    Love this place to death, just wish they had more Banh Mi options

    Spring rolls, beef chow fun, grilled shrimp, and seafood special were all excellent! Atmosphere and wait staff were equally accommodating.

    I've been coming here for the better part of a year and have been meaning to write a review for sometime now. To start off this place easily deserves 5 stars, not only because the food but also the service. The food is easily the best Vietnamese food in the area, and that's for both the soups/stews and the extensive entree items. While the Pho is absolutely delicious I gravitate to the more exciting dishes and I've yet to be let down. The Five Spice Duck, the Beef Stew, and the Mi Quang are my top 3 soups. The egg rolls are literally the best I've ever had and I always start with those. The service is amazing, super friendly and always welcoming. I can't wait to go back.

    I am oh so veryyy confused at how this place has 4.5 stars on Yelp. I'm not from the area, so I chose this place based on Yelp reviews. I probably should have looked at the pictures beforehand, but I was in a rush to find a place to eat. I ordered a rice platter- grilled pork with egg and a spring roll. My friends ordered something similar, rice platter and noodle bowl (vermicelli). We were amazed at the TINY portions of meat. None of us are from the area, so we wondered if it was just like this at all Vietnamese restaurants here. We're from Dallas and none of the pho restaurants give you such little meat portions. As you can see in the photos from other reviewers, the meat is sliced super thin and they literally give you like 10 pieces. The plate is mostly rice/noodle. If this is what you guys are used to in the Denver area, you are seriously missing out. You HAVE to try a Vietnamese restaurant if you ever come to Dallas or Houston or Austin. I have been to a lot and this is by far the worst place I've been to. The quality of the food was mediocre at best. Even the peanut sauce for the spring roll was just so-so. I also ordered a MILK tea. The server brought me a THAI tea. I thought maybe he just misheard my order, so I told him I had ordered the milk tea. He said "yea this is milk tea." I told him it looks like thai tea (orange). His response was "yea milk tea, thai tea same thing." WHAT? They are most definitely not the same, and if he mistakenly thought they were, why list both on the menu? This is one of the very few times Yelp has let me down.

    A friend and I came here to catch up. Both of us were super hungry and the menu is extensive. At a certain point on the hunger scale everything and nothing sounds good. It took us longer than it should have, almost to the point of embarrassment to select something. The staff was very nice even if they thought we were insane- not like it was our last meal on earth. We shared the spring rolls and the crepe. The peanut sauce for the rolls was not good. It almost had a floral quality to it and we passed on second bites with it. The crepe was good too but definitely not filled with meat in any way. The fried shrimp paste noodle bowl was super tasty. I added what appeared to be house made chili sauce and it took it to a nice heat. Mixing the noodles, shrimp paste, lettuce and cucumber gave the dish nicely rounded flavors. My friends ordered a pho and seemed to enjoy it. Overall we had a lovely time and I'd come back.

    Huge Pho fans and were in the area and chose Golden based on fellow Yelper reviews. Have to say the food was good, but not extraordinary. The service was lacking as well, had the kids with and didn't feel very welcomed. The atmosphere was not very comforting, my son was pursuing the fairly extensive menu and felt we were burdening the server by not being ready to order right away. Only saw the server at our table to deliver food, and again at the end ready for bill and had to ask for more water. The bill (prices in general) was a little more than I expected also. The Pho was good, but lacking in flavor in my opinion even with the added basil and jalapeños. The spring rolls had a very strong minty flavor which was overpowering any other flavors, and the noodle bowls seemed more like dishes from a quick service Chinese take out. Bottom Line: food is ok, but I will choose another of the many options near by next time.

    Soooooo good. The broth is absolutely delicious... I finished the entire medium bowl by myself. I didn't want it to end.

    Had the Bun Bo Hue and highly recommend it! As good as my mom's home cooking. Thanks Golden Bowl Noodle House! I'll be back when I'm in the area again.

  • Holly C.

    I loved this place! They had this make your own spring roll appetizer which was amazing and fun. They gave us dried rice paper and we dipped it in water and filled it up with all sorts of goodies! It probably wouldn't work as a to go item, but definitely great and fun if you are dining in. Service was fast, friendly and efficient. They were accommodating with my daughter, although they didn't have a kids' menu per se. I am definitely looking forward to another visit!

  • Steven W.

    The broth for the pho was not very flavorful and the sauce for the spring rolls was disappointing. But, very friendly, helpful staff. May have just caught them on a bad day. Certainly enjoyed the food at the other restaurant in the complex more my last visit to town.

