Denver’s Best Chinese Restaurants | Eater Denver

"Come to Old Town for the hot pot; stay for, well, the hot pot — after all, it’s AYCE. Besides, just perusing the menu takes some time: It starts with 10 different broths, followed by about 25 choices of meat and seafood (think brisket and crab, lamb and clams) and a similarly sized selection of vegetables and starches, including bok choy, lotus root, tofu skin roll, and udon. And that’s not to mention the self-serve condiments bar." - Ruth Tobias

Old Town Hotpot is a must visit for meat lovers! 🥩🍲 They offer a wide variety of meats and an impressive selection of flavorful broths, from spicy Sichuan to herbal. Everything is fresh and tasty. Great hotpot experience!

What a fantastic experience! To start, our waiter Luke was happy to answer any questions that we had. He also showed us around the menu. Everything is labeled GF for gluten-free, which is so nice! We couldn’t believe how many broth, meat, and veggie options there are. We will definitely be back to enjoy this hot pot again!

This was my third time trying hot pot 🍲 but my first time at this restaurant. I enjoyed the atmosphere. Service was good, and the food ingredients were all tasty.

Wow, another Aurora strip mall amazing restaurant that you don't know about and then you go and feel like you're in a new world. Super cool spot. Clean, all you can eat!

This is my favorite hot pot spot in the Denver metro area! The selection is extensive, the ingredients are always fresh, and the quality of the meats is impressive. It’s my go-to place for celebrating Asian holidays with friends, and it never disappoints. Pro tip: don’t skip the milk tea with pudding for dessert—it’s always a highlight and the perfect sweet ending to a savory meal!

♿️not handicap accessible —-Wheelchair user be warned … the tables are too low for your wheelchair and legs to fit. I was excited to eat ,got in and couldn’t fit … Even if you fit at most any other place ….. that being said … I wish they would add an accessible table because everything else was excellent!! Great food Great service They even moved the food to a new table so I could sit next to the table and not impede traffic. But I’m very disappointed I’m an active wheelchair user And as wheelchairs go Mines low and fits under any table at any restaurant I’ve ever been, this is the first time this has ever happened, solely due to the electric pot-table combo … Mostly the reason I do reviews is so someone else doesn’t have to experience what I do. 🔨 Raising one table Adding risers to the accompanying chairs to remain the same seat to table height as the others. And then you’ll allow people with the same limitations as me to experience things they should of course , be able to!!

Great hot pot experience and the food overall was good. We really enjoyed the meats, some the sides & creating our own sauces. I would recommend getting the dumpling house sauce they have. Our servers was amazing. I recommend coming here.

I have been on a hot pot frenzy! Maybe it's the cold weather or it could just be my cravings for good food. The trick is to come early like we did at 4pm on Saturday for no wait. I went here when it first opened and since then their broth game has really leveled up. It's soooo friggin' delicious. We had the spicy broth and the herbal broth. I truly enjoyed the spicy broth bc it was the perfect balance of spicy flavor without annihilating your taste buds.

This place was delicious! The restaurant is located in a strip mall in Aurora. The interior is nice and modern/remodeled. There is ample seating and each table has several burners for each place setting. They are all you can eat and all the meat comes in thinly sliced frozen rolls. The veggies are fresh and they come in plates with various veggies. I ordered the dark chicken broth and are mostly the fatty beef, lamb and brisket with lots of veggies. They have a sauce bar that I really liked. I don't know what concoction I put together but it was tasty and there were lots of options. The service was fast and they did a good job keeping our drinks filled. We really enjoy our time here. This is our go to Hot Pot place in the Denver metro area.

Great hot pot spot in Denver that I will be back again when I'm in town! We went back in April this year and it was snowing the day we went to Old Town. Perfect weather for hotpot. Service: can't remember the servers name now But he was great. He was very friendly and attentive. Ambiance: minimal decor with the large dining room. It's casual and family friendly. Food: the pot is kinda mini but quite cute for an individual pot. I love that they offer dark chicken herbal broth. I also love the seafood options here that the clams are huge and delicious. Lots of options for vegetables as well. I love that they offer many items on the menu that you don't see in other hot pot place. However, their beef quality is mediocre but justifiable for the price. Overall. It's a great hot pot place for seafood and veggie options. We will return on our next trip!

