Bun Cha
Megan B.

Went again and got the Bun Cha and it was crazy delicious with all the sweet, savory, salty and acidic flavors. I will come back just for this dish.

I've been to Dan Da before, and this visit reminded me why I needed to come back sooner. Most of the time when I go out for Vietnamese food, I end up ordering pho or bánh mì without thinking twice. Dan Da is one of the few places that's gotten me to branch out, and I'm glad I did. The Bún Chả Hà Nội was probably my favorite. Putting everything together yourself made every bite a little different, and the pork was so flavorful. I also really enjoyed the coconut curry claypot with shrimp. It was rich and comforting without feeling too heavy. The shaken beef was cooked well, and the shrimp and crab mini rolls disappeared pretty quickly. I like that the menu has dishes you don't see everywhere. It makes coming here feel a little different from your average Vietnamese restaurant. Already looking forward to trying something new the next time I'm back.

Quick attentive service with dishes packed with flavor. Dan Da makes me miss my mom's cooking and brings a ton of nostalgia. I love all the blue decor; it's a bit soothing as I grub to my heart's content. Highly recommend their tower to share with family and/or friends.

Awesome ambiance with great music and artwork.

Excellent legit Vietnamese cuisine. Went to Dan Da for a friends birthday and I was blown away by the ambiance, service and seriously good food. Great menu with something for everything...my friends are pretty much pescatarians so we ate mostly seafood....and their seafood here is really fresh...the calamari was a tad tough. Each dish had unique flavor profiles and none overlapped. Love the crispy shrimp and crab rolls. Great papaya salad. Wonderful seafood curry...nice and spicy. Our server was warm, friendly and efficient. Prices are not divey....For the 4 of us it was $200...but we ordered a ton and had 4 glasses of win and a beer. Great music and pretty space. Pro Tip: There is free public parking the back and you can enter through the back door. Kudos Dan Da!!!!

It's been a long time coming but Dan Da is hands down my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Colorado and probably in the US. When you think of Vietnamese, Americans tend to think of Pho, noodle bowls and lemongrass chicken but we need more places the focuses in home cooking and dishes that locals eat. Ingredients are fresh and dishes pack a powerful flavor bomb...I mean wow! The use of shrimp paste and other traditional ingredients really elevate flavors that many Americans are not used to, but you have to try it to understand. Their claypots are a must order and with a side of rice....you'll be eating for days! The star of the night was the pork and calamari claypot which is cooked in shrimp paste and your favorite Vietnamese spices and herbs. You'll finish bowls of rice with this dish, it packs so much flavor that you'll be wanting more. It's a great mix of salty, sweet and umami from the fermented shrimp paste. The Vietnamese curry was thick and packed with succulent shrimp. The veggies at a very nice brightness to balance out the coconut milk. The last dish we had was a shrimp lemon grass in the clay pot and that was also a hit with everyone! Service is amazing and they definitely know how to recommend dishes to match your taste buds. They went out of the way to help everyone and it shows. If you need a new spot, check Dan Da!

Bun Bo Hue
Paul N.

This is easily one of my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the Denver metropolitan area. As a first generation Vietnamese, I have pretty high standard for good Vietnamese food. But thay doesn't even compare to my parents, who was born and raised in Vietnam. So, when we go out, it can be difficult to get their thumbs up for good Vietnamese food. But Dan Da did it. Not once, but multiple times. Now full disclosures, when I took my parents here, I already know they liked the food from our experience at New Saigon, which my parents loved so much they were saddened when they heard the restaurant closed. So it was to their surprise that they got to eat here when they visited. Everything was good, and we ended up getting a crazy amount of food. From the Dan Da Tower to the Bun Bo Hue to the Clay Pot Shrimp, every dish was exceptional and more important, every dish reminded my parents of home. This restaurant is pretty much a cant's miss here in Denver for any fans of Vietnamese food. I've taken friends and other family here and this restaurant just cannot miss.