    Best noodle bowl in the area. Otherwise, you'll need to drive to Federal

    I've been here several times and everytime I'm in Broomfield I get the craving for Golden Bowls Bun Bo hue. I always come back because their broth are so clean and flavorful. This time my bf and I got the bun Bo hue and the #7 five spice duck soup. I asked for no blood cakes on the bun Bo hue since I don't like the thought of eating them. It comes with thick round rice noodles, fish cake, and some other types of pork and beef. You can adjust how spicy you like the broth since they leave the spices in one spot. The portion is pretty large too since I had to take half of mine home. The five spice duck soup is very comforting to eat. It's a clear bone broth (duck bone?) with egg noodles, a bit of pork skins, and leafy vegetables. I like how they served the crispy duck on the side so that the skin doesn't get soggy. Honestly, I could drink the broth all day. The 5 stars is for the food. Service is quick and friendly but if you have some complicated question, expect to rephrase your question a few more times. I would come back any day for their soups. I have yet to try their other dishes.

    Tried the lunch special. A small bowl of pho and two egg-rolls. A great deal on a great meal. The service was friendly and attentive. Next time I will explore some items that I am not familiar with as their menu is extensive.

  • Anna B.

    The food was great, extremely fresh and prepare well. The service was wonderful. The woman was sweet, kind and very attentive. She gave good suggestions for meat lovers and vegetarians. She was more than happy to make spring rolls to my friend's liking. I will definitely come here again.

  • Siena R.

    The boyfriend and I are regulars at this place. We try to visit as much as we can, being poor college students. The people that run this place are wonderful and value your loyalty. The older woman in charge always remembers us and makes sure we're well taken care of. She even knows I use chopsticks and he uses a fork and sets the table that way. It's clear who keeps the place running so well; she runs a tight ship and we've never had a problem. We absolutely love the cream cheese wontons. They're so rich they're probably Paula Dean approved, but dear God they're so delicious. Add some bubble tea for more delicious unhealthy. Being a fat kid never felt so good. As for the food, I usually get noodle bowls and my boyfriend likes fried rice and their meat dishes. It's always a generous portion that comes out quick, warm, and tasty. Definitely come by, you won't be disappointed!

  • Chelsea K.

    Yum!! FI and I stopped by here a week ago while he was fighting a cold and all he wanted was pho. The pho and spring rolls were delicious. I thought my brisket was a little chewier than I'd like but the rest was really good.

  • Drew Y.

    When ever I go to Golden Bowl, it becomes the highlight of my day! I love this place, the food is delicious, properly portioned, well seasoned, and serve quickly. The staff is very friendly and is always willing to answer questions and they are willing to ask questions to make sure the order you receive is the order you want. The Vietnamese female owner, the one who is normally behind the counter, always remember me and it that does make the experience better. Normally I order the Chicken Roti, a half chicken friend over a bed of friend rice with it's sauce, it's amazing and I recommended to everyone to comes here. When I'm not in the mood for rice, I order the pho, which is a good flavorful broth.

  • Vic M.

    Great place. I like the fact that they have Combo choices. I usually get Pho Tai, Viet Egg rolls and a drink for a great price. The broth is always good and the servers are always nice and on top of it.

  • Sallie K.

    One of the worst bowls of pho I have ever had. Broth lacked depth of flavor. Had to douse it with Sriracha and hoisin to make it edible. Disappointing.

  • Lois B.

    I love pho, but I don't have a regular 'go-to' place so I'm always trying new restaurants. After reading the reviews, I decided to try the Golden Bowl Noodle house. I was lucky to find a table because the entire place was packed. I really like their lunch menu. They have a value deal with an appetizer, drink, and a small bowl of any pho on the menu for like $9. How can you beat that deal?? The service was also super fast so it's great for those that have limited time for lunch.

    This isn't a review for their pho. I came with my dad on a rainy summer day for the Mi Quang. I had never tried it before this time and I thought it was a pretty delightful treat. I love how the noodles were cooked with tumeric giving them a yellow tint. The broth is super flavorful because they give you very little. You don't need very much! The only thing I didn't like is the skin was left on the pork so I had to eat around it, but I also know that when they are making the broth, this makes the broth more rich, so if they had taken the skin off, the broth wouldn't have been as delicious. It's a trade off that I can deal with. We also tried the Banh Xeo, a pancake type dish with lots of mung bean sprouts inside. This was really good! I loved how crispy the outside was and the warm sprouts gave another nice texture. I would order it again. Their Vietnamese egg rolls were delicious also and they gave plenty of dipping sauce (I hate it when places only give you a teeny thing) but this was a fairly large bowl. My dad tried a rice plate with BBQ pork and some other various things. He didn't like his as much, but I think some things like the fish cake aren't for people with more "western" taste. But his pork was very good and the rice was more like fried rice instead of steamed rice. PS: Reviewer, R T., from July 2013 mentioned that the "Asian" customers received plastic cups and the "white" customers received glass. Our table received glass and I am a mixed race human and my dad is Chinese-American. Also, I recall there were was a table with a Caucasian family that had plastic cups. I don't think that people would care enough to discriminate in the form of beverage containers.

    The best pho in the area!! I love this place. The broth is so rich and flavorful, they always make sure you get more than enough for take out orders too. Also, the lady working there is so sweet and adorable.

