Yuan Wonton in Denver, CO - Authentic Dumplings and Wontons

What an incredible find! The dumplings were all incredibly good and the mango sticky rice is something I sill have food dreams about!

Everything we ordered was superb! Not a single bad bite throughout our meal. Some dumpling spots in Denver are completely overpriced and overhyped but that couldn't be farther from the case here. Definitely check it out and enjoy!!

My friend & I have been dying to try this place & it did not disappoint! We got several things off the menu to split - I can’t pick a favorite because every dish was phenomenal. It was elegant yet comforting, PACKED with flavor, and made with love (I could tell). Thank you Yuan Wonton for such a beautiful meal, we will be back!

Yuan Wonton is, without question, one of the best restaurants I’ve experienced in Denver. From start to finish, the food was world-class—perfectly executed dishes bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The service was outstanding; staff were so attentive that my cup of sake was never allowed to run empty. Every detail of the evening felt deliberate and refined, making the whole operation feel Michelin star–caliber. An absolute must-visit for anyone who loves exceptional dining.

Gourmet dim sum is so on the rise in Denver which makes it a great time to be alive as is the whole experience at Yuan - The restaurant is such an enjoyable, original layout with large, open-air environs, ample patio seating and a view of the kitchen where you can watch the lovely owner and head chef enjoying her craft in such a content manner that you can't help but join her in the feeling. You can easily ignore the view to the kiddies' excitement at the nearby playground or periodically watch through just a little foliage which punctuated this experience as bliss in community. I actually give a 4.5 rating but round up to 5 given this delightful scene. Sorry but I'm a perfectionist when it comes to trendy, talented restaurants/bars. I had the Chili Oil Wontons, Szechuan Eggplant Dumplings, sake, both cocktails and Mantou for dessert. All was extremely fresh, thoughtfully presented and delectable, particularly the Chili Oil Wontons as the best tasting item, careful though, watch how much oil you use in each bite because the spice level can sneak up on you, lol. The menu is surprisingly small but made up for in quality. Are there really only 2 cocktails to choose from? At least that's all I saw on the happy hour menu. If there's anything I would ask it would be to expand their repertoire in that arena. Both are quality though. The service ranges from professional to personable depending on your liking but it is absolutely top of the line here!! Everyone is so keyed-in to providing a memorable experience and with everything else I already described, life is beautiful here.

Whaaaaaat is happening here? POW Zap Yum! The flavors and delicate blend of spice is absolute perfection. They know what they are doing for sure. Service was refreshing to have someone who actually seemed like they wanted to be there and have a convo about the food. Everything was bright out on small sharable plates as soon as they were ready and the flow was spot on for conversation at the table. Daytime restaurant but they ole once a month for a dinner. The vibe is lively with fresh air, natural light and the space is full but in a good way. Every bite of every dish - ten stars and I can’t wait to come back and try another group of four things! We were too full to try anything else but we did eat every morsel of every dish. Oh, and. please don’t ever take that ube cream brûlée off the menu. Best dessert I’ve had in forever!!!

Weird hours can still be happy. Snuck in and tucked in the corner table at 5:05p (closes at 6p) on a Friday for the Happy Hour Menu and the four us were able to order most of the small menu to try most everything. Thai Yam Salad, Mussels and the signature won tons were all hits and the desserts are always a rotating surprise. Good stuff, excellent vibes, very kind staff

I'd honestly have to say, I came here with very low expectations. But I'm glad I was proven wrong. It definitely is a different restaurant with the menu changing but I can honestly say, one of the BEST restaurants I've ever been to. Ive tried a michelin star restaurant for their buns, and these are way better. Im happy to hear this chef is receiving recognition for her work with the awards she is nominated for... I definitely will be coming back here and recommend to anyone who reads this...