We came here for dinner tonight, and he ordered the Dark Chicken broth, and I ordered the Tom Yum. We shared lamb, brisket, tripe, oyster, octopus, fish ball, quail egg, tofu, enoki mushroom, black fungus (wood ear or cloud ear fungus) mushroom, bok choy, lettuce, pumpkin, lotus root, broccoli, and winter melon. Phenomenal value, as you can order all you eat meat, sea food, and veggies, for the same price. We also ordered jasmine tea. Clean venue. Good service. Nice to be able to control your own hot pot. Haven't had as good as this since San Francisco and San Jose. A new favorite restaurant!

Enjoyed a great meal here at Old Town Hot Pot on a Sunday afternoon around 2:30pm. There was no wait and plenty of open tables. All of the staff members wore masks, which was nice to see from a health and cleanliness standpoint seeing as they do handle the raw food items being brought to the table. They were attentive, quick and friendly! One thing to note is that if you are seated at a booth, the benches are very hard and uncomfortable after being there for the duration of your meal unlike the cushioned chairs at the standalone tables. My husband and I made the mistake of plopping down into the booth too hard right off the bat and we both went ow! Besides that, this restaurant was delicious and had a nice variety of quality proteins, fresh veggies and carb options to choose from. The individual soup pots are fun and make the experience that much better to be able to try different soup offerings with whoever you're with and you can also control the heat for cooking your own items. The only protein I would say wasn't worth the time or effort was the whole blue crab. It had very minimal meat and was hard to eat as they split it down the middle and don't provide you anything to help crack open the claws. The sauce bar is also a fantastic touch to the place with a wide variety of flavorful options to build your own dipping sauces. I recommend mixing together sesame paste, soy sauce, vinegar, a touch of sesame oil, ginger and cilantro! Don't forget to put on gloves as well to prevent contamination and germs from others touching the spoons. All in all a meal that is worth the price, delicious and the included dessert at the end of our meal had us saying we're so full and can't wait to come back!

Food was good, service was quick. Who doesn't love hot pot and alcohol? I was visiting my friend and they mentioned there was a good hot pot place recommended by their nail tech. Flavors are pretty authentic from what I'm use to. I come from a predominantly Asian community in Southern California (San Gabriel Valley) and this place was great. Veggie options were phenomenal and fresh as well. They have tangho (crown daisy) for all your Asian auntie needs. Meats were thinly sliced and fresh. Dark Chicken Soup base- was as authentic as can be. There was a piece of black chicken in the broth, it was silky and tender. You can really taste the hint of herbs used to simmer in the broth.

The food is awesome. Love that it's all you can eat. I got the original base, but spicy is also a good option. The employees are very nice. I felt bad because I had to change tables many times and they were fine with it. The interior is very clean and organized. It has Asian themed decor. And their dessert is very good. Jasmine milk tea with pudding, and it's refreshing.

Okay Old Town!!! A couple of friends have been trying to get me down here alllll year and today was the day i finally got the chance to stop in for lunch! And let me just say..I have been missing out all year long! Came in on a Saturday around 2pm and there were plenty of seats available and no wait time. Our server was super quick and meant business. The kimchi broth was absolutely fantastic! It has a nice little spicy kick, the type that loosens your boogies. It was so good!! We ordered brisket, shrimp and potbelly for our meats and a variety of veggies. The portions are pretty big and could be shared with 2-3ppl but you can def order more as you go. Rice and sauce area was well kept, and I love that they have signs for customers to put on gloves for sanitary purposes while getting your rice and sauce. They have a wonderful Soju selection as well as other alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. They have rooms you can book for larger parties as well. Definitely enjoyed myself! 10/10

We go all the time it's a very good price for all you can eat I also feel like they give you a good amount of vegetables and meat each time you order unlike some of the other places we've been. Plus you get a free dessert at the end which is amazing I've ordered two before lol it's just so good!

Horrible service. The half blone half black hair asian girl wearing black nike acg tee just gave us an attitude like this is her last day of work. We don't even have water the whole day and not even come by and ask us if we need any refill or anything. Just unacceptable service. I'm paying for my food and begging you to give me food. This is all you can eat you as a server have to ask if we need anything else, not waiting for us to looking for her and I don't even see her when we need her too. It's sucks. Really really bad service!

