    The pho was really good. Not too sweet, clear and flavorful. I also got their juice box cocktail, Chrysanthemum tea and gin. It was really creative and tasty. The servers were polite and quick despite being busy. Space is a bit cramped but overall worth.

    Pho (Traditional + House mix)
    Jami W.

    Came here for a solo lunch mid week in September. They weren't too busy when I walked in and had the choice of sitting anywhere. I selected to sit inside at the booth. The menu isn't too extensive which is nice because everything sounded so good-- made it just a little easier to settle on something. I went with the Pho white meat chicken and mixed the traditional & house broth. Pho was phenomenal-- I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back.

    Combo meat pho half  and half broth..PERFECT

    So we came back with a big group and we were able to try the curry pho, short rib pho and duck pho, holy moley YUM. All if them were good but I loved the curry pho, so different and the flavors worked!! The lemongrass chicken dumplings are fried ever so lightly, soor no pic the were so food we ate them up before I could. The service was amazing per usual. The espresso martinis are $10 and boozy..This is our favorite pho spot now!! Yay

    Our go to Viet spot in/near downtown. Their house special pho is like a combination of bun bo hue plus pho broth! We get this every time. The prices are great as well as you'd expect a place like this to cater to higher income individuals given the location and demographics. It's a hip, trendy, and modern looking restaurant. Their to gos even come in a very cool looking recycle bag. I love the fusion appetizers. The pho roll is def a must! They don't skimp out on the elote either.

    Literally my husband and I just got to Denver and we're craving some pho! WOW!! This place is all the feels! The music was a vibe, servers were kind and helpful. We got a bowl of pho with beef meatballs and a lemongrass beef banh mi! The portions are huge!!! Also free 2 hour street parking. What a great find when visiting Denver!!! A must to visit!!!!

    Went to this joint between visiting the museum of science and nature and the Denver zoo. Food: - ordered the combination traditional pho for $15 - soup wasn't very hot - brisket was chewy and did not taste fresh but the meatball and rare steak were fresh and delicious - noodles were cooked to perfection - basil, jalapeño and lime were fresh but the bean sprout were large and browning Ambience: - definitely feels geared to the younger/working population - very modern - creative drinks and creative decor - trendy music was playing even in the bathroom Service: - freaking amazing - I have never been to a pho place where they were so willing to split the bowl for you (and it was literally buying 2 bowls for the price of 1... thank you!!) and so willing to customize to your liking (such as I didn't want any of the meat so all the meat was placed in the other bowl) - taking out...they were so willing to separate the noodles from the soup too!! Parking and location: - you see a lot of folks walking around - not much to do - parking is mainly street parking but it isn't difficult as you can find free parallel parking in the neighborhood without signs (apologies to those that live in the area!) Thank you Pho & Bar for making my day and for such an amazing experience!

    Yummy! I've been wanting to try this place as it's only a mile away from our house. I was first blown away by this tote bag that is reusable. What a beauty! My hubby is sick so wanted to order him some comfort food. This place did not disappoint! He is loving the broth and the rare steak pho. I got the grilled chicken pho, what a burst of flavors in my mouth. It also is very filling, I can normally eat my pho in one setting but with this one, I have left overs and also more broth. I can't wait to go see this place inside, whoever is on their design team and marketing, deserves a raise. Amazing job everyone! :)

    pho & bar has a really cool bar and cute outdoor seating area. this is a great place for late lunch or dinner. i really enjoyed my vegan pho. i thought the flavors were just right. also, free refills on soda! my waitress was great as well.

    Combination House Pho
    Stefanie C.

    I've been wanting to come here for a while, but it's always busy! I finally met up with friends here one Saturday afternoon for lunch, and we all had to park several blocks away. Just be prepared to wait at least an hour. Service was fast, but it's a little chaotic. We were seated at the bar, and I loved the fusion between Asian restaurant and sports bar vibes. I ordered the Combination House Pho which was DELICIOUS! Plenty of noodles and meat, and the thought of the broth makes my mouth water. I did throw a wrench into my own plan by asking for Vietnamese Coffee to-go. It was totally forgotten about until I managed to flag someone down, who then personally prepared my coffee. Totally coming back again!

    Pho rolls were bomb.com!
    Kevin W.

    What a great spot that I can add to my list before I have a concert at the nearby venues (Fillmore and Ogden). This is a more Vietnamese fusion serving great rolls and drinks! Atmosphere is definitely more upscale and hip, you won't expect authentic pho (which I recommend actually going to more authentic places like Pho Saigon, or any of the great hole in the wall places on Federal). House Pho is almost like a Bun Bo Hue but meant for people are not used to spices and the other offerings you typically get. Broth is fairly light, I had to add a decent amount of hoisin and Sriracha to bring up the flavor profile. It's cheap but compared to other places in Denver, you get less here. Toppings are in the light side. The beef pho rolls were a hit! The fish sauce based sauce was amazing and all of the flavors blended well. It was definitely a flavor bomb! Crunch garlic and shallot bits as well as fresh herbs really elevate this dish. You won't expect the best Vietnamese food here, but for a fusion it does it good. I would highly recommend their apps, but pass on the pho.

    Great pho even for vegans! Full service bar delicious hot pho and a convenient location!

    Vietnamese pork egg rolls
    Annette T.

    Great modern Vietnamese restaurant. I came with my partner for a date night and we split the pork egg rolls and the bowl of House Pho with brisket. I really appreciated that they split the bowl up into 2 smaller bowls for us to share. The House Pho tasted like a fusion of pho and bun bo hue to me, which is another traditional Viet noodle soup. I really liked it and would recommend it if you like something a little more savory and spicy! The egg rolls were good although I wish they included 4 instead of 3. They had some cocktails on the menu too but I didn't feel like drinking. Next time!

