We stopped by before dinner hour on a weekday and was seated right away. Service was fantastic, made me feel like I had been there multiple times. The decor of the place is interesting. It seems old, but they did a great job with the plants. The food, however, was just okay. The flavors didn't wow me, but I'm comparing it to my time in Vietnam so it might be a bit unfair. I think I would eat there again if I was in the area, just not enough to go out of my way for it.
I can’t say any else besides being the best when it come to Vietnamese restaurant in Aurora. I believe to be family owned and run restaurant providing the best customer server you can ask for. They always give you freebies and tea for people waiting for takeout. They offer some of the best home-styled food, a little different stands out with other places!
Awesome food and service. We had to wait about 15 minutes but the staff was so kind as to give us a free appetizer and ginger drink. On top of this the food was fantastic and they even topped off my to-go pho leftovers. Best experience I've had for Vietnamese in Denver!
I travel for work and always hit up a Vietnamese restaurant for my comfort food Phò. Golden Saigon is definitely 5 stars. Excellent food, above and beyond service. It’s like dinner at a friends house. My only complaint is that I don’t live in Denver and can’t come back every week to try all of their delivery authentic offerings Keep up the good work guys you really gave us a great experience and fine food.
I am visiting my friends in CO and we wanted to try some Asian food, so we searched around and found this place. I asked how big the LARGE pho was, and the server showed me, but in reality the LARGE bowl is HUGE. I definitely overestimated myself Lol. The service is by far the BEST Asian restaurant I have ever been. They are also super fast with your food orders too. Of course, they gave us some freebies while waiting for our order! Yum! Food was qite good and the service definitely was the best.
Great little restaurant! The staff were so kind, nice and clean restaurant with fast service. They gave us a complementary starting dish! The mamas curry was so good! Same with the sweet and spicy wings! The pho was alright but I would reccomend you try the many other interesting things from their restaurant
The Best!! The wait at this 20 booth restaurant was about an hour with a line out the door. They've been here for years and you can tell from their ratings it's a local favorite that's well loved from people all over! The little restaurant is hidden in a small shopping strip next door to a Subway and across the street from a liquor store. The best hidden gems are found like this! But this one tries their best to take you away from the not so pretty out door view by creatively shielding their customers view of the outside parking lot with a wooden fence, to create a small outdoor patio with seats for the warmer weather, adorned with the yellow glow of Christmas lights. Step inside and you are taken back with the old 19th century, prohibition speak easy feel with the dimmed lights, leather pleated round booths, white table cloths and plants beautifully hung in each nook and cranny. Such a romantic setting or a great place to celebrate a get together with friends. You go inside and you don't feel out of place if you're dressed down in sweats or over dressed by wearing a Blazer. It's just that kind of feel. Once seated you are greeted with water and a smile while handing you their menu. It's not an overwhelming menu, but they have options for all! Traditional Chinese and Vietnamese food and let me tell you.. the delicious aroma that hugs your nose once you hit their front door has you already excited for what you're about to choose! We couldn't choose just 2 things to share.. we had to do this family style and just take the left overs home! We started with 2 Handmade ginger ales, the traditional Vietnamese spring rolls wrapped in a rice paper wrap stuffed with vermicelli noodles,leafy lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, shrimp and grilled pork. $3.95, A cup of Blue Crab Soup $3.95, A Cup of Hot n Sour Soup $2.95, Chicken Wings $9.95... while we waited they brought us a complementary plate of fried curry sauced dumplings and their version of Crab Rangoon! Oh my it was soo delicious and we were pretty much stuffed now! But our food was coming... Matt got the Bun Bo Hue soup which is Beef brisket with rice noodles in a spicy beef broth. $10.95 he said it was he most flavorful broth he's ever tried before! Considering how many pho places I've dragged him to, to review, that says a lot since he isn't usually a fan! He ate all his noodles miserably and had to take the broth home to go lol! I had to wait a bit for my dish to come out, personally I think they forgot my dish but they were so busy I understood. I received my Crispy Tofu with Spicy sesame sauce. $11.95 it was sweeter than I expected and verrrry crispy on the outside and soft firm tofu on the inside. It was a delicious unexpected bite and I really enjoyed what I could eat of it! The side of white rice was a good contrast to kill the sweetness a bit. I only wish there were more vegetables. All in all.. we were two very happy customers who had no real complaints about anything. We found our new Asian spot and we want to come back and try everything else on the menu! When we were asking for our to go boxes our waitress was so kind enough to give Matt noodles to go for his soup, and both of us our drinks to go! The customer service here is amazing and the guy even remembered my name when we were in line to check out. I only told him once when I put my name on the wait list. Of all the people he checked out before us, I was impressed! They take such good care of you and really care about their customers experience!! If you're ever in the Aurora Area.. it's a MUST TRY!! But keep in mind.. they are only open Wednesday to Sunday 12pm to 8pm and they are busy every time! It's first come first serve, no reservation or online check in. So get there early!!
I have friends that take me here every time I visit Colorado and it is one of my favorite restaurants. This family owned restaurant serves a nonstop train of deliciousness. I always leave so fully you need to roll me out the door. Their sauces are top notch and their staff always make you feel welcome. Can't wait to come back and I wish 8 got pictures of the food but I was too hungry to wait!
Easiest 5 star of my life. This was my first time visiting the restaurant and the service felt as if I was a regular. The homemade ginger ale is killer and goes amazing with a splash of Maker's. The complimentary dumplings, Thai tea, and drinks were wonderful. Ordered the bun bo hue, combination rice platter, and bun with pork which were all delicious. Only wish would be to make the grilled pork thit nuong rather than the Chinese style bbq pork, but that's just nitpicking.
This is the best Vietnamese food I've had in a long time. I had their dumplings, crabmeat soup, Pho Tai, Lamb Curry, and hand pressed ginger ale. All of it was delicious. Mini Vann was the waitress, had great recommendations, was kind and personable, and did her job well. Due to the experience and the food, I'll definitely be back.
