“Some of the best Thai food I’ve had. It felt EXTREMELY authentic. Very high quality ingredients. It is a tragedy this place isn’t more busy. It has a “hole-in-wall” exterior, but inside is very clean and welcoming, with excellent service. There are very, very few restaurants in the area I would give a 10/10. This is one of them. Incredible depth of flavor. Great people. You’re missing out if you haven’t tried it. I live nearby, this will become my new regular spot.”

“Have visited several times before. Last Thursday we tried your lunch for the first time. I had biscuits & gravy with spicy sausage and eggs over, huge and delicious. My wife ordered the veggie burger. Her salad was brought out, then 5 minutes later was advised they were out of it! She re-ordered the pot roast, but the brocolli was over cooked and the carrots were dry. Other than that, was good. There was a problem at check out with the purchase of gift cards, but was shortly resolved. We look forward to visiting again in the New Year, but only for breakfast or dinner.”

They took exceptional care of us on short notice, Hailey was our server our group also had Adrian assisting the other half of us. They were fantastic helped us celebrate a birthday as well as winning State with dessert, took orders between multiple parties and split checks like it was easy and were so pleasant with what could have been a very overwhelming and stressful to any server. The Manager Whitney went above and beyond to help us celebrate and that is rare these days! Definitely would recommend this restaurant and establishment 🤩🤩🤩”

“Placed an online order for drive-thru on 11/15 at 4:17 PM. When I pulled up to the window, Alisha (I believe that was her name) let me know they were working on my order and that it would be ready in just a few minutes. It was nice to have clear communication right away.
While waiting, I could hear Alisha helping the customer behind me, and she was excellent—clear, friendly, great volume, and you could tell she really knows how to provide good customer service. She made sure the customer got exactly what they wanted and double-checked everything at the end.
When my order was ready, I asked if everything was in one bag since it was a large order. She confidently assured me it was all correct. I joked that my family would be mad at me if something was missing, and she laughed and told me it had been checked twice.
Food was fresh, tasty, and my entire order was perfectly accurate. Thanks, Alisha, for the great service!”

“I came here for breakfast and had a great experience! Everyone was super nice, and the food was spot on fresh, hot, and delicious. My server, Belem, was amazing and super friendly. There was a guy being really rude and it seemed like he was trying to get free food from her, but she handled it so professionally and stayed kind the whole time. I can’t believe some people will do anything to get what they want from hardworking people. Big shoutout to Belem for keeping a great attitude!”

“Taco Star is the best taqueria type fast Mexican food around. Being from California, I miss California burritos, carne asada fries, etc. Taco Star is the fix! We actually drive 20 minutes for Taco Star when we are craving breakfast burritos. They have the best non smothered breakfast burritos around. We usually get a machaca breakfast burrito and grilled chicken burrito for later when we come. Their red and green salsas are also incredible. Friendly service and just so good!”

Korean • $$
“I’ve been coming to Silla Restaurant for many years, and it has always been consistently excellent. Galbi, bossam, and cold noodles have long been reliable choices here. But today, something genuinely stood out.
The flavors felt elevated—deeper, richer, and more refined than ever before. The galbi was perfectly balanced, tender, and full of that classic Korean depth. The bossam was clean, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. But what truly surprised me was the cold noodles.
The naengmyeon tasted noticeably more premium and authentic—the broth was richer, the balance sharper, and the texture spot-on. Every bite felt intentional and expertly done. Having lived in Korea, I have high standards for dishes like galbi and cold noodles, and this meal absolutely met (and exceeded) them.
It felt like the kitchen leveled up. The food today wasn’t just good—it was phenomenal. If you’ve been here before, it’s worth coming back. And if you haven’t, this is the kind of place that reminds you what truly great Korean food should taste like.”

