On the Eater 38 Denver list (as of November 2022)
4-4.5 stars, rounding up for one of the better Vietnamese restaurants that I've been to in the Denver area. Savory Vietnam has a huge space for a restaurant, and they weren't busy at 3:45pm on a Sunday. The tables were extremely socially distanced at that time, and they had large screen TV's with the football games on. We placed our order online, and it was ready in about 15-20 minutes. We tried:
-Special Combination Rice Plate (Pork Chop, Beef, Chicken, Shrimp, Egg Roll, Served w/Steamed Rice, $17.95, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=L9cagYps8zKDEolJgVbe-g&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Yum- this was a giant box of food, and they didn't skimp on the different proteins. The shrimp and pork chop were my favorite, since the beef was slightly overcooked. However, all the meats were very flavorful, although a touch salty for my preference. The egg rolls were good, but a little chewy. The combination plate was a great value though, and I would order it again.
-Fried Shrimp Cake ($12, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=2NDZUFEQa19auaYyg0UyaQ&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg): Yum- so good! I loved the crispy edges of the fried shrimp cake, and how airy and crunchy the edges were. The actual shrimp cake was cooked perfectly, and delicious- highly recommended!
I'll be back to try their noodle bowls and pho. Only indoor seating was available, and they had hand sanitizer. Parking was easy to find since they had a giant lot.
