The cuisine is Hainan type Chinese but not enjoyable. Both quality and quantity for price is not a good experience. Service is slow. The Chinese customers are loud. The Server was not informed of the ingredients in the entree. The chicken pieces could be hardly found. The owner was too busy to come and explain. Practically no suitable choices of vegetarian and vegan entrees. When she finally came unable to talk in English. I do not recommend this place. The Karaoke is also very loud. The sofas are worn out and tables are shaky. This restaurant if it continues the way it is doing business is bound to fail which is a real pity. I do not know the market size for this specific type of Chinese cuisine.

This place has one of the best noodle and rice dishes I've ever had. We had the beef brisket noodles and the chicken rice dish. I am in awe at how amazing this place is when it comes to their made-to-order and homey meals. It is a karaoke place first and restaurant second, so I was afraid it was going to be some overpriced gimmick like typical bar food, but I was happily wrong. I look forward to the next time we visit to try out additional dishes with friends and family, but the couple that we did try were phenomenal. The taste was so balanced, not too salty, not too bland, and had a considerate amount of protein. It was definitely worth the price! We did not have any issue getting seating since most people went there for the karaoke, not the restaurant. The dining setup is situated in what would have been the lobby, so it's a bit limited; however, we didn't have an issue getting seated right away. Parking shouldn't be an issue since it's located in a shopping center.

Arrived at 9:45p with three other ladies. We wanted to drink and sing some specific songs. Please let me say, the young man who greeted us & showed us in was very nice but didn't explain to us that their karaoke system was, for lack of a better word, whack. Basically, there's a screen with non-English characters and a bunch of photos of bands whose music isn't actually available. Wanna sing Fugees? Nope. Wanna sing Dolly Parton? Nope. Sublime? Nah. None of the typical stuff. And searching for those songs is difficult because you can only type in the first letter of each word in the name of the artist or song name.

I liked this place. The hot sauce they provide is actually hot and the portion of brisket is actually a lot for the dish. Very clean and quick service. Would come back.

The best noodle place in town! Actually the best noodle place I've ever been to! I will come back every time I come to Denver!

Absolutely loved the noodles. Bob is such a sweet person and amazing owner. The beef brisket noodles were great. We ordered the non spicy version and it was very tasty. It was our first stop into Colorado visiting from LA on a whim. The karaoke late night is all you need to keep you entertained. The dessert Bob made reminded me of home. Will absolutely come back again!

Excellent noodle soup and service. The chef Bob is very friendly! They also have some great authentic desserts. Who knew there was such a gem in Denver.

Amazing little restaurant. Incredible food. So far I have had the Braised Beef Noodle Soup which cooks overnight. Incredible flavor. The fried chicken is delicious. Lot of spices. The crawdads are the freshest in town and are lip smackin good. Pork belly rice dish. Sooo great! Bob the chef is a culinary genius. And is the friendliest guy you will ever meet. Crystal the waitress is very sweet and attentive.
OuterStace Namaste here
Incredible food! I will be back!

Paid cash. Waitress disappeared and would not bring change. Stole the remainder of my bill ~$15
Found this place on yelp and went there to try the chicken rice. They ran out! I went for the pork belly rice and was very happy with it. Every bite was tender with just the right amount of meat vs fat. A little drop of the homemade chili oil added the heat and kick I like every other bite. Owner is very friendly and you feel very welcome here. I will be back to try their famous beef noddle and of course the chicken rice!

I found this place on Yelp. It's between Safeway and Costco in a strip mall. The owner is very nice. I asked if I could have a combo of beef cuts and beef tendon in my noodles. The broth was amazing. The owner is originally from Laos, spent a lot of time in Thailand and speaks several languages. His family also served noodles in Laos many years ago. The broth is very aromatic and it's not oily. It's the best broth I've had in Aurora/Denver. We also ordered the season vegetable with minced pork. It's delicious. The season vegetable was A-choy Taiwanese lettuce and the pork has a lightly sweet soy sauce base. It would be perfect over a bowl of hot rice. The wait staff are very helpful and will help navigate through the menu with you to ensure what you order is something you'll enjoy. They were very attentive for a small mom/pop restaurant. I can't wait to try more items on the menu! What a gem and a total find. I had no idea this place existed. Also, don't be intimidated by the Chinese character signage in the restaurant, fluent English is spoken. One of the servers raves about the salt and pepper chicken wings. I can't wait to try that. Also, the pork belly -- that's delicious too. It has hints of anise, ginger, soy sauce - slow cooked and served over rice with a soy sauce egg. You won't find this in very many places.

I have been here many times and it's always fun. I used to come here for Chinese food and karaoke, now they even have restaurant in the front!!! The prices cost little more at the end of the night but it's because it's REAL Chinese food!!! I'm loving how close this place is to my house and how late they are open. I work long and random hours, so sometimes by the time i finish with work about 10pm or 11pm they are still open for Chinese food, super convenient to me and the owner are so nice and always remember me. Support all the way

This is probably the best noodle I've tried. The soup is so flavorful. The briskets are tender and juicy. I kept thinking of the noodle and the chicken wings after the first time I came. So I went there for the second and third time. Couldn't get tired of their food. The chief said they will have spicy crawfish very soon.

Nice people and the sound systems are good. Great and unique experience for a first date. It's fun, but, eat before you go, the food is pricey and meh
