Absolutely great food here! Amazing flavors! I was excited to try the Mala mozz sticks with the thai basil sauce and it did not disappoint! The cheesepull was perfect! The beef stir fried noodles was soo good, it had that perfect smoky wok taste that I love. You have the option to add a fried egg on top which is a nice touch! Their chicken fried rice was also a fave, very flavorful! Bao buns are so soft and yummy the pickled radish on top is a very good addition! Everything came out nice and hot 🔥 I ended up buying their hot chili oil which was perfectly spicy for me, I love it! Great place to try, I will definitely be back to try other things on their menu!

One of the best places we've been to this year, and now our top recommendation in Denver. We came in and there were no tables, a small line formed. The host at the front was welcoming, informed us of the time, and seated us when she noticed we're in a rush. The waiter took our orders right away, recommended a zero alcahol beverage which was excellent, and had some jokes here and there which is always welcome. I got the beef fried rice, the wings, and we also got the sizzling spicy noodles with mushrooms. The beef fried rice was excellent. Different flavors get hit with each take, especially with the pickled stuff. I loved it. My wife enjoyed the noddles, but wasn't her favorite. The wings though... They were amazing. I'm not sure how they do it, but it was crispy, hot, plentiful, and has a hint of smokiness? It was great, we loved it. Overall, we enjoyed the food, and the staff was on top of everything. Smiling, happy, attentive, communicative. We'd definitely come back again.

Picked this restaurant for my last night in Denver and was a great choice. A good fusion of American and cantonese food. The Chucken curry and Mala curry were great and 90s vibes inside help round out the experience. The owner has an amazing personality and would go back again in future trips
