New Orient Restaurant

Wow, pleasantly surprised with my recent dining experience here! I rarely write reviews, but this was one of the best dinners I have had this year. The food was absolutely delicious, my date and I shared the appetizer platter as well as the sea food bowl. We enjoyed both so much, we ended up ordering more and got the beef kebab, which the owner was kind enough to demonstrate how to roll our own spring rolls with. We had never made our own rolls before with rice paper, and had a great time learning from the owner! You can tell she is very passionate about her restaurant. When we were finished, the chef brought out dessert and made sure we enjoyed everything. I would give 6 stars if I could; I was just so blown away by the quality of service and fantastic food! This place needs more love!

I've been going to New Orient with my family for a couple of decades and the food has always been phenomenal. Meals are served family style and their rotating list of specials is definitely where you should start looking for your choice of dishes. Here you'll find a mixture of old favorites (try the Honey Sesame Halibut) and fresh creations. Seafood is a specialty but that shouldn't dissuade you from dishes like the Two Mushroom Beef Tenderloin, one of the most flavorful and tender preparations of beef I've had. The specials currently available will change but anything you see will not disappoint. Another must try is the lobster dinner special. You'll have to call ahead to see when this special will be available to reserve your lobster but this is a meal that merits making the time for. This preparation of deep fried lobster is the BEST lobster I've ever had. Fried in-shell, with a very light batter, and served pre-cracked you'll find yourself sucking on the shell in order to get every last bit of the wonderful flavors infusing the dish. This is no ordinary lobster dinner. The dinning area is small, but the inviting ambiance makes for an enjoyable dinning experience. The staff is wonderful and you'll likely be greeted by the restaurant's owner and head chef at some point during your meal, making sure everything is to your liking. This small restaurant in a strip mall is easy to miss but the fresh ingredients coupled with excellent preparation of creative and flavorful dishes has made New Orient a favorite for my family for over twenty years.

This restaurant has been around for more than 30 years. It is one of the first Vietnamese eateries in Denver. The dishes are good. Special Chef dish every weekend. Good price for both lunch and dinner.

Still the best! The quality of the food is fantastic. They have been at it for over 30 years. Pay a little more and get quality you can taste!

Have been coming here for years..love the salmon hotpot!! Tonight soft shell crab bowl..so delicious!!
