10/10!!! The soft shell crab buns were amazing, especially if Duncan is making them! We sat at the counter and loved watching the team prepare our food while enjoying small talk. Our server, Tate, was amazing too! She was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The staff was so friendly with each other, which made the whole experience even better. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere.

Uncle is the best ramen in Denver… it’s not even close! We always recommend Uncle & will continue to do so. Food is amazing & consistent. We’ve never left unhappy. The broth, the noodles, the carefully composed bowls- so good. Highly recommend the duck ramen. The small plates are amazing too. Order a bun & don’t sleep on the spicy cucumbers or chilled tofu. Tate helped us on our most recent visit. She was one of the kindest & most thoughtful servers we’ve ever had. We were dining with our 7 yr old twins & she anticipated everything we needed without us asking. It was wild in the best way. Connor is also very welcoming & hospitable. Side note for the owners:: please bring back the shrimp buns & modern whiskey drink. I’d also love to eat kimchi potatoes again at some point.

The Good: Their appetizers are absolutely delicious, and they make a genuinely good vegetarian ramen option. The Ramen: If you are hunting for traditional ramen, this isn't the spot. The ramen is prepared with a heavy Thai-fusion concept, which completely changes the classic flavor profile. They do have a good sushi & sashimi options. It's a fun concept if you want to try something new

Not a bad spot for some ramen! Friendly service, good drinks, and delicious spicy cucumbers. The spicy chicken was pretty good. I loved the broth and noodles. The chicken was a little tough but I think I expected that when it comes to chicken in ramen. Aside from that, everything was wonderful. Now for my standard comments. Location is well kept and clean. Decent indoor seating though can get a little crowded. Still very comfortable.
