Yahya's Mediterranean Grill & Pastries

★★★★★ 4.6 (624) • $$

"This is a very good Mediterranean Restaurant. I ordered the Lamb Kebobs for an entree and almond baklava for desserts.The entree came with a very good side salad, hummus, pita bread, rice and vegetables. The lamb was cooked perfectly, and all the side items were delicious.The baklava portion was enormous and delicious. I recommend sharing the baklava, if you are not dining alone.This restaurant is located in Downtown Denver, it was easy to find parking."

Pete's Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.8 (898) • $$

"A local favorite and a historical location, this spot seems like it has maintained its hole-in-a-wall stature, interior is old and worn off. Despite that the place has lots of recognition and accolades displayed on their wall. But the outdoor seating they have, looked so new and modern, best part of the restaurant.The breakfast items we tried were okay. Lemonade was decent. Pancakes were not so good. Service is okay. Dishes came out within a short time. We were happy to have checked mark this iconic spot but probably not the best experience we imagined."

Cafe Byblos Greek & Lebanese

★★★★☆ 4.1 (660) • $$

"I second my original review and say that the gyro meat is phenomenal! I will also say that the portions can be bigger, but it's because I love it so much that I just want more. All the sampler platters are a must order. I have not physically been to the restaurant, but I have gotten it delivered to my home and work on multiple occasions and delivery is always quick. Whenever I get my delivery, I'm always worried that they will mess up my order, but that has never happened here."

Caspian Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (535) • $$

"This was my first time dining at Caspian Cafe. I was very surprised at how busy it was for a Monday evening! There is a wraparound parking lot with plenty of parking spaces available. Caspian Cafe is a family run restaurant. It's close to the highway (I-25) at the Garden of The Gods exit. I made a reservation for a Monday evening dinner and feel fortunate that I did. Again, surprised at how busy it was for a weekday. So, I do recommend reservations. My waitress was very friendly and personable. She told me that it was her second shift since starting employment there. I noticed some "rookie" mistakes. However, I feel that she did a great job. I was most impressed with how friendly she was. My waitress was also knowledgeable about entree options on the menu and they do have a variety to choose from! I was set on the Persian Chicken but changed my mind after the waitress told me that the Lamb Tangine with Apricots is delicious and that she has tried it before. So glad that I settled on the Lamb Tangine because it was delicious!! The portion size is plenty and will fill you up. Be careful not to fill up on bread with olive oil and vinegar for dipping. Also, I recommend an appetizer. I chose Baba Ganoush. It's served with small pieces of pita bread. Their Baba Ganoush isn't bad. I've had better. I prefer a creamier BG. Theirs is chunky. I passed on dessert. They have some nice dessert options. I probably would've chosen a dessert if I wasn't running somewhat behind for an event in downtown Springs. Overall, my experience was fantastic here. I will definitely return for more delicious Mediterranean food. I love how this place is intimate and family run. My final bill of sale was reasonable as well. Check out Caspian Cafe id you haven't been here before. Also, if you're passing through town or traveling to another destination, this isn't a bad option at all. If you have time to spare, get off on this exit, kick back and relax to enjoy some quality Mediterranean food. I hope you will be pleased with your experience here.Very much looking forward to my next visit!"

Gyroz

★★★★☆ 4.2 (501) • $$

"Happened to be nearby and great choice for dinner. Ordering was super easy at the drive thru, got the gyro sandwich and salad with gyro added. There is so much food for the price. I m so used to paying higher prices at the mall and had to double take on the price. $7.95 for gyro sandwich, $12.50 for gyro with salad.The gentleman who handed me the bag was super friendly and told me to " safe drive home." What a nice gesture.Judging from the amount of food, just the Greek salad with meat added will be plenty for two people (light eater)."

Opa Grill

★★★★☆ 4.1 (421) • $$

"As you can tell by the plethora of reviews, this is a spot to drop into. My favorite local restaurant in all of Parker, Colorado in addition to JuJu's Coffee! Consisent high quality Greek food at a more than fair price. EXCELLENT!"