This is a fun place to eat with friends or family and opportunity to try a different dining experience. Great selection of everything. Plenty of meats, seafood, and vegetables to choose from. Tables are tight for a group of 6 but made the experience feel like home. Service was very good and the broth was refilled upon request. Servers are friendly and helpful, they answered our questions and explained how service works. No issues with the hot plate settings, everything was working. There's a station with all kinds of sauce and garnish available. The restaurant is very clean and spacious.

Great place! Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday around 2:30pm (past the rush) and the servers were very quick and the food came out fast. I can appreciate that they give the meat portions out generously and also do warn you ahead of time to limit to 2 servings of meat and then adding on since there is a wasted food charge. Delicious ayce meal at a great price point. Very large and open dining area with great ventilation so it didn't feel stuffy at all when eating which is always great.

This place definitely serves amazing delicious food! It's always fresh and the service is really good. My favorite type of food is anything soup, so when my friends introduced me to this place I became obsessed! When I go, I always order the kimchi broth and make myself "Army Soup", a famous South Korean soup, which is also my #1 favorite soup. Anyways, delicious! Everyone I meet I always ask if they've ever heard of or had Hotpot and recommend this location.

The meats at Old Town are better than most other hot pot places I have gone to but the broth is not as memorable. I assume this is so, so that the fresh cooked ingredients can take center stage as opposed to the broth stealing the limelight. For more common meat orders, like beef, pork and lamb, I would recommend this place. But for more exotic cuts of meat, I would go elsewhere. We ordered the tripe and intestines from here and thet were not as flavorful as we expected. The jntestines tasted more like gizzards. Then again, the more adventurous meats aren't everyone's favorite.

This AYCE joint takes Chinese hot pot to the next level with individual hot pots for each person, and it happens to be the BIGGEST hot pot place in Colorado?! You can start with building your own sauce at their DIY station. It's like having your own personal bubbling cooking station. With eight different broths to choose from, you'll be broth-ering yourself with the tough decision of which one to choose! Lots to select from on the menu with an assortment of raw meats, veggies, noodles, and dumplings into the hot pot. Be careful not to go overboard and turn into a "hot pot"ato. To get a little boozy, they offer a refreshing lineup of drinks. Wash it all down with some soju or beer because, let's face it, you'll need something to quench that fire in your belly.

I got mixed feelings on this one. The food was good, but the place is just like a hudge room with waist high walls. Another thing that I didn't like was the lack of chicken! Chicken is the main meat I get at hot pots and they don't have chicken here. That said the brisket, which my daughter loves, was super meaty - no fat. Best brisket at any hot pot I've been to. Service was good, no issues there. Sauce bar was good. The only things we didnt like was the lack of chicken and the atmosphere. I wouldn't tell anyone not to go here, but just keep those 2 things in mind if you are thinking of going here.

Another great hot pot addition to the City of Aurora and Havana Street! This AYCE location offers a good selection of meat, veggies, and seafood. In addition, dumplings and seafood pancakes are included. A couple of items that are offered here that I haven't seen at other hot pot locations are the baby octopus (better than squid) and the lobster balls. The space is large and seems well cleaned and maintained. Gloves are provided and required at the sauce bar, which is a nice hygienic way to try to keep patrons a little healthier. But let's face it, it's still an AYCE hot pot, so is hygiene really your main priority? The staff are very kind and attentive. The one thing that this place lacks (mainly from a child's perspective) is ice cream. However, they offer a jasmine milk tea with custard dessert which is excellent. It's a more traditional flavor and not very sweet. Great for me. Not so good to the kids. It's a little farther from home than some other options, but I'm a big fan of Old Town Hot Pot. I've been here twice in the last month, and I'm sure that trend will continue.

Very solid hot pot with some items that you don't find on every hot pot menu! It's AYCE here, and you order the items which then are brought to you--different from other AYCE hot pot I've been to where everything is out on a buffet line and you grab the items yourself. There are pros and cons to each style, I think. With the way this place does it, I like that you don't have to get up and leave your pot unattended to grab more items. However it does mean that you need to wait for someone to take your order and then for someone to bring it to you. They have all the standard broth options, and the tomato broth is quite nice and adds a slight tanginess to everything you cook in it. They have a really extensive menu of hot pot items, including blue crab which I've never seen at hot pot before. That was a really nice treat, especially since you get the "crab miso" by cooking the whole crab. Vegetables are fresh, and overall it was a very pleasant hot pot experience!

