In addition, the front staff member took her sweet time talking to customers despite a line forming - but definitely was different when it was my turn to order. Maybe they were regulars but I always think it's important to extend niceties to all customers.

Right off the bat, the coolest thing about this place is that it's open 24 hours! So it's a perfect…read moreplace to come at any time to do work, grab a coffee, tea, or even an alcoholic drink. They also serve food though we didn't try any. There's a mix of indoor and patio seating. We sat outside when we went on a nice summer evening. People seemed friendly and there were a few dogs on the patio. Definitely seems like the kind of place you could go alone and do some work, meet a friend for a coffee, or even make a new friend by asking. Staff here is friendly and the prices were pretty reasonable. Parking can get a little busy from the beer garden in the summer across the street. But it's great to have this all day and all night option in town.

Tucked just south of downtown near the University of Denver, Kat's Kitchen is serving bold,…read moreflavor-packed Asian fusion with a Vietnamese focus and honestly, she's not messing around. I came hungry and left absolutely obsessed. The portions are generous, the flavors are layered and vibrant, and everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Here's what I tried: Banh Mi Chao - Filet Mignon Combo: This dish had everything--tender filet mignon, sunny-side-up eggs, pork ham, pate, cheese, tomato, and bread. It was savory, rich, and fun to eat. Grilled Lemongrass Chicken Bowl: Vermicelli noodles, fresh veggies, crispy shallots, and perfectly grilled lemongrass chicken. As a self-proclaimed lemongrass loyalist, I'd order this again in a heartbeat. Elote: Off-the-cob goodness with crispy shallots, green onions, and tiny shrimp that totally worked--I want them on every elote from now on. Shaken Fries with Filet Mignon: Filet + fries = chaotic good. Salty, savory, and surprisingly addictive. Vietnamese Milk Coffee: Sweet and strong, it gave me the energy to clean my apartment afterward. Milk Tea with Boba and Sugar Cane Fruit Juice: Both refreshing and great complements to the meal. Standouts? Definitely the lemongrass chicken bowl and those shaken fries. Don't let the name fool you...they're a main dish, not a side. If you're in the DU area and craving a flavorful, satisfying meal with Vietnamese flair, Kat's Kitchen is worth the trip. Friendly service, great variety, and bold flavors that'll have you coming back.
