Reviews for Meta Asian Kitchen in Denver, CO
Got the Chicken Charsui with rice dish. The chicken was perfectly cooked and well marinated. The char comes across well on the... meat and you get that hint of smokeyness. They used thigh meat so it's nice and juicy. The egg was cooked very well with crispyedges and runny yolk. My only complaint would have to be the rice. It was severely undercooked. There was charsui sauce all overthe rice and i was looking forward to eating all the rice, but with a hardened center i could barely eat any of the rice. If therice were cooked well, i know this dish would be flawless. Read more
I was so pleasantly surprised to find such authentic scallion pancake wraps in Denver of all places. I haven't had these since I... was visiting Taiwan when I was a little kid. The scallion pancakes were crispy, not skimpy with the scallions like most otherplaces. Filled with scrambled egg, tender hoisin beef, cilantro, bean sprouts - soooo good and fresh tasting! They only serve iton weekends from 11-2 so get there early and grab a spot on the deck upstairs for a great snack brunch with a drink. Read more
Best dumplings and noodles we've had since visiting Beijing. Tasted the dumplings, sizzling noodles, and bao. Sizzling noodles... are amazing. Perfect amount of spice and that numbing feeling that Sichuan is famous for. Everything was absolutely delicious.If we were being very picky, the pork belly bao was a touch sweet for our taste, but even that is not a flaw. We'll definitelybe back. Read more
I have some thoughts about one of the items. The place is really good so I gave it 5 stars, and you should give it a try if... you're in area, but it's more 4.5 for their spicy noodles. It's like someone who has never cooked spicy food was cooking forsomebody who said they liked spicy food, so they add everything they can think of that is spicy regardless of how it tastes.Like if you say you love salty flavor so they add a bucket of salt. I like good spicy food where spiciness works with theoverall flavour of the dishes, not like being given a chili pepper to bite on. Read more
World's best dumplings. I don't visit Denver often but when I'm here this is my #1 place to eat. Every order I've had off their... menu leaves me with memories I'll never forget. If you are in a large group, order one of everything off the menu for anunforgettable experience. Read more
Fantastic flavor, boa buns tasted like biting into fluffy little clouds. Really enjoyed the pork.
Update 2/2/21: I ordered takeout again through Postmates and something went wrong on Postmates' end. When I reordered and... received my food, Meta Asian Kitchen comped me a scallion pancake (also delicious) and apologized for the canceled order (whichwas not their issue). Classy people and great food! I ordered the spicy noodles and Chinatown dumplings. They were delicious!Ye be warned, they mean business with their spice. But that?s exactly what I was looking for and I was very pleased! Thedumplings were also delicious! My only issue was that there wasn?t much for veggies in the noodles. If they could figure outthat ratio a little better, they would have been perfect! Read more
I love the food but your worker wouldn?t let us order as we were coming up he just flipped the IPad as we were walking up to... order and it was 15mins until closing. And we asked if we could order couple things to go and he just rudely shook his head. Andsaid No. Read more
