You know a place is good when we come twice in a row during vacation!…read more We were in CO for the Rocky Mountain Siberian Husky Club specialty and I was craving Thai food. As I hail from CA, we have plenty of authentic Thai restaurants to choose from. As such, I was looking for a small, authentic Thai place near Brighton, where the show was being held. Ponsawan came recommended, and I was immediately drawn to this place especially with its namesake. Some of the best Thai places I've been to have "difficult"-sounding names. It was dinner the first time we went, and we were seated quickly. Our server was friendly, and gave us time to peruse the menu. I went with the pineapple fried rice while my husband went with the pork pad Thai. The pineapple fried rice had a lovely wok hei and there were plenty of fresh pineapples as well. I loved the cashews on the side, and the crispy cucumbers. Portion size was perfect. My husband's pad Thai was saucy and tamarind-y. Personally, I prefer a drier pad Thai, but he enjoyed this, I think mainly because of how strong the tamarind flavor was. Our server asked if we wanted to try the mango sticky rice since she said it was mango season, but we politely declined. The next day, we were both craving Ponsawan again, so we came for a late lunch. The owner recognized us and welcomed us back in. This time, we also got drinks and an app. I went with the Thai tea and my husband went with the Thai coffee. Both were not too sweet and a good strength. The app we chose was the dumplings, which were fried to perfection and came with the most delicious dipping sauce. As far as our entrees, I went with the pork pad kee mao and my husband went with the yellow curry fried rice. Our server apparently heard his order incorrectly and gave him the pineapple fried rice, but apologized and was quick to rectify the situation. As such, I received my food first, and had to wait a few more minutes before we could eat together. The pad kee mao had the perfect amount of spice, and the pork was tender. The yellow curry fried rice again had a lovely wok hei and the curry powder was delightfully pungent. Both times we dined, our food didn't take long to arrive at all. I'd say less than 15 minutes for both of our dishes. They had lunch specials, but for the price point of the entrees, it was a no brainer to just order entrees. The food was super affordable and the portion sizes were not skimpy at all. Not huge, but definitely not skimpy. Ponsawan is easily on my favorites list for the Denver area and we will most certainly be back the next time we go to CO! (I will also need to try their curries, so that is a high priority for our next visit.)

My little family and I came an hour before close, in most places, that is not a big deal…read more Soon as we walked in, the employees saw us and groaned and were already acting like they were inconvenienced, muttering some things in their native language. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. They quickly sat us down and rushed us to place an order, while frequently looking at their watch. It was 8:10 PM, the place closes at 9. The place had maybe 4 tables occupied at the time. We were able to place our order quickly as we had looked at the menu before coming. The food came out promptly which I appreciated. It was average at best, maybe would have tasted better if we didn't feel like we were being rushed or an inconvenience. We felt awkward the entire time due to the tone that was already set.

We stayed at a nearby hotel, and were looking for a good non-chain restaurant to have dinner at…read more So very glad we found this place on Yelp. Viewed the menu online, and it looked good, so we decided to go there. It was only an hour before closing time on a Sunday night, but we were welcomed in, and seated quickly. They also have a kiosk if you want to place a to-go order in person. Our server, who we later found out is the owner, was a friendly and helpful lady named Grace. I ordered a cup of Wonton Soup to start, and the portion was very large, especially considering the reasonable price. It was absolutely Delicious. Next, I had the Bo Bo Platter, which were assorted appetizers. The only Vegetarian item on it were the egg rolls, so my friend didn't have anything, and it was a lot of food, all for me. I enjoyed everything, especially the chicken wings, beef skewers and fried shrimp. For my entree, I got the Sizzling Udon Noodles. Unfortunately, I was a bit stuffed, so I couldn't finish it. I took some back to the hotel, along with a couple of unfinished appetizers. I heated them in the room's microwave the next morning, and although not as good as when freshly made, I still enjoyed my "breakfast." At no time did we feel rushed, even though we ended up being there at least 30-45 minutes past closing. Grace said she had recently taken over ownership, and I so hope she is successful. If we ever find ourselves in Aurora, CO, we will hopefully be able to stop by.

Decided on a quick dinner near the airport and close to Costco…read more Service was good! Ambiance is nice and basic For apps we tried the Beef Rolls: it's wrapped in rice paper and it had a nice chewy texture. It wasn't what I expected but it was still good. The peanut sauce was a bit more savory than I expected too. Sushi: we tried some veggie rolls Sweet Potato Rolls: they tasted good, but the sweet potato tasted more fried rather than actual potato Peanut Avocado: I loved the crunch from the peanut, however I wished it was salted peanuts and not a sweet peanut. Sesame Tofu: served with a side of fried rice. The tofu was glazed in a very sweet sauce. Perfectly crispy and the rice was nice and basic. Overall I loved it! I hope to be back since it was good service and honestly decent price

I order the Laab at a heat level 3 and I enjoyed it very much with the exception of the Stick Rice, it was either under cooked or overcooked as it was a solid brick of hard rice that could not be broken up in the juices of the Laab nor the curry... Flavors were fine, but execution was poor. 3.3 starz...

