Reviews for Uncle in Denver, CO
For a more specific - 3.5 stars. It just didn’t really hold a candle to a lot of the other ramen in many of the other cities... and even smaller towns I’ve been to in the country. Yeah, it’s pretty good, but you can easily beat this at home - which ishard to do for a lot of ramen joints. Even chains like Slurping Turtle beat this place out in taste and price, which is thepinnacle of just “okay” ramen. Pork buns were great, but a little too expensive. I’m going to give this spot anothertry, though. I think there are some other ramen options that may try my mind, and unfortunately, Denver’s ramen options arepretty small from my initial research.

The ramen here is so good! It was 7 o’clock on a Friday night so they were poppin! We snagged two seats at the bar which gives... you an up close view of the kitchen and chefs working hard! The waitress recommended the fried eggplant bao buns and they weredelicious but could totally skip and just have the ramen. The spicy chicken bowl, oh my! It was spicy and savory and justeverything I wanted. Will definitely come back and order that again. We also ordered the chili beef bowl (which is hotter thanthe spicy chicken bowl, fyi) which tasted awesome too. Can’t wait to come back! Read more
The server Sunny was our favorite part! She was so friendly and fun. We both got the Veggie Khoa Soi and it was bomb. I got an... extra side of noodles ($2 extra) and it turned the bowl into 2 large meals. The curry was so creamy and delish. Literally mynew fav Ramen spot. A bowl is around $18. The bill includes gratuity, so keep that in mind. Read more
I ordered the Veggie Khao Soi with a side of fried tofu and a soft egg and with no mustard greens. Overall, the taste was very... pleasant. Although there was spicy chili jam in the broth, the spiciness was barely there. Next time, I’d order a side ofchili oil. The noodles were thick and chewy; they had a very nice bite to them. I don’t think this ramen hit the spot for me,but in a pinch, it’d do. The location is awesome! Plenty of bike parking with bikes parked. Plenty of foot traffic. Read more
This place is phenomenal! The food was absolutely delicious! Caitlin was an amazing waitress! She was cute, warm and friendly... and very knowledgeable about the menu. The atmosphere was hopping and the place was busy. So obviously the secret is out. Theappetizers were delicious. Highly recommend the fried eggplant bun and the pork belly buns. The shrimp and the beef appetizerswere fantastic. The Chashu Ramen was warm and hearty. Perfect for a cold winters evening. I'll be back! Read more
Very solid ramen at Uncle. The Khao Soi ramen was an absolute revelation. Larb lettuce wrap app was tasty as well. Highlands... location had a slightly different menu than the Wash Park location which is cool. Will definitely be back. Read more
Went here with some friends because we heard it was the best ramen place. I personally wasn’t thrilled with it but my friends... were. We got the duck ramen and it was pretty good. We tried their spicy sauce (which they charge $2 for and when they bring itout they recommend only using a small bit of it.. so why not bring a very small amount out and not charge $2 for it…?) thecrunchy tofu was pretty good too. overall the place was very overpriced and their main seating are community tables. We gotlucky and didn’t have to sit at a community table. It’s a small place so they do what they can. It was so busy on a Thursdaynight and they don’t take reservations and won’t seat you until your whole party is there. Read more
