    We were 2 and sat at a table in a little alcove. Perfect. My son has to eat GF food and they have a fabulous paper menu showing exactly what it GF. He was so pleased! Service was excellent. We have great cocktails and I had a good red wine. We had the Empress Noodles (lots of veggies and we added chicken, a whole meal) Prawn skewers, super good and tasty dipping sauce. I had the pork bao buns..because Bao. All was good. Came quickly. Music is ED and is slightly loud if you are trying to talk. love the location, close to DCPA and Ball arena.

    This might just be my favorite restaurant in Denver. The basement is one of the coolest spots we have ever dined—such a cool vibe. The pasta is out of this world, the wine selection is fantastic, and the service is top notch. Can’t say enough good things!

    Always top notch service with wonderful food selections. I had tofu tacos and asked for all the sauces on the side and they accommodated without hesitation. Our waiter (I believe his name was CJ) was super attentive, friendly and welcoming. This place is a family favorite
