Found this amazing gem while we was driving from Colorado to Kansas. It's in a small town called La Junta, and honestly the food is soooo good that it kinda takes you straight to China even though you are still in Colorado lol. When we walked in, a couple tables was already taken and there was a few to-go orders too. The place looked clean inside and the staff greeted us nicely and was very courteous. After we ordered, our food came out in like 5 minutes, so the service was very quick. We got the Egg Drop soup which was very tasty, and I loved the big crispy noodles they served with it. Then we had the Shanghai pork, shrimp, and veggie Spring rolls .. so crispy on the outside and flavorful inside, pretty much a perfect combo.Then the Kung pao shrimp - was savory with huge crispy shrimps and veggies cooked just right. Then Thai basil chicken stir fry - was slightly sweet and mildly spiced for my liking but still balanced well with lots of veggies and chicken, and it tasted even better with the chili oil, just a burst of flavors. The pricing felt more like a big city like KC from main dishes ranging from $14 and upwards but the portion sizes really made up for it, so honestly I had nothing to complain about. To conclude, Food was prepared fresh and was excellent. We left with our stomachs full and then drove straight to Salina. A complete 10/10 place and highly recommended! read more

Best Asian Food we've had in Colorado. Service is great and very attentive servers It's out of the way but definitely worth going to if your on Hwy 50 read more

The food was well made and hot. The sesame chicken was crisp and the sauce was light. The chicken and vegetable dish was lightly sauced and well made. The service was good and they got us seated right away. The ambiance was small town Chinese restaurant. But it works. Asian Cafe is another winner in La Junta. read more

Wow, this is a spot of brightness in La Junta. Asian Cafe just recently opened the doors with a new owner and it's fantastic. This spot used to be New China and it wasn't very good. Well never fear Asian Cafe is here and they are knocking it out of the park with great service and great food. I took my Mom there over Easter weekend and we both enjoyed our selections of Crispy Orange Beef and Panang Curry. Yip, I'm on a curry kick. We were offered steamed or fried rice to accompany our dishes. The restaurant is fairly small, clean and it was packed full of diners enjoying everything from Pho to Pad Thai. The other thing is, it must be pretty hard to get a liquor license in La Junta because I wasn't able to enjoy a Kirin with my curry. Sad face here... On the bright side though, La Junta finally has an Asian restaurant worth dining at. Pro Tip: They also offer Take Out read more

Let's be honest here...options for dining (other than fast food chains) are few & far between in La Junta. So, imagine our surprise when we had really good food at Asian Cafe!! Thai-Chinese-Vietnamese options. We had Cashew Chicken & Chicken Pad Thai. Both were awesomely delicious! Well-prepared & nicely presented. We just had water, but they offer a full selection of soft drinks as well as some beers & wine. The owner was very friendly...they took over the location about 2 1/2yrs ago. Glad we took the chance & ate here. Nice surprise! read more

The food is delicious, however the lady they have working for them likes to tip herself without your permission. Because explain to me why one receipt says $52 and the receipt in my phone says $62. Now when I added the pops wouldn't the receipts still be the same number?? Sooo, she proceeds to add $10 to my payment. Without my permission. Make this make sense to me!!! Me and my family will no longer be eating there and thats really sad because we liked their food. But we aren't the type of ppl to allow others to rip us off like that. Idc if I was having trouble with my card you dont do that to ppl. That's disrespectful, weather you felt you deserved it or not. Ima sit back and whatch karma take over. I will be letting ppl know what happened around town though. read more

Great food, it's nice and cozy and the service is fast. It's definitely great for a quick lunch.

Food is good and prices are reasonable. The people are good customer service oriented.

This was my first time here. Hostess was courteous and friendly throughout my entire visit. I ordered the wings as an appetizer and was informed they might come out a little after the main course and I was fine with that. I swear I didn't wait more than 5 minutes and the food came out! It was delicious and steaming when it arrived at my table. Not shortly, the wings were brought over and they were prepared nicely. I will definitely be stopping by more often when passing through La Junta! Great job! read more

Asian Cafe - Mix combo of vegetables, chicken, beef and shrimp fried rice! The teriyaki wings were a appetizer. And a side of teriyaki sauce. - Thai Near Me - La Junta, Colorado

Stopping in town to watch our daughter play softball. The flavors were just a little different and great. We had the basil cream cheese wontons, egg rolls, Mango Tango, Drunken Noodles, and the Singapore Noodles with chicken. We would highly recommend this place! read more

Very good! Have eaten here several times and the food is always delicious. Recommended dining!

We love the Asian Cafe! They've actually catered for two dinners we had recently, which include a large birthday party and a memorial dinner. They prepared food for between 125-200. It was reasonable, delicious, accurate, and ready on-time. The manager, Charlie, was very generous with the servings, and is so so kind. The meat is a much better quality than you might find at other area Chinese food establishments. Some of our favorite dishes are: vegetable egg rolls, orange chicken, sesame chicken, beef udon, and the grilled chicken teriyaki. If you are budget conscious, go for the lunch specials. You won't be disappointed! read more

Always delicious and hot. We've really enjoyed trying different menu items. Friendly service. Take out is a big plus too. The orange beef is a favorite around my house. Glad they've chosen our neck of the woods! So good! read more

Great place for a huge variety of Asian food. The menu is big and everything I have ordered has been outstanding (my personal favorites are the Hunan beef and the chicken with garlic sauce). The owner is very friendly and makes great suggestions. Also, an excellent wait staff. Food is served quickly after ordering and is cooked fresh with outstanding flavor. This is our go-to for Asian food in southern Colorado. read more

There are two Asian restaurants in town. This is, by FAR, the better of the two! Every dish I have had at Asian Cafe is excellent! The vegetables are fresh, the proteins are not overcooked, and the sauces are unbelievable. Asian Cafe is the best restaurant in La Junta. Period. My only quibble with the place is the bitter green tea. Everything else is superb. read more