“I've been eating at this restaurant for many years and, believe it or not, I've never had a bad meal...ever. It is packed 7 days a week and there's a reason why. Beyond the great variety of food with breakfast all day (139 menu items {not including 29 drink}). the help is absolutely incredible. You can tell they love the manager, Carlos, because they function as one big family. I'm 72 and have eaten, through my career, in countless restaurants in numberous cities and for the money (quite reasonable) this is my #1 favorite of them all (including many 5 star, exclusive restaurants. You won't find Beef Wellington, Duck à l’Orange,, Lobster Thermidor, Seafood Paella, Foie Gras., or Caviar on their menu, however; Escargot if you love real scratch Mexican/American cooking”

We also had their kabobs which were also delicious. The owner and the host at the restaurant are very nice people. They were so welcoming and generous. They brought out tea and desert for us for free since it was out first time there. Definitely recommend this place. The hospitality is what made us so happy and food is delicious as well. Thank you Watan bakery. IA looking forward to come back soon.”

If you are pressed for time, order ahead and will be waiting for you. Watch your spice level selection! Thai hot is authentic Chiang Mai spicy.

“I have only tried the breakfast burritos but they are the best I have found in the South Aurora area. The ingredients are well balanced and flavorful unlike some other places in the area that just fill the entire burrito with potatoes and very little of the other ingredients. I also like that they slightly grill the burrito as well. I did miss that it didn't come with some salsas on the side, but maybe you can request that. Fast and friendly service. I will definitely be back for more.”

“My husband and I were craving a warm and delicious pho. Umami sushi and pho, a brand-new establishment in town, exceeded our expectations from the moment we entered. The aroma of delectable and fresh food was exceptional. We ordered a couple of pho and the broth's flavor was intensely delicious and warming. The fresh vegetables tasted remarkably fresh. The entire venue was nice and neat, and the staff were very friendly, making us feel at home. We will definitely return soon, eager to try their sushi. I highly recommend stopping by for succulent pho and sushi. Umami Sushi bar and Pho es Nuevo aquí en Aurora, fuimos por primera vez y pasó la prueba del sabor. El caldo tenía mucho sabor y sustancia. El sabor lo fué todo. La atención fue magnífica, los dueños y todos los meseros siempre fueron muy amigables, atentos y serviciales con nosotros todo el tiempo que estuvimos ahí. El restaurante estaba muy limpio, ordenado y cada cosa en su lugar. Los baños estaban muy higiénicos y todo era nuevo en ese lugar. Totalmente recomiendo èste restaurante si quieres probar uno de los más ricos pho que existen en Aurora. Definitivamente regresaré por el sushi.”

“This restaurant was so yummy! I've been wanting to try it for a while. We went on a Friday night and from what I can see once they nail down some processes, this place will be so good. The waiters were super nice, but for example, we stood at the front door for nearly 10 min before someone came over to us. Once we were finally sat and ordered the food came surprisingly quickly.. for the most part. My husband ordered something from the rice kitchen, while I ordered a ramen bowl. My ramen came out nearly 15 min after his entree. I'd definitely recommend the food from this place and am hopeful that they can solidify some things and be great!”

“went with a friend. never again! was told it would be a 30min wait it looked not very busy. waited 45min to be seated. (The host seemed like she did not like her job at all) i ordered the avocado toast w/ side of bacon. the arugula piled high ruined the taste of meal, the tomatoes sliced where not ripe too hard to chew, the bacon was hard like it had been sitting around for a while. and the bread was thick and dry with barely any avocado. my friends meal all American breakfast cold potatoes and not good food she barely ate any of it. no apologies just an over worked waitress. ive been to syrup (different place) before way better food and service worth the extra drive!!!!”

“I’m here for the rice!!
I can’t speak to the service or atmosphere as I’ve only tried to go, but the food itself was pretty solid. The fried rice was excellent—full of flavor—and the yummy sauce too.
That said, I also ordered the crab wontons, and while the price looked good, the execution fell short. They were basically 95% wrapper and 5% filling (if that). I’d rather have fewer wontons that are generously filled than a larger number with barely anything inside.
Very much wish they had more vegetarian options.”

“We had the best time at Garden & Green for Breakfast with the Grinch at Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center. I took my mom and my three kids, and it was such a fun, memorable experience for all of us. The entire setup was extremely cute and festive perfect for kids. The Grinch interaction was entertaining and engaging, and my children absolutely loved it. You could tell a lot of thought went into creating a fun holiday atmosphere without it feeling rushed or chaotic. The food was a solid brunch-style buffet with a good variety, and everything we tried was fresh and enjoyable. It was the perfect balance of a family experience while still feeling well-organized and polished. Overall, this was such a special holiday outing and a great way to make memories with my kids. I would absolutely recommend it to families looking for a fun experience.”