Old Town Hot Pot is hands down my favorite hot pot restaurant in town! The quality of the food here is absolutely top-notch. Every ingredient is fresh, and the flavors are consistently amazing. The variety of broths and dipping sauces add so much to the experience, making each visit unique and delightful. The staff is always friendly and attentive, ensuring that we have everything we need for a perfect meal. Whether you're a hot pot enthusiast or trying it for the first time, Old Town Hot Pot is the place to go. Highly recommended!

There aren't really any hot pot places in Colorado that blow me away, but I like this place and Aki the best. If you have a large party, it's convenient because you can reserve a table! If not, I know the wait can be a while depending on the day. They are one of the few hot pot places with crab, but I typically avoid seafood in Colorado in general. Especially because it's no secret that the crab and other seafood is frozen. The meat is fine and same thing with other ingredients, including the sauce bar. My favorite part was the dessert they give you at the end (idk the name of it but it was delicious) The location is nice as well, being so close to HMart, Karaoke, and Tous les Jour. 4 stars because the service was great. We were celebrating a friend's birthday and they took the cake so we could make it a secret for our friend. They also gave us a knife, forks, and plates to eat the cake with! I really appreciated it.

Found the best time to dine at Old Town Hot Pot was around 4:30 in the afternoon on a rainy weekday. No queue, sat wherever I wanted, and attentive and speedy service. But at around 5:30, crowd started trickling in even for a weekday, by 6 it was packed again.

If you're vegan and in, or around, Aurora, Colorado, Old Town Hot Pot is a must-visit. This spot has quickly become one of my favorites for a fun and satisfying meal. The vibe is perfect for a casual dinner with friends or a date night. The staff is super friendly and always ready to help you navigate the menu and find the best vegan options. The hot pot experience here is fantastic. They offer two vegan broths, miso or vegetarian, that are both perfect for cooking up a variety of fresh veggies and tofu skins. The vegetable options include goodies like bok choy, spinach, corn and tongho, and their veggie selection has everything from enoki mushrooms to fried tofu skins and seaweed! The dipping sauces are another highlight. There's a whole bar where you can mix and match to create your perfect combo. My go-to is a mix of soy sauce, sesame sauce, chili oil, garlic, red pepper and soy sauce--it's delicious! Old Town Hot Pot is a vegan-friendly gem in Aurora. Whether you're a hot pot fan or trying it for the first time, you'll leave happy and full. It's definitely a place I look forward to visiting again and again.

Walk in is available for individual pots for a 4 person and 6 person tables. If you have parties of 7 or more, have to reserve in advance for private dinning rooms. Price is still $29 per and they do have a liquor license now serving beers and Soju. I like the fatty beef and blue crab. Broth is pork based, only one that is not is dark chicken.

Service 10/10 Food 10/10 Usually the AYCE locations you have to keep low expectations. But for the price this place is the best around the area. Service is great, everything came out so fast. Meats very really nice, great portions and didnt look sad unlike a lot of AYCE places. The veggies were so fresh, I have never been this happy with the quality of veggies at any AYCE hotpot even in other cities. They also have seafood pancake as part of the AYCE menu, doesn't have other appetizers like egg rolls so no biggie. One of the sad part was the Chinese doughnuts, they were not fresh, felt like they were kept since forever or they just thawed them and didn't fry after thawing, so may be skip that or see if you have better luck with them being warm/fried. There is a dessert with milk tea and jelly that is very light and refreshing, only AYCE hot pot where the dessert was actually worth eating. Going back again next week.

