    Sambal noodles with shrimp
    Kristana K.

    I returned from a business trip and picked up food to go from this establishment. I was shocked how high the prices were first of all. $24-$27 for noodle dishes without meat and another seven dollars to add chicken tofu or and eight dollars to add shrimp and I think beef. So we are talking up to $32 for a simple pad Thai dish or sambal noodle dish. Being that I hadn't had breakfast, I ordered it. The sambal noodles with shrimp is what I ordered and while it was large, the snap peas and carrot shreds were overcooked and the shrimp was tiny and that was about all there was to the dish other than noodles and chili. The level of spice was great, but there was really no other flavor and I had to drain it and soy sauce to give it some kind of flavor at all. I was very unimpressed and can get a better dish of noodles from the local dive Thai joint for $14. I ordered the lime and coconut cheesecake which looks really good. Haven't tried it yet. Again, overpriced at $14! This place is a rip off for the quality of food.

    Hmmmm, maybe because it's newish- but, you know how you judge a good Mexican restaurant on the basics like rice and beans as an indicator of how good the rest of the meal could be? I ordered the cucumbers and they were ok but felt confusing- sliced marinated ones and then chopped sauced ones- did they run out of the pickled ones? On to a simple side of white rice- eeesh. White rice can be such a bowl of delicious comfort if you know how to make it right! This was somewhere between long grain and left out to dry. This is an upscale Asian concept restaurant! I had the black pepper udon noodles and they were so over sauced- which promoted the ordering of the white rice- disappointed again in the pork belly added to the noodles- dry, overcooked with none of the unctuous fat- why even get it? Service was fine but again maybe it's just because they are new? Brought me ice water with no ice and then when I asked, I got a plastic cup of ice? Just weird. I've been to other locations that were better but still not great. Must be my Asian blood and expectations! This was a miss.

    If this is a good representation of Cholon, then I'll pass. Won't visit this location or any other location. This was mid, and like another said, that is generous. We paid $100 including tax and tip for the below: - Cho dumplings - crunchy pork potstickers - bao bun pork belly - Mongolian beef Everything tasted frozen, including the rice. The best thing we had was the service and the sauce they came with the potstickers. The Cho dumplings were def saucy and that they sprayed at us when we bit into them. Not worth it. Everything was ok. I would pass at this place and go to Marczyk next door instead.

    Chicken Fried Rice
    DeAngelo W.

    I got to the airport almost an hour and a half early and was hungry and wanted something good and different. Cholon happened to be right next to my gate I stopped in to have a bite. I ordered the chicken fried rice. It was good the water chestnuts gave it a refreshing crunch. The egg was crispy yet good it could've been undercooked just a little bit more. The Saigon old-fashioned was refreshing and not too heavy. Everything came out in a reasonable amount of time. The service was friendly and warm. The restaurant did have an upscale get relaxed feel to it. Glad I stopped in. I'd look to try the wings and the pad Thai next time.

    Airport food usually deserves a participation trophy, but ChoLon is my new airport obsession. Fantastic flavors and solid portions. Hands down my favorite spot to eat before flying through DEN. 5/5 perfection. I'll be back every time!

    Chicken sandwich
    Nishika T.

    Stopped here before our flight for a quick meal. Sadly breakfast stops being served at 11am so we had to stick with the lunch menu. We got the Korean spicy chicken sandwich and edamame. The food came out quick and the staff were great but the food wasn't my favorite. The edamame was grilled and super salty from soy sauce. The Korean spicy chicken sandwich had an interested after taste. Overall the restaurant wasn't too crowded unlike other options so that was nice.

    Fried Rice Wok Bowl w/ Pork Belly
    John H.

    We worked with Chef Lon back in our old BrüFrou: craft beer + culinary pairing events days. I remember whatever local brewery we paired him with, he would come up spectacular flavor sensations in his one bite dishes. Tonight as I'm waiting for my flight, I self-paired a refreshing OLD SAIGON cocktail made with Benchmark bourbon, Thai basil, orange & cherry with the FRIED RICE WOK BOWL made with wok fried egg, crispy shallots and I added the amazing pork belly-- bite-sized umami bombs of deliciousness!!! If you're ever in C concourse, this is the place :-)

    Cucumber salad
    Ania L.

    The restaurant couldn't accommodate our under an hour turn around to a flight but the bar served a crazy good Bloody Mary and got us a round of dim sum and the best cucumber salad ever. I can confidently recommend.

    Ryan D.

    It was far too expensive but I understand I'm in an airport. I had the cucumber salad and black pepper udon. The cucumber salad was basically cut cucumbers with Italian dressing. Fresh but meh. The udon was decent but I can't imagine returning if it was a local restaurant. I gave it a 3 stars because the staff was very nice from the desk girl to the the servers. They were the best. If all I was reviewing was the staff it would be 5 stars.

