We just discovered this little gem. It's about a mile or two away from our house in the heart of Cherry Creek. If you are arriving late this little place serves food till 11 pm. They make the best Singapore noodles we've ever had! They also do "River Noodles" which are gluten free. Really small menu... basically noodles and dumplings. But why not be the best at a few things, right? Super friendly wait staff and very reasonable prices. Sit outside and people watch if you can.

Okay, you may have to risk your life to get into this kooky parking lot off of a curve on Holly street... but the food is good! Get a breakfast burrito or butter-milk biscuit with egg the way you like it, then during lunch until 3 p.m. (?) they offer delicious burritos and street tacos for cheap! After 4:00 you can get a gourmet pizza, calzones or salads. No delivery - you have to pick it up, but it's very close to our place. Gluten free friendly! A funky, but good option for affordable take-out.

We think its the best pho in town. Delicious and authentic. They will make it to go or eat there. The noodle bowls are also delicious. Kind of quiet inside and not super busy or crowed.
