If you're looking for a place that screams date night vibes but also says "let's split the bill because I'm still hungry," Nana's is your spot. The ambiance is top-notch. Dim lighting, cozy seating, and music that's just loud enough to drown out your awkward first-date banter or your friend's third retelling of that one story. Whether you're trying to impress a date or keep the group chat alive IRL, Nana's sets the stage. The drinks are good enough to make you forget that you're paying $18 for what is essentially a fancy Capri Sun with a garnish. The xiao long bao is decent. The rest of the dim sum is tasty, but the portions are pretty small (it's dim sum though, you can only get so much with one order). Service is where they shine. Attentive, friendly, and quick to refill your water after you've gulped it down trying to ration the last dumpling. Overall, Nana's is a solid four stars. Go for the vibes and the drinks, but maybe hit a drive-thru afterward unless you're cool dropping $$ for Instagram-worthy bites that won't exactly fill you up.

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 (Amanda was fantastic!) Ambiance: 5/5 (dark and moody, with red lanterns and dragon) I was cautious about the amount of hype this place was getting, but the hype is real! I waited a few months before checking this spot out (with hopes it wouldn't be too busy). Man was I wrong! Nana's was busy and doing great business! Making a reservation is your best bet. We called to make a reservation and the hostess on the line said we would be okay, but unfortunately we had to wait 2 hours for a table. ((There are local bars worth checking out nearby - which we did)) The wait was sooo worth it. Food was AMAZING! Hot & fresh with great flavor and surprisingly packed filling! We checked out the menu while waiting so by the time we got our table we knew exactly what to order. The food came out with great timing, as we would finish one order of dumplings another round would come. We ordered a lot (we love to eat) but here is our Must try: Stir Fried Green Beans, Szechuan Chicken, and Truffle Soup Bun (if you don't mind truffle) Amanda was our server and was fantastic! She was attentive and personable. And we didn't have to ask for a thing!

I've been wanting to try to this place so I was happy that they moved quickly on a Thursday night and we got our table within 20 min. We arrived and got street parking nearby. We put our names in and they took our number. We hovered in the doorway area but also found a back hallway to hangout and wait since it was freezing outside. Once sat, our server was right over and quick. We paper a paper to fill out what we want to order since they hang it by the table to verify we get everything. We were overly excited and ordered a ton for 4 people. They suggest 2-3 items per person and we did about that and we had leftovers! Let's see if I remember everything we got. We got basic soup dumplings (xiao long bao) and the spicy chicken soup dumplings, edamame, calamari, shrimp fried rice, Szechuan chicken, veggie egg rolls, crab wontons, green beans, and spicy cucumbers. Also, got to try the pork and chive dumpling. Ok, so service is great. Our waitress was friendly. They cleared our table quickly. She was super friendly. I loved everything I ate. The xiao long bao can compete with Din Tai Fung (IYKYK). Spicy soup dumplings were flavorful - I could've done without. Pork and chive dumpling were good and full. The calamari breading was great - it was like panko crumbs and super crunchy - yum. The Szechuan chicken was under starters but it was a big portion. Crispy and super flavorful too. Crab wontons - prob best I've ever had!! Green beans were good but why are they so expensive for what it is? The fried rice was delicious. I would for sure get it again - fluffy and good. My least fave was probably the egg rolls. They were good but pretty basic. All and all - I would say - I understand the hype. The food was awesome. The service was great. The prices are a bit high compared to other places that are similar though.

I had my hesitations when Nana's first opened that it would serve up authentic flavors compared to some of the other no frills places, but I have to say, it's my go-to so far for xiao long bao (xlb/soup dumplings). Out of all the places I've tried, Nana's has the thinnest skin and has great soup filling. I've found that XLBs in Colorado tend to be thicker and I've always attributed that to the altitude making it difficult to get it the right thickness, but Nana's does it right. Some things I have really enjoyed here are the regular soup dumplings, pan fried soup dumplings, string beans, and beef noodle soup. I also liked the beef pancake rolls and garlic beef (think sliced beef in the traditional cold cut plates). Definitely suggest making a reservation on Yelp as I've seen people waiting even on Wednesday evenings.

This is a family fav! We've gone a couple times and always go back for specials occasions. This last time we tried the salt and pepper shrimp for the first time and I've been thinking about it for a week now! So good. The service is kind and quick. They bring out items and they are finished cooking so everything is fresh! The ambiance is so cute. The lighting is great and everything is picturesque

Soup dumplings the best thing ever. They have great selections but I highly suggest getting more than one order of the soup dumplings

I want to love and hate you - bc when I think of dim sum ... I need pushy carts with old ladies yelling at me in Cantonese. I need that rush when I sit down and service with tea and all the dim sum at your figure tips in an instant. But - Nana is where you go to get some sexy dim sum. Don't get me wrong - u come here for some fancy cocktails and dim sum.. but the dim sum is not bad, actually pretty good. They have a show of Asian people making dim sums in a window kitchen for you to feel like it's authentic. But - I kinda like this upscale approach to dim sum. Dim sum should be elevated and at these prices vs Federal... I better be paying for some atmosphere. The service is slow and they do not take reservations for small parties . Make sure you get on the Yelp waiting list app. There is a line like immediately when they open...

I was excited to eat at Nana's as I had heard such great reviews from friends. Overall, we had a great experience and really enjoyed this restaurant. To start, I ordered the jade empress which was a well balanced gin cocktail and probably my favorite part of the meal. We also ordered the cucumbers, green beans, wontons, a variety of dumplings, and xiao long bao. The cucumbers and xiao long bao were the stars. The dumplings were tasty, but the wrapper was a bit thick for my preference. The ambiance is best for a fun night out with friends!