It's a great find. We saw a YouTube review by a local Asian dude. So glad we came. (Dave Chung) Unlike the other place I reviewed (Chubby Cattle). Their hours is clear and no hidden break hours. It's a great place. Large and nice decorated with a life size rickshaw in the front. You can order anything you want on the menu but just make sure you can finish. We don't want to waste food and the restaurant stated that they will charge if you leave large portions. Love the freshness on the meat , seafood, veggies. And big selection of sauces in the sauce station. My son loved the dumplings. It was literally all you can eat dumpling for him. The waitress was so kind as well, reminded us there is dessert that was included - caramel jelly in milk tea. So yummy. We only asked for one cause we were all so full. I can imagine on a cold winter day how this place could just be so crowded. Definitely a must go in Denver. Did I mention there was private party room? Great for cello as well. And at very reasonable prices. Only $28.99 per adult and $13.99 for my 9 year old.

Best hot pot place I have been to so far. Super fast service, good quality meats, decent selections of foods. It's almost always busy around dinnertime especially during the winter. Lots of selections for the soup base, all of the ones I have tried are good! Dark chicken has more flavor than the other non spicy soup bases. Good selection if ingredients to make your dipping sauce. I have been here many times and will never say no to coming back!

The ambiance of this hot pot location has the prefect balance of privacy and community. There are three sections plus a few actual private rooms; that I think are used for larger groups. Food and service is a solid 4.5 for the price you pay. If you are thinking coming on the weekend definitely make a reservation. *When you check in for your reservation PLEASE wait in your car. Don't be the people that crowd the entrance. The staff will appreciate this.

The ambiance of this place much resembles that of a chow hall on an (Chinese) army base: cold and sterile. With that said, the quality and selection of soups and ingredients is very good. In a right style restaurant setting it could easily get 5 stars.

What an excellent spot for hot pot , the individual pots make the experience unique to each of the guest in your party. The meat options were delicious and flavorful. The flavor boosters and veggies hit the spot and the service was excellent. Would definitely recommend (and I'm a picky person)

As I move back to Colorado I am greeted by Kevin the owner as I come back to one of my favorite hot pot restaurants. THE SERVICE: The service is fantastic as always, in fact it is better, today I noticed that the food came out very quick, the waiters check in on you more often, and when there is a table with dishes the staff quickley gathers around the table and makes what looks like a insane mess be spotless in a matter of seconds. THE FOOD: I swear the food has gotten better here, the cuts are more whole and the sides have great portions. As always, I love this place, it gave me an amazing first impression as well as a second impression. I plan to keep coming here and I believe you should visit as well!

I've been to this establishment frequently. There are some things that change visit to visit that make this establishment either a 3 or a 5 so I split the difference. The restaurant and dining area itself is beautiful. The chairs are not the comfiest and are kind of small. I feel incredibly cramped when I sit in them. The table is also a bit tall and far from your seating position which creates a weird eating posture. The actual pots themselves are gorgeous, they're bronze-ish with incredible detailed art all over. The broth here is good, I either get the equivalent to bone broth or the spicy broth, both are flavorful. Note, for first time hot potters, if you out a bunch of frozen food in your hot pot it will take forever to boil. It's all you can eat, you don't have to throw the entire table into your pot. Just cook and eat as you go. The clams are clams. They can be sandy or very clean it's a toss up. They're never bad. Mussels sometimes have a foul taste to them even after they've been soaking in the broth for a long time. The blue crabs are cut in half which is nice, I do enjoy that the kitchen took the time to split them for us. Veggies are all fresh and crisp. Noodles are good. Other meats such as lamb, white fish, sliced beef that are provided have large portion sizes and are appropriate for the amount of people sitting down without having to frequently order. Their sauce station is pretty great. A wide variety of salty, spicy, sweet, and aromatic options to choose from to build your perfect dipping sauce. Here they usually have food grade gloves available as well to eat your shellfish to keep your hands nice and clean. The wait staff and host are great. This establishment is incredibly busy and they still find a way to get you seated and get your orders to you in a relatively timely fashion. Bathroom is very clean. Sorry no pictures. I always eat first here. One day I'll post an update with pictures.

It's different from other hot pot places in the area because it is more focused on Chinese cuisine. It is delicious, the service is fantastic, and it's a big restaurant so often the wait for a table is shorter. I highly recommend the restaurant especially if you want hot pot on the weekends when smaller restaurants are swamped.