    Tyler N.

    Pho & Bar is one of my go-to's with it being a close walk from me. It's a modern Vietnamese restaurant with great cocktails. It's small so it fills up fast, but I haven't had to wait long for a table. To start, the buffalo wings are very good, perfectly tangy with a kick. The chicken is cooked well with a slight crunch to them. Absolutely love their house pho. It is basically a Bun Bo Hue broth with pho noodles and toppings. This means it's spicy with a touch of lemongrass. It is perfectly savory and healing. Their traditional is also a good broth. Perfect for a lazy day or a day where you might need a hangover cure. And if you need hair of the dog, they have great cocktails. My all-time favorite is the Lychee Mule. So delicious and refreshing. If you're up for a challenge, they have the mega mule which can be shared with 3 other people or 2 if you're feeling ambitious. Another good one is the spicy thai bloody mary which was seasonal so isn't available any more. Pho & Bar has some of the best pho in the Denver Metro area, and I can't recommend them enough.

They use a good quality fish sauce and they spice it up perfectly. My husband said his food was equally pleasing. We both ordered Vietnamese iced coffee, which comes as a table side service. We patiently waited for the coffee to drip into the condensed milk, then mixed it up and poured it over the tall glass of ice provided.

I love that their menu has your run of the mill options but they have a specials page with harder to find Vietnamese options, like banh xeo or banh canh cua. They do NOT have banh cuon though, just fyi. I read other reviews saying the banh canh cua and bun bo hue are really good here, and lemme tell you. The yelpers did not disappoint! Everything in the canh cua is hella good, especially the broth. All I added was lime, veggies, and a little chili oil. Perfection! I couldn't finish the bowl since we ordered a bunch of other stuff but canh cua keeps well so even heated up the next day, the noodles and everything were intact and yummy. It does come with blood cubes but if you aren't a fan, like myself, you can ask them to take it out. They have several BBH meat options but my BF went with the King bowl which has everything in it. We didn't realize that it comes with a giant beef bone on the side. Considering we ordered two of these for our 4 person table, our table was packed AF lol The BBH has a good flavor and depth, not that spicy, and if you like a lot of meat variety, this is the one for you. We also ordered spring rolls, eggrolls, banh it ram, and banh beo for the table. The banh it ram and banh beo were sooooooo freakin good. They stuff the chewy part of the banh it ram with a yummy pork filling, and the crunch on the bottom was such a good contrast to the chewiness of the mochi like top. I've had this dish a few times before but I have to say, O Lien does it best. You really have to dunk these things in the nuoc mam (sweet fish) otherwise it will taste a little plain. The banh beo were some of the best I've had. They really load these babies up with toppings, which I appreciate because some places are so stingy with the chicharrones and shrimp dust - thats the orange stuff on top. These were also a highlight for me, I love the sweet savory flavor, and the chewiness of the banh beo. This is another thing you kinda have to drown in nuoc ma for flavor and they're pretty big so kudos to you if you can one bite this. For me, I found it a little more appetizing to cut in half and scoop up with my spoon. The egg rolls were good, nothing crazy. Just a nice solid egg roll. I didn't try the spring rolls but my cousin said the sauce it came with didn't have a peanutty taste. It said it tasted more like soy sauce than anything.. so for him, he would pass. We popped in on a Sunday night at 7, and they had a whole waitlist with people waiting inside and outside. We were lucky and only had to wait about 15 minutes. They claim they close at 8 but they def had people seated past that. They're super busy and for good reason. The food is bomb! They're in a small plaza with a tiny lot, so you might catch a spot if you're lucky otherwise you'll have to find street parking, which shouldn't be too bad. The inside is fairly spacious, so they do get people moving in and our fairly quickly.

    O Lien Kitchen was packed during lunch on a Saturday. Not only was the parking lot full, but there…read morewas a bit of wait as well. Nonetheless, we added our name to the waitlist and was grateful there were only a couple of parties before us. We knew we wanted some of the Bahn Hue Plates but also didn't want too many of the same thing. The waiter offered some substitute options that worked for us. These "cakes" are still a rarity for us as they aren't found everywhere. * BH8. Sampler with substitutes $14.99 - Ours came with the 4 Loc La, 2 Nam, and 4 It Co Ram (instead of the 12 Beo and 3 It Tran). I actually think the waiter said he would sub the 12 Beo for the It Co Ram. I realize now we did not get any of the It Tran, which is a bit of a bummer. * BH1. Bahn Beo Chen $13.99 - We usually try to order this whenever we see it on the menu. * A5. Vietnamese Eggrolls Cha Gio $7.99 - Their deep-fried egg rolls were exactly how we wanted - with that extra blistery look to it. Not all Vietnamese restaurants serve it this way, so we do try to order it when we see it offered. * HS1. Sizzling Steak & Eggs $18.99 - We did ask for more bread to soak up the proteins on this dish. I'm not sure what happened because the bread took ridiculously long, and the restaurant had cleared up quite a bit by then. Most of our orders came out rather quickly, so it was weird with the long wait for the extra bread. I honestly think they forgot, and when someone finally remembered, it was put into the toaster to heat up then because it did arrive very hot versus the initial order. We had to get up and ask about it and two different waiters said it was coming out. Their house made chili oil definitely had a kick to it! Use it sparingly if it's your first go at it. We were curious about their Bun Bo Hue because there are so many options. The waiter did tell us it's their most popular dish and the pictures looked amazing. Overall, we had a good experience at O Lien Kitchen. The long wait for the bread did put a downer on the visit as it dragged on and the steak and eggs got cold as we waited. I initially wanted dessert but changed my mind since we were waiting so long. 3.5 stars
