Where to start! If you're looking for actual good Chinese food. This is the place!! They do have another location (which I have not been too) so I can only speak to this location. This is my family & I 2nd time here in Denver and after finding this place the 1st visit we make it a point to come to this location. We're located in Georgia so I think we have a good sense of good Chinese. I always get the Mongolian beef with fried rice (no egg; I'm allergic) My husband always gets the General Tso chicken with the fried rice and he ALWAYS orders this and never has a complaint. My son gets the Sesames chicken also with fried rice and it's sweet and crunchy as they fry the chicken to mix in their sauce and it's worth every penny. Every time! Service sometimes can be short in communication but expected especially when they're working all day and don't have time to eat but their food never misses! It's never crowded or busy when we come no matter the time of day, never noisy always sit at a booth. I highly recommend this place I will always come here when visiting Denv read more

I've had the pad Thai, orange chicken, sesame chicken and the lo mien all of which are delicious. I don't think you can go wrong here. I normally get take out and it's quick and easy. The place looks nice on the inside and they have a patio. read more

Wow. Let me start by saying that the hot and sour soup is hands down the BEST I've ever had. We also ordered a cup each and not a bowl, and it was a large cup!! Portion sizes are large here! We also ordered the cheese Rangoons and those were super yummy. No crabby flavor which I like :) For our entree, we got the general tso's chicken. It was yummy, crispy, and saucy! Service was fast and attentive. We were able to sit down right away even on a Saturday night. You have to try this place! I see why people love it :) read more

Pepper Asian Bistro is a Denver staple! I've been ordering take out from here for years, and I finally decided to dine in. The food was just as good, if not better dining in. The service was great, everyone was super friendly and attentive. We were seated and served very quickly. I was curious how portions would compare to take out, and they were just as big if not a little bigger. There's plenty of seating - the space is bigger than I expected. There's a bar area to sit at as well. There's a parking lot in the back. This place never disappoints. read more

Always have such an amazing time here. The food is always on point. The dishes are huge servings. Everything comes out hot and fresh tasting and very timely. The service is amazing and the people are so kind and helpful. Crystal and I both love coming here. It's near our neighborhood and we love walking here! We have also gotten take out and delivery and our favorite is to sit in and eat. We indulge in some cocktails at times but they also have plenty of NA options as well. The chicken fried rice is our favorite in town. Drunken noodles are always a classic here and any of the steak and veggie dishes. Honestly everything we can has always been really excellent here. And you can order different spice levels according to your preferences! read more

Pepper is always a must when we have guests visiting. This was my first time at this location and WOW I felt like it was such a fancy restaurant vs the Colfax location. I did not get the name of our sweet server but she was professional, knowledgeable and caring. The food is beyond!! I literally can taste the drunken noodles. The portions are huge so there is no doubt you can enjoy your leftovers the following day for lunch. What really amazed us was the foot traffic for takeaway meals. The entire bar was lined with takeaways the entire time we enjoyed our dinner. The mints at the counter are a must as well. Pepper never lets you down. read more

We were very impressed by our to go dishes! Everything was packaged nicely and was still hot by the time we got it home. We got the drunken noodles and General Tsos chicken. My husband got both medium, but the drunken noodles leaned more hot, and the Tsos chicken leaned more mild. My husband doesn't care for broccoli, so they did extra peppers and that was perfect. They did mention it is cheaper to order to go through them rather than grub hub, so something to keep in mind. Overall I was impressed and this will definitely be our new Chinese food go to. read more

Just ordered from here for take out and it was so good! We got orange beef (comes with veggies) with added fried rice, vegetable lo mein, and crab ragoons. For 2 people, we have more than enough for leftovers. Medium was a perfect spice level if you like for the spice to be evident but not overwhelming. Would love to go in person! read more

We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The hostess greeted us in the most friendly way, our server was super nice and attentive and the food was excellent.

