    Deathwish
    Jennifer L.

    Tidbit! Yes, this Michelin-recognized noodle house is sandwiched next to a Comfort Dental. Blink and you'll miss it! Glo sits just off of Tennyson Street, one of my favorite streets for honest, unfussy eating. The room glows -- literally -- bathed in neon light that gives the place the feel of a ramen shop that exists somewhere between a true Tokyo side street and a well-loved local haunt. It is loud in the way that good restaurants are loud: full tables, people leaning in, bowls being set down with purpose. My friend and I did not talk much. We slurped our bowls of ramen, one spicy (Deathwish) and one not (Miso Bacon). That is its own kind of review. I'd come back to try the Mushroom, since it looks like it's truly vegetarian through and through. The staff moved through the packed room with the calm efficiency of people who know exactly what they are doing. They welcomed us without fuss and, when we had lingered at the two-hour mark, let us know gracefully despite the busy, clamouring entrance. Make reservations!

    Hidden away in the old Elitch Gardens, this noodle house is so much more than meets the eye. From the outside, you might not expect much... but the moment you step in, it's clear you've stumbled onto something special. I brought my girlfriend here for dinner, and by the end of the night we were both genuinely blown away. We opted for the omakase experience, and it turned out to be one of the best dining decisions we've made in a long time. Every course felt intentional, balanced, and creative. Nothing was just "good," everything had that extra layer of thought and execution that separates a solid meal from a memorable one. Each dish built on the last, showcasing a range of flavors and techniques that you don't come across often, especially in the Denver area. You can tell there's a real passion behind the menu. The cocktails deserve their own shoutout. They were playful, well-crafted, and unique without being gimmicky. It's exactly what you hope for when you're pairing drinks with a high-level meal. What I appreciated most was how this place manages to hit both ends of the spectrum. You could come here for a casual night out and have an amazing time, or you could treat it as a full-on dining experience and leave completely impressed. That kind of versatility is rare, and they pull it off effortlessly. It's honestly no surprise they've earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand, it's well deserved.

    been gluten free for 15+ years. The only ramen I experienced was top ramen and cup of noodles before all the fancy stuff became popular. BUT Glo Noodle opened the doors to the delicious, rich broth, packed with flavor in what is true ramen Super kind staff, quick service, cool vibes. All menu items can be made gluten free !!!

    This is a trendy nightlife styled fusion ramen spot that was delicious. The ramen I ordered was touted as spicy and so I got it half spicy just in case, had to take home leftovers as the portion was large and was slightly disappointed by the bacon it included. The broth held up well! The fried chicken bao and the deconstructed cheesecake were also delicious. If you can get a reservation this is a fun spot with friends or catching up with a pal or two.

    This place has been on my list for a while. We finally went when my friend came in town! Had an hour wait for 3 on a Friday night. It looks like you could have made reservations online beforehand but we decided to come last minute. The noodles were fantastic. I usually prefer thin noodles and these matched that preference! The noodle texture was great and I really enjoyed my pork mazeman. My mocktail, on the other hand, was very interesting but not particularly tasty to me. If you're looking for something unique to try, I would recommend it. If not, maybe try something else or save your drink money. Service was good. They were friendly! This place is not particularly well lit and definitely has a cool vibe. We sat at the bar.

    My friend and I had everything on the happy hour food menu. Absolutely fantastic food and great presentation. Great innovative cocktail list, great sake options and a few beer choices. We must go back for some ramen. Tricky to find the entrance which is facing south on 38th. Look for the Comfort Dental.

    One of my all time fave Denver spots. Great service, chill vibe, clean, excellent service, not too loud, best cocktail of my life, perfect food. No negatives. You should go and go back again.

    Miso bacon
    Hilary B.

    Really good ramen! I got the miso bacon and it was flavorful and huge. The staff constantly checked in on us. The restaurant is very small with not a lot of seating, so definitely get a reservation ahead of time. The vibe is fun but classy. Parking is easy on the side streets, but the restaurant is a little hidden next to a dentist office so it's a little tucked away and hard to find.

    PORK & SHRIMP TANTANMEN

    Always a great experience at Glo! My only suggestion would be that I wish they had a standard tonkotsu ramen! PORK & SHRIMP TANTANMEN: Overall, great flavor and not too heavy. Wish it had confit bacon, but still hearty. Perfectly cooked egg as well. DEATHWISH: Great deep flavor and the noodles and confit bacon were cooked perfectly. Quite salty for our preference though. Hamachi: So fresh in quality! I love the pairing with the grapes and Serrano. The white ponzu was also very well balanced. Tuna crispy rice: Maybe the best in Denver... The rice ratio was perfect and was not overly crunchy like most places. And the tuna still shined through. Aburi Salmon: Absolutely loved! They are so generous with the giant salmon pieces. Two sauces came with it, but one of them spilled all over our to-go food. The beige sauce paired nicely with the salmon though.

