Phở-natic Vietnamese Restaurant

This pho joint is across from the Capitol Building. I thought I would see more customers inside, but there was no one when I entered. That did not give me a good feeling, but later more parties showed up. I also saw people coming in and out for take-out. We were served by a middle-aged man. He handled all the bussing and was very courteous. He didn't talk much but did ask us how we were doing about halfway. The menu is pretty standard of a pho/Viet restaurant. I overheard someone ask for morning glory, but I thought that was Thai.. I tried the pho dac biet, which was pretty good. The com tam was sus to me. I got C1 heo nuong grilled pork, but it was red!?! The texture was also weird. The plate came with three slabs of pork sliced into thin strips. The dining area seems like a good size,

The vibe here is fantastic. The pho was hands down the best I’ve had in a while, the server was very kind and hospitable. I gotta give him a special shout out cause he’s pretty much doing everything himself but he does it with a grace and warmth you don’t find in most places. The atmosphere was also great—everyone was chatting, just enjoying the good food. Definitely recommend checking them out!!

Honestly my favorite phó in Denver. Always super fresh basil, , lime, and sprouts. Flavorful broth, tender meats, and even the tendon is super tender not chewy like some places... If you enjoy phó check this place out. Definitely the best downtown hands down. Used to be the one on 16th Street but that one is absolutely awful now. Ten out of ten. And definitely try the soft shell crab appetizer 🦀!!!

This is an amazing hidden gem. It’s family run with delicious food. The phò is very authentic and super delicious. The noodle bowls are a personal favorite. Beware the Thai iced tea, I refer to it as rocket fuel. It’s tasty but very caffeinated. The one negative is there is only metered street parking available. At this time, Colfax near the capitol is a cluster. Be prepared.

This isn't just the best pho I've had in Denver. It's the best I've ever had in my entire life! Somehow they have the PERFECT mix of sweet, sour, savory, salty, spicy, and super umami. They don't skimp on the meat or the toppings. If it was 8x the price, it would still be a bargain, so I'm in shock at how affordable it was.
