ChoLon - Central Park

Had a very good dinner last Friday with Andrea who took good care of us. Highlight was the kaya toast which is a nice spin on the traditional version with an egg foam instead of softboiled. We also really enjoyed the chix sliders which were nicely spiced and very crispy. Malaysian noodles were also good with a decent char and smoke flavor and plenty of shrimp. A little over priced we thought for the amount in the bowl. The 36 chambers was nice if a little over sweet. Still the sesame wash on the shochu was very present. Only complete miss for us was a new menu item the fried shrimp roll. Rice was gummy and slightly overcooked, not much flavor on the not quite hot enough shrimp and the sauce on top was so sweet it just overwhelmed the bite. Tried dousing in soy sauce to bounce back the sweet and it did not help. Hopefully they can fine tune this, but was not good in present state.

"The brussels sprouts were amazing"...said no one ever. Until we came to ChoLon for restaurant week. Both soup dumplings, egg rolls, Malaysian noodles with waygu beef...all very good. But the star for us were the brussels sprouts. Never tasted anything like them before! They were simply riveting. We plan to return and order a plate or two of just this!

I love this place and will be back. ChoLon is a great place and give me great feeling when having dinner with my family. The service is great! My mom and I love the Kaya toast! What an incredible dish. Besides, dessert are really good too. Thank you

ChoLon is ran by Chef Lon who knows how to do Asian Fusion cuisine. Everyone knows ChoLon your soup dumplings but this location is now featuring sushi! ChoLon Central Park now has a limited sushi menu and it goes amazingly well with the rest of their menu of Dumplings, Bao Buns, Noodles and more! The sushi was extremely fresh and flavorful, better than most places I've had in town. The pork belly was super tender, the calamari full of flavor. I have no complaints when dining at ChoLon!

Absolutely delicious! Setting was beautiful. I had the noodles with pork and enjoyed every bite. He had the chicken fried rice and it was the best I have ever had. For the whole meal with French fries for the little and a drink for each of us we paid almost 100 dollars after tip. But we felt it was well worth it.

Amazing food and amazing staff. We came to Cholon for my birthday in early November and our server Gregory truly made our night with how fun and attentive he was. We came at the end of happy lunch and he made sure to get our order before it ended and when he didn’t come back in time to see if we wanted more he honored it. We ordered a good amount of food to split between our party and it was all delicious, and we thought it was funny the staff seemed impressed at our ability to put it away. Definitely a memorable birthday dinner, so much I’m leaving the review shy of 20 days later still impressed with the amazing service we had! Be safe and make reservations as we did see a few parties being turned away.

We visited Cholon, Central Park over the weekend and I couldn’t wait to check it out; this was my first time dining at the Central Park location. Cholon has my death row meal and trust me when I say there is nothing like their French Onion Soup Dumplings (we frequent the location in Denver). We arrived at Cholon, Central Park and were seated in the main dining room. The aesthetic of the restaurant was unique & nautical with wood framing resembling waves, blue seating, and circular wood accented chandeliers. The staff was professional and friendly - General Manager, Monica and Server, Oliva took great care of us and made sure our lunch ran smoothly. We also got to meet Marketing department heads Samantha and Tyler who were both lovely. The Central Park Cholon location offers several different menu items than the downtown location such as sushi and several large plates. During our visit, there was even a sushi making class going on in the bar. Ross and I started off our lunch with Earl Grey Tea. The flavor profile of the black tea blend was a combination of bergamot, florals and lemony citrus. For small plates we (of course) each had our own order the French Onion Soup Dumplings made with gruyere cheese. Each dumpling order came with four dumplings served in bamboo steamers. We let the French Onion Soup Dumplings dumplings sit for about 5 minutes to cool. Once cooled, I delicately grabbed a dumpling withy my chopsticks and popped the heavenly dim sum piece into my mouth. Upon first bite, the chewy dough gave way to hot French onion soup broth and melty gruyere cheese - a savory symphony and a must order. The General Cho's Soup Dumplings were made with chicken. These doughy pockets of deliciousness were bursting with glossy broth and flavor charged with bold spice (much spicier than the french onion). A must order. The Crystal Edamame Dumplings were made with chili-ponzu and green apple (a seasonal menu item). These dumplings had a bouncy texture and the crystal edamame filling was granular yet fluffy. They were much lighter in substance than the French onion and General Cho's dumplings. A must order. The Stir Fry was made with wagyu beef and vegetables. This stiry fry was forward in soy sauce and had nice lingering heat on the tongue. The garlic and black pepper in the stir fry complemented the meaty flavor of wagyu beef and bright vegetables. The crisp bok choy had a good snap in texture against the chew of the meat. The Tempura Chicken Sliders were served with spicy aioli. The sliders were great and we loved that they were tempura fried. This made for perfectly textured chicken - crispy and light on the outside yet juicy in the middle. For dessert we had the Kaya Creme Brulee made with white pepper crumble and soy ice cream. This asian inpsired creme brulee was so unqiue and we loved it. It was a sweet, custardy spread with a warm nutty topping. The dessert had a faint taste of coconut. The soy ice cream was thick and cold against the warm vanilla custard - 10/10.