  • Wendy H.

    This place was excellent. Since moving to colorado I have consumed so much Phö its crazy! This place was clean and very very cheap. Their broth was delicious and exactly right. I tried the combination bowl and it was just the right amount of meat and broth. Our server made sure our glasses were never empty and was very attentive. If you are looking for a new phö place come check this one out.

  • Peter H.

    This is the best pho in the Westminster area. The pho is pretty good but what makes it unique are the other special dishes. The broiled chicken and rice is especially delicious and tender. The interior tables need a bit of work because it kind of looks like a cafeteria, but if you can overlook this, you'll have a good experience!

    I only had the banh xeo and it was delicious! I would come back just for that. My guests had pho, some egg noodles, and spring rolls and they said it was pretty tasty.

  • Jam K.

    Don't judge this place by its cover. It doesn't look like much from the outside and without Yelp I probably wouldn't have tried it. My taste buds and I are so glad we did. My wife ordered the pho and loved it. I got the chicken fried rice and egg roles and can't stop dreaming about their delicious goodness. I got three meals out of it and it's great as leftovers as well. Here is where your search for excellent Asian food ends. You're welcome.

    This gem is easy to miss, tucked away in a strip mall surrounded by at least half a dozen other pho places. I always start my review of a restaurant in the bathroom, you can learn a lot just from inspecting the bathroom. Bathroom nothing special a toilet and a sink, but they were clean and that is what counts. Soap and towels stocked which indicates the staff probably wash their hands. Seating, there are ample choices inside for seating, tables and booths. We were promptly seated and offered a highchair for our two year old. Ordering was simple they have a wide selection of appetizers and entrees. Most pho places have large menus, but most items are only slight variations on the same thing. Golden Bown Noodle House has much more than just pho. We ordered the fresh spring rolls and cheese stuffed won-tons for our appetizers both were very good, the spring rolls had both shrimp and pork in them and had a delightful minty basil aroma. The entrees we had were the pho tai (broth and rare steak) and my wife had the special Vietnamese noodle bowl which came with sauteed pork, chicken and shrimp. The flavors for both were phenomenal, best and freshest taste in North Denver. I love pho for the spectrum of fresh, flavors and aromas and Golden Bowl Noodle House delivered on both accounts. The service was fast and friendly, we were among the first to arrive for the dinner service, but even as the place became more busy the server had no trouble keeping up. We left our first dining experience at Golden Bowl Noodle House both satisfied with intentions of returning again soon.

    One of my favorite restaurants near home. My boyfriend and I frequent this place pretty awesome. They have a crazy giant menu of Vietnamese cuisine, and we haven't had anything bad yet. Honestly, I think the pho at Pho 79 (in the same shopping center) is a little better, but it's also pricier and there are fewer menu options in general over there. Pho is solid -- I always get the meatball and rare steak and enjoy it every time. Variety and prices here can't be beat. The woman who runs the place is super friendly and will remember you even if you've only been in once. Definitely recommended!

    Great customer service. Food was just average, I got the beef rice plate and it was delicious but very dry. I also had the egg drop soup and it was delicious as well...but nothing special. If you need a quick meal then this place will not ruin your day.

    We keep coming back and trying new things. Haven't had a bad dish or a bad experience. I really enjoy the pho, noodle bowls, and Vietnamese egg rolls. This is a staple in our restaurant meal experience.

  • julie n.

    We had the platter where you roll your own spring rolls and it was good. The hot water comes out in this cool container that makes the rice paper easy to work with. Fancy. We also had the bo kho with banh mi and it was very good. Fresh bread and the meat was the same fatty one that my mom uses.

    As someone who is Vietnamese, my expectations of good Vietnamese food is quite high. Golden Bowl has a varied menu and offers a lot of Vietnamese staples from noodle bowls (bun), rice bowls and the typical pho dish. They also offer more selection of Vietnamese appetizers compared to the other pho houses in the area. One really cool thing that they offer is dinner combinations: a bowl of beef pho, eggrolls (or springrolls) and a drink for under $9.00. This is a STEAL for as much food as you get. The food is good, though I'll have to say food quality at Pho Duy is higher. But the price is much more affordable, the service is incredibly attentive and the place itself is spacious and very clean. I will return to try a different dish but would recommend this place for a reasonable Vietnamese option (if uncertain, try the combination option) with great service.

    My favorite Vietnamese joint in the area. I usually get com ga roti and my wife gets the mi quang. Have a great selection on there menu and everything I've tried is great so far!

    Unassuming place in a strip mall but with great food. I went with the mi quang and it was really good. Shrimp and pork belly in a spicy broth with turmeric noodles and lettuce. I would order again.

  • Michelle P.

