A fresh take on sushi arrives from the glo Noodle House team
From Christopher and Ariana Teigland, the team behind Denver’s Michelin Bib Gourmand-recognized glo Noodle House, the new concept blends globally sourced ingredients with bold flavors and an approachable, neighborhood feel.
Located at 5863 Arapahoe Avenue, Odd Rabbit introduces a dining experience designed to surprise and satisfy, whether you’re a sushi purist, ramen lover or just along for something unexpected.
A globally inspired sushi program with standout ingredients
At the heart of the menu is an elevated sushi program led by Chef Stephen Nguyen, known for his work at Temaki Den and Uncle. Guests can expect pristine nigiri selections including bluefin otoro, chutoro and akami, alongside salmon, hamachi, scallop, amaebi and wagyu.

Ingredients are thoughtfully sourced from around the world, with tuna from Spain, salmon from Scotland and wagyu from Colorado, creating a menu that balances quality, precision and creativity.
Creative small plates and unexpected menu moments
Beyond sushi, Odd Rabbit leans into bold, shareable dishes that bring an element of surprise to the table.
Highlights include crispy rice topped with uni, egg yolk and ikura, steak tartare with gochujang and nori and chicken wings glazed in fish sauce caramel with peanuts, lime and chili.
In a playful twist, the menu also features a double cheeseburger made with angus beef, American cheese, house pickles, cured cabbage and miso mayo, offering something for every kind of diner.
Ramen brings depth and comfort to the menu
Ramen plays a key supporting role, with three exclusive bowls designed specifically for the concept.

Options include a Shio ramen with rabbit confit, a rich Shoyu ramen with roast pork and mushrooms and a Spicy Shoyu XXX topped with crispy chili-glazed chicken for a balanced kick of heat.
A beverage program built for exploration
The beverage program mirrors the kitchen’s creativity, with a strong focus on sake alongside a curated cocktail list.
Signature drinks include Orochi’s Revenge with sesame fat-washed bourbon and White Rabbit with gin, mastic and Suze, alongside seasonal cocktails, sake flights and zero-proof options.
Designed as a vibrant, social dining destination
The nearly 3,500-square-foot space, designed by Arrow B Architecture, features 90 indoor seats, a 10-seat chef’s counter and a patio set to open for summer service.

Blending colorful design with an intimate, energetic atmosphere, Odd Rabbit invites guests to gather, dine and linger.
