Jessica W.

Nice little family-owned spot! Service was quick and friendly. We got the Chinese BBQ and the seafood pan-fried noodles. The noodle was crispy on top with a somewhat thicker texture sauce underneath. The BBQ meats had good flavor, but the pork was a bit dry and the roast duck didn't have much meat on it, mostly skin and bone. Good portions for the price, even had leftovers to take home. The place is casual for a laid-back meal

It's a very busy spot on the weekends. The lady owner is so busy multitasking so well. Taking phone calls, in person orders, running the cash register and chopping meat nonstop for the hour and a half we were dining in. Grandma is doing the serving while semi watching the grandkid. We enjoyed their 3 neat platter with bbq pork and crispy pork belly over rice. Their bbq ribs were a bit dry. We demolished the beef chow fun in about five minutes as it was so good. The beef stew could have been more tender and served hotter - I took this home and cooked it some more and it was delish. We took a whole duck to - go and it was one of the juiciest duck we had. It's casual family dining.

Pork fried rice

Everything was delicious! Some of the best BBQ pork I've ever had. Pork fried rice was perfectly seasoned and a generous portion of. Highly recommend.

F3. Fry BBQ Pork Rice Noodle (Chow Fun)
Nancy T.

My go-to restaurant in Colorado. Please experience this place if you're too tied to trendy restaurants. This hole in the wall deserves every recognition for not only their food, but the amazing service that these kind folks always delivers. The Fry BBQ Pork Rice Noodle (chow fun) is dangerously good! They not only have the perfect balance of umami flavors from the sauce, but mixed with the bbq flavor is incredible. Most places in Denver, the chow fun is either bland or tastes like soy sauce... Here, the sauce is paired well with the crunch from the bean sprouts, onions, and green onions. And lastly, but most importantly, THE FRESH NOODLES are addicting. Such an amazing texture you don't get at most places. I can't recommend this dish enough. Honey mayo shrimp is not too sweet and coated nicely... somehow they manage to keep the crunchiness even as leftovers. Shrimp and pork wontons: I personally prefer just the shrimp wontons here as I didn't taste much shrimp, but can't be mad with that delicate wrapper they use and the amazing light broth that packs so much flavor.

A bustling fast casual family owned Cantonese BBQ joint. The food came out in about 5 minutes. It's one of the best BBQ places we've been to in Denver. Noodles had a great texture. Soup was hot and had depth. Would love it it they'd open a south location. Highly recommend!

2 item combination special with white rice, BBQ pork, and curry chicken
Lena N.

Got takeout here. Very friendly and prompt service. They give you a lot of food for a low price, enough for 2-3 meals, what a great value! And much better quality food than other similar places I've tried. I especially recommend the BBQ pork. Such a great deal!

Salt & pepper capelin (fried fish). Twelve small fried fish per serving.
Kimberly N.

How hungry were we for the food served here? Within 30, we finished 95% of the following food items we ordered including salt & pepper capelin (fried fish), salt & pepper shrimp, 2 servings of beef chow fun, 1/2 lb each of roasted bbq pork and roasted pork belly, saliva chicken, water spinach with garlic, seafood pan noodles, and 1 whole roasted duck! Some of the photos presented here don't do justice, because as soon as the food came, we all just inhaled it! Highly recommend you stop by this place for authentic Chinese food that will explore your taste buds, and will leave your stomach full. A friend wrote the following about her frequent stops at Uncle Henry's for takeout, and I think it's appropriate to include here with this review. "Uncle Henry's is my go to Cantonese food closest to me. The quality of their seafood is chef's kiss... it's never fishy/muddy/sketchy tasting and supposedly they get it direct from a California supplier. Their salt and pepper shrimp or capelin small fish is that fresh, which is very difficult in Colorado. The bbq roast meat has exceptional quality and consistency. Despite having a smallish menu, their attention to detail and execution is excellent. It's hard to get such an amazing Asian restaurant (especially in NW Denver)... I'm talking about California/East coast level of Cantonese food. That's why all the Asians who live in the area come here. Another Canto person who lives in the Denver Metro area (and whose parents ran restaurants) regularly drives up her for their food. (Pro tip: they can get pretty busy on the weekend from 5-7pm so be prepared to wait 20-30 minutes for your food. They are just a small family business so don't have the band width. They also try their very best not the compromise the quality of their food when it gets busy.)"

Roast duck and roast pork
Shawn B.

We usually grab a whole roast duck on our way back from Denver. Today we had time for a lunch plate. I split a 3 meat lunch plate w my partner and it was the perfect amount of food. We got the roast pork, bbq pork, and of course the roast duck. The roast pork and bbq pork were fire! So delicious! The staff are super friendly and happy to answer your questions. Their roast duck is the best priced in the area as well as being super tasty.

Egg rolls
Josette C.

Service and staff are great very welcoming they make sure you have what you need if you stay and eat check out after you eat if you eat in. Ambiance welcoming and clean you can choose to sit at tables or the bar stools in front of window on hot days I would choose table, they do also have outdoor seating with umbrellas. The food the first time around was great I got some low main, the second time I don't know what happened I didn't care for it as much. I did like that it was big portions the first time around it feed 2 people for the to go box. But the second time I didn't even want to finish my food. We will try again maybe I just caught the cook on an off day. Redemption soon.

