    So excited! I love this place!!!
    Rhonda M.

    This is the best Asian food in Denver hands down. At least I think so. It has the biggest menu and the weight staff is willing to accommodate all of your needs and everything that I have ordered has been done so well here. They have dim sum. They have pho they have Thai they have Vietnamese grill dishes. They have desserts. They have Boba teas. They have coffees they have drinks. You could injure a small pet with the weight of the menu here it is so big. I brought my son and he was really excited to see tripe on the menu . I've been here on dates and I've been here with friends. It has been a huge hit with everyone. I've seen young kids come in super excited because it's their favorite place too. I have ruined a couple of white shirts slurping on soup here because it's just that good and I don't care now. I know better. I wear black shirts when I come to this restaurant. In my opinion, this is a must try if you are hungry for Asian food. It is super authentic. It is super delicious. It's not overpriced. It's definitely not pretentious. It's just amazing flavors that make you feel good anytime of year.

    Husband ordered the roasted chicken pho with meatballs. I got the hu tieu with pho noodles and the shrimp claw dim sum. Everything was very good. You're given a lot of noodles and meat in your soup. Highly recommend. Great place and friendly service!

    Always tried their food at pop ups so today I decided to sit down at their restaurant. Servers are nice and helped me select my lunch entree. I went with the durian smoothie with boba and salted fish fried rice. The smoothy did have the durian taste and a slight smell. Like coming home. The salted fish fried rice was delicious. A burst of flavor with every bite. I'm glad I made the decision to eat lunch here today.

    Combo fried rice
    Alison C.

    Update : Had the worst craving for some steaming hot fried rice with wok hay. Not ALL restaurants cook fried rice with wok hay, but I read Pho Hong had a solid fried rice. I ordered the combo fried rice and it was perfection. Small little crispy bits of rice with lightly burnt flavor. The protein was also marinated and cooked well. I love the crunch of the fresh bean sprouts too. I highly recommend getting the fried rice here!

    On this chilly night I needed some warm broth and tasty dim sum bites- how amazing that I can get both in one place! Large portions, fair prices and friendly service- what more could I want?!

    bun
    Amanda L.

    Huge menu! Service was solid but the people here are young so it was a little bit... scattered in a sense. I tried the pho tai nam, the bun and a couple of dim sum like the bbq pork buns, taro rice and shrimp roll. M The stand out was the bbq pork bun. It was top tier. Everything else was very mid and surprisingly catered towards the major population instead of keeping with true Vietnamese flavors which is why everything tasted mild to us. The pho large was HUGE like bigger than two peoples faces together. This place gives Vietnamese and Chinese options which is also surprising because everyone there was Vietnamese (workers). It's a very average option.

    Shumai and Rice noodles with shrimp
    Mika H.

    I chose this restaurant so that I could have cake and eat it too! Well I was craving dim sum but pho sounded good also therefore I chose this place! I ended up ordering only dim sum but I was really happy with what I ordered! I had a traditional pork and shrimp shumai, shrimp rice noodles and spareribs. They were all delicious!

    Rice combination plate

    This was my first time at a Vietnamese restaurant, and Pho Hong made it such a great experience. I ordered the rice combination plate, and all the meats were excellent, the beef and pork especially stood out for their flavor and tenderness. The egg rolls were perfectly flaky on the outside and packed with delicious filling. Everything tasted fresh, portions were generous, and the presentation was inviting. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made me feel welcome right away. The environment was bright and clean. I left full, happy, and already planning my next visit to try more of the menu. Pho Hong is definitely worth checking out if you're looking for authentic, high-quality Vietnamese food.

    Very authentic feel and lots of employees to help. We caught them early so most of them were eating. The place was very cold, I assume because we got there too early and the place didn't have time to warm up. My pho was hot when it got to the table but the broth got cold too fast, so the meat wasn't cooked thoroughly. Dumplings were tasty and my wife enjoyed her egg drop soup. I ordered a plain black coffee, but they gave me a vietnamese special black coffee. I wasn't ready for this and it was super strong. As for service, they dropped the food off and left. Nothing else to speak about. The waiter must be living there because he had a serious case of bed head and didn't care. All of the other waiters and waitresses looked professional. Overall, the food was good but it tasted more like cooked packaged food than handmade Vietnamese cooked food. Here's a tip, put rubber pads at the bottom of the metal chairs, that way it doesn't sound like a horror movie when I pull the seat in or out.