10/10. We selected this restaurant based off of Yelp reviews once we landed in Denver for a family vacation. The service was very good. The ambiance was a casual seating environment. We ordered several dishes to share family style: hot and sour soup, Kung Pao chicken, Hunan chicken, and Spicy Chicken with Basil. All were wonderfully prepared and we finished every single dish! This was a great start to our trip in Denver. Especially with the cold temperatures, the food from Pepper Asian Bistro II was hearty and filling. read more

i LOVE pepper. i always have such a great experience here. i have ordered takeout here for years and have dined in a couple of times now. my friend and i popped in for lunch. parking lot + street parking. seated immediately. chicken dumplings in hot sauce are phenomenal. lunch specials came with a side, so i had sesame chicken + hot and sour soup + steamed rice. my friend had chicken & broccoli + fried rice + egg rolls. every single thing was fantastic! I've had many of their beef noodle dishes, beef and broccoli, sweet and sour chicken, lettuce wraps, cream cheese wontons, the list goes on. I've yet to be disappointed. they've got lots of seating and bar space. i imagine it gets busier on the weekends but for the most part, its been really chill and has quick service. i am a huge fan!!!! read more

Peppers Bistro II Tried the fried rice and chicken with broccoli, and both were delicious! The rice was flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and not greasy at all. The chicken and broccoli were fresh, tender, and cooked just right -- great texture and sauce. Quick service, generous portions, and everything came out hot and fresh. Definitely a solid spot for satisfying, well-made comfort food. I'll be back! read more

Kinda low key spot that turned out to be great! Open late, humble decor, and attentive service, the menu includes a wide variety of rice, noodle, and curry dishes. Initially I thought it would be mediocre quality but I ordered a very tasty drunken noodle was very decently priced with a large serving. I always rave about any spots that serve Thai with mango sticky rice, which was a fantastic end to the meal. Lovely spot for a Thai craving late at night read more

The food was great, the service was lovely overall - very nice staff. The ambiance left a bit to be desired. Still a good spot.

Continues to be one of my absolute favorite places to eat. Such flavorful dishes. Large quality while not compromising quality! Love that you can change the spice levels. Great cocktails too and always always always the best service! read more

Overall, a good spot to try with some really nice flavors. The standouts for us were the Drunken Noodles and the Spicy Chicken with Basil -- both were packed with flavor and had a great kick. The Basil Shrimp Fried Rice was also solid and satisfying. The Panang Curry was a bit of a letdown flavor-wise compared to the other dishes. Also, just a heads-up for vegetarians: the Vegetable Tofu Basil Fried Rice came with egg in it, so make sure to ask if you want it without. read more

Great food with fresh ingredients . The pot stickers and lo mein were some of the best I've had. I will definitely will order again.

Love this place the food is exceptional , staff courteous. I on delivery Never disappointed. read more

This place is so amazing. The staff is friendly and hard working for sure. I usually get take out and it's always delicious! I love the wontons, chicken fried rice and chicken w veggies + cashews. I come here once a month if not more! And I think their pricing is super reasonable for the quality and quantity you receive. Must go to spot !! read more

The food, service and ambiance are always good. The lunch specials are a great deal and the north location is very comfortable inside. The fried rice is soooooo good. read more

Had dinner with my lawyer and his friend. We picked this place because of its central location and the high Yelp review average. It is in an area of town that parking is usually a nightmare but they have their own off street parking lot that is quite spacious. So, parking wasn't an issue at all. The building is beautiful and I enjoyed the Japanese decor inside. The bar area is really attractive open space. The staff were exceptionally pleasant and accommodating. Drinks came fast and were never dry. The food options were great and the menu was expansive with many great choices. I opted for sesame shrimp and it was incredible. The shrimp were so large I had to cut them into thirds to eat them. The sauce they flavored the dish with was mouth watering. The entire meal and the meeting were fabulous. They have a really nice outdoor eating section I want to try next time. It was one hundred degrees outside and just too hot to enjoy meal away from air conditioning. The bill was extremely reasonable for four people with a few drinks involved. This place was great and I highly recommend it. read more

Fav Chinese take out always fast and nice portion sizes for the price you pay!! My go to for takeout

Hanging with Beth in Colorado! We like it here! Good portions!! The selection is great!