    I am glad my fellow Yelpers recommended this place. It deserves the high rating. I am all about authentic food and this place is it. If you are not sure, you can tell by the other Vietnamese diners in the house. I ordered the Pho which is good although Pho isn't hard to mess up. The prices are better then the Pho places I go downtown. Their Vietnamese egg rolls are something I now crave. The service is good as well but make sure you understand Vietnamese food because if you have a lot of questions, you might not get a server who doesn't understand you. I am delighted we have an authentic Vietnamese place up North.

  • Jason T.

    Was lucky enough to find this gem via yelp reviews. The food here was extremely good. Tried several dishes and everything was spot on with great flavors and high quality ingredients. I will definitely be stopping by next time I am in the area. Their pho is some of the best I have ever had, although anything with noodles here is truly excellent. Highly recommend trying this place out if you are in the area or have not had it before.

  • Jim M.

    Golden Bowl is my go-to place for non-pho Vietnamese food. I like a couple of other places for pho, but the other dishes here are great. Standouts for me include the chicken wing appetizers, chicken ga roti, and the stir fried beef cubes. I've had several other dishes, and they were all good. My wife also likes the vegetarian selections. The prices are very reasonable, and the service is great. We've been here so many times, the owners know us and graciously recommend new things to try ... that's how I learned about the chicken ga roti and beef cubes. The ambiance is relaxed, and there are plenty of tables. A note about their pho: it's good, but as I wrote above, there are a couple of other places, like Pho Bay, that I feel have pho more to my liking.

    Don't get me wrong...the food is good... the service... is meh. I was once a loyal customer. I have always order the same food, egg noodles with pork with soup on the side. And there is a lady waitress who always helped me and she knows exactly how I wanted it. Yesterday, I ordered food to go. A male server was helping me as she was busy. I ordered my food and left do some errands. After about 15 min or so, I came back for my order. As I approached the counter to pay my order, the male server asked, "Where is your paperwork?" I am not sure if he was asking me or if he is just talking to himself. I said "I don't know" ( Am I suppose to know?) Then he was talking to the lady server in language other than English, and with his gesture, he asked the credit card from my hand. I was confused because I didn't know how much to pay? Then he said "$9..." I usually looked at the receipt details so see how much the food cost, tax, etc. I thought this time I just let it go as I was tired and hungry. Then he ran my credit card and I signed the receipt that came out from the credit card machine. I didn't tip him because I only tip dine it orders. And then I asked for a receipt. He then get very rude to me. He said "It's too late... why you did you ask earlier...?". I was annoyed and I told him " I am not happy..." and he said " Whaat...? You want receipt? and then he gave me a blank piece of paper and hand wrote $9" Then the lady waitress came rushing to help me. She printed a receipt for me from the credit card machine with details on it. I now have to think twice to eat there... I wonder is restaurant business is so bad that tips are expected even for to go orders? I read tips are for dine in. May be next time I should go to Noodles... BTW, the noodle is missing a sauce...

    Tasty noodle bowel but the service is what gives them the 4th star. First rate service anytime of the day and I always feel better when I leave then when entering. Try the combo noodle bowel. your in for a treat.

  • Anna P.

    The is mine and my boyfriend's pho place of choice of the fifty or so that are all located in this exact same plaza. Usually I order it for pick-up, but when we stay here and eat, it's a fairly calm and nice atmosphere! Also, the bowls are massive! The large bowl could feed two of me.

    (5)
  • Privat E.

    I love this place for certain things. I love the duck noodle soup as well as the chicken leg in special sauce (F06 in the menu, I think). Seriously, this chicken dish is just consistently awesome. I have ordered it countless times. Highly recommended. I've had some of their other dishes as well but these 2 were the stand outs. Now for the bad. Their Pho is bad. You are better off walking to Pho Duy or Pho 79 for good Pho. The more purest Pho eater would probably go to Pho 79 but I like both. Their Bo Kho was fine/mediocre but not awful. I've had better ones but it's acceptable just not anything to write home about. With Golden Bowl, you just gotta know what good and what's not. I keep coming back for the stellar dishes and know to never order the ones that are not good.

    This place is soo good!!! Love the egg rolls, they are the best in town- hands down! Also the pho is good, hot, fresh, and consistently tasty! Service is always excellent... people aren't wrong about this place, this is one of the best places to get pho in the city- and trust me, I've tried a lot of pho places! Highly recommend this place!

  • Jason L.

    I am not sure what it is about the corner of 120th and Main St, but in my opinion, some of the best pho in Colorado resides at 3 locations in the strip mall on the south east corner. It's a wonder as to why I even tried Golden Bowl as I always have a hard time choosing between the other two noodle joints that share the same address. I am so glad I did, though. This may be my new favorite. If pho isn't your thing, make sure to try #1 rice combo. I can't recall everything that was included, but I really enjoyed the vietnamese egg rolls, steamed egg cake and grilled shrimp.

  • Jennifer R.

