GOLDEN SAIGON Restaurant

If I lived closer I would be there all the time!! First time I went I ordered takeout and for the crispy sesame tofu and vegan spring rolls. They gave me a free house made ginger ale with my order too! The tofu stayed crispy on the 30 minute drive home and is honestly some of the best tofu I’ve had in/near Denver (and I eat a lot of tofu🤣). Second time I went I dined in. Service was excellent and after I ordered they brought me a free vegan app (after confirming my dietary preference!) and another ginger ale (which is really tasty by the way). I ordered the vegan egg rolls with the lettuce wraps this time and oh my god, 10/10. I also ordered the crispy sesame tofu again and it did not disappoint. Overall a great spot with super friendly service and tasty vegan options!

I placed a to-go order for the Vietnamese spring rolls, the spicy chicken wings, the combination grill plate, and a large steak pho. The guy on the phone was very nice and courteous and a pleasure to talk to. When I got to the restaurant to pick up, I was told that they did not have the chicken wings, Instead, they gave us the crab cheese wontons. Neither of us like crab wontons. It would have been ideal to know at the time of ordering, so I could’ve picked something that we would have eaten instead. the guy at the restaurant was very pleasant and courteous, and a pleasure to work with. When we got home, we discovered further problems with our order. The combination grill plate was missing the beef completely. The cucumbers were just the outside skin peelings and it had inedible large chunks of white onion underneath for some reason. I received some other variety of Pho that contained what I think is tripe and some kind of gristle and sausage. 🤢 I was able to exclude it from what I ate, but it was a quarter of the portion of my meal. It contained very little steak which was what I wanted. The spring rolls looked in good order, but they forgot the peanut sauce so even those were not what we hoped. Perhaps if we had received what we had ordered we would’ve enjoyed our meal but after this, we will not go back again.

Vietnamese spot with classics and some other Asian items too. Food: 4.5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Cost to worth it rating: 3 (bun bowls $17) Opentableable: no Return worthiness: yes Highlights: - Crispy egg rolls: bumpy crispy exterior and filled with pork inside. Delightful version. 4.5 stars - Bun bowls: large sized with soft noodles and fresh veggies. Pork was in small slices and glazed a bit and full shrimp was plump which I loved since some places give you flat small butterflied overcooked pieces. 4.25 stars - Chicken dumplings: steamed with a good thin wrapper and tasty filling. 4 stars - Ginger ale: freshly made with real chunks of ginger and some sweetness. 4 stars - Nice semi circle booths in the back - Decor: cute white lights, greenery, and Asian art pieces. Lowlights: - Took a while to come take our order but think they were short staffed that day but gave us a few appetizers which I appreciated.

Their dishes will bring you so much comfort. My absolute favorite is the Vegan curry. I couldn’t decide today between my fav and the lemongrass tofu noodle soup….I went with my fav and they brought me out the lemongrass tofu noodle soup on …

Service is truly unmatched, Brandon took care of us! All the of the staff was excellent. 10/10 Food had great flavor, authentic , and very filling. 10/10 Will absolutely return. Ginger ale is a must.