    Advice to any/all future diners....go here to have a solid mindset that this is (as the name says it all) a noodle focused restaurant. I might be one of those who didn't have that so when I came out of it after a very quick dinner with my daughter on a Saturday, I was feeling that my overall appetite wasn't completely satisfied, not because I didn't get to eat enough but because I didn't get to eat the kind of food I had in mind. The menu is sectioned out to 5 different categories (from "small' to "raw" to "tempura" to "skewers" to (last not but least) "noodles". And by far, the "noodles" is the largest section (although the whole menu is not necessarily massive. When I browsed their menu on Yelp (and the photos uploaded by the past diners), my eye got caught on something from the "raw" section or some other section so my focus was more towards that direction, not necessarily the main "noodle" section. At least I had a little bit of a misunderstanding when it came to their food offerings. Well, everything we ordered was good to delicious (the filet skewer with chimichurri was tender. A bit salty to my liking, however. The "tsukune" skewer was also tender and easy to split in the middle. Again, they can definitely use less salt. It was a bit too burned with noticeable blackened parts. They could use less "cooking" on the grill (all skewers are one piece, and the portion sizes are fairly small.) The aburi salmon was quite good. The perfectly "aburi'd" or "seared" I would say, the amount of sear on the outside was simply rightly done to a point where the inside was still raw and not ruined. The spicy tuna crispy rice cakes were good but disappointingly and unnecessarily small. The pork mazemen's noodles were impressively (Japanese way of) al dente. And again, the portion size is okay-ish so that part didn't impress us in any way. Service was good. From the point we were checked in until we left, all workers involved were pleasant and courteous to us. What surprised me was that it wasn't packed although we dined there during the peak time on a beautiful Saturday night. This was the indoor seating (the bar seating had some people but looked quite empty the whole time we were there.) They do have a good-size patio seating, and a good number of tables were occupied (by the time we left around 7pm.) I thought this restaurant was one of the talk-of-the-town restaurants. So yes, we didn't leave the restaurant feeling "very impressed" to be frank. Was it the overall portion size of each dish? Did we have way to high expectations? Not sure. For now, I am giving this place a 4-star rating. One thing I would like to say is that I can see myself dining there again so when I get an opportunity in the future, I will be gladly pay my visit. Then I truly hope to have different perspectives.

    Best ramen in Denver! Service is an 11/10 with some of the most delightful people. Ambiance and energy are off the charts, and whoever chooses the music I want to follow you on Spotify. This place should have a Michelin star I swear.

    Edamame covered in spicy sauce
    Richard W.

    I heard about this place because it was awarded a Bib Gourmand by Michelin (Congrats!), so we were really excited to try it. The decor and vibe are really fun. They have really neat decorations. The bathrooms are decorated in an arcade game theme. I would say that it's sort of an American izakaya vibe. Their menu is mostly Japanese fusion. We got some of the drinks, several apps, and ramen. There were some twists on classics like edamame (covered in a sticky spicy sauce) and tofu bao, which didn't quite hit the mark for me. The ramen was solid but did not stand out in any way. I may come back if the menu gets a significant refresh or possibly for a happy hour.

    Whipped yuzu cheesecake
    Amy B.

    This place has definitely earned its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition. I've been here twice and was very satisfied both times. Service has been excellent and attentive and knowledgeable. The restaurant has a fun ambiance with a cool mural. In terms of food, I've had the edamame, spicy eggplant, tofu, mushroom ramen, mochi crepes, and whipped yuzu cheesecake. That covers all of the vegetarian options except for the two vegetarian tempura options (onion rings and mushrooms). It is a little disappointing that out of ten ramen dishes, only one is vegetarian, so I will have to order the same thing every time I visit (the only reason why this is 4 rather than 5 stars). The tofu skewers are amazing but a very small dish, so I suppose I could order it with a bunch of other side dishes to create a meal. Still, the ramen is the main meal. The desserts are amazing and unique. I've had two of the three options on the menu, and I'm not the type of person who usually orders dessert, but I'm so glad I did here. The cheesecake (pictured) is unlike any other cheesecake I've had before, and same with the mochi crepes. Try to save room for dessert--it's worth it!

    Does this place make gluten free noodles available to customers? I couldn't tell when looking at the menu.

    They can make most things gluten free! If you just let your server know your allergies/preferences, they can let you know of the items that can't be made GF (only a few).

For better and worse, it's a neighborhood bar at its core. The most shocking thing is how they transformed the space from the previous tenants. It has a beautiful open layout with nice furniture and design. The bartenders are generally friendly and prices are in line with similar cocktail bars in Denver. The few times I've been here I've been in a cocktail mood. Negronis and Old Fashioneds are made well and are slow sippers I enjoy. They do have a nice selection of wines that I'll have to try when it tickles my fancy. The only hiccups here for me are some really long wait times for drinks. They usually have two bartenders and sometimes it gets really backed up. No one is running the floor when I've been there bussing and wiping down tables. Though I understand with a location here it can go from being empty to completely slammed in a matter of minutes!

The decor inside was clean with comfortable seating and a variety of bar seats and low tables. They also had virtual golf - an interesting mix. My one complaint is the amount of televisions. It had the amount I'd expect at a sports bar but way above sports bar prices. They could get away with removing 1-2 and still catering to the same crowd while appealing to those (like me) who don't want to have to sit in a corner and strategically place the chairs just to not have to look at a screen.

The guava flavor was so strong and present, perfectly balanced for the drink. I also tried the infante -- or at least a version of it, I asked if there was any way to make it the same as the sour with the foam, and our server told us the bartender would whip me up a unique concoction that was similar to that.