    Every time we go, it gets better. Since my last review, we have gone back several times. While Pho will always be my one true love, I have yet to try anything that doesnt make my heart melt! The Bo Kho Banh Mi stew is simply divine. The sweet and savory broth is rich and dense. The meat was tender and the veggies were hearty, but what really sold it was the bread. Such a simple thing, but sopping up the broth in the soft bread and feeling it squish out across my palette with every bite was wonderful! On the recommendation of other Yelpers, I tried the Mi Quang. Excellent! It wasnt really what I *wanted* but it did not disappoint. I loved the fatty pork and the Mi noodles were lovely. I would absolutely recommend it! It has so much going for it! Next time, though, I will probably try another one of their Mi dishes. Time to go exploring! The Banh Xeo crepes were a pleasant surprise. I had never had it before and was SHOCKED by how big it was. A huge plate! A pile of lettuce, mint, and cucumbers! And a giant crepe stuffed with pork and bean sprouts! So so so so so good! And the people there are so friendly. The nice lady who remembered us (and our order) on the second visit has been so sweet and so kind every time we have gone back. I just want to hug her!

    I've eaten here 4 times already and each time we have been pleased with the food and the service. My wife and I do Pho, beef and meatball is my favorite and Dawn likes the rare steak. It looks to be family owned and operated and we like to support local businesses. The apps are great try the fried shrimp or vietnamese crepes. The combo deal on the Pho is an excellent value and includes spring rolls. If you like vietnamese food and Pho this is a great place to visit!

  • Graham S.

    This review is simply for service and Bun Dac Biet (Combination Bowl) as part of an ongoing list. I'm sure the rest of their menu is delicious, and one day I'll work through it but for now all of my visits have been for one dish. Bun Dac Biet is one of my favorite dishes in the summer. When its hot out Pho no longer appeals to me, and yet there is a worthy replacement ready at most Vietnamese restaurants. Golden Bowl nails it with the perfect proportion of meat, veggies, and noodles in their Combo Bun. Even better, their meat is delicious and their egg rolls lighter than most (which I enjoy). This is the best Bun Dac Biet I've had from years eating on Federal, in Boulder, etc.....hail the reigning champion. Finally, a word for the service - outstanding. While I don't need great service to be a repeat customer it is refreshing. As a result this is a great restaurant for those new to Vietnamese, and because of the quality of food its great for exploring beyond pho (enjoyed the Mi Quang, Bun Bo Hue, etc.) Give the salty lemonade a try too....its fantastic.

    This place has amazing pho and service. By far the best service of all the near by pho restaurants. I have been there a couple of times. The owner always remember me, very cheerful, and attentive. The most important thing is the food is consistent! The service hot Sake! FTW

    I loved this little hole-in-the-wall up in Broomfield. Too bad I found this place AFTER I moved away, otherwise, I would be here all the time. Nothing fancy here, but it's clean and the food is fresh. I ordered pho, a small bowl, and it was more than enough to fill me up. A great deal for the money. Quick service, too. I will definitely go back and try more items from their menu!

  • Terry B.

    Went here tonight around 6:30pm. I had the Pho with meatballs my wife had the rare steak. The broth was very good. We also tried the egg rolls and the cheese wonton's for an appetizer and we enjoyed them both (the wontons could have had a little more stuffing). The service was friendly and fast and the price was right. With a sea of Pho's to choose from in the area we give this place a thumbs up and will be back again!

    A Broomfield noodle joint just owned everywhere in Little Saigon, Westminster, CA with its chanh muoi. That's right, Westminster, you hear that? You know what they did? They pickled and salted the crap out of that lime, and then they BLENDED IT INTO LITTLE TINY PIECES. Maximum flavor saturation. Every bit of lime went up my straw. They also failed to add 100 teaspoons of sugar. Take note. Even setting the chanh muoi aside, I was still very impressed with this place. My friend and I came here on kind of a whim, not expecting Pho 79 to be closed at 9:15. But it was, and we didn't feel like rearranging our food cravings to accommodate some other type of cuisine. We always used to do this when I lived here: first open mic, then pho. Breaking this sequence is like breaking a habit. I ordered pho with everything, he ordered bun bo hue. I failed to see that they had mi quang on the menu - otherwise I would have ordered that. But we were there a half hour before closing and I didn't have time to really peruse the lengthy menu. Pho it was. It was great - the broth was particularly delicious (though not boiling hot), and all the meat was just ideally cooked. Cooked to pillow-hood, not to jerky-hood. The tendon was average, as was the tripe, so the meat was the star of the show. It was almost so flavorful as to not really need to be dipped in any sauce. Bun bo hue was also great, second only to one place far far away. Spicy, but not too spicy, bloody but not too bloody, herby, but not too... OK, that's a lie, it is very herby and that's awesome. I would say this place is better than both Pho 79 and Pho 95. I rated the other places before I moved to CA and started eating Vietnamese food constantly, and while good, neither of them pack the punch that Golden Bowl does. Pho 95 has better tendon, 79 cooks their noodles a bit better, but Golden Bowl's meat and broth are just unbeatable. I urge potential diners to overlook the divey exterior and give it a try.

