P & Y Cafe

I fell in love at first bite. I ordered the jjahangmyeon, well to be fair...I was on a mission to have some and was recommended P & Y. The menu is short and sweet, while still having some variety. The food at least what I've tried was absolutely delicious. The service was incredibly friendly and very quick. The restaurant is cute and clean. I can't wait to come back.

Black bean noodles (jjangmyeon) and Spicy Seafood noodle soup (jjambbong) are classic Korean-Chinese fusion dishes that are regularly eaten on special occasions such as: moving into a new house/apartment, graduations, or other school related events. It's a comfort food, so I was craving it this weekend and tried this place out! The noodles here are flat and thick! Super soft and chewy. The portions here are pretty big!! The sauce is a bit gelatinous but it works well with the slight dampness of the noodles. The Sweet and spicy shrimp dish had good flavor but it wasn't as crunchy as I was expecting. It honestly kind of seemed like it was fried a couple hours ago and then mixed with their spicy sauce. The shrimp itself wasn't dry but the coating was. The owners here are super sweet and nice. If you are craving black bean noodles and you're in Aurora - definitely check this place out! I have heard that P&Y is probably the best black bean noodles you'll get around here and I'd have to agree!

Some of the best korean Chinese food in Denver. Service and atmosphere is pretty basic, but the chef is a real Chinese chef cooking up authentic food.The combo fried rice is unlike fried rice from anywhere else and downright addictive. You can taste the wok sear on it, and the meat is perfectly prepared and juicy.The jja jjang myun is pretty good. I've had better, but the ingredients are fresh and this dish is pretty close to perfection. Sweet and savory, these noodles in black sauce is one of the most popular Chinese dishes in Korea.Jjam ppong is awesome, but I always upgrade here and go for the premium seafood version. It's so worth it, with the piles of fresh scallops, squid, mussels, and shrimp. This is delightfully spicy and well-made.And finally, I always get the tang soo yook (sweet and sour pork). They do it so well with perfectly fried chunks of meat and tasty sweet and sour sauce. Way better than typical American Chinese sweet and sour sauce.If you get a chance, eat on site. When you take this food home, it's still awesome, but it's even better when you eat it there, freshly prepared. When dining there, don't be surprised if they bring you the sweet and sour pork right away without any rice (it doesn't come with rice) before anything else. It's a Chinese custom, and from their own perspective, not doing this would be rude of them.

I went back to try the 삼성짜장면 (seafood black bean noodles) and I was disappointed. It was bland. I so wanted it to be good .

Time is often treated as a teacher, an innovator and ....in this case it has not done anything to this spot:The food was simply underwhelming, spicy and deep fried to its deathThe Szechuan Beef - was spicy and was like chewing bits of deep fried rubber.The garlic shrimp: (although tasted like the beef was better but .... Meh)The Tofu with Pork was the best thing from what was ordered and yet still a 2/5 ...Overall, between listening to the Korean Soap opera from the table behind us at full volume to mediocre service just not really a spot we would recommend or will return to. Kind of disappointed.

If you want a twist on Chinese food, why not try a Korean spin on it? This is a no frills restaurant and you'll see on the menu there are some dishes you may recognize while others might not be so familiar. Service here was pretty good and no issues there at all, This place is known for their jjajyangmian, which is a noodle dish with a bean paste sauce and has meat in it like diced pork, or chicken. I definitely enjoyed that dish there and it had a good balance of sweetness, and salt, definitely had a good depth of flavor as well.

Quick easy and didn't have a giant watered down menu. Just a hand full of things they do well. We had tang soo yuk and jjajangmyeon. It came out quick and good.

I was looking for some jjajangmeyun and happened to come across P&Y. I thought the vibe in the restaurant was great. No frills, just simple good food. We ended up going with gan-jjajang and tang su yuk. The gan-jjajang was really tasty and not oily, like I've seen in some other places. Most tang su yuk I have tends to be a little dry, but I'd have to say that theirs was still juicy and well seasoned. The owner was really nice and and was very attentive. I knew what we were looking for, which was the stir fried version of jjajangmyeon, but couldn't remember the name of it. He was even nice enough to take the time to answer my questions and explain the words. It's been a long time since I worked in Koreatown in LA, so it was definitely appreciated. We'll be coming back here again for sure.

Family owned business. Service was a little slow. Not many employees. 2 in front and maybe 3 in the kitchen. Ordered the Jjamppong noodle. Came with a good portion of shrimps, mussels, and squids. Also all the shell of the seafood has been removed which is more convenient to eat compared to other places that include the shell. Soup was hot in terms of temperature so it's perfect during the chilly and cold weather. Not spicy tho. Noodle was smooth with a good texture. The veggies soaks up all the flavor so very tasty. Also gives a side of kimchi and pickled radish when you sit down. Highly recommended trying this place!

I've been to a couple of Korean Chinese restaurants in the past few years and this place had the best jjajangmyeon/jjampong/tangsuyuk combo. The jjampong had plenty of seafood (so much shrimp!) and the broth had a deep and mildly spicy flavor. The tangsuyuk tasted just like how my mom makes it at home and it had a crispy, thin breading that I appreciated. At other places, I've been disappointed because they would have tangsuyuk with hard, thick breading and very small pieces of meat. Not here! The jjajangmyeon was also very good.I don't usually write reviews but this was the best Korean Chinese food I've had in a while and it deserves a visit or two if you're in the area.
