John Holly's Asian Bistro

It’s been a few years since I last got food here. It’s still good, but service was on the slower side. Portions were reasonable though and I had some leftovers to bring home. I enjoy the decor, and the free pineapple slice our server brought out after the meal.

Overall the food was lackluster. We were able to get in with no wait on a Saturday at 6pm. Took a little while to get service at the table but nothing horrible. Our waiter was fairly new and forgot one of the items we ordered. Again, no big issue as we had ordered enough food. The hot and sour soup was good. The Mongolian beef was very salty and meat was mushy. The vegetables were great though. Also ordered some John Holly chicken and it was a little too crispy, but not bad. Overall it was an ok meal at best.

Absolutely phenomenal experience at John Holly’s Asian Bistro. The crab rangoons are hands-down some of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly crispy on the outside, loaded with creamy filling, and clearly made fresh. I honestly could’ve ordered two more plates. The service was just as impressive. Super friendly, attentive without hovering, and genuinely made us feel welcome from start to finish. Food came out fast, everything was hot, and the staff checked in at all the right times.

Two years ago, I had dinner at John Harry Harry with friends, and every dish was really good. This time, I came again with friends. We ordered beef and seafood—all ingredients are genuine and fresh, and the flavors are amazing. There's also fried noodles; the owner said we must squeeze some lemon juice on them to make them taste better. And sure enough, it made a difference in the flavor. We also had sushi. Each slice of sashimi is fresh, and it's delicious with wasabi. Every waiter is very nice, and the owner even came to our table to serve tea and chat with us. It was a very pleasant dinner.

I CANNOT emphasize how INCREDIBLE this place is in food, service, and environment. We happened upon this restaurant late at night and Grace, the owner, literally welcomed us with so much warmth and despite being new to this restaurant she was incredibly sweetest and giving us the best service with EVERYTHING ❤️ ALSO, as someone from LA and knowing that DENVER usually never lives up to the Asian food scene, I’M CONFIDENT this is the NUMBER 1 ASIAN FOOD HERE in the city. I’m so blown away and literally this is the first time I’ve ever written a food review but YALL come here👏🏻