This isn't your typical pho-focused Vietnamese restaurant. They serve bold, rustic, and more traditional Vietnamese dishes that really stand out. Great service as well! The place gets very busy, so if you're coming with a group, I highly recommend making a reservation. After eating here, it might be my new favorite Vietnamese restaurant. There's parking available behind the restaurant, and their family also owns the bakery next door, definitely worth stopping by to check it out as well. Dan Da Tower - Pork Skewers, Shrimp, Pork, Shrimp Egg Rolls, Shrimp Paste, Soft Shell Crab. A little expensive, but it contains a lot of meat. It's basically a DIY spring roll. Great for a group! The crispy shirmp was my favorite! White baby clams - Absolutely a 5/5. The spicy tamarind sauce was bold, tangy, and perfectly balanced. The combination of lemongrass, scallions, shallots, chili, butter, and fresh cilantro created layers of savory and slightly sweet flavors. The clams were tender and soaked up the sauce beautifully. Do watchout for the season, because the sizing of the clams can be small Timeless Spicy Lemongrass/Xao Sa Ot: The protein I picked was a combination of seafood, but you can do others like chicken or just shrimp. I wish the sizing could be a little bigger, but I'll accept what I get since it's very tasty. If you're someone who likes spicy food, I'd ask them to make it more spicy. It came with jasmine rice.

What a fantastic restaurant! I've tried a few Vietnamese spots but this is by far my favorite. I enjoyed everything i tried but especially loved the coconut claypot curry with shrimp and the noodle bowls with the variety of meats. The sauce for the noodle bowls was incredibly flavorful. It's a relatively small restaurant and they take both walk ins and reservations. The area itself on colfax is not the nicest but don't let that deter you, this spot is well worth the visit! There is a small parking lot in the back and you can also enter through the back as well. I was sad to see they were no longer on the in kind app though

Dan Da was such a great experience from start to finish. The service was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which immediately set the tone. I really appreciated the chance to try something different from the usual Vietnamese go-to like pho. I ordered their shared soup, the Golden Chicken Mac Soup, and it was absolutely delicious. It reminded me of a comforting chicken noodle soup but with its own unique twist. I loved the abundance of fresh veggies and the very generous portions of chicken. It's the perfect dish for a cold day warm, hearty, and satisfying. I also tried their lychee limeade, which was amazing. It wasn't overly sweet, had just the right amount of tartness, and was super refreshing. Overall, Dan Da offers comforting, flavorful food with great service, and I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu.

TS5. CA CHIEN//DEEP FRIED FISH with ginger and tamarind sauce.
Kimberly N.

Never judge a place just from the outside, because you might be very surprised how happy and satisfied your stomach will be in a few minutes. My husband and I met a group of 10 friends at Dan Da for lunch today. The drive here was long, and if it wasn't for meeting my DHHA group, I would have never drive to here. Why? There are a lot of great Vietnamese restaurants in the Denver area. Just the Little Saigon district on Federal Blvd alone has so many options, so why drive the extra distance just for Vietnamese food, right? WRONG! Even though the back entrance to the restaurant was not pleasing to the eye and was not what I envisioned, walking through the restrooms and then the kitchen area, I could already feel the good vibes and great energy this place has. We were promptly seated. Once my group of 6 was ready to order, the owner happily took our order and acknowledged our great choices including their famous dish, the Dan Da Tower. The Tower is a must for a group of at least 4 to share. I loved the two full plates of different types of meat choices including deep fried soft shell crabs, shrimp paste, grilled pork and shrimp, and egg rolls. The third plate was filled with bean sprouts, pickled carrots and radish, and some greens. Along with this Tower came rice paper and water. Yes, you "roll your own" meal with this dish, and man, dipping this rolled of food in Dan Da's special fish sauce was so good! My mouth was having a wonderful dance party, and all of the taste buds were invited! The other favorite dishes were the bỏ lúc lắc (shaken beef), deep fried red snapper, and catfish in clay pot. I would skip the pork belly and calamari clay pot. Instead, use that money and order canh chua (spicy hot & sour fire pot). I cannot stop my review here without given props to the waitstaff. Along with a younger waiter, the owner served as one of our waiters, and I must say that they made us feel very welcome and truly appreciated us for coming in and try their food. I hope your adventure eating here will be as joyful as our group of 6 with 2 tables. Share and share your food with each other so that you can get a chance to eat and experiment different types and choices of food. Minimum of diners per table: four. Maximum should be six. My total grade for Dan Da is a solidan A.