Service was fast, attentive, and friendly. The staff consistently checked on the grill and replaced the metal plate whenever it started to burn, which kept the cooking experience smooth and enjoyable. Food variety was solid for an all-you-can-eat menu, with plenty of meats and appetizers to choose from.
The highlights for me were the LA galbi, butter shrimp, and calamari—all flavorful and cooked perfectly on the grill. Overall, everything we tried was delicious, and the price was very reasonable for an AYCE Korean BBQ.
A nice finishing touch: after we paid, they brought out a cup of iced sweet tea. It was refreshing and helped cleanse the palate after all the grilled meats.
A satisfying experience overall. Would definitely return.”
Hot Pot • $$
“K+ Hot Pot is a great spot in Denver if you’re craving a fun, interactive dining experience with plenty of variety. The restaurant is clean and modern, and the setup makes it easy whether you’re going solo or sharing with a group.
The ingredient selection is solid fresh veggies, thinly sliced meats, seafood options, and a good range of broths. The dipping sauce station is well-stocked, and you can easily customize everything to your taste. Portions are generous, and the all-you-can-eat style gives you the freedom to try a little of everything.
Service is friendly and quick, even when the place gets busy. Staff check in often, refill soups, and make sure you have what you need.
Overall, K+ Hot Pot offers a satisfying, flavorful meal and a fun experience. Definitely a good hot pot option in Denver if you’re looking for something hearty and customizable.”
African • $$
“I brought my daughter here to taste African food for the first time in celebration of black history month. We were specifically looking for west African food since her ancestry is mostly Nigerian. I got the grilled chicken plate and she got the lamb. I was pleasantly surprised at the low prices. Everything was hot and tasty. Service was friendly and fast. I would definitely recommend this place.”

Korean • $$
“The spicy soondubu was very good although it appeared to have diced spam in it. Would I order it again? Yes, but the ramen soondubu had that thin, packaged ramen look & were probably laden with palm oil. One star off for that. The service was good, but I couldn't believe that the waiter had to ask if we wanted our own set of banchan. There were 6 of us dining, so I would have assumed the answer was obvious: 2 sets, please. The banchan was varied & appetizing. 5 stars for the K-pop music. Not too loud & devoid of rap. Eating out is expensive nowadays. Get used to it, or stay home & cook your own meals.”

“If you order from the lunch menu be aware that portion size varies greatly even though the price is the same. Example: spaghetti with meat sauce comes in a kid size bowl with barely any meat for $10.99 and eggplant parm with a side of spaghetti comes on a large dinnerplate with a very large serving of eggplant and the same amount of spaghetti for $10.99 BIG DIFFERENCE! Choose according to your appetite and value factor. Otherwise the food was very good. Buon Appetite!”

“The food had to be the best BBQ I've had in Colorado over the past five years. The lady that took our order was sweet and polite. The food takes a minute to come out, but it literally comes off the grill so totally worth it. We got it to go, but the picnic tables and music were nice. They even gave us napkins, plates, and utensils in our to-go bag. We will definitely be back and recommend it to others.”

“We called for a reservation for a large group of 30 with just a few hours notice, the reservation quickly tuned into more like 50 of us for a Poms state celebration. They took exceptional care of us on short notice, Hailey was our server our group also had Adrian assisting the other half of us. They were fantastic helped us celebrate a birthday as well as winning State with dessert, took orders between multiple parties and split checks like it was easy and were so pleasant with what could have been a very overwhelming and stressful to any server. The Manager Whitney went above and beyond to help us celebrate and that is rare these days! Definitely would recommend this restaurant and establishment 🤩🤩🤩”

“Ordered 8 lunches for our crew at work, and was super impressed in the quality and sizes of our meals! Everyone loved their choices. I had the Mango Habanero wrap, and will be ordering again for sure, it was the perfect fresh, light, and delicious lunch. Absolutely amazing people and you can see the love that goes into everything they do. I highly suggest you stop by, say hi to Tex and Julie, and check out the yummy food that J&T's Kitchen has to offer!”

