Objectively, the best Vietnamese restaurant that I have ever been to in the United States. The Beef Pho: the pho broth has depth in flavor, doesn't get sour as you keep drinking it like most I've tried. The noodles were perfectly cooked, not too soft or hard. The beef came perfectly rare and cooked slowly in the hot broth, showing a slight bright red contrast to the deep, dark richness of the clean hot pho broth that was perfectly seasoned, quite picturesque with the contrast in color and flavor. The dish in its entirety was made with love. Noble in this day and age.
As for the appetizers, The deep fried pork egg rolls were nothing like I've ever had. The outer wrap is made out of taro if I remember correctly and the appetizer dish came with a fresh side of lettuce, pickled carrots, radish, and bean sprouts. Wrapping the eggrolls with the lettuce and placing inside pickled radishes made the perfect balance of fried, savory, fresh, and tangy, combined with the assortment of sauces forced the myriad of flavors to fight each for attention in my taste buds. The sauces Provided was a side of their curry sauce, fish sauce, and another sauce I can't remember the name of.
Tuan the owner, and the other waiter whom I did not get his name, and Isaac- which I believe was his name if my memory does serve me correctly, are generous, caring, and kind. To say the least, it is inspiring. The establishment is also beautifully furnished with walls that acknowledge the history and tradition of Aurora, and Denver, Colorado. I would definitely make this my go to place for Vietnamese food or just a pleasant lunch or evening place to go dine, where you know you will be taken care of and that the kitchen cares. Truly hard to find in this day and age where quality of services and goods go down and family owned businesses like this one are harder and harder to find.