The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill

★★★★☆ 4.1 (390) • $$

"We needed a light simple dinner on our last day at the nearby hotel. We walked over to this Greek fast casual place. We have eaten lots of Greek food. These were simplified versions that were acceptable. The staff was friendly, the place was not yet busy and Orion's were stopping by for take out . It's simple inside but clean and cheery. Very modest prices. A few people came in who seemed to be regulars. We were not very hungry but did want a tasty small option. We split a "Great Greek Gyro." The staff made it quickly and cut it for us and gave us separate plates for no up charge. Very accommodating. We also bought some good quality bottled unsweetened ice tea which was fine. Craving some ice cream for a few days my husband picked some from the menu . I wanted something else so we got the assorted dessert plate. A good sized dish of baklava flavored ice cream, a bowl of house made rice pudding and pieces of baklava. That worked out quite well for balance.What was not ideal was the style of the food. The meat in the gyro, though traditional lamb and beef was somewhat tough , the tzatziki was a bit watery and not a cucumber slice in sight, though the lettuce and tomato was. Unusual to not have any cucumber . My husband thought the ice cream just right. I thought the rice pudding too milky and not thick but flavor was good with lots of cinnamon. The baklava was also pretty wet and the phyllo too pale by what I usually buy or am served. I may be a bit picky but I have had lots of high quality home made Greek food. My next door neighbor was born in Greece and makes fantastic baklava. But for fast casual this met the needs of the day. If they could tweak their cooking style a bit, it would be a little better."

Yianni's Gyro Place

★★★★☆ 4.2 (292)

"The place was packed on a weekday for lunch. I see why. The food is good, filling, tasty and reasonably priced. Did I mention it is a family owned business -- it was clear to me, as I stood in line, there are a bunch of a regular customers. The place has clearly stood the test of time. As to the food, the gyros platter was exceptional, cooked perfectly, served warm and it hit the spot. Came with fries, Greek salad with Dolmas and freshly grilled pita. The falafel appetizer was alright -- way too much coriander than I expected or am accustomed to. Service was fast. Lots of take out orders. Lots of dine in. Yianni's is certainly worth a visit when you want to try Greek."

Kalita Grill Greek Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (241) • $$

"Kalita is a solid gyro spot with decent prices, great portions, and excellent flavor. I was impressed by the grilled chicken salad, which was juicy and had two full skewers of chicken. The baklava was laminated to perfection! While the gyro meat was good, it paled in comparison to the chicken. The kalita wrap comes with fries in it, which threw me off a bit. I loved the hot sauce and used it on my chicken salad, too."

Yanni's

★★★★☆ 3.7 (328) • $$

"If you love Greek food, Yanni's is a must try!Everything I ate was wonderful. The gyro meat flavorful, the tzatziki rich and creamy, fresh onions, tomatoes and cucumbers; I was in heaven. The portions of all the plates coming from the kitchen were huge! Yanni himself also came around with little plastic shot glasses to try a Greek liquor on the house! Our server kept us entertained the entire night as well.There's also paintings and wine scattered throughout the entire restaurant. A welcoming environment to create a delicious dinner.At around $30 a person, Yanni's isn't cheap but won't break the bank either and it is well worth it in my opinion."

Greek To Me

"! , . . If you're looking for real authentic Greek this is the place! Run by a Greek family, you can't get any better than this! Don't forget to order baklava and say Yasou!"

Gyros Town Restaurant

★★★★★ 4.5 (194)

"It had gotten late and we were so hungry. We selected this restaurant because they appeared to be open until 10 PM. When we said we wanted to dine in, we were told they were closing at 9:30. That still gave us ample time to eat. This place is along a row of international restaurants. Inside, it's not huge, but it's cozy and clean. The Gyros plate was large and came with a salad. The presentation was beautiful. The ingredients were obviously fresh, and the meal was delicious."

Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe - Hampden

★★★★☆ 4 (235) • $$

"Both hubby and I were wanting some veggie intake. He, a salad. I wanted a Mediterranean bowl. Found them both at Taziki's. It was so good.It's a bright, clean place with several offerings that fit our needs that day. Husband picked a Greek salad, which he declared "wonderful". I had a salad bowl with grilled shrimp -- very very good, though, beware -- the shrimp is more than a bit spicy.We look forward to going back to try some of the other interesting menu items."

Oscar's Kabob & Gyros

★★★★☆ 3.8 (248) • $$

"Such fantastic service!!!! Hubs n I stopped for a special treat lunch. He ordered the Gyro Platter and I had the chicken gyro platter. We also ordered a hummus side. Everything was super fresh, super fast and super delicious. We also grabbed a chicken gyro sandwich for the daughter to go. Can't write more right now but I do love this place."

Spitz - Greenwood Village

★★★★☆ 4.3 (183) • $$

"This place is great! Came here with some coworkers and so happy we did. This place has incredible food and is hoppin! Lunch was busy by 1145, so get there by 1130 during a weekday lunch. They have indoor and outdoor seating and it was so nice. I got the medi bowl with lamb which was a great size and super tasty. I could only eat half. They accidentally gave us fries and yum!! I will bring my husband here now because I know he is going to want to try their gyro. Highly recommend!"