    Maybe the Pho here is good for the Broomfield, CO area, but I just found it to be about average compared to the Dallas, TX area. The egg rolls were different, but we could not really appreciate the difference in how they prepared them.

    My family and I ordered each the combination noodle bowl and Rice. For about $7, u get a combo of 80% noodle or rice and 20% meat. I've never seen paper thin meat (chicken, pork and beef) cut like that what they served in the restaurant. Service was blah. Guy took our order and never filled our water glass. Also, I noticed they gave the asians the plastic glass and their white customers the real glass. Hmmm. Don't bother with this place, do yourself a favor and drive up to Federal. Better food for the price!

    Authentic Vietnamese food! I was in Vietnam over Thanksgiving and the food here tastes just like the food we had in Vietnam. And, trust me, there is more to Vietnamese food than Pho. The Goi Ga (chicken salad) and the papaya salad are fabulous. The Mi Quang remains my favorite! Finish it off at the restaurant or if you box it, don't take the noodles home. They tend to dissolve in the broth making it starchy and unappetizing. What is Mi Quang? Our Vietnamese guide explained it as the Pho of the Central Highlands of Viet Nam with "less water." It packs a lot more punch than Pho. Their rice paper rolls are delicious. As are their fried Vietnamese egg rolls. We've had Pho only once at this restaurant. It was Pho Ga (Pho with Chicken) and it wasn't much to write home about. Their Vietnamese coffee is outstanding - both hot and cold. Service is very s.l.o.w. so be prepared to wait, especially at lunch time when they fill up. It's great to see mainly Vietnamese and some Chinese (a friend was able to recognize Mandarin being spoken) folks there, which to me means that the food is pretty darned authentic. However, I am not an authenticity snob (if there is such a phrase) but I do seek flavorful food and I found that at Golden Noodle Bowl House. It isn't very expensive and I will definitely head here instead of Chez Thuy in Boulder for my Vietnamese food fix.

    One of my favorite Vietnamese places in Denver. The pho is great but do some exploring on the menu. The owner is incredibly helpful in recommending new things to try and is very accommodating of dietary restrictions. All of the appetizers and the spicy beef soup (no it's not pho) are worth the trip.

    I've really taken to Golden Bowl over the past month or so. So much good food here. Last time we were there, my partner ordered their Bo Tai Chanh - some kind of raw, marinated beef salad. It looked so amazing. They really have a lot on the menu and other than a couple of slight disappointments, all of their food is just excellent. Their fresh coconut juice is a nice bonus - tastes so much better than canned. I want to go back right now!

    We loved this place. Had the soft shell crab appetizer (3 crabs!, nice size plate), shrimp wrapped in flank steak (yummy). Ordered the seafood in curry, broken rice (which was interesting but tasty). That was enough for 4 meals for 2 people. Wonderful place. Will be coming back often.

    After recently discovering pho, it has been my mission to eat it every chance I get. While visiting a friend in Boulder, we decided to gorge ourselves on Vietnamese goodness. Since I had been to a Pho 79 in Denver, I thought the Broomfield location would be an excellent place to take my lady friend for her first pho experience. Who knew there would be three pho places in the same strip mall?! We accidentally ended up at Golden Noodle instead of Pho 79, and didn't quite realize our mistake until we already got water, so we decided to give it a try. First of all, the wait staff here deserves a big thumbs up for being extremely helpful, very friendly, and overall just wonderful. It almost pains me to describe how I felt about some of the food because I felt so positively about the people. BUT - The summer rolls were absolutely horrendous. The rice paper was hard and chewy, and my request for vegetarian rolls was mixed up, but I decided to try the pork/shrimp instead. Big mistake. The meat tasted like plastic, and no amount of hoisin sauce could save it. I had seen the cheese wontons on the menu, and after reading other people's reviews, I wish I had ordered them instead of the summer rolls. Oh well. The pho wasn't horrible, but I ordered the tofu version so I played it safe. The broth was tasty, and the noodles were perfect. My companion ordered steak with her pho, and it didn't exactly look like she enjoyed it 100% - but at least it was better than the summer rolls. Moral of the story: stick to the pho, try the cheese wontons, and STAY AWAY FROM THE SUMMER ROLLS.

    first time tried this place for lunch, I had the combo #2. The egg rolls were tasty, although I won't rave about it. The ice tea was really good, but I had to ask to get it even though it was included on the menu. The pho was good, not very salty like most I had, although I would prefer a bit more flavorful broth, and the veggies came with the pho was really fresh, and the beef was tender.

  • Dave A.

    The good first, the food is excellent. Service just okay but adequate. But what I can't stand is dirty bathrooms. Seriously how hard would it be to push a mop around the base of the toilet? It would take less than a minute. A peek behind the counter while paying the tab revealed stacked boxes and disarray in the kitchen. I get it, part of the deal when eating at ethnic joints, they are almost always funky in every way. Some days I can tolerate it and others it makes me want to puke. If these things bother you I advise you never look at the county health dept sites.