“My friends and I ate here for NYE—it was perfect. Susie, our server, was thoughtful and funny even though she was working solo and got slammed just as we sat down. She was quick to refill our sides and bring us our drinks. The food was incredible, some of the most delicious Korean we’ve found in Denver, and reasonably priced considering the quality of the meat for bbq and the quantity provided. I don’t think I’d enjoy any other BBQ as much any where else.”

“This has always been one of my favorite mexican restaurants. The service overall was fairly attentive until the end when you had to flag someone down to get utensils for our dessert. The margaritas are outstanding. The food is pretty good. There are definitely better places for mexican food but the overall vibe is great plus it's one of the few places that does a full fried fish.”

“We were the first two customers to arrive and had their undivided attention. If we lived closer we would probably come here weekly! Service was great attentive and fast without being bothersome even after more folks trickled in. We got everything we asked for (if you want salt and oil for the meat just ask). Food was generously given and swift. Everything tasted fresh. The first round is a bit of everything which we loved. The side dishes were great too - beef stew in this economy? 10/10 will be back.”

“I've been eating at this restaurant for many years and, believe it or not, I've never had a bad meal...ever. It is packed 7 days a week and there's a reason why. Beyond the great variety of food with breakfast all day (139 menu items {not including 29 drink}). the help is absolutely incredible. You can tell they love the manager, Carlos, because they function as one big family. I'm 72 and have eaten, through my career, in countless restaurants in numberous cities and for the money (quite reasonable) this is my #1 favorite of them all (including many 5 star, exclusive restaurants. You won't find Beef Wellington, Duck à l’Orange,, Lobster Thermidor, Seafood Paella, Foie Gras., or Caviar on their menu, however; Escargot if you love real scratch Mexican/American cooking”

“Have visited several times before. Last Thursday we tried your lunch for the first time. I had biscuits & gravy with spicy sausage and eggs over, huge and delicious. My wife ordered the veggie burger. Her salad was brought out, then 5 minutes later was advised they were out of it! She re-ordered the pot roast, but the brocolli was over cooked and the carrots were dry. Other than that, was good. There was a problem at check out with the purchase of gift cards, but was shortly resolved. We look forward to visiting again in the New Year, but only for breakfast or dinner.”

“I had an amazing experience at Denny’s thanks to our server, Jose. From the moment we sat down, he made us feel welcomed and genuinely cared for. His energy was warm, friendly, and professional—exactly what great service should be.
Jose checked on us consistently without being intrusive, made sure our food came out hot and exactly as ordered, and anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. His attention to detail and positive attitude really stood out. You can tell he takes pride in his job and truly values his guests.
In a world where great customer service is rare, Jose is a gem. He elevated our entire dining experience, and we left feeling appreciated and satisfied. Denny’s is lucky to have someone like him. We’ll definitely be coming back because of his outstanding service!”

“My husband and I were craving a warm and delicious pho. Umami sushi and pho, a brand-new establishment in town, exceeded our expectations from the moment we entered. The aroma of delectable and fresh food was exceptional. We ordered a couple of pho and the broth's flavor was intensely delicious and warming. The fresh vegetables tasted remarkably fresh. The entire venue was nice and neat, and the staff were very friendly, making us feel at home. We will definitely return soon, eager to try their sushi. I highly recommend stopping by for succulent pho and sushi. Umami Sushi bar and Pho es Nuevo aquí en Aurora, fuimos por primera vez y pasó la prueba del sabor. El caldo tenía mucho sabor y sustancia. El sabor lo fué todo. La atención fue magnífica, los dueños y todos los meseros siempre fueron muy amigables, atentos y serviciales con nosotros todo el tiempo que estuvimos ahí. El restaurante estaba muy limpio, ordenado y cada cosa en su lugar. Los baños estaban muy higiénicos y todo era nuevo en ese lugar. Totalmente recomiendo èste restaurante si quieres probar uno de los más ricos pho que existen en Aurora. Definitivamente regresaré por el sushi.”

I was just stopping in for a quick bite, but looking at what other people were getting is going to ensure that I go back for a meal. The awesome smell of lentil soup was so appealing, I almost got some to go. There's plenty of seating and the staff was so welcoming and courteous. Located on the first floor of an office tower, it was easy to find. You go straight back from the entrance, and there's a sign on the left just beyond the elevators. Prices were super reasonable, too!”