    Left to right: Ca Phe Sua Da ~ Vietnamese Iced Coffee w/ Condensed Milk, SINH TO BO Avocado Smoothie, & Soda Chanh ~ Soda Lemonade
    EM H.

    For our second night in Colorado, June 19, 2024, we wanted to have Vietnamese food for dinner. Searching through yelp, I looked at many restaurants, filtering out those who serve cha gio (Viet fried egg rolls) with bubbly wraps, and we settled on going to Pho Hong. Located in the Far East Center on Federal Boulevard, we immediately found a space in the parking lot that was practically in front of the restaurant. We arrived around 6:15 PM sans reservations and were seated immediately. The dining room was tidy and well kept. Even the women's restroom was nice and clean. Below are the items that we ordered: SINH TO BO Avocado Smoothie ($6): Mom ordered this blended drink, topped with whipped cream. The avocado flavour was extremely faint to being almost non-existent. Mom said that, "if you really try, you can taste a little bit of it." I replied that you should not need to put any effort into tasting a flavour. Ca Phe Sua Da ~ Vietnamese Iced Coffee w/ Condensed Milk ($6): This was my beverage order which was too strong in taste for me. I took the drink home to keep in the fridge and consume later. Nope, couldn't do it. Even the next day, after the ice fully melted, I couldn't handle the taste. I never thought that I could meet a Viet iced coffee that I coudn't drink until this time. Soda Chanh ~ Soda Lemonade ($4): No complaints nor comments from Auntie Ligaya nor Alyssa. Tra Nong ~ Hot Tea ($4) - Yep, that's right. Tea is not free here. C2. BANH CUON XA XIU (3) ~ BBQ Pork Rice Noodle Crepe ($5.95): Alyssa seemed to really enjoy this dish and ate them all. Cha Gio Rau Song ~ Egg Rolls w/ Veggies & Vermicelli Noodles ($13.95): DELISH!! Paying extra for the veggies and noodles was so worth it! They were great to eat with the perfectly golden crisp egg rolls. Mom enjoyed this appetizer so much that we almost ordered a second serving. M17 MI XAO GION BO (Crispy Egg Noodles w/ Beef, $16.95): YUMMY!! Pho Tai ($13.50 for Medium): Good. Com Vit Quay (Roasted Duck Rice Plate, $16.95): The duck skin was very crispy, just as requested. B9. BANH TRUNG ~ Egg Tart ($5.55): The flaky layered crusts made for EXCELLENT egg tarts. They were probably some the best I have ever had. We ended up ordering another serving for to go. A7. BANH CAM (3) ~ Sesame Bean Paste Rice Ball ($4.55): The sesame balls came out piping hot and crispy. Service was nice and friendly, though one of the waiters was a bit forgetful. We also had to ask them to clear out the empty dishes as our table space was getting crowded. If I lived in the Denver area, I would probably be one of Pho Hong's regular customers.

    Small Pho Chin but larger portion that I thought
    Ester P.

    1. service: 4.5/5 attentive upon entering, fast service, and I like that we pay at the front. Pretty convenient 2. Food: 5/5 I have tried variety of pho in different states. Colorado is known for their pho, thanks to the pho-craving winter. Pho Hong has very rich broth while it has clean end taste. I usually like the broth with less scent of cardamom and this is the place for me. We coincidently found this spot as headquarter for my job is nearby federal. We live in Douglas county, but I won't hesitate to come here if I crave for some good pho. Great portion makes it even better. Next time I would share a medium bowl and order some dim sum items with my husband to have all the good stuffs together without having extreme food coma. Bbq pork bun is a must with every visit. 3. Atmosphere: 4/5 when you enter, it has the vibe of "neighborhood favorites". I see good mix of Vietnamese customers. I haven't used their bathroom but the whole stores seems pretty clean compared to other pho spots I been to. I even saw a group of people eating pho and doing business meeting together with their laptops open so spacey enough to accommodate many groups.

