepares and delivers your selections just-in-time and in the order of mild-to-wild. Always the best rice, moist and sweet, acts as the foundation for impeccable delights from the sea. On a slow night (RARE) you might even be treated to a serenade of Beatles & Neil Young - Nimo style." |

| Name: | Suehiro Japanese Restaurant |
| Address: | 223 Linden St, Fort Collins, CO |
| Phone: | (970) 482-3734 |
| Reviews: | "Like Mt. Fuji a ´sushi bar´ in name only. Stay away from that establishment. The rice is dry and stale and often brittle. I doubt they even concern themselves with the recipes for the rice vinegar. And their fish is mediocre." |
| | - J. Blue Chattigre (Ikchat@verinet.com) [November 9th 1997] |
| | " Suehiro's sushi and sashimi are very good--the fish is very fresh, and it's quality is
high; the rice is cooked appropriately, and the preparation is very good. The other food is also
very good. The restaurant is nicely decorated but somewhat crowded and noisy when busy (as it
usually is). Suehiro consistently is rated as the best Japanese restaurant in Fort Collins by
readers of the local newspaper.

| | "Great sushi, great ambience, The tea room is very nice. The staff is friendly but it can get a little crowded at times so plan to eat early or late for the best environment. My only complaint is the armor in front of the restaurant is displayed incorrectly (mostly a personal problem). AA++