Vegan sesame "chicken"
Caroline Y.

Tried Uncle Henry with some friends for lunch and we split a couple dishes. Everything was super tasty! We ordered crispy salt and pepper tofu, vegan, sesame chicken with broccoli, and shrimp dumpling soup. This place is homestyle Cantonese food. The interior is small and there's only a couple tables. This is a good place for a casual meal or to grab some takeout. They specialize in Chinese bbq. We didn't try any this time, but it looked delicious. They roast duck and pork in house. 10/10, I will definitely be back to try other things on the menu. They have a large selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes.

Gem in Westminster - thankful for they are open for both lunch and dinner. Excited and interested to have a Hong Kong style restaurant in this pocket of town. I ordered the three meat combo with rice and greens. This family style cafe serves up a mean cha su as well as their roast duck. I'm excited to try other things on their menu. The offerings are fresh and flavorful and reminiscent of what you can enjoy in Asia. But their menu doesn't just stop at bbq, they have extensive offerings. Service is friendly and the space is clean.

Chicken Wings
Melanie T.

I finally got the try Uncle Henry and it was delicious and this is worth the drive. It feels like a real Cantonese Hong Kong bbq restaurant with the duck displayed. Next time, I'll need to try the 3 meat combo plate. It looks so good. But we ordered the sesame chicken, chowfun, and the salt and pepper chicken wings. The wings were super flavorful. There's enough seasoning to it and you can taste it with each bite. The crunch is so satisfying. If you want a drink, I highly recommend the honey jasmine tea. That was our favorite. Staff is super friendly. There's lot of seating options available. Food comes out relatively quick. Overall, fantastic meal especially if you're craving Cantonese cuisine and you live up north.

I was visiting Denver and had a friend recommend this spot, so I decided to check it out. I'm…read morereally glad I did! I got the brisket sandwich and it was seriously good. The brisket was tender, flavorful, and had that perfect smoky BBQ flavor without being overly heavy. The portion was generous too, and everything tasted fresh. Definitely one of the better meals I had while I was in Denver. If you're craving BBQ, especially brisket, this place is absolutely worth checking out. I'd happily come back next time I'm in town!

I really loved the ribs and the pulled lamb at Pit Fiend! I will definitely be getting more of…read morethose in the future. I also really liked that you could order in super small sizes such as 1 or 2 ribs and smaller than 1/4 lbs. of meat, really any size you'd like (I'm not sure how low it goes) this is awesome. GET THE COWBOY CANDY FOR $1!* *That is if you like sweet heat. It's a generous amount of jalapenos that are candied. One cup is enough for multiple people, IMO. You can bring your BBQ right over the Out Mutual Friend and they have a nice patio area right outside of Pit Fiend. Grab you a beer and chow down! For me, the sides were not a hit. The coleslaw tasted like it had sesame oil, or something, which wasn't necessarily a "bad" taste, but it's not the crisp, refreshing coleslaw I like to have to cut the already oily meats. It's too much, too heavy, and I could not come close to finishing it with the rest of my meal. I feel like the should change their oil-based recipe to something without oil. The elote I did not like, either. I tried the pit beans and those were fine. The cucumbers I feel are ridiculously priced at $5 for a 4oz cup, when an entire cucumber is $0.89. I understand it's a business, but to mark up a few pieces of cucumbers that high is wild to me. The sauces were, ok. The few I tried really didn't taste different from each other. I'm used to very clearly distinctly different BBQ sauces, especially when they go through that effort to explain them all on the sign/sheet of paper that is too hard on the eyes and long to read. A more aesthetically pleasing presentation of the explanations would be nicer to look at. The burnt ends sell out FAST! We were there pretty early, though it was on a Saturday afternoon around 2-3pm-ish, I believe, and they were already out! And the pit is right out front!

The server was quick to take my order and friendly. Definitely glad I got it to go because it was a bit loud due to a large group being there. Food took a little bit of time to make but definitely well worth the wait. The beans were very sweet and yummy. Mac and cheese slaps your taste buds with so much flavor. The ribs on the 2 meat platter I only got 3 of them and a huge link but for the price I thought it was worth it. Can't wait to come back and try the wings and the different types of sauces they got. There is parking garage but parking on the street wasn't a problem in the evening.

Being born and raised southern, I have pretty high expectations when it comes to BBQ. However this…read moreplace was so yum! I got the 1 meat plate with bbq ribs, green beans and Mac & cheese. It included a Hawaiian roll as well. I also got a banana pudding for a sweet treat. The Bbq sauce was top tier on the ribs- absolutely delicious. The rib meat was tough... but overall had great flavor. The Mac & cheese was dry, but green beans were pretty good! Banana pudding was a custard base and was thick and creamy and so worth it. Will absolutely be back to try more of their sauces and for more of that banana pudding Love that they endorse local businesses, right when you walk in there is a table full of cards for cleaning, dispensary deals, stickers, barbers, etc etc. The young ladies working were very friendly!
