20 Best Chinese Restaurants in Denver

“Very cool spot, fun atmosphere, great service, great cocktail and wine list. Service from Abby was top notch and she had some great recommendations for other fun spots for us to try on our visit to Denver. Really the only issue is that we could order everything on the menu! We will be back for sure.“

“We ate outside. Great atmosphere and perfect weather, but didn't consider how many Harley riders there are in Denver. It didn't matter because everything else was so perfect. The server was attentive and not over present. The food was truly outstanding. It was creative and delicious showing the chef's skills while keeping the budget to reasonable. We try a few new restaurants a week in Denver since moving here from New York and have only been disappointed once. This was an overachiever that caught us by surprise. We've not repeated restaurants because there are still hundreds to try, but this might be our exception. What a delightful treat. We do have leftovers and after writing this am now ready to eat. They are larger portions. Try the Wagyu Lo Mein! OMG!“

“Amazing food and drinks. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable !We will definitely be going back!“

“Atmosphere is great! Service was excellent! Not loud like most big restaurants. Food was absolutely amazing! Not overly expensive. Make their dumplings fresh. Steak tenderloin and peppers was very good. Outdoor seating area is nice when it is warm. The winter pirk wonton soup is great. I have also never been disappointed with the seasonal vegetables (green beans, broccoli, bok choy). They serve soup dumplings ever so often and totally worth trying if they are available. They have an upstairs that you can reserve for parties as well. I have never been disappointed by anything I get here.“

“Good, almost great. The food is good but isn't very authentic and seems to lean heavily on salt and sugar to make it tasty. Having Chinese characters/Pinyin on the menu (where I was the only Chinese person in the entire restaurant) feels like the food should be authentic. Also, serving rice in a takeout container feels a little offensive given the sacredness of rice as the foundation of a Chinese meal.
However, the spice is nice and the flavors pop well if you're not expecting truly authentic flavors and are used to Westernized cuisine. Definitely above average for Asian food in Denver, but I'd recommend South Federal/Broomfield/Aurora for better and less expensive Asian food.
For the price and all the added service fees, I would have expected full service and food served in non-plastic dishes. It's a nice way to try some dishes without venturing out too far.“

“Hands down, best authentic Chinese dumplings (and more!) in Denver. Warm mushroom salad is obviously highly sourced, curated to perfection. Dumpling wrappers of exceptional quality, and cooked perfectly. House made soy!
A little heavy on the hoison in the bao buns sometimes, but that caters to the average American I guess. Just ask for light or hoison on the side. Xiexie, don't stop what you're doing! Wo xihuan!“

“Went here on a whim and I’m glad I did. The inside needs a little love but the food was fast and phenomenal. I got the chicken lo mein, chicken fried rice, and pork dumplings and they were all delicious. The sauce for the dumplings was amazing. Will be back“

“10 stars 🌟 Incredible experience from start to finish. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Very warm and comfortable environment. Extremely clean and open feeling dining space. Truly a neighborhood restaurant that will always make you want to return for more. Singapore noodles were amazing. The staff really was the highlight of the meal. I felt like family at the table. Holly was very friendly.“

“I have been ordering from New China Cafe for several years now. The food is some of the absolute best in Denver. Everything always comes out so fresh and the flavor is unparalleled. It is my favorite Chinese food in Denver.

Beyond the food, I have witnessed the owners and the staff go above and beyond every time for every customer. In the most genuine way, they make everyone feel like they are their number one customer! These days we take customer service for granted, but their hard work, kindness and service do not go unnoticed.

This will continue to be my go to Chinese food restaurant, not only because of the outstanding food, but because of the service!“

“Best scallops I have ever had. Great food, traditional Chinese. The restaurant is “older” don’t expect sleek Americanization. Focus on the great food.“

“Tried this place for the first time today and it was excellent! The customer service was genuinely so friendly. The woman who took our order was so lovely and helped me to find what gluten free options were available! I had the chicken and vegetables with white sauce. It was delicious, cooked perfectly, and very affordable given the quality!“

“This experience was ok! Our waitress was super nice and took care of us pretty well. The menu is really nice. We all got our order in quickly! The biggest bummer was that our food took over 30 minutes and there were only 4 tables in the whole restaurant. A table of 6 sitting next to us got their food before us and ordered after us. When we got our food, it was really good! My soup was so good. We all loved the experience minus the wait on food“

“Ordered delivery while staying in downtown hotel. Was prompt, a huge amount of food making it well worth the cost and absolutely delicious. We had the sesame chicken, Mongolian beef, chicken stir fried mei fun and the beef fried rice. None of the meals were over saturated with sauce and the meat was so tender. We loved all of it and I believe the leftovers will heat up nicely!“

“I could not recommend this place more. Not only was the food fantastic the service was impeccable. I came in with my service dog and party of 8; they managed to serve us all equally without fail. we tried about 8 items in total and they were all fantastic. An amazing spot!!“

“We have been coming here for a couple of months now and love the food. Really good prices and for the amount of food served.

There’s about 3 places closer to us but all have had horrible experiences and this place has been nothing but amazing!“

“I love the experience. It was my first time trying that restaurant they were very nice. I love the decor. I love the menu the food taste great.“

“I love coming here because it's on my way home from work and the combination pho is my favorite. However in my last few visits it seems that the recipe or the chief might have changed and the flavor of it has changed. Its still tastes acceptable but it's not as good as it used to be. 🥲“

“it's really good place to go and eat but sometimes they get the ginger sauce mixed up with a different sauce and mess up ur order but the fix it most of the time“

“Amazing. Better than places we went to in NYC and Washington DC area. This is authentic cooking that is relatable, flavorful, reasonably priced. Packed for lunch mid-week. Given the prices now of going out, ditch the hipster places and come here.“

“Not only was my take out experience INCREDIBLE, the women helping me was so so sweet and the place looked so clean, but our food was genuinely have never been so impressed by such a hole in the wall spot. Will forever be my new favorite place in cap hill. Thanks for providing such a experience all around!“