    When I think of Pho for lunch, I think of this restaurant. It has some of the best tasting Pho around, plus I love that they allow me to add all sorts of additional things to my Pho. Usually I add additional veggies, and extra meat or Tofu. I've been to some places that are not as flexible as they are. Plus the thing that I really love about this place is the customer service. They remember my usual order every time I come in, which isn't that frequent. Plus the menu is very vast. I highly highly recommend this place. So good!

    So, we have tried all the pho places around the block here...golden bowl is like none of the other ones. The pho is fantastic, it is not aarons pho but its pretty yummy , with that said the reason for my absolute love of Golden Bowl and why its on the top of my own list is this: A really cool family type atmosphere, the owners are so welcoming and friendly, even teaching us how to say hi in vietnamese...they rock! Everytime we go they encourage us to try a new dish that seems better than the last. I had a soup with egg noodles, peanuts, shrimp, pork, and lots of fresh veggies...it was so amazing! Each dish I try I always want more of, I love the variety of the menu...in fact even now as I write this review I am getting ready to have lunch...hope to see you there!

    I went here for the first time about a month ago and COULD NOT STOP THINKING ABOUT IT!! This is the perfect little lunch spot. I ordered the combo #1 with a bowl of beef noodle soup and 2 spring rolls. The combo also includes a drink, slammin' deal. The pho is so delicious and comes with a plate of fixins: herbs, bean sprouts, jalapenos and limes. The spring rolls are also very tasty and come with shrimp. I'm about to head back for my 2nd time this week... it's THAT good :)

    We absolutely adore the staff. They always greet us and seat us to the table in a very fashionable manner. The lady there knows our order, even if its been months since we last visited them. Pho there is good. The rice plates are good as well. The boba is different but still has a great taste. Good atmosphere, good location, good good good.

    This is truly the best Vietnamese food I've had (which may not be saying much) and the best in Broomfield for sure! I highly suggest eating in, as the food doesn't travel well and the people who run the place are very nice. The music they play can be a bit odd at times. Pho and beef stew are safe choices, but everything my husband and I have tried has been great. The Vietnamese egg rolls are to die for!

    (5)
  • Tina L.

    This is definitely one of my go-to places when I want Vietnamese food. The staff is very friendly, and it's not super busy so I never have to worry if I end up sitting for a couple hours chatting with a friend. I love their Com Ga Roti, but when I'm in the mood for pho they have a good combo that let's you get a small bowl of pho, a drink and either an order of spring rolls or egg rolls for about $8.

  • Robert G.

    If you like Pho and Vietnamese food, then this place is great. Very reasonably priced and the food was plentiful and delicious. I know there are plenty of other choices in the area, but if I am ever back in this town, I am heading straight here for lunch and/or dinner.

    Great Pho shop and other authentic Vietnamese dishes. Menu is pretty extensive, offering very home-made items not found in other Pho restaurants in the area. The chicken roti is their signature dish and the sauce is outstanding. Pho is great, particularly on cold nights. Friendly service, very knowledgeable and speedy. Egg roll appetizer is also delicious. Nice atmosphere and clean bathrooms.

  • Bundy R.

    Yup ..... This is about as good as it gets...lol this is for sure my favorite restaurant of all time.... The service is great and the food is delicious.... If you haven't tried it, order you a plate called " Ca Roi Di" It's a half fried chicken served over Vietnamese fried rice with 2 slice of cucumber and tomatoes each. And it also comes with their house ,which is soo bomb....lol they also have the beef are stew noodles that comes with brad, and I always like to order extra noodles that's just because I can't get enough of it...lol however, the price are beyond reasonable, so I don't see why you wouldn't go eat there and treat yourself to some great food.... My favorite restaurant..mmmmhhh mmmm I'm going tomorrow... Can't wait... Lol

    It was a good restaurant. My friend ordered the cheese wontons for appetizers and they were very good and cheesy! I got a small bowl of pho that had rare steak and brisket but since I like my steak actually rare, I was sad to see that it was wrinkled and cooked. It was good but nothing spectacular, cheap and delicious. I also brought my 1 year old nephew and the waiters were very nice and attentive.

    At first, I was surprised, how could these people start a pho place in a strip mall with two other very good pho restuarants (Pho 79 & Pho Duy) and across the street is Pho 120. Seriously, 4 Pho places all nearly next door to each other?!? Crazzzzzy. I came here the first time about a week after their grand opening. To my surprise there were a LOT of people in here. The staff was very friendly and attended to me quickly. There was no sign of lost new employees learning the restuarant business. They explained to me the are also the owners of Pho Van (having never eaten there I'm not sure whether it was a good or bad thing). They have a very large menu 7-8 pages of dishes. NICE!!! It seems they are Vietnamese Restaurant, not just a pho joint. Cool. The have all the traditional pho soups... plus a great selection and variety of other stuff if you're not in a pho mood. I've ordered a few things here in my couple of visits. I ordered a egg noodle soup with duck meat (WOW! great!), beef stew with brown broth, carrots, potatoes and a side of rice (or french bread) and ... well some sort of noodle soup with pig parts and cubes of coagulated pigs blood (I guess I can't fault them for not liking pig's blood, but no I wasn't crazy about that one). I'm really happy they've opened up here in Broomfield. It's finally nice to have good Vietnamese food without having to drive downtown to Alemeda & Federal. Is this the BEST vietnamese I've had? No, but Broomfield is so void of good restuarants... If someone gave you a icy cold PBR in the desert would you still enjoy it? HELL YEAH!!!

