MAKfam is primarily a walk-in restaurant that offers limited reservations for weekday lunches only. The majority of our tables are open for walk-ins – please come in even if you don’t see availability at your preferred time.

MAKfam is a love letter to the owners' Chinese American roots, both having been raised by immigrant families who worked in restaurants. It began as a pop-up in NYC & NJ, then evolved as a stall in a Denver food hall. MAKfam is now an elevated counter-service restaurant in the Baker neighborhood serving award-winning Chinese food, natural wines, & craft cocktails. Crab Rangoons & hand-folded chicken & chive potstickers are inspired by Chinatown favorites, made with particular care & big flavor. Chicken wings with tingly málà seasoning & corned beef fried rice offer a familiar-yet inventive take on classics.

MAKfam is a 2024 Michelin Guide Bib Gourmand winner & Chef Kenneth Wan is the Semi Finalist in the 2024 Emerging Chef category of the James Beard Foundation.

  • Reclaiming Denver’s Chinatown

    Feb 6, 2025 only
    MAKfam proudly announces Reclaiming Denver’s Chinatown, a Lunar New Year fundraiser dinner on Thursday, Feb. 6, from 5 to 10 p.m., supporting Colorado Asian Pacific United (CAPU). CAPU is dedicated to uncovering and celebrating Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) histories in Colorado. 30% of the evening’s proceeds will go toward CAPU’s efforts, including preserving the history of Denver’s forgotten Chinatown, once a vibrant community in the late 1800s. The dinner features a special Lunar New Year menu blending Chinese American and Cantonese-inspired dishes and a Baijiu-focused cocktail program.
