Reviews
When you look at the menu, it’s listed in mandarin and English. However, you don’t see photos of the food items, you are not sure what you are ordering, so my suggestion is to pull up their website and look at the photos. There, you can see what each item looks like.
My combination #1 consists of the pepper bun filled with meat, the youtiao, and instead of getting soy milk that is included with the combo meal, I upgraded to the soft tofu. I also ordered a soft boiled egg.
The youtiao was really good, so eat it while they are hot. The egg was nothing special, so I won’t get it next. What I enjoyed eating were the pepper pork bun and the soft tofu. Biting into the bun with the seasoned ground pork reminded me of eating at a dim sum place, but better. The quality of this item was exceptionally good. Juice from the meat dipped on my hand. Very filling too.
I divided my tofu by making it savory and sweet. Although I enjoyed eating the savory option, the ginger-sugar syrup is how I would end my meal at a dim sum place.
The constant flow of people coming and going here makes the place busy. However, plenty of seats for those who want to dine in, and fast service for those who just want to order to go.
Plenty of light, nice decorations, and the place is very clean. Workers are constantly busy wiping down the tables, sweeping the floor, and making this eatery a great place to have a meal with family or meeting up with friends to catch up what’s happening.
The menu was quite simple: soy milk, sweet shaobing (sesame flatbread), scallion shaobing, pepper cakes, youtiao (fried dough stick), pepper bun, rice roll, soft tofu, and their new egg custard.
They used only fresh and natural ingredients and made fresh in store the traditional way without adding any additive.
Ordered soy milk, youtiao, pepper bun, and soft tofu, rice roll and the egg custard.
The youtiao here was crispy, not greasy, and had a satisfying texture, probably the best in town.
The soy milk was served plain, customers could add sugar or salt to taste. The plain soy milk was rich, with a delicate soybean flavor.
The soft tofu was also served plain, allowing custmers to add their own seasonings. The soft tofu here was also very good, smooth, tender, and fragrant. Pairing with pickled mustard greens, scallions, seaweed, and soy sauce, it was more flavorful and tasted better than the one with syrup.
Their purple rice roll was soft, sticky, and chewy, steamed to perfection, not soggy or dry. Pairing with crispy and savory fillings, it offered a rich texture.
The pepper bun’s meat filling was tender and juicy, not greasy nor dry. The black pepper and scallion complemented the filling’s savory flavor well.
The egg custard has a texture reminiscent of chawanmushi. Not sure what broth they used, but it’s delicious and soothing.
Joy Lounge opens Saturdays and Sundays from 8 to noon. Anyone looking for traditional Chinese breakfast in town, this is the place to go. The address is 9666 E Arapahoe Rd, Greenwood Village
The rice rolls are another standout: soft, slightly chewy, and wrapped with fillings like pork floss, or pickled veggies. Everything tastes homemade and balanced—not overly salty, just really comforting.
I think they recently added pepper bao zhi (steamed buns with pork inside). Nice strong pepper taste but not overpowering. Very yummy
My personal favorite was the relatively simple soft tofu bowl; adding some green onion and spicy sauce makes this sooooo good.
Service is quick, prices are super reasonable, and the vibe is casual. If you’re craving some Chinese breakfast nostalgia, this place delivers.
Joy Lounge is a weekend only breakfast popup situated inside Chilgogi and they’re fantastic!! Their soy milk & tofu are made fresh, and are perfectly balanced in silky, nutty flavor. You can season them sweet or savory as you prefer, and it makes for the perfect breakfast.
They recently added pepper meat buns to the menu, which is akin to the night market ones you’d see in Asia! It tasted so similar to what we know from Taiwan – super good and worth grabbing to enjoy with tofu.
Their youtiao is also handmade and just flawless. Airy, crispy, yet chewy and soft on the interior. I always take one to go with a cup of soy milk when I visit!
Everything’s made from scratch. Went with 4 adults and 2 kids and tried most of the menu. The youtiao (it’s like an airy fried breadstick) was incredible – that perfect crispy outside and fluffy inside. Had it with sweet soy milk, though you can get it savory if you want.
Loved the soy marinated eggs and those savory rice rolls with purple rice and youtiao inside. The tofu pudding can be customized with different toppings – ginger syrup, pickled veggies, and such.
Good food, authentic flavors. If you want real Chinese breakfast in Denver, this is worth tracking down.
Staff was very friendly and helpful, giving us samples of both sweet and salty jianbing to try before we ordered.
The location is a bit difficult to find if you don’t know that it’s located inside the Chilgogi—they could benefit from putting up a sign on the outside of the building!