My understanding is after growing up in her family's New Saigon restaurant and then running the very large Savory Vietnam for five years, chef An Nguyen was burned out and needed a break. However, she soon opened this charming, tiny space that specializes in rustic, country-style Vietnamese dishes (the name means, "people of the countryside"). It is also conveniently right next door to her sister, Thoa's, fantastic bakery/sandwich shop, Banh & Butter. The space is elegant, but tiny with about eight to ten tables, four along a banquette, one booth, and a small bar with some seating in the back corner. There's an open kitchen in the rear and a huge, stunning mural on the east wall. Service was efficient, prompt, accomodating, and very friendly. The bar is pretty limited if you want a mixed drink, except for the five very creative signature cocktails. There are very limited wine options, eight beers, and several tea choices. We started with the Shrimp & Pork Eggrolls which came with a large pile of rice noodles, lettuce, herbs, cucumber, pickled carrots, and daikon. They were piping hot, had a nice crunch, and were delicious. I then had the Shaken Beef Tenderloin which came with a generous portion of perfectly rare beef chunks, soy, garlic, black pepper, romaine, cherry tomatoes, the house fish sauce vinaigrette, and a huge bowl of perfectly-cooked jasmine rice. The beef, sauce, and accompaniments were all delicious. My friend had the "Family" Deep Fried Fish. He chose the sea bass option. This was nicely presented, beautifully cooked, and accented by a great ginger fish sauce. He loved it. The space is cozy, the service was great, the food was terrific, and we had a nice time. It's not cheap, but the prices are reasonable for the quality of the ingredients and the execution. The menu is quite extensive including salads, soups, noodle bowls, rice plates, hot pots, rolls, lots of seafood, and various specialty plates to accomodate almost anyone's taste. Check this out!

I am sad I cannot give Dan Da a higher rating. It is truly my favorite restaurant in town, and always exceeds expectations, but tonight it went to a whole new level. I had two dishes I had never had before (Bò Kho, I believe, and Bún Chả), and each was a totally new experience and amazing. As always the hospitality is great and the ambiance has stayed fresh. A must dine at (and then again and again)!

Been waiting forever to try this place and better yet, I got to go with my friend! Right on Colfax next to Banh and Butter, this is place a must! The decor is pretty modern with a twist and not your usual Vietnamese restaurants, so that's a nice change for me. Parking on the streets, but I recommend parking in the back. Lots more space without dealing with the oncoming traffic and there's a back door to enter, so you don't have to go all the way around the front. Service was good, but our waiter was quite busy and didn't give us water until I asked, no biggie. The room was not all filled, but I can see how the waiters are very attentive to their customers. I had ordered the NB4 - Bun Thit Xau Hanoi - Pork Skewer Combo and my friend ordered the SR3 Com Thit Nuong. My NB4 was a really good size for the price and better yet, the presentation and the flavor was on point! I had to ask for a separate plate to take out the eggroll, pork, and shrimp so I can get to the bottom of the bowl! Love the charboiled pork, the little black crisps makes it all. I didn't care too much about the shrimp, but good to have. Eggrolls were delicious and filled with meat, unlike some restaurants opt to have only veggies in it. My friend devoured her plate and didn't even speak to me lol. One other time I ordered the NB4 take out and it still tasted the same with the same portion. (sometimes restaurants can give you less or more, all depends!) I came back another time with another friend. I tried their CP8 - clay pot with pork belly and calamari with shrimp paste. It's served with rice and cucumbers. Woooo it was soooo good! It's good portion to share, but my friend wanted to try something new...to her. She ordered the Bun Bo Hue and spring rolls. She liked that it was not Pho and it was something she could decide whether she liked it or not and she did! Overall, I love coming here! They represent Vietnamese food very well, Southern and Northern!

A true hidden gem - do not miss this place!…read more This Vietnamese restaurant is one of those spots you hope stays a local secret forever, but it's just too good not to share. The food, portions, flavors, and overall experience are absolutely outstanding. First - you cannot leave without trying the homemade ginger ale. I have no idea what magic they put into it, but it is truly out of this world. It's unique, refreshing, and easily one of the most memorable drinks I've had at a restaurant. The pho is consistently delicious - packed with incredible flavor. The sesame chicken is another standout, but honestly, the curries are where this place really shines. My friend said the lamb curry was one of the best things he has ever eaten, and I completely understand why. The curries come out piping hot and overflowing- literally. The atmosphere is just as special as the food. The inside has such a great vibe - cozy, welcoming, and full of character. They also have the cutest little patio that feels like a hidden oasis with all the greenery and homey touches. The management and staff are phenomenal. They are always friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about your experience. They constantly check in and somehow always seem to surprise you with something extra. You can tell this place is run by people who truly love what they do. We've done both takeout and dine-in, and the quality never changes. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and made with care. They also have great vegan options, so there really is something for everyone. They are connected with the same ownership/management as Golden Bánh Mì next door, which is also incredible - clearly there is a passion for creating amazing food and experiences.

