Black pepper udon
Suchot K.

Excellent service and staff. Very spacious place. Food came out very fast. Give this place a 4 stars. The black pepper beef udon was very delicious. It is rich and flavorful. Highly recommend getting this and sharing it though as it could be a little rich if that's all you're doing. Also I do wish the egg was over easy instead overcooked. Also ordered the spring roll combo set. Personally I think this item fell short. The meat was tough, and not very flavorful. The eggrolls were also not cooked long enough and didn't have a nice crisp. It was just okay. I plan to come back and try other noodle bowls though. Seems like maybe the bowls are better.

Garlic noodles

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.

Menu

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!

Slightly oily and adequate flavor at best
Andy H.

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.
Phi T.

Service: Okay no joke, the service here absolutely sucks. We came in with a 15% coupon. See attached photo that says "Show this...for 15% off" so when it's time to pay we showed one of the restaurant staffs the coupon. She seemed perfectly okay with it and explained to our waiter that we have a coupon for 15% discount as he approached to handle our bill. Our waiter refused to honor it for some reason despite his female coworker being perfectly fine with the coupon. Our waiter proceeded to argue with us and say that they do not accept the coupon unless we have a physical printout. No, it says "Show this post" right from their Google page. I even zoomed in to show our waiter the fine print. He still firmly refused to honor the coupon and has a rude attitude at this point. He asked me where I got the coupon from and I explained it's on their Google page, posted by their owner. Lol. He then spent several minutes on the phone with someone, then came back took a photo of the coupon displayed on our phone screen and spent several more minutes on the phone. After which he came back and said okay yeah we give you the 15% discount but next time you need the paper. Lol so ruining our lunch mood and being stubborn over a $3 discount that they did in fact put out and do not honor is definitely not a good first impression. Food: My combination noodle bowl was delicious and I was impressed by portion and flavors. Their egg rolls were one of the best tasting when judged against Vietnamese restaurants in the area. Pho - good portion, but really strange tasting broth. The extra sweetness is not in a good way either. It's sweet in a Chinese herbal way, which I have never tasted in pho broth anywhere else. To the owner: Your staff flock together and talk loudly in Vietnamese on why they get low or no tips. Their conversations are loud enough that Vietnamese customers like myself inside the restaurant can easily hear them. However their attitude and the way they argue with customers as I have seen, as my first time here, makes it crystal clear why people don't tip and why these bad reviews keep coming in. We enjoyed what we ordered, but refuse to go back to the lousy atmosphere and rude service. Also, for future customers, call in first to ensure they will honor coupons that they themselves put out, because for the one currently live on their Google page, they are not honoring it.

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

It's such a classy restaurant and all the staff are very polite and knowledgeable on their menu. I love the elegance of this place, it's nice to not feel like you're in Colorado all the time. Raw Oysters: they have an amazingly fresh selection of small to large oysters which I love. They have good accompaniments with them as well. 10/10 Oyster Rockefeller: Personally I don't think the fennel works with them because it takes away from the natural oyster taste. 5/10 Grilled Octopus: Such a well rounded dish! The sides go perfect with the octopus. They also cooked it perfectly, I highly recommend this. 10/10 Fish Tacos: Again, their seafood for a land locked state is excellent! If you're a fish taco person you need to get this. 10/10 Clam Chowder: Another must get at Water grill, so tasty and they elevate it. 10/10 House Rolls: They are no longer free nor are they sourdough so it's honestly not worth it. 3/10 Mocktails: So tasty and done without truly being on the menu! 10/10

Water Grill is a well-known seafood destination with locations across the country. I used to…read morefrequent the Grand Avenue location in Los Angeles at least once a week when I worked nearby, so I was already familiar with the restaurant's exceptional service and high-quality seafood. Before dinner, I happened to be at the High Times Dispensary across the street, which overlooks Water Grill. When I mentioned to my budtender that I planned to eat there afterward, he told me he sees fresh seafood deliveries arriving every morning. That only increased my confidence and excitement about the meal. I started with a dozen Baywater Sweet oysters from Hood Canal, Washington. They were outstanding: fresh, flavorful, and perfectly sized. Not overly large or difficult to eat, just clean, delicious oysters that showcased their quality. For my entrée, I ordered the halibut, and all I can say is wow. Just take a look at the photo. It was beautifully prepared, incredibly flavorful, and absolutely worth ordering. The only reason I'm not giving Water Grill a full five stars is that the service was a bit slower than expected. That said, the food itself was easily five-star quality. I still had a fantastic dining experience. The cocktails were excellent, and there were plenty of TVs throughout the restaurant, making it a great spot to catch the Broncos game while I was in town. Overall, I had a great time and would definitely return. Rating: 4/5 Stars

Water was cold and refilled without us having to flag anyone down, which matters more than it sounds like when your hands are covered in Old Bay and butter. The dining room itself was clean, well-kept, and the energy was warm without being chaotic -- easy to talk over, easy to relax into. We finished with ice cream, which was a nice, unexpected way to close out a meal built around mess and spice. Boils here are market-priced, so it's not a cheap night out, but between the portion size, the sides included, and the attentiveness of the staff, it didn't feel like we were paying for atmosphere or hype -- it felt like we got what we paid for. This is a great pick for a group that doesn't mind getting their hands dirty -- girls' nights, birthdays, anyone who wants a seafood boil that doesn't take itself too seriously. If you're looking for a quiet, tidy dinner where you never touch your food, this isn't it, and that's exactly the appeal.

Formal Complaint Regarding Experience on 7-9-2026…read more To the Management Team, I am writing to express my profound disappointment regarding my recent visit to your establishment on 7-9-26 Having visited several times in the past, I have previously enjoyed your shrimp platter; however, my experience this time was deeply unsatisfactory. My visit was marred by unprofessional and rude service from the staff members on duty. When I politely requested lemons, my request was met with dismissiveness. Furthermore, when we raised a concern regarding the quality of the fried rice which appeared to be plain white rice with frozen vegetables rather than the fried rice we have received in the past our concerns were ignored, and our request for a simple substitution of fries was flatly refused. I was also shocked to see additional line items on our bill for requests that are standard in the service industry. Specifically, I was charged $1.00 for a request for "extra crispy" fries, and I have previously been charged for simple accompaniments like lemons. Charging customers for basic food preparation preferences feels both petty and indicative of a lack of commitment to customer satisfaction. The combination of hostile service, a significant decline in food quality, and the nickel-and-diming of standard requests has made it clear that I will not be returning to your business. I believe it is important for you to be aware of how these practices are impacting long-term customers. I hope you take this feedback seriously to prevent other patrons from having similar experiences. You have lost a good customer. Will never come again. I hope others will not go. I am sure we will find place support and find good food.

A Bonefish Grill is opening near me soon so I figured we should try it while out of town…read more Wee checked in and were seated quickly, but they still asked for a phone number, I am a bit perplexed by this! . Once seated our server was there pretty quickly and brought some bread and pesto/oil, which was delicious. We ended up ordering the burger and the meal for two. If I recall correctly the meal for two came with a soup or salad for each and then mango salsa salmon, blackened tuna with lemon butter, chimmichuri shrimp, and Asian salmon along with two sides to share. Everything was delicious and the service was good. We will try Bonefish Grill when it opens locally (although it is a bit in the pricier side).

The seared spinach was good as well as was the fish and shrimp. The cocktails however were not the standard we have come to know. A bit disappointed as we usually order at least two rounds we opted out of a second drink. The restaurant was also a little warm we moved to the other side as it felt cooler. Good service over all and friendly hostess.