This used to be one of my favorite Chinese spots in Denver, but writing this review because the quality of the food has gone so downhill that I don't even want to order from here anymore. The last few times I've ordered, the chicken has been rubbery, the veggies in the lo mein have been cooked so much they're soggy, and the fried rice completely dried out. I don't know what happened but I'm really disappointed. read more

A little overhyped... more like a 3.5 not a 4.5. Service was fast and efficient. While busy, the food was ok. Portion sizes were generous even on the lunch menu. But the taste wasn't memorable. The edamame was far too salty, the basil beef was decent but the fried rice was a little too bland and was cooked with too much soy sauce. The egg rolls were solid on the other hand, but I wouldn't venture out here just for the egg rolls. There are a handful of other Asian restaurants at a similar price point in the Denver msa that I would defer to over this one. read more

Food was great. Big portions and the spice levels were on point. Good flavor for the rice and the middle dish. Service was quick and although they were very busy with take out orders, they managed to still be attentive to the customers inside the restaurant. Not my first time here, they have a nice dining room as well as a nice patio outside that you can sit at. Highly recommend for a quick dinner prior to an event or simply if you're looking for a good Asian food option. Will go back soon! read more

We were in town for a soccer tournament, staying at an Airbnb down the street. On our last night we ordered takeout from here. It was perfect and quick. We all enjoyed our meals and they give you plenty of food. Plus, it was ready quickly. read more

Had a late lunch here with my brother after taking a certification class together. This is probably my 3rd time here and the food still tastes great. The place is nice and the service was good. I had a small wonton soup to start. It is very delicious. The wonton was perfectly made and the broth was on par. My brother ordered the chicken pad se lew and I ordered the tofu drunken noodles for our entrees. We didn't wait long before our entrees came out. They look similar but they both tasted different and great. I'm glad I was in the neighborhood to come back and eat here again. read more

We've already eaten here twice back to back it's THAT GOOD! I'm obsessed with the Szechwan beef and my partner is equally in love with the general tzos chicken. We ordered takeout both times and the food was HOT! Also they have a great deal on delivery if you live nearby only $2 extra! read more

Never thought I would get a bug in my food from a place with such good reviews. Bought food for my whole family and found this right away and showed my whole family to confirm it was a bug which everyone agreed everyone threw out there meals because everyone was gross out. Waste of money n I don't want to eat here again due to me being disgusted that a bug was in my food would only be interested in a refund. read more

Ordered this for delivery one night while in Denver. Food was fresh, hot, and tasted great! We weren't sure how it would be since we aren't from the area, but it was a win. We would definitely order from here again when we are in the Denver area. We got the house special fries rice and house lo men. Would recommend! read more

Sesame chicken was flavorful, crunchy, soft and probably the best tasting I have had in a long time. We drove 45 minutes one way and back another 45 and it still tasted good. I am excited to try it in person! Great food and service! read more

I live nearby and enjoy the kitchens aroma off times when the wind is right. After several visits ordering the vegetable tempura, beef specialty dish and noodles... Just tell where it gets better ! Service is top tier to match, Thanks June! read more

Not gonna lie, the food exceeded our expectations. We originally were headed to a new restaurant next door and once we caught wind of the wait time, we said to ourselves, "Chinese food it is!" One person in our party had been here before and confirmed it was great. Now I LOVE me some Chinese food, but sometimes I get skeptical of these Asian fusion type of places with larger menus. All the items can't be good, right? Well, maybe here at Pepper they can? We started with some beers and apps. Specifically the Cheese Wontons ($7.50) and Potstickers ($8.25). Each of them come with 6 per order so it's definitely a good deal. I prefer when wontons have crab in them, so these were just okay for me. BUT THE POTSTICKERS GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY. These were divine. Meaty, tons of umami flavors from the sauce, and freshly prepared. Our table LOVED them. I was skimming through the menu with no direction. Lost without a cause. I had no idea what I wanted for my entrée. As I went back and forth for minutes (which felt like an eternity) I landed on my staple Chinese American dish, General Tso's Chicken. You can really never go wrong with it IMO. The dinner meal runs you $14.50 but the portions are massive. It was well sauced, sweet, sticky and spicy. Chicken was extremely tender and was accompanied by bell peppers and broccoli. I subbed for fried rice ($1 upcharge) and it's totally worth the George Washington in your wallet. And the leftovers the following day absolutely slapped. I can't believe I've driven by this place for years without ever popping in. Maybe we ordered it for takeout or delivery, but I can't remember. Staff was friendly and efficient, and not invasive. Overall a great spot with a large dining room and patio for seating. No complaints, just a food coma! read more

Pepper II IS AN INSTITUTION. It's rare. I feel so passionate about a restaurant food as well as their operation as a whole, but pepper is built different.