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.

    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.

    Good option for Vietnamese & pho and a trendy spot…read more The drink menus are a mess. After looking at two I still didn't know how much hot sake was or the sizes offered and if they had other kinds -- absolutely no transparency on price when it's not on a menu anywhere. They have Lucky Buddha bottles all over the place but no idea how much those were, either. Mixers? I see bottles but no prices cause nothin is listed in any drink menus. So weird. The pho is very good and other meals have always been. I think it's on the pricier side here for everything. It gets so expensive to go out when a modest meal/drink set ya back $50. It's just pho! And a basic adult drink like super cheap house sake or tap beer. But anywho, this is our world now. Just going out less & less than I used to! They don't have any deals like happy hour. Multiple people asked when I was there so I hope they offer one someday. The sides for pho are pretty skimpy but there was no hesitation when I asked for more lime & basil. Service was and has always been really good!

I…read morestill wanted noodle soup and figured a half empty restaurant was a quicker resolution, however I'm now fairly certain we would have gotten our food faster even with the 1 hour wait at our original restaurant choice. Service was incredibly slow for how empty the restaurant was. After more than 30 minutes of waiting and no sign of our server, another server finally came to check on us and realized none of our order tickets made it to the kitchen. This could have easily been recognized by the original server had he even showed up to check on us during this time. I wish I could say the food was worth the wait. The pork egg rolls we got had just 1 piece of lettuce and barely pickled veggies to accompany it. I was confused that my house pho with beef short rib came with the meat on the side, which was sadly very cold and chewy. The broth itself was fine, but the chili oil pooled so much and was too greasy to be palatable. Our server did at least remove the apps from our bill as an apology for the service and I did at least find the food edible. For a $20 bowl of pho though I am still left feeling offended and full of regret that I didn't just wait it out for Noodles by Nina. We all left agreeing that the only enjoyable part of our meal was the 2010s hits playlist.

Nonetheless, we added our name to the waitlist and was grateful there were only a couple of parties before us. We knew we wanted some of the Bahn Hue Plates but also didn't want too many of the same thing. The waiter offered some substitute options that worked for us. These "cakes" are still a rarity for us as they aren't found everywhere. * BH8. Sampler with substitutes $14.99 - Ours came with the 4 Loc La, 2 Nam, and 4 It Co Ram (instead of the 12 Beo and 3 It Tran). I actually think the waiter said he would sub the 12 Beo for the It Co Ram. I realize now we did not get any of the It Tran, which is a bit of a bummer. * BH1. Bahn Beo Chen $13.99 - We usually try to order this whenever we see it on the menu. * A5. Vietnamese Eggrolls Cha Gio $7.99 - Their deep-fried egg rolls were exactly how we wanted - with that extra blistery look to it. Not all Vietnamese restaurants serve it this way, so we do try to order it when we see it offered. * HS1. Sizzling Steak & Eggs $18.99 - We did ask for more bread to soak up the proteins on this dish. I'm not sure what happened because the bread took ridiculously long, and the restaurant had cleared up quite a bit by then. Most of our orders came out rather quickly, so it was weird with the long wait for the extra bread. I honestly think they forgot, and when someone finally remembered, it was put into the toaster to heat up then because it did arrive very hot versus the initial order. We had to get up and ask about it and two different waiters said it was coming out. Their house made chili oil definitely had a kick to it! Use it sparingly if it's your first go at it. We were curious about their Bun Bo Hue because there are so many options. The waiter did tell us it's their most popular dish and the pictures looked amazing. Overall, we had a good experience at O Lien Kitchen. The long wait for the bread did put a downer on the visit as it dragged on and the steak and eggs got cold as we waited. I initially wanted dessert but changed my mind since we were waiting so long. 3.5 stars
