    Garlic noodles
    Melanie T.

    I've seen garlic butter noodles on Vietnamese restaurant menus a lot but never ordered it. One day at Saigon Bowl, I ordered the garlic butter noodles and they were quite tasty. I shared a plate with my bf but it was a lot of food for two people. The noodles were cooked well and just very flavorful. It was overbearing in garlic flavor or too oily due to the butter. It was pretty great balance. I saw the rice bowls pass by and those look tasty and will need to try next time I'm here. Overall, there's plenty of seating. It was kinda slow when we came here at like 3pm but still had people.

    I came here expecting just some sesame chicken. Apparently here, that means a whole experience. First things first; The whole get-up inside comes off as a higher class restaurant from the moment you walk inside. We got there before the lunch rush, but were still greeted like high class citizens. Got to our table and drinks almost immediately afterwards. Every server was so incredibly friendly, I have a hard time trying to make a joke on it. The food got to us piping hot, and this sesame chicken may look like your usual Chinese takeout, the first bite I took was nowhere near that. The food had a flavor of legitimate freshness, not just reheated and thrown onto a bowl. Eveb the veggies had a fresh and crispy bite to it all. Definitely a great place to go, don't let the dead mall vibes of the outside fool you. It's pretty amazing.

    Today I stopped in to try out my favorite cuisine, Vietnamese. Saigon bowl is tucked away in a large shopping center in Thornton just off of I-25. The location was VERY spacious with options to seat large parties. Staff was friendly and attentive to refills and taking orders in good timing. The menu has MANY options with pictures for each item on the entire menu, very awesome those not familiar with Vietnamese cuisine. I ordered the Shaking Beef (Com Bò Lúc Lăc) This has always been one of my favorites dishes. It gets its name from vigorously shaking the pan to evenly cook the meat. This dish always has the most tender soft beef to taste. Comes with a side of rice that is a nice pairing with the veggies and beef. I will be back to try more options soon!

    Empty pho tahi

    The food came out really quickly and it was actually really good. I would recommend the Pho Thai it was amazing! I'm definitely coming back!

    Amazing service, very attentive to the costumers! & the food is always amazing ! Really recommend this place !

    Spicy seefood ramen  the best.

    Great service and the food was great......the place was really clean and food came out really quick

    Dumpling soup

    It was pretty good and the service was great. I had the dumpling soup and I liked the dumplings they were super flavorful. The noodles were also pretty good. I recommend coming here.

    Slightly oily and adequate flavor at best

    I'm Vietnamese, obviously, and I'm disappointed Asian dad in some of the staff. I am not a pho-magic for Saigon Bowl. Three pictures included: oily pho with flavor you wouldn't kick out of bed, bean sprout quality control... questionable at best and don't get me started on protein portions. Mind you our servers only come out to the dining room area periodically. They must be new or I'm just projecting my disappointment. On a brighter note from a not to so bright pho restaurant in the Denver county area: there looks like a karaoke room in the back. Seems like a fun nighttime spot to party with friends. Their pho might not cure your hangover tho. 2 stars.. more like 1.5

    Coupon that they put out, but do not honor.

They also have a few izakaya options perfect for sharing. * Black Tonkotsu $18 - The Little Guy got this and slurped the whole thing up, even the wood ear mushrooms which he usually leaves behind. He actually asked to return the next day because he loved it so much and just loved it. 5/5 * Menya Special $16.50 - I got this one and it was fine. Although I think I was a bit jealous as the Black Tonkotsu looked like it had different kind of noodles. The egg was perfectly cooked. 4/5 * Udon $16.50 - The Little Gal had this as she is a fan of udon any day. She ate pretty much the whole thing herself. Overall, Menya Noodle Bar served its purpose. It's a no-frills kind of place in a prime location.

The vibe here is of a japanese izakaya, though not a super traditional one, with sake bombs and everything. That said, the food is definitely on the pricier side, though extremely delicious. My typical go to is on of the salad. Now salads typically are not standout at most restaurants, but the ones at Kawa Ni just hits different. Both the red cabbage and pear salad and the brocolli salad are delicious and the portion is massive, easily enough for a table of 4 to share. For apps and shareable entrees, you can't go wrong here. The build your own tuna temaki hand rolls can easily be shared and the tuna is so fresh and well seasoned. The szechuan dumplings are delicious, as is the curry onigiri and the bao bun. The Dan Dan noodle, kimchi Carbonara, and their tonkotsu ramen are also amazing, and, with the exception of the tonkotsu ramen, can easily be shared. I would highly recommend other seasonal dishes as well, such as the coconut swordfish or chicken katsu parm. However, one of my absolute favorite dish here is the ochazuke. It's basically grilled fish over rice in a warm green tea dashi. It's so comforting, especially on a cold night, and a dish that I return to time and time again. Overall, Kawa Ni is an amazing japanese restaurant. Come for the food and just make sure you get a sake bomb and ask for the gong when you do.

    Cravings absolutely satisfied…read more We were in CO for the Rocky Mountain Siberian Husky Club specialty and I cannot go anywhere without having some sort of Asian food. That evening, I was craving pho. Pho 92 came recommended and I was immediately drawn to the clear broth in the photos while researching Yelp for Vietnamese food. It was a Thursday evening when we arrived at Pho 92, and the restaurant was packed. It was loud, with staff bustling about and patrons enjoying their meals. The aroma of the pho broth was just as I had hoped for a busy restaurant. We waited approximately 10 min for a table. The staff were pretty efficient and looked to have a good system going for bussing tables. Hailing from CA, I am no stranger to good pho, and this place hit the spot. I'm so glad I decided to get the regular instead of the large, because wow those portion sizes were indeed huge. My husband made the "mistake" of ordering the combination vermicelli bowl, and it came packed with tender proteins and crispy egg rolls. That just meant for some delicious leftovers (that actually reheated perfectly). The pho broth was as clear as I had imagined from looking at other patrons' photos. It still had a good depth of flavor, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had been a long travel day for us, so I didn't want oily soup. (Sometimes I do enjoy rich, oilier pho broth, but not that night.) The pho came with a plethora of herbs, which I of course used all of. Be warned that their chili oil is very spicy, which I accidentally put too much of without first trying (oops). I generally don't go to the same spot twice during a trip, as I enjoy trying out different local businesses, but Pho 92 would have been a spot I'd return to again if we had had the time and if I had wanted pho again. Their menu is huge, so there are plenty of dishes to choose from to satisfy your cravings, whatever those might be for any given day. We will definitely be back the next time we visit CO!

They no longer have the crab fried rice, but do have an imitation crab one. The photos from today look so different from before. It was damn near inedible and was actually gross. Our bill was over 100 bucks and it was so upsetting because the food was not worth it. The atmosphere is so chaotic and unfortunate. Definitely a miss.
