The food an service was top notch. They had live entertainment that was too loud to carry on a conversation when seated on the patio. Seating inside helped a bit but still a bit too loud for easy conversation

The food was truly excellent. Waitress got to us quickly and seemed well-informed on menu, was cheerful and fun. Labelling some items "GF" for gluten free when they can't actually be made without gluten is confusing and misleading, but other than that, a very positive experience.

We loved the chicken wings and potstickers. The chicken ramen was not great- the broth in particular wasn't tasty. The tofu salad would've been good if it wasn't swimming in a lake of salty ingredients. The service was fantastic. I will go back but maybe stick to drinks and apps there.

Love Ace, one of our favs. The food was fantastic, particularly the Tiger Wings. SO GOOD! The service was super slow the last time we were there, but maybe it was due to a shortage of workers, I can't be sure. However, our server was very pleasant and apologetic for the slowness. We will for sure be back, maybe even next weekend!

Really enjoyed this place last time we were here. This time the service was non-existent and the food wasn't great. Under cooked brussel sprouts. Chicken wings has an odd texture. Ping pong was super fun though.

We had great service at first, but servers changed once our food was delivered. We were done eating for a long time and had to ask for to-go containers. Then a long time later we had to ask for the check, and it took forever for them to come back for payment.

Overall the food and service were good, albeit slow, but our waitress made up for the delays by offering free dessert and a gift card for ping pong play on our next visit so everyone was satisfied. Great ambience and everyone was very friendly. We weren't able to partake in the activities but look forward to coming back to try the whole Peking duck and some ping pong.

Overall good experience, however some items were misses. The matcha latte had a very grainy texture and was made with canned coconut milk. The Japanese souffle pancake really missed the mark. The texture was not a souffle at all, it was more like an Angel food cake. Taiyaki chicken and waffles and Brussel sprouts were the star of the show.

Always a great place to have a couple drinks with a large group and get a bite to eat while playing some ping pong. The Bao is amazing and I would highly recommend the 'Catch Me if You Can' or 'Volcano Bowl' to drink. Service is great. Noise levels can get a bit loud but other than that this is an awesome spot!

First time eating at Ace, and we were not disappointed. We started with the firecracker wings and shrimp wontons. The wings surprisingly were not my favorite, but I'm not a huge fan of lemon grass, and the dish was very lemon forward in my opinion. The wontons were delicious!! Then we took advantage of Denver Restaurant week and ordered mushroom dim sum, lamb noodles and mango ice cream with some sort of rice pudding underneath. The food and service were impressive, and we wished we had extra time to get in a game or two of table tennis before heading to our next engagement. Next time!!

I am sad to say that our experience was not great. We had a group of 6. We have been here before and had a great experience. It has been awhile. This time our waitress would leave before taking the full order every time she came by. She would take one persons drink or food order and walk away. And it took a really long time to get our drinks. The Brunch menu was mostly fried food. Greasy food and too much sugar in the sauces. It would be great if there was even one healthy option. Even the Brussel sprouts were too sugary sweet. I love the atmosphere but we were very disappointed. We all felt like we had a greasy bomb in our stomachs when we left. A plus were the $7 Highballs at Happy Hour. Loved the Bourbon and Ginger. Great value and super tasty.

We usually love Ace Eat Serve. But, we made a reservation for inside and still were sat on the patio with our toddler in the cold. We asked for it to be changed and they just said “it’s really warm with the heaters.” It wasn’t and they were out of the hot sake! I was hoping that would at least warm me up. Also, love the Brussels sprouts but they were undercooked this time. Like I said, we usually have a good experience but this time was less than. Probably won’t be back for awhile.

Great food and a fun atmosphere! Enjoyed the Brussels and shishito peppers and the bao buns. Hot sake was also delicious. We appreciated the good service and the place was hopping. There is ping pong in the back which is cool, but even if you eat there it’s still $20/hour to play so that’s a bit of a bummer.

Absolutely love Ace and had a great time and great food. My only complaint is actually with Open Table. We made 6:00 reservations and Ace had to call us the day of to tell us there is a private event until 6:30 and they had no idea how Open Table let us book. Thank goodness they called and worked with us to get us in and told us to come around 6:30. We had been looking forward to it and would have been very disappointed if we could not have gone. Thank you, Ace!
