Reckless Noodle House 800 Sherman Street, Denver, CO 80203

"We’ve been here several times 4-5x and it’s delicious and HH is a great value. I’m 1st gen Vietnamese from Houston and this place is legit. Denver (8 years here) is a sad city for authentic Asian food with maybe exception for sushi. My favorite thing here, and there is no place in town that has it and so unique, is the crispy Saigon caramelized shrimp. The shrimp is fresh and has that snap and plumpness that fresh shrimp should have. It is in a sticky sweet sauce and the shrimp is thinly breaded and so crisp that even the shell is potato chip tasty. I come here just for that with the lemongrass rice. There’s a special dish the chef sent to us one night which was grilled shrimp on sugarcane, classic south Vietnamese dish and labor intensive. So damn good. Not on regular menu. NOTE: If you don’t do even mild spice, you need to ask wait staff for Denver spicy which is ZERO spicy for the larb, papaya salad and anything that has chilis in it. Always ask!! Can add more spice after and their house chili sauce is fantastic!! Ambiance is great and Bryce and his team including the chef are wonderful!! Highly recommend and I’ll see you on Monday at their all day HH! Their original location is in Seattle. Explains the freshness of their seafood."

"4/5 simply because I didn’t like any part of my meal. I think this had much to do with my own taste pallet and preferences. My partner enjoyed his dish and his cocktail. It was a lovely atmosphere for a date night and the service was great."

"The most delicious noodle place that adds a new spin onto classic Vietnamese dishes like spring rolls!! We absolutely loved everything we ordered on the happy hour menu! The baby bok choy was unlike anything we've had! They were steamed (maybe?), soaked in so much juice, and with a nice spicy kick without it actually being too spicy. It left me wanting more! The Shanghai Wonton Rolls were a nice spin to the classic crab rangoons! We also had the carmalized pork rolls which was a nice marriage of fresh veggies and the pork! I had the Tamarid Udon Soup which was SO DELICIOUS. Even better as leftovers. I put in the leftover baby bok choy which was such a nice touch! They should definitely add some baby bok choy to the Tamarid Udon Soup! I had a little bit of my husband's rock fish dish and it was cooked to absolute perfection. We ended the meal with the Vietnamese coffee crème brûlée, which left me tell you, as a woman of Vietnamese descent, is seriously the BEST crème brûlée I've ever had. I never expected Vietnamese coffee to be in crème brûlée!! As a coffee lover, this was quite unexpected. I cannot wait to return here!"

"Officially my new favorite Monday night spot! Such a beautiful restaurant with wonderful service! This place definitely doesn't disappoint. We had a couple dishes, drinks and dessert and it was still pretty affordable! Will be my go to spot this winter."

"This place is 10+ stars. Visited from Miami and came back here twice during my stay. Food is A+, atmosphere is super chill with good music. Solid decor and my favorite spot in Denver. Best happy hour by far as well."