This was an ~experience~ that I can't stop thinking about! Choose your soup base, noodles and bottomless ingredients (they encourage no food waste with fees - only order what you need), and throw it in to cook at your pace. You can't go wrong - so don't worry about making a mistake - everything tastes SO GOOD. The price for an adult is your average buffet price and was very reasonable for all you get. Our server was able to explain everything to us and answered all of our questions without a hitch. And we had a lot of questions! The restaurant was filled with the chatter of friends and family, with the beeps of each hot plate firing up in between. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming; I can't say enough good things about this place! They don't take reservations for smaller parties so get there before a rush to snag a seat. Parking is in a free lot out front. Enjoy!

Food is good and once you order, items are brought out quickly. Servers are super nice. They have a lot of seating available. Expect to wait in line for the sauce bar but also not too bad if a wait. It was fully stocked the entire time we were there, never running out of ingredients. Meat and veggies and seafood was all super fresh! Would recommend! FYI comes out to $29 per person before tax and tip!

It's always a wonderful experience dining at Old town hot pot. I would easily give it a 5-star rating for several reasons. Firstly, the ingredients are fresh. The restaurant takes great care to ensure that all of their meats, vegetables, and other ingredients are of the highest quality, which really shines through in the final product. Additionally, the restaurant is always fast with their service, which meant that we didn't have to wait long to start enjoying our meal. One thing that really stood out to me was the variety of options available. There were so many different meats, vegetables, and other ingredients to choose from, which made it easy to customize our hot pot to our liking. The fish balls with the meat inside were definitely a favorite, and I loved being able to mix my broth with half herbal and half spicy. In addition to the hot pot, the restaurant also has a delicious pancake that we ordered as a side dish. It was fresh and crispy, and really complemented the flavors of the hot pot nicely. And the included caramel jasmine pudding dessert was the perfect way to end the meal. It was light and refreshing, and really helped to cleanse the palate after all of the rich, savory flavors of the hot pot. Overall, I highly recommend this hot pot restaurant to anyone in the area. The fresh ingredients, variety of options, and included dessert make it a must-visit destination for anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. The price for the hot pot was also very reasonable considering the quality of ingredients, so it's definitely worth it. Five stars all around!

Totally fun dining experience. You can choose from 7 different types of broths. I went with the standard and added some spices. So much fun to cook your own food. The beef and pork cooked in 1 minute and become almost spaghetti like. We had quail eggs, Chinese yams, taro root, sausage, dumplings, bok choy and more. The seafood cake was a big hit. The included dessert was a little too floral for me. Definitely worth a try. Great service!

HOT POT BUFFT AYCE YES PLEASE!! Just saw my friend here with fresh blue crab of course we will be here too!! When we got here around 5pm Sunday is not that busy. The sitting area is huge just like for a real buffet. But for weekend no 7 people and over for one table. Service is great! They are many waitress around to help you. We order most of the item on it and start Hot Pot Buffet with the broth of your choosing. There is a big menu with all the item on it and picture with it so you know what you are ordering. Seafood are very fresh. Unfortunately they are out of Oyster. The MEAT is ok. It was cut way too thin so by the time you pick it up to eat was shrank by a lot. Especially the INTESTINE!!! Is nice they have it but once is in the pot it shrank to a mini mini size. All the vegetable is very fresh too. Is a great place if you love SEAFOOD but make sure they have the Blue Crab or Oyster if that is what you are looking forward to before you go!!! The MEAT is ok. We will BE BACK!!!

It's another typical cold day in Colorado where it's snowing but the snow is not sticking to the ground so it's still somewhat safe to drive out for lunch. The interior of Old Town is really nice. It's spacious and bright. There are lots of seating and the parking lot is big but it's still really busy even when we arrived at 1pm. The staff is friendly and our waitress constantly checked in on us. Everything is done on a little machine that they carry around. The AYCE option is quite affordable and I can see why this is the hot pot is so popular. The pig born broth was really good. You can always ask your waitress for my broth when the level has lowered. There's a good selection of meat options. We ordered the brisket, fatty beef, pork belly, and lamb. Each are thinly sliced so it cooks quick in your hot pot. There are lots of veggie options. I highly recommend you get the fish ball with stuffing. That was delicious. The meal ends with dessert and it's a simple tea pudding. It's not too sweet but the perfect balance to your hot pot meal. It felt very soothing.

Used to like it when they just opened. I stopped by twice lately and the service seem pretty slow at dinner time.
