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 Lounge: Mezzanine @ Lakehouse
While our Downtown ChoLon celebrates our signature Asian flavors and traditions, we are building upon the spirit of ChoLon with our newest concept: ChoLon Lounge. This is taking Asian flavors in an entirely new direction: dumplings, cocktails, and culinary cuisine we’ve never created before. This concept takes a more intimate, cocktail-lounge experience. It’s ChoLon, reimagined: familiar at its core, but constantly evolving beyond expectation.