    Mongolian beef & jasmine rice !
    Chau T.

    Found this spot while waiting to board. Food is pretty Asian , tastes okay , not super authentic, kinda mixed cuisine. Still way better than the usual fast food in the food court. They have drinks too--I got the Full Moon Margarita. Not too strong but pretty good, nice to just chill and relax before boarding.

    Korean fried chicken sandwich with tasty fries
    Chee K.

    Had a layover with enough time for a leisurely lunch. After trying to go to Rootdown and them not having anything appealing, I looked this place in. I had a server Jordan who was on his game but everyone was super helpful and fast. I ordered an IPA called Jiggly wiggly which was perfect. Then came the main attraction, a spicy Korean friend chicken with fries. I'm not sure what the chicken was coated in but it was red and spicy (not too), pickles and a delicious brioche bun. The chicken was white breast meat, thick and juicy. The fries were good too. I could only eat half of the sandwich but I don't think there could be a better fried chicken sandwhich at DIA. Win!

    This is the 2nd time in 2 weeks we've visited this Chopin location and we will make this our regular stop whenever we are at DIA. My husband and I had a breakfast sandwich with the most amazing house made bread! We also shared the pork dumplings because, well because why not?!? Fire! Every. Single. Bite. Even the breakfast potatoes with the dusting of Korean spices were a celebration on the tongue. And the staff is so gracious and accommodating. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and super friendly. I no longer dread eating at the airport!

    I love ChoLon. I have been a fan since ChoLon - Downtown opened many years ago. Popped in here at the airport for a quick morning bite because I wasn't really in the mood for breakfast foods. Service was good. The fried potstickers were good. But, jeez, these were the worst service of French onion soup dumplings I have ever had at a ChoLon. They really did taste quite old. The covering was leathery??? The interior was overly salty, and the Gruyere cheese did not taste quite right to me. We were a little pressed for time so I didn't say anything or send them back, but wow these were so much worse than any other batch of the French onion soup dumplings I have ever had.

I ordered quite a bit for myself because this was my lunch/dinner for the day: To drink, I had a 6oz. glass of Pinot noir. For an appetizer, I had the edamame. For my main dish, I had the New Style Salmon Sashimi and a cucumber avocado roll. For me, this wasn't too much food because the salmon was served without rice and in a light sauce, which is why I also ordered the veggie roll for a little more substance. Overall, as far as airport sushi goes, this was pretty decent and I would come here again. The salmon was a little fishy, which was disappointing. I love salmon, I eat it quite often, and I usually don't find it fishy if it's quality salmon. The service took long. The sign outside the restaurant says "seat yourself", so I sat down at a table for two and no one greeted me for more than 10 minutes. I was confused if I was supposed to order at the bar or wait for a server because I didn't see any servers around. Needless to say, someone eventually came around. I waited about 20 minutes+ for my food after I placed my order. Since I had the time, I didn't mind. I also was able to charge my phone at the table, which was awesome!

But she soon realised and let us in knowing we had no choice because our flight had just landed. Anyways that was a very short interaction.

With so many competing lounges at this busy airport, the clear separation here is the food. During my visit I really liked the spicy tofu bowl, the guava hoisin ribs, and the kim chee pork gyoza. Head over to the self served buffet to grab your small bites. If you want to nap in the relaxation room or take a shower, make these reservations at the front when you check in. Capital One Lounge Denver gets five stars and many return visits.

They were really busy, my first bartender (Alex) acknowledged me right off the bat, got me a beer and I sat here for a bit. I have a 4-hour layover so I'm not in a huge rush for anything. I sat for a bit and finished my beer and the second bartender (Alexis) came up to me and asked me if I needed anything, so I ordered some cheese curds. They came out super fast, I wasn't even expecting them. They were really good! I'm probably going to order hot wings here in a few, Because by the time I land tonight I won't have any food options. I ordered a double vodka/soda w/lime, and my bartender made it REAL proper like pahtna! I'll snap a few more pics, and I'll order some wings, I'm sure they'll be good.

On this visit, we shared the fish and chips and a plate of mac and cheese. I was surprised by how good the fish was. It was moist inside while still being crispy on the outside. The fries looked good, but unfortunately, they were soggy. The mac and cheese was decent, though nothing especially memorable. Our server was friendly and checked in on us periodically. I think the reason I keep coming back is that the restaurant does not feel cramped. The tables are not packed on top of each other, and after spending a couple of hours on a crowded plane, I appreciate being able to sit down and eat without feeling like I am fighting for space.
