Colorado's First Authentic Chinese Hotpot Restaurant!In China, one of the more popular ways to dine out with friends is to hit a hot-pot restaurant. At these often raucous halls, you order a bubbling cauldron of broth — in Sichuan, it’ll be spicy; northerners tend to like milder lamb broth — and then dump in a progression of thin slices of fat-ribboned meat, vegetables, mushrooms, tofu and noodles. Once everything is cooked, you fish out a morsel with your chopsticks and dip it in a custom made dipping sauce or maybe some sesame paste, eat it and then start all over. It’s an interactive experience like fondue, and a good way to while away several hours. Here at The Bronze Empire, we bring the interactive experience to you with the most authentic flavors, freshest ingredients and knowledgeable staff to help make sure your visit to our restaurant is memorable, delicious and most importantly, fun!

The server was good but almost too good. He checked on us soooo many times to where it was annoying. Not sure if that's the managers rules but sometimes when a waiter check on you too many times it feel like they want you out of there or your suspicious. So great service but tooooo much checking. I know its a hard balance but it started to become irritating.

We always love Acova but last night was particularly special because we introduced friends to this gem. Each of us had our own wonderful entrees and we enjoyed delicious apps amongst us (the diablo eggs are to die for). I have celiac disease and this restaurant's menu is 95% gluten free or gluten free option available, proving that gluten free does not mean sacrificing on flavor, quality or price! We highly recommend Acova to everyone, celiac or not.
