HISTORY OF CHOLON MODERN ASIAN

ChoLon translates to “big market” in Vietnamese and is named after the largest Chinese-influenced market in Saigon. It also includes Executive Chef/Owner Lon Symensma’s first name, so after his extensive culinary travels across Asia, it “felt right” to open ChoLon in 2010 in Denver.

ChoLon Sloan’s Lake was opened in 2024 to offer our unique menu to the Sloan’s Lake neighborhood.

You’ll notice ChoLon’s menu plays on interpretations of traditional dishes found across the Far East, combined with slight nods to Lon’s classical European training. For example, French onion soup is not usually found inside of a hand-pleated Chinese dumpling, but you’ll experience whimsical dishes like this across our menu.

Fall is here — the leaves are changing, and so is our menu 🍂🍃🍁

Cozy up on our outdoor patio and dive into new seasonal flavors like our Chicken Wontons, sitting in Fall Spice Chili Crunch/topped with scallion, and our Wok-Charred Steak Lo Mein with broccoli romanesco, bell pepper, chimichurri, and smoked soy. Autumn never tasted so good! 🔥
