Chicken 9. Pho Chicken
Emma O.

This is the worst Thai / Vietnamese food I've probably ever had! I got the rice soup and the chicken pho.... I don't know what they use for their meats but the chicken and the beef were very questionable. Very rubber like and not meat like at all. The rice noodles were not very good either. Broth wasn't bad. I was really excited because they labeled their pad Thai as gluten free and have dietary labels on their menu.... This was a big bummer. At least the herb garnishes were fresh.

Pad Se-lew Dinner (Beef)
Mai L.

I order via DoorDash so I'm not sure about what this location looks like, parking, etc. However, my food was ready pretty quickly on a Friday night - prime time to order dinner. I ordered the Pad See Lew with Beef and the Asian Chili hot wings. It was a lot of food! The pad see lew had lots of sauce and beef. The noodles were al dente style cooked but good. The chicken wings were cooked well - crispy outside with juicy inside - however, they were not spicy or had much taste. There was siracha and hoisin container (like what you'd put in pho as dipping sauce but I did not use it.

Panang Curry Dinner
Tes H.

I read mixed yelp reviews before heading to this restaurant. I gathered info on the best and worst dishes. So, I sadly didn't order pad Thai, but I did order pangang curry from other's recommendations. It. Was. Wonderful. The spice level was mild-medium and it was just enough heat to give that slow burn between bites. Of course curry is always in huge portions so I ate it the next day and it was even better. 5/5 for this dish. Next, we had the orange chicken. I saw 0 reviews for it but we decided on something sweet to offset the spicy, savory curry. The chicken seemed of good quality and it was perfectly crispy. Every piece had a crunch coated in that sweet orange glaze. It was perfectly cooked and we were pleasantly surprised. The broccoli was perfectly cooked but a little cold when we got it, 4/5 for this dish. The service was prompt, drinks were filled immediately, and the waitress even turned the tv off behind me when I asked to turn it down some so we could not talk over it - which I thought was a kind gesture. Inside it's a pretty clean and basic restaurant. Perfect for a hang with friends or a quick lunch.

They do deliver with a minimum order of $15 & within a three mile radius. Note : they're closed on Mondays. We ordered from the Lunch Special Menu (11am-3pm, not valid on Sundays & Holidays). The portions were big... we had leftovers! Three of us shared two entrees which included Egg Fried Rice & Crab Cheese Wontons. Plus we ordered a side of Lo Mein Noodles. The Sesame Chicken was wonderful, very juicy! The chicken was crispy even with the sauce on top & the sauce was delicious. The Beef Teriyaki was good as well. Although, I would have liked a little more of the teriyaki flavor. In both dishes they added a few vegetables- broccoli with the chicken & baby corn & carrots with the beef. The Lo Mein & rice were tasty too. My favorite part of lunch were the wontons. Adding the crab really made them yummy. This is a great place to go & very reasonably priced!

It's that kind of thoughtful service that turns a great meal into a memorable experience. The next time I'm in Denver, I'll definitely be back. Don't skip the Chiang Mai Wonton and the dumplings,

I was intrigued by the dumplings, but definitely did not try them seemed a bit to modern. Malaysian noodles were decent with bit of flavor, but overwhelmingly, egg & bean sprouts with very little noodle & overcooked pork belly. It was so rough... I was really expecting some being that would basically melt in my mouth and that was not at all the experience. it made me miss San Francisco Asian food so much... as a treat myself kind of meal, it was fine, but I'm glad I went by myself rather than a date night with my husband cause I think we both would've regretted it on the plus side if there is one is that the staff we're remarkably friendly even for the lunch crowd. It was pretty slow.

The pad see ew was great too and very fresh, it just wasn't spicy at all even under the HOT Spicy category. I would still gladly order again and I hope to sit in one day.

I love tea leaf salad and theirs has become my favorite. It's fresh and crunchy without too much bitterness and is a great item to share. My husband got the fish curry and this wasn't a favorite of mine, the fish was very briney and smelly. He doesn't mind that but it was not to my tastes. The Burmese dish I ordered on the other hand was great! The noddles were chewy and the cruncy pieces of garlic were super addictive. Mandalay Nann Gyi Thoke (Burma Spaghetti) is what its called and I'd order it again. The service is where it fell flat, the man who served us didn't seem to like that I asked questions and we were often left with empty water glasses and had to ask several times. It wasn't enough to deter me from coming back however. I haven't tried the thai food here do I can't speak on that but the burmese food is pretty delicious.

Uncle is a small, Asian fusion shrine that one should place on your must visit list. In the Northwest area of Denver, Uncle has limited seating and a show if you sit at the bar. Reservations are strongly suggested and well worth the wait. Crazy combinations, flavor bombs throughout and a culinary delight you won't regret. Tonight, we sat at the bar and watched the magic happen. These guys are cranking out amazing and delectable treats you won't forget. The Uncle salad was a great starter with charred cabbage, lemongrass, mint, cilantro, arugula, and peanuts lightly coated in a Thai coconut dressing. A slight burn only leaving you to crave just one more bite, ha! The fried soft shell crab in a bao bun with green papayo slaw, coconut mayo and cilantro nam prik was sweet, perfect crunch and memorable. Two for two with one dish left. The cold spicy sesame noodles with seasoned chicken, granny Smith apple slivers, arugula, cashews and nanami togorashi, a perfect closing dish for an exceptional meal. The service, food quality, flavors and preformance from the bar seats were second to none. The concept, portion size, flavor and cost were a real treat in the big city food scene of Denver. If you haven't been here yet, get to the internet and book a table, I promise you won't regret it. To the staff, chefs, and all members of Uncle, thank you for a surprising and incredibly great meal, we will return on our future trips to Denver.

I will start by saying that our server was helpful and attentive! So this is nothing against our service. The consistency of the food is where there were problems. The Not-So-Good Food Unfortunately, the French onion soup dumplings were undercooked. We could tell they would have been good if they were allowed the time to cook through. Additionally, the soft shell crab Bao buns were very salty and tasted a bit off. The Good Food We enjoyed the General Cho's soup dumplings and the sticks of wagyu beef were also good. Nothing to write home about, but nice to try. We were there on a Tuesday, so all day happy hour applied. We took advantage of the happy hour, but noticed that it wasn't much of a deal. For instance, they charge $7 instead of $16 for their dumplings, but they don't state that it's a half portion. Most happy hour items are like this, a half portion that equates to the same price per unit or $1 cheaper per unit compared to the regular menu. It felt a bit misleading and frustrating when you add the inconsistent food quality. I suspect this was a recent change, because many reviews have mentioned the excellent happy hour deals.
