Comfort Food Restaurants near Aurora, CO

“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 🤩🤩🤩“

“This restaurant used to have a location in Florence, AL almost 20 years ago. When I saw there was one close to me, I had to go try it out, and it did not disappoint 😋 Please bring this back to Alabama (Florence/Huntsville/Birmingham)“

“Excellent Pad Thai. Very well balanced spice without overpowering amounts of Tamarind. Fresh bean sprouts. Food made by a craftsman! If you want to muscle it up with chili spice the blend they prepared lit the fire. The mango sticky rice for dessert really is memorable.“

“I had one of the best burritos ever!!“

“Great food. Delicious taste. Incredible service“

“Recently scheduled a reservation for my executive team at Whit's End and was very pleased. Seamless from start to finish. Easy to make a reservation, and staff was great at communicating when I called and adjusted our reservation twice based on our fluctuating team needs and attendees. Was the perfect spot for our team to unwind after a long day of meetings, and the food was superb. Recommend for both personal dining or team outings.“

“GREAT almond croissant!!!!!“

“Pho & Bar is a really solid Vietnamese spot with a modern, trendy atmosphere and a menu that goes beyond just basic pho. The pho is definitely the standout. The broth is flavorful without being overly sweet or heavy, and they have some more interesting options like curry pho, short rib pho, and duck pho that you don’t see everywhere. The curry pho in particular is worth trying if you want something a little different.

The appetizers are also surprisingly good. The dumplings, pork egg rolls, wings, and crab cheese wontons are all solid choices, and the happy hour makes it much easier to try a bunch of different things without spending a fortune. Portions are generous too, especially with the vermicelli bowls and banh mi. They definitely don’t skimp on the meat.

Service has generally been friendly and helpful, even when the restaurant is busy. Staff seem happy to explain the different broths, make suggestions, or bring extra basil, lime, or cilantro if you ask. The atmosphere is fun and casual, with good music, a nice outdoor area, and a more modern feel than the typical neighborhood pho restaurant.

There are a few downsides. Prices can feel a little high for pho, especially once you add drinks or appetizers, and the portions of herbs and sides that come with the pho can be a little skimpy. Service also seems like it can be inconsistent. Most experiences sound very good, but when something goes wrong, the wait can be frustratingly long.

Overall, though, the food is what makes this place worth coming back to. The broth has real flavor, the menu has some creative options, portions are good, and the happy hour is a nice bonus. It’s a good choice if you want Vietnamese food in a more lively, modern setting rather than a traditional no-frills pho shop.“
