    Drunken Noodles Sesame Chicken Fried Rice Small Hot & Sour Soup  Small Won Ton Soup
    Taylor T.

    Little Dragon is our go-to for Chinese Takeout! It's a bit of a drive away from us (about 20-25 minutes) but we'd rather make the commute than order somewhere closer to us. We tried a few other restaurants but they just didn't live up to LD. Everything always tastes amazing, is hot and ready, good family sharing portions, and has an authentic quality about it. Nothing fusion based. We always order take-out since live far away, but even if you live close-by, they do not have indoor seating! I'm not 100% sure why but we can only assume that COVID probably changed this. We have no complaints and the restaurant seems to be doing just fine without dine-in!

    Beef chow fun
    Kevin W.

    Little Dragon gets a solid 4 out of 5 as it serves good Chinese American style take out. It's actually one of the better ones in the area if I'm not craving anything authentic Chinese. The beef chow fun is actually one of the best I've had in Denver and highly recommend. The portion is big and the beef is well seasoned. The noodles are soft but also firm as you would expect in really well made chow fun. I've ordered the same dishes at other places and found many of it bland or not seasoned enough, so this fish gets a 5 star! I've had their salt and pepper chicken, general tsos, and orange chicken and all to be good! Take out is quick and easy and is in my rotation whenever I order through door dash. This little dragon restaurant gets a recommendation in my book!

    Best Chinese food near Central Park! Huge portions with lots of flavor. Restaurant is take out and delivery only but provides very fast service. There are always people ordering in person and waiting outside. Their menu is sorted by popular items such as sesame chicken and lo mein. Our favorite is the drunken noodle with chicken.

    I've expressed my love for Chinese takeout numerous times over the years on Yelp. There's something about it that's extremely comforting, something that forces me to grin from ear to ear. I'm rarely not in the mood for it. Last week was not my first at Little Dragon, but my first time in quite some time. Strictly for proximity reasons, Little Dragon won't be my go-to spot. However, we have close friends who live a half mile away. And now that we're vaccinated and hosting gatherings again, it was a no brainer to place a big ol' pickup order when we hung out at our friend's place. The main positive characteristic of Little Dragon is that the food is always fresh, not oily and made with real ingredients. You can see it in their preparation and taste the difference. Really the only downfall with other Chinese takeout joints is that the food has been sitting around for a while, so they try to mask up the dish with oil and sauce. Not here thankfully! Placing an order over the phone is quick and painless. They usually throw in some hot and sour soup on the house, too. The employees are friendly and the food continually on point. Last week's BBQ Pork Lo Mein hit the spot. Same for the Crab Wontons, Veggie Spring Rolls and whatever else we ordered. I highly doubt anyone would have a bad experience here. You can tell the owners and staff really care about their clientele. Maybe I should move to E Colfax just so I can eat here more frequently!

    Update: got the opportunity to visit Little Dragon again and they did not let down with the Chicken Salt n Pepper. I really wish I got the Mongolian Beef again but I opted for some crab wontons and a side of fried rice. Fried rice was good but nothing amazing and the crab wontons weren't amazing but still very good (you get a lot of them which was a plus) but let's face it I went for the Salt n Pepper (: 10/10 right there. There was a friendly gentleman by the name of Chuck outside and asked if I could order him something so I told him to pick whatever he wanted off the menu. Chuck's go-to was the sweet n sour chicken with no veggies (but keep the pineapple). He said he likes veggies but more so when they are cooked longer and more soft instead of a crunch. Super nice man and shook my hand thanking me for the meal. Times are hard out there so always do what you can to help others if you can afford it. Stay safe out there Chuck! -Evan from Seattle

    Chicken in garlic sauce
    Anushka M.

    I can't recommend this place enough!! I'd grab takeout from here at least once a week because it's that delicious. I always order the chicken in garlic sauce and chicken lo mein. The employees who work there are so sweet and helpful. They really make ordering and picking it up very easy. Just call and place your order. Around 15-20 minutes later it'll be ready to pickup. The chicken in garlic sauce is probably the best dish I've had, and chicken lo mein is so delicious. Unfortunately I moved out of the state but I really think about this place often and have been on the hunt for something similar but haven't found anything yet. This place is a must!

    Ultimate Friday night takeout situation. Sesame chicken and tofu lettuce wraps.
    Taylor S.

    A friend gave me a bite of her sesame chicken when one night when we'd ordered takeout from two different places. I was hooked from the start! So meaty vs. covered in thick batter. The wraps are also tasty and my partner seemed to LOVE the dumplings. A few fave for sure!

    General Tsao's Chicken - huge portion and wonderfully made!

My typical go to is on of the salad. Now salads typically are not standout at most restaurants, but the ones at Kawa Ni just hits different. Both the red cabbage and pear salad and the brocolli salad are delicious and the portion is massive, easily enough for a table of 4 to share. For apps and shareable entrees, you can't go wrong here. The build your own tuna temaki hand rolls can easily be shared and the tuna is so fresh and well seasoned. The szechuan dumplings are delicious, as is the curry onigiri and the bao bun. The Dan Dan noodle, kimchi Carbonara, and their tonkotsu ramen are also amazing, and, with the exception of the tonkotsu ramen, can easily be shared. I would highly recommend other seasonal dishes as well, such as the coconut swordfish or chicken katsu parm. However, one of my absolute favorite dish here is the ochazuke. It's basically grilled fish over rice in a warm green tea dashi. It's so comforting, especially on a cold night, and a dish that I return to time and time again. Overall, Kawa Ni is an amazing japanese restaurant. Come for the food and just make sure you get a sake bomb and ask for the gong when you do.

    Cravings absolutely satisfied…read more We were in CO for the Rocky Mountain Siberian Husky Club specialty and I cannot go anywhere without having some sort of Asian food. That evening, I was craving pho. Pho 92 came recommended and I was immediately drawn to the clear broth in the photos while researching Yelp for Vietnamese food. It was a Thursday evening when we arrived at Pho 92, and the restaurant was packed. It was loud, with staff bustling about and patrons enjoying their meals. The aroma of the pho broth was just as I had hoped for a busy restaurant. We waited approximately 10 min for a table. The staff were pretty efficient and looked to have a good system going for bussing tables. Hailing from CA, I am no stranger to good pho, and this place hit the spot. I'm so glad I decided to get the regular instead of the large, because wow those portion sizes were indeed huge. My husband made the "mistake" of ordering the combination vermicelli bowl, and it came packed with tender proteins and crispy egg rolls. That just meant for some delicious leftovers (that actually reheated perfectly). The pho broth was as clear as I had imagined from looking at other patrons' photos. It still had a good depth of flavor, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had been a long travel day for us, so I didn't want oily soup. (Sometimes I do enjoy rich, oilier pho broth, but not that night.) The pho came with a plethora of herbs, which I of course used all of. Be warned that their chili oil is very spicy, which I accidentally put too much of without first trying (oops). I generally don't go to the same spot twice during a trip, as I enjoy trying out different local businesses, but Pho 92 would have been a spot I'd return to again if we had had the time and if I had wanted pho again. Their menu is huge, so there are plenty of dishes to choose from to satisfy your cravings, whatever those might be for any given day. We will definitely be back the next time we visit CO!
