    Dandan Noodle & Woodear Mushroom Salad
    Andrea G.

    Super impressed with everything we ordered! Great quality and freshly made meals! INCREDIBLE MEAL! Location is cute and comfortable! I want to come back!

    Vegan "water fried" bao. Perfect little snack!
    Stephanie C.

    Stopped in for a small snack with my husband to tide us over to dinner while we were in Denver. We had the "water fried" vegan bao, which is a bit more like a dumpling than what I usually think of as bao, but it was tasty and really hit the spot. The location is small, but tidy, and since we were there in the afternoon but before the dinner rush, it was relatively quiet. There was outdoor seating that would presumably be nice in warmer weather, but we stayed indoors because it was cold. Their restroom floor is slightly scary in that it looks a bit unstable and cracked, and it definitely showing some wear and tear, but was otherwise fine. Service was friendly and the food came out pretty quick. If I had more time, I would have liked to stop by at some point to try their vegan Dan Dan Noodles, but we didn't end up having a ton of wiggle room on our trip--maybe next time!

    Pork water-fried dumplings

    I was in town for work and this place was about a block and a half away, and I was craving dan dan noodles and dumplings. My favorite are water-fried dumplings (shengjian bao), so I ordered 8 pork along with a bowl of dan dan noodles. I wanted a drink too, but they were out of the classic milk tea, so the cashier recommended the peach tea with boba. Dumplings were great! Crispy bottoms, juicy filling -- exactly what I was hoping for. The dan dan noodles weren't as spicy as I like, but I appreciated that they included mustard greens and bok choy, which gave the bowl some nice texture and freshness. The bubble tea was... not good. Just way too sweet for my tastes, even after stirring it a few times. I ended up not finishing it. I came by during lunch and it was fairly busy. Most tables were full, but as a solo diner I was able to snag a table for two without any issue. Overall, solid spot for dumplings and noodles if you're in the neighborhood -- I'd definitely come back, but I'll skip the boba next time.

    I'm kinda fascinated by the vibe of this place. The decor feels like elevated casual dining while still maintaining a hole-in-the-wall small business energy. I came here with Hubby to keep him company while he ate dinner. I didn't order anything because I had already had eaten prior to coming here. But based on this first visit, I decided to come back the next day for lunch. I ordered the Vegan Dan Dan noodles which came with corn, baby bok choy, and pickled veggies. The amount of toppings were so abundant, you can't even see the large amount of noodles underneath. But they're in there with a light sauce. This meal hit the spot! https://yelp.to/tAOwJfnCvQ If I had a bigger appetite or more time in Denver for another visit to Chopsticks, I would check out the Vegan Bao. If I ever make a trip back to Denver, I'm coming back here :)

    Soup Dumplings, mushroom, chicken potstickers

    For Colorado it's a 4 star rating For the Bay Area, it's a 3 It's always when I travel I crave "home" food. I swung by here to grab some soup dumplings because of the reviews. It is fairly priced. Not really a restaurant setting (more like a Five guys for dumplings) * I got: - soup dumplings: meat didn't have flavor, dumpling wrapper is too thick, broth is okay. - chicken potstickers: "very popular" but I didn't like it at all. No flavor at all. - Woodward mushroom: loved this one! Overall the best part of this was the Woodward mushroom & how fast the food came out. Service was also good! Unfortunately I threw away half of the dumplings and some of the soup dumplings away..

    Peach Milk Tea

    Great dumplings!!! Line to order. Tip requested for pickup (I missed that 8% was added by business as a tip). Out of all rice dishes. Sugary sodas and teas with sugar too. Bao was excellent. Small but a few in an order.

    My husband and I were looking for a light snack to share, and we stumbled upon chopstickers... We are both suckers for a good steamed bun so we decided to try it! We weren't disappointed. We were cursing ourselves that we had decided to share because we both wanted to eat as many steamed buns as we could possibly fit into our bellies! The restaurant was clean inside and the service was great. Our food came out really quick and was super fresh. If you love, steamed buns... This is the place for you!

    The service is minimal and you pay first so you don't need to tip too much. The food is authentic, but very salty. It's a casual place for some comfort foods.

    Soup dumplings
    Adam Y.

    The Chopstickers at 16th and California was packed during lunch hours. With all seats taken for dine-in, many people had to share tables and made it part of the dining experience. Did not order xiaolongbao this time, but ordered the beef noodle soup and the new peach milk tea with jelly instead. The beef noodle soup was not as spicy as I thought, perfect for someone like me who normally avoided spicy food. The soup was rich, aromatic and not overly salty, the beef was slow cooked, tender and juicy and the handmade noodle was fresh, flavorful and chewy. Authentic, tasty and enjoyable overall. The peach milk tea was refreshing and fruity, but should ask for less ice, as it took me some effort to get to the jelly stuck between the ice cubes.

    Vegan Steamed Bao
    Tuhin C.

    Chopstickers is pretty close to the Denver convention center and they also have vegan and vegetarian options! I was trying to be more plant based this day so I went with the Vegan Dan Dan Noodles and the Vegan Steamed Baos. Steamed baos were great and tasted similar to baos that I used to eat in the morning while living in China. The Dan Dan noodles were decent, but one of my bock choy pieces felt a bit cold and off. However, service was kind friendly at this place!

