Golden Bowl

My soup was outstanding???? but if you ask for steak and shrimp phò beware it will cost you $2 for 2 ???? ???? instead of 50%steak an 50%shrimp that it was what I ordered????.... I should have done it pho shrimp and side of steak ???? live an learn....

This restaurant is in the same building as the Howard Johnson. The motel is a dump, the restaurant is our favorite pho place we've found. Service is friendly, the broth is rich and tasty. You will notice the lobby of the motel smells like stale smoke. Luckily the restaurant smells and appears very clean.
Also the restaurant unfortunately shares a restroom with the motel, stay the hell out of there, I'm kind of a slob and the restrooms still gross me out.

I ordered a large bowl of won ton soup. Lots of veggies and protein and it was delicious. Will definitely come back again.

Hands down one of the best restaurants in Wheat Ridge. Here's why...1. Fresh ingredients. There's a big difference between food cooked to order and FRESH food cooked to order and whomever is in charge of the kitchen knows that. Fresh food is becoming more rare in the foodservice industry and its nice to find. Well done. 2. Portions are appropriate. Not too much not to little.
3. Attention to detail. Our plates were arranged and presented neatly with truly fine tasting fresh cucumber and carrots cut and arranged into designs on the plate. That all takes time and effort to remain diligent in and most likely speaks volumes about other tasks as well.
4. Clean restrooms. Granted, the facilities are part of the hotel, they are clean as are the rest of the public areas.
5. Canned soft drinks. I have a personal theory about how this is a sign of a clean, well run kitchen most of the time, however this is not the place to explain it.
6. Friendliness. We were greeted with smiles and treated as guests the entire visit with attentive, non overbearing, meal service. Our waitress was polite and thankful when she was given a tip.
In closing, you can't beat it. I can't believe that I have lived here for 25 years and this is the first time I have been in, it won't be my last. Sure its across from the truck stop inside a budget hotel, the decor is older, the entrance is outdated...it's a unique place with fresh tasting entrees with good service and if you go most likely you'll think so as well.
