"After our visit to the Denver Zoo, we stumbled upon this charming restaurant and were greeted warmly by the friendly staff. Our server was not only polite but also genuinely enthusiastic about enhancing our dining experience. The food was outstanding—served hot and fresh, with steam wafting from the plates. I enjoyed the Chicken Pad Thai, while my friend chose the Shrimp Lo Mein, and we both thought the dishes were absolutely delicious. The portion sizes were generous and provided great value for the money. The restaurant itself was very clean and had a lovely ambiance. However, I should note that the parking lot can be a bit tricky to navigate. The city allows parking on both sides of the street, which can make maneuvering quite challenging. While this isn't a criticism of the restaurant, as it’s outside their control, it does present a difficulty."

When we first walked in, it was extremely cold and filled with a strong smell of garlic! Our first thought was to sit outside, even though there were no other customers around.

I dropped by for a quick lunch and chose a seat at the bar. The service was incredibly fast and attentive. The Penang curry was spot on. With windows on two sides, the atmosphere was bright and refreshing. I haven't visited in a while, but I definitely plan to return. I loved it! View menu

There was only a hostess and a server for lunch and they killed it! The server was super sweet and very skilled at her job. Despite the short staffing, there was no wait to sit, very little wait to order and the food came out crazy fast. The Pho was great! The fish tank is pretty cool too.

Thai Basil is truly excellent! The food was delicious, and we enjoyed a wonderful dining experience. My server, Sally, was fantastic—she was friendly, attentive, and her suggestions were perfect. Everything we tasted was so flavorful! A big thank you to Sally for recommending the mango cake and the Thai iced tea!

This is, without a doubt, the worst Thai food I've ever had in my forty-something years. The "moderate" curry had a strange flavor reminiscent of upholstery, along with hints of corduroy and linen. As for my wontons, they were practically raw—I'm not exaggerating! I’ve included a photo. They were just dough with a cold filling. To add to that, my 5-year-old, who often munches on crayons, erasers, and paint chips from our 90-year-old Denver home, also thought dinner was just “blah.” View menu

My nurses at PSL recommended this restaurant for both lunch and dinner, praising its quality. I chose to try the Thai Basil chicken, and it was outstanding! It had a generous serving of tender chicken and perfectly cooked bok choy. My brother opted for the chicken lo-mein, and he devoured every last bite. Both dishes were served in large portions. We also tried the spicy chicken wings, which were cooked to perfection. I would have given a full 5 stars, but the only downside was that the wings weren't tossed in a spicy sauce; instead, we received Hoisin sauce and Sriracha on the side for dipping. The service was excellent too. We are definitely looking forward to our next lunch or dinner at t...

As for the Chicken Satay, the chicken was fine and mildly seasoned, which was acceptable. However, the peanut sauce was excessively sweet, and I didn’t care for the diced pineapples served with it, as I don’t think they complement the dish well. The Tom Kha soup had a great flavor! Some restaurants dilute their Tom Kha with too much chicken stock, resulting in a bland dish, but this version was flavorful. Unfortunately, it also lacked heat, despite my request for "Thai hot." As a devoted Thai food enthusiast, it’s incredibly frustrating to constantly emphasize the need for spiciness, yet still encounter restaurants that can’t seem to deliver. I’ve never sent food back, but it’s disappointi...

"Love this place! Absolutely zero complaints. Wife surprised me with a stay in Rino for Father’s Day with Colorado Sake being the main reason for the stay. I’m a sake enthusiast at home. Everything we tried was amazing. We spent a couple of hours and did a couple of flights along with some Kanzake(warm sake) and tried 5-6 different izikaya dishes and they were all amazing. We stumbled upon a comedy show that we didn’t even know was happening which was absolutely hilarious. I loved the place so much, I ended up going back in the morning for round 2 and tried the remaining flavors I missed the night before.Met Taylor and she was incredibly attentive and helped us get through the rest of the flavors so we could pick the 6 bottles I wanted to take home as well as recommending some amazing food options. They had ran out of take home bottles and she did everything in her power to figure out a way for me to be able to bring home the bottles we wanted. Thankfully the owner came in with more bottles right before we left. All in all, one of the best Father’s Day trips I’ve had, such good food and the best drinks.I can’t wait to go down there again. Unfortunately I have a feeling I am going to have a hard time drinking the traditional sake I’m used to because this slightly different version is so damn good!Again shoutout to Taylor and the crew for taking the greatest care of us.This place rocks!!!"

"In a relatively unassuming location north of City Park lies a cute conglomerate of businesses, one of which being Rivers Roads. On nice days, it 's exceptionally setup for indoor/outdoor space. But even on cold days, it 's nice to cozy up with a cup of coffee and soak in the sun flooding the space through the south-facing glass garage doors. The coffee is great! I got my usual cortado, which was served in a small paper cup and featured no latte art , which was unfortunate. But that 's where the disappointment ended, as the flavors were excellent and it was well-balanced between milk and espresso. The space itself is quite spacious even inside, with plenty of plants and unique lighting fixtures. There 's ample cafe-style seating. It 's a great place to stay and work awhile or meet friends for conversations. Music isn 't overpowering, and WiFi is half decent. Not exceptional speeds but 25 up/down is adequate for many basic things. Plenty for me to finish the series finale of See in 4K while sipping my cortado!The staff are always pleasant and I would say more attentive than average, making you feel welcomed immediately. It 's not exactly in my neighborhood, but it 's still a regular spot for me. Seasonal drinks are good and most syrups are made in-house. Food is great. Outdoor patio is spacious and dog-friendly. There 's simply not many downsides, if any. Aside from there not being an actual river."