The pad see ew and tom kha were both really flavorful. I ordered mine at the lowest spice level and it still had a nice kick, so heads up if you're spice-sensitive, even "mild" here has some heat. The egg rolls were the one miss. They felt undercooked, so I'd probably skip those next time and stick to the mains. Overall really happy with this one and excited to have a solid Thai spot in the rotation. Will definitely be back for the pad see ew and tom kha!

The portions were generous and definitely left me feeling like I got my money's worth. What really impressed me were the egg rolls--they stayed surprisingly crispy even as takeout! The fresh vegetables that came with them were also excellent. They were very generous with the bean sprouts, jalapeños, and basil, which I really appreciated with the pho. Parking was easy and plentiful, and the service was quick and efficient. Overall, a great spot for a satisfying Vietnamese meal, especially when you're grabbing takeout. Definitely would come back!

Wow ok... idk what what this was. I used to come here so…read moremuch they knew me by name and order. This time coming was horrendous? All 8 servers are at the front podium talking like high schoolers, barely greet you, sit you down, take your order and once they bring you your food that's the last you see of em; and then they ask for a tip lol. I will say I sat next to a Vietnamese girl (I'm half Vietnamese btw just doesn't show THAT much) and they stopped next to me to check on her twice lol; looked at me and kept walking. After I was going to walk out one of the workers turned the corner and we where walking towards each other, and played a game of chicken basically, he didn't even bother trying to move so I didn't either at this point I was already annoyed and we almost ran into each other. Also! This USED to be one of the best pho places, The noodles were kinda chewy and the broth was absolutely flavorless. They did give a good amount of meat though.

The outing, as I call these eating feasts with my group, was set up like a buffet-styled dining where a group of 14 diners enjoyed a variety of Filipino-Thai dishes, which also included one Thai iced tea or coffee and a halo halo dessert for each diner. Representing Filipino, these dishes were pancit canton noodle dish w/shrimp, pork adobo, chicken and pork BBQ skewers, and garlic fried rice (vegetarian). Representing Thai, the dishes were pad see ew with beef, eggplant with tofu (vegetarian), pad kra pow with crispy pork belly, and chop suey vegetables with Thai house sauce (vegetarian). We also ate tempura shrimp, fish cakes, and lumpia as appetizers. I started my first plate with a scoop of garlic fried rice, a chicken BBQ skewer, some pork adobo pieces, eggplant with tofu, pancit canton noodle, pad kra pow, and chop suey veggies. Added all of the appetizers too. As I enjoyed eating the food on my plate, I focused on the flavors and the spices used in each dish, the texture of each food item, and how each item I ate made me feel. My top favorite dishes were the cancit canton noodle, pork adobo, chicken skewer, and the fish cake. These dishes were amazing. The spices used to bring these dishes were the next level of deliciousness. I enjoyed everything else I ate except for the spices used in the crispy pork belly for the pad kra pow, and I found the halo halo dessert, which is very colorful to see and mixed, was way too sweet for me. Asking for the group's feedback and what were their favorite dishes and why, they wrote their favorites were the eggplant, pork adobo, and fish cakes. One person said it perfectly: "The shrimp tempura was perfectly golden, light, and incredibly crispy with fresh, juicy shrimp inside. The fish cakes were flavorful, tender, and cooked just right. And the Filipino lumpia? Hands down the star of the plate--crispy, perfectly seasoned, and so addictive that one is never enough. Perfectly cooked noodles tossed in a flavorful, well-balanced sauce with fresh ingredients in every bite. The garlic rice was fragrant, fluffy, and packed with rich garlic flavor that paired perfectly with adobo." This summary was our eating experience here at Real Thai Mile High. The staff was attentive to our eating experience, and the ambiance was delightful since we were able to talked, laughed, and connect with each other without seeing and hearing other nearby diners' conversations. Eating with friends is great, but the best way to enjoy the dining experience and bringing it to the next level is doing family style: order a bunch of food and split the bill. Great way to be exposed to different dishes, different flavors, and different eating experience. I plan to stop by one day and dine, but with my foodies friends!

Love the feel of the restaurant too. Feels like your standard Thai restaurant with a farmhouse vibe, hence the name. Tom kha soup and Pad Kee Mao were top notch.
