A Favorite of Denver Broncos Players, Aurora Fried Chicken Restaurant is Closing

May 12, 2023, 5:03 PM

This Denver restaurant closing trend is getting out of hand! Another popular spot, this one in Aurora, is closing…

Von’s Chicken, a Korean fried chicken restaurant, announced it “decided to close down” its business on South Peoria Street and East Iliff Avenue in Aurora.

The restaurant that opened in 2019, was a favorite of Denver Broncos players, with autographs of many players on a wall of the restaurant.

The good news is from the sounds of their message to patrons, this may not be permanent. In part, the message reads, “Thank you for being with our restaurant in all its ups and downs. We wish you all the best for your continued success. We will see you at a new location later.”