    Pork Belly Buns
    Cindy C.

    For Denver, I guess this can be about a 4 but from LA, roughly about a 2. However, I'm all about supporting small businesses but the flavor of the Dan Dan noodle was not proper to what it should taste like. The soup dumplings were probably machine made, frozen, and tasted mediocre (like Trader Joe's frozen soup dumplings). The pork belly bun wasn't too bad. Portion more decent and staff were friendly. However, the restroom was disgusting and the tiles were loose and quite dangerous to use.

    beef noodle soup, noodles separate from soup. good job! and xiao long bao (soup dumplings)
    Sophia Y.

    minus 1/2 star because I came 30 minutes before closing but they said "take out only" I was just one person and would've liked to eat the food there when it was hot and fresh. But they made me to take out and minus 1/2 star by the time I got back to my hotel the soup dumplings (xiao long bao) weren't optimal. Regardless the soup dumplings didn't come with the usual black or red vinegar with ginger. It did have a "ponzu" sauce but that was soy sauce + citrus. Not the same. Also the skin seemed a little on the this side. impressive that they had legit Apple Sidra (apple soda that is legit Taiwanese) Delicious, better than martinelli's. Don't know what's in it though... the beef noodle, I was impressed that they packed the noodles separate from the soup And that there were lots of veggies and corn! I love corn!! And the beef chunks were soft, plentiful, and generally this was a great dish! Ambiance was pretty happening for Chinese restaurant, but again I was said that I wasn't allowed to eat there and had to take to go. Sad table for 1. loved that it was so close to my hotel.

    I travel to Denver every so often for work. About 6 months ago I ordered this food to my hotel. When I left Denver I immediately told my finance about this place and how we needed to come to Denver and try it together. In the 3 times since I've been back for work, I've gotten Chopstickers every single time. I've told myself each time I'd go in store but usually I am to beat from work to deal with getting downtown. Even through delivery the food arrives to my hotel which is about 25 min away fresh and amazing ! I can't get over how good this place is. The noodles are absolutely incredible and the Pork Water Fried Bao is absolutely phenomenal. God bless this place for existing

I appreciated this since there was no way anything was going to tip over & spill. Very friendly phone & counter service as well. Note, you get six free Cheese Wontons when your order is more than $40. We ordered three different entrees with three different sides - Steamed White Rice, Fried Rice & Lo Mein Noodles. The sides were good, however the fried rice didn't seem fried, it was white rice with soy sauce. The Sweet & Sour Shrimp Entree was tasty - the shrimp were medium sized, cooked perfectly with a delicious sauce. The Sesame Chicken Entree was even better, the chicken was moist & tender. The beef in the Mongolian Beef Entree was great however there were way too many onions in the dish. Overall, a very satisfying meal.

We ordered the fried tofu (with peppers and onions), orange chicken, fried fish fillet, and veggie delight (mixed veggies). The fried fish fillet was definitely the standout. Perfectly crispy on the outside with a light, tangy layer of sauce that added flavor without making it soggy. Easily my favorite dish of the meal. The fried tofu was also really solid and flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The peppers and onions complemented it well without overpowering the tofu itself. The orange chicken was okay. I tend to compare orange chicken to Panda Express (probably unfair, but it's my benchmark), and this one didn't quite hit that same balance of crispiness and sauce. I think if it had a bit more meat within each piece, would be better. The mixed vegetables were decent but not something I'd order again. They felt a bit drenched in sauce and didn't have much depth in flavor. One of the highlights of the visit was meeting an elderly woman who helps out when it gets busy. She mentioned she was the former owner. She was incredibly kind, and we ended up having a really nice conversation in Mandarin. That personal touch made the experience even more memorable. Otherwise, really nice venue with lots of space and tables. Waiters always refilled my water, which is a good plus. Also gave me fresh rice when I took the leftovers to go. Overall, a solid meal with a couple standout dishes. I'd definitely come back for the fried fish fillet and tofu. Will be back to try their other dishes.

Lately it feels like a lot of restaurants are charging more while giving less, and it's getting harder to find places that actually care about the customer experience.

Two of the three sides were served cold, the dumplings at least came out hot, but they were pretty mediocre and nothing I'd order again and drinks were extremely over priced. The waitress was fine, no real issues there, but it did feel like the food may have been sitting in the kitchen too long before it hit the table even though the place was empty. At the end of the day, it's hard to justify paying that kind of money for cold, underwhelming food, then feeling awkward about the tip because the experience just wasn't good. I won't be back. If I had known this is what the experience was I would have definitely gone somewhere else. As an added bonus I felt like crap afterwords, I think it was because of poor quality ingredients. My aim in writing these reviews is to highlight the restaurants and businesses that truly take care of their customers, to give people a heads up about the ones that clearly do not prioritize quality or the customer experience, and to express myself in a world where it often feels like there is very little room to speak honestly about paying top dollar for mediocre experiences.
