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.

✨ New Seasonal Sips Have Arrived ✨Our bar team has been crafting magic, and two new winter cocktails have officially hit the menu.
🌙 Winter Lights
A cozy, cold-weather glow in a glass. Mars Iwai whiskey lays down rich warmth, spun together with spiced apple, bright pomegranate, and a pop of orange. It’s equal parts festive, comforting, and downright irresistible.
🧧 Red Envelope
Bold, vibrant, and full of good fortune. Suerte Blanco tequila meets Ancho Reyes Verde for a little heat, softened by pineapple and bell pepper, then finished with a whisper of roasted coconut. Unexpected, layered, and the perfect winter escape.