    Authentic Vietnamese food. Ask them what they recommend other than the pho. Don't use the watered down fish sauce. Use the one in the bottle on the table. Use the oyster sauce too. That's where it is at in this cuisine. You won't be disappointed!

    My go to dish at every Vietnamese place is pork bun. It's what I use to compare one place against another. This place's pork bun was ok. Pretty much on par with the stuff you get on Federal. But here's the thing. Vietnamese food in Colorado is pretty meh, so saying it's on par with the rest ain't saying much. I wish the pork were thicker and juicier. I wish there were more cucumbers and bean sprouts. The upside though is I found the prices to be slightly lower than other places.

    I was super excited when my friend informed me of Golden Bowl in Broomfield. We actually ended up going the very next day. With a party of 10 with 1.5 yr old twins we were definitely a large party for the smaller establishment, but I have to say the service was by far one of the best. The staff is super friendly, helpful and were very accomodating with tots. If you're looking for quantity when it come to the pho I would say that the bowls are a bit smaller than their counterparts in the same strip, but what they lack in quantity they gain in flavor. I've gone back a few times but I'm trying to make it a point to go back more.

    I recently moved from Arizona and had a favorite pho place back there. Some coworkers introduced me to Golden Bowl, and I loved it from the first time. I immediately figured the place was good because, upon walking in, I noticed that all of the other patrons were Asian. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves pho! The pho is excellent, and I love that they offer three portion sizes; I just can't consume that much liquid, so the small size works out well for me. At my old place, I had to order a larger size and then end up throwing half of it away. There are a ton of choices on the menu, so you can find your favorite conbination of broth, meat, and noodle types. They give you plenty of toppings for your pho, which I also love because I usually snack on the bean sprouts. Service is prompt and friendly, and the staff (owners?) get to know you quickly. Prices are also very reasonable, maybe even below average. I paid about $12 for a bowl and an iced coffee at my old regular pho place, but Golden Bowl costs about $10. They also have a good meal option which includes a medium bowl, two egg rolls, and a drink.

    With Pho 79 (best one out of the area) around, I figured this would be a good competitor. I was wrong. If you like very greasy pho soup, this is the place. The soup was... bland. Egg rolls were good but nothing special. I felt like they got the pho wrong... and if a Pho place can't cook pho right, it's a no go for me. My co worker and I won't be back for this place.

    If you like pho and want some different options, Golden Bowl is for you. The beef stew and the spicy beef are good. Mi Quang is a Vietnamese style soup and it was awesome. Those are the things I've tried so far besides the pho. I intend on going there and trying more new things. It has yet to disappoint. This place is a gem.

    My gf and I went last night. The lady that works (owns?) there greeted me as she's known me since I was going to Pho Van back in the day. I got the com dac biet (rice combo plate) and my gf got bun rieu (soup noodle bowl with shrimp paste). We both love it as always. Both items are better than Pho Duy up a few shops and cheaper, as well. I havent had the pho there yet but I'll post another review when I do.

  • Hannah W.

    Pho was okay, but wasn't amazing. I think I still like Pho 79 better. The noodles were good, the broth was okay, but overall the Pho just had a blandness about it. They had a vegetable noodle bowl, but I wasn't sure if it was the same as Pho or not, so I just got beef. I usually don't get beef any more, but if I remember correctly, 79 does the same thing, except their beef is better. It could have been the lack of vegetables that made things bland, I'm not sure, but I probably won't go back.

    Interested in seeing what this place was all about, and being a Pho-natic lover, we decided to give this place a try. It was nice and clean the staff was very attentive, and polite, the food was good, and the prices were fair. 5 of us ate there for 47.00 bucks, that really is not bad at all. It was a worth going to place.

    im SOOOOO glad the old owners of pho van opened golden bowl in broomfield ! HUGE menu that covers most Vietnamese dishes...we frequent this place often because its delicious ! Pho is pretty good, but dishes like Chicken Rhoti (Fried Chicken over rice), Bun Bo Hue (Beef soup with Pigs feet and Coagulated blood), Com Dac biet (Rice Plate) and all their noodle dishes are amazing ! and they have Broken Rice ! o yea, try the Lemon Ice Tea, its the BEST ive had outside of CALIFORNIA !
