World-renowned chef Nobuyuki Matsuhisa will open a restaurant this year in the Steele Creek luxury apartment building in Cherry Creek.

The 7,800-square-foot Matsuhisa Cherry Creek will be the James Beard Award-nominated chef’s third Colorado restaurant.

” Matsuhisa in Aspen and Vail have hosted food lovers from around the world,” co-owner Michael Goldberg said in a news release. “We look forward to bringing Matsuhisa’s innovative menu to our guests in Denver.”

Chef Matsuhisa is a classically trained sushi chef who began shaping his cuisine when he opened a sushi bar in Peru. He opened his first Matsuhisa restaurant in the U.S. in 1987 in Beverly Hills, Calif., and it quickly became a draw for celebrities and fans of fine dining.

His fusion-style menus blend traditional Japanese dishes with ingredients from Peru and Argentina.

In addition to dining room service, Matsuhisa will provide service to the roof deck pool at Steele Creek, as well as food and beverage delivery to residents of the building.