We came here to celebrate my cousin's birthday, and we had a very large party, so I honestly wasn't…read moresure what to expect when we arrived. However, the staff was extremely accommodating and did a great job making sure everyone was taken care of. Even though the restaurant was busy and our group was much larger than the average party, they still provided great service and were very patient with us. I really appreciated how much effort they put into making the experience enjoyable for everyone. The food was also very tasty. I ordered the sesame chicken, and it had the perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors. The sauce had just the right amount of sweetness without being overwhelming, and the chicken had a really good crunch to it. It was exactly what I was hoping for and definitely one of the highlights of my meal. Everything else that I tried was enjoyable as well, and overall, I was impressed with the quality of the food. My biggest complaint was more about the layout of the restaurant than the food or service. Because we had such a large group, there really weren't many spaces available that could accommodate everyone together. We ended up having to sit at five separate tables, which was a little inconvenient when we were trying to celebrate a birthday as a group. I completely understand that the staff was working with the space they had, and I really appreciate that they did everything they could to accommodate us. It just would have been nice if there were a larger seating area where big parties could sit together. I think a remodel or some type of redesign of the dining area could really benefit the restaurant, especially if they frequently have larger parties. Creating a designated space for bigger groups would make the experience much more convenient and would allow families and large groups to actually sit together and enjoy their meals. Overall, though, we had a great experience. The staff was incredibly accommodating, the food was delicious, and they did a great job handling our large group despite how busy they were. The seating situation was definitely the only downside, and I think that could be improved with a little more space or a remodel. I would still come back, especially for the food and the excellent service!

The ube latte was perfectly sweet with a strong ube flavor. The crème brûlée cruffin had a top that was so crispy from the toasted sugar that I couldn't cut into it, and the bottom was just stuffed full of cream. It was super messy to eat and impossible to share- next time I am getting my own. We also had the pandan coconut cupcake, which was good but not as exciting as the cruffin. The pandan and coconut were both equally strong flavors- I liked it better than my husband did. The Thai tea cake in a cup was also excellent, but outshone by the cruffin. They were out of a few other things we wanted to try by 11am on a Saturday, so get there early if you want something specific. The gentleman running the counter was very friendly and efficient, even when they were busy. Seriously, get the crème brûlée cruffin. I know I will be back for it.

My girlfriend was taking a class nearly across the street, so I thought I'd check it out. I was disappointed that they've apparently stopped making crêpe cakes as that was a favorite. There were none in the case and they're no longer mentioned on the Web site. Alas. However, there were lots of interesting items on display. I selected a Strawberry Croissant, a Chocolate Cupcake, and one of the cake cups: Ube Tres Leches Milk Cake. I'd never seen anything like that last item before. The strawberry croissant is filled with fresh strawberries and vanilla cream. I was worried that it might be soggy, but it was crispy, flaky and very tasty. The frosting on the cupcake was chocolate-flavored chantilly cream. This was heavenly. Absolutely perfect. I never contemplated ube plus tres leches. There is a traditional Vietnamese version (ha, you Latin purists!) that uses the flavors of Vietnamese iced coffee, but ube is a new approach. The number of different cultures involved here is making my head spin, but the result was delightful, of course. A mini cake in a paper ice cream cup is also a great idea. More substantial and easier to eat than a cupcake, but still a good snack for one person. Service was prompt, friendly, and helpful. The business faces Colfax Avenue. There's street parking plus a large, free parking lot behind the building. There are a number of tables if you can't wait to get your purchases home and a variety of drinks including Vietnamese coffee, a full espresso bar, tea, and lemonade. Bánh mi and other breakfast and lunch sandwiches are available plus rice bowls. I really enjoyed my purchases. Downtown Aurora is a bit of a drive for me, but I definitely need to make the trip more often.