Tzatziki's

★★★★☆ 4.2 (179)

"This tiny Greek/Lebanese restaurant opened 15 years ago is what I heard from Kal, the manager onsite (in charge) with whom I interacted when I went there past 6:30 to place a to-go order. I had passed by this restaurant umpteen times in the past. Why did it take so long before I finally got a chance to try it is definitely a question I asked myself today. It's okay; I patted my shoulder that I finally went to check it out today after many years of procrastination!!Kal (I mentioned earlier in this review) is hilarious! He, first of all, welcomed me as soon as I stepped in the restaurant like a peppy/talkative macaw! Once I knew what I wanted, I walked up to the register and told him my choice of plate. Unfortunately, the restaurant was about to close so he told me they had run out of the tabbouleh that was part of the plate. Too bad! I decided to go with one of the sandwiches (something easygoing) instead and a side of grape leaves dolma (4 pieces). While I was waiting for my food, Kal and I talked more. He asked me about my cultural background and this led us to talk about fresh seafood as I'm from Japan and he used to live in Boston. He definitely made me laugh; he entertained me like a stand up comedian!The food didn't take long. I waited for maybe 5 minutes at the tops. Kal said to order ahead (by calling in) next time and insisted me on taking the to-go menu as he truly wanted me to come back for the plate I couldn't get tonight. And the food?-Shawarma in a pita wrap (beef) was ridiculously delicious! The meat, lettuce and tomato were all impeccably marinated in the tzatziki sauce and is surprisingly so light despite the look of it. -Dolmas (4 pieces) - I've been to a similar restaurant where they serve dolmas and their dolmas were a bit too oily. This restaurant's dolmas are nothing like that. Perfect amount of oil makes their dolmas perfectly moist. This is now my go-to place for dolmas when I get a craving for it. I can't wait to go back and try other things on the menu!"

Naan Curry Grill

★★★★☆ 4 (195) • $$

"When I utilized this business a little while back, I really didn't have a great experience; it was mostly not so great service where the lady who assisted me had no friendliness in her facial expression or words she uttered. My daughter who recently got a takeout from here pretty much agreed with me when it came to service (although she absolutely enjoyed the food itself.) I, however, believe in giving people or businesses a second chance so I went here just the other night to get myself a quick dinner (to which my daughter accompanied me.) To my surprise, I had a much better experience this time. The male worker upfront immediately greeted us upon arrival; he was polite with professionalism. He didn't rush me in any way; he patiently waited until I knew what I wanted. Once I had told him what I wanted he immediately transacted the order to which I settled the tab. While I was waiting for my food, I took the time to look around the restaurant to notice everything inside the it. The restaurant was very clean. The long/skinny layout of it is somewhat modern. It also has a good size patio seating. All the way back to the end (east side of it) there is a party area/room. It appears it can possibly hold 30-40 people. There was a customer who dines here on a regular basis (he also identified himself a friend to the business owner) and he friendlily spoke to us as he noticed us when walked in. He was sort of acting like the spokesperson of the restaurant and he said to talk to the manager if we had any questions or problems with anything with this place as the manager/owner truly cares about their customers' needs and satisfaction. What a nice guys!! After 10-15 minutes, my food was finally ready. At home, I immediately started my meal. Let's get to the main topic of this review: the food!!!Vegetable samosas: my daughter made a recommendation on this. When it comes to samosas I like chunky/dense ones. This restaurant makes their samosas thin. They tasted good but I still like my samosas made chunky stuffed with all kinds of ingredients with more density. These are 7 out of 10.Kari Pakora: Lemony curry with a good amount of kick (its spiciness is quite noticeable.) Unlike other typical curries, this one is not as heavily stewed so the texture is closely resembling to soups (more like) so in that sense, it's a light curry. I've never had a curry like this and I dig this very much; 8.5 out of 10 (the rice that accompanied the curry had a lot of saffron in it. In a way, I like my rice more plain so that it's not too overpowering to kill the flavors of the curry. It wasn't bad though!)To conclude my experience this time, it was quite good; 8 out of 10 for everything I had experienced. This place definitely made the list of my favorite Indian restaurants in Denver for sure."

Uptown & Humboldt

★★★★★ 4.7 (96)

"Uptown & Humboldt is a special place. I've seen every iteration of them over the years. From food trucking and meal prepping to hotel brunching and food stalling, these cats have been ALL OVER the Greater Denver metro area sharing their culinary creativity with the masses.You'll be hard-pressed to find anyone kinder and more passionate about the community more than Gio and his business partner, Hayden. The ethos of Uptown & Humboldt stems from their travels around the world and their culinary adventures. The end result is nothing short of damn delicious food.The current menu revolves around their gyros and burgers. You can't go wrong with anything you try. The FMB and Berlin burgers are absolutely delicious. On my most recent visit I went with my favorite order: the Lamb Gyro and Yuca Fries. This combination is magnificent. The lamb tender and the gyro filling. The yuca fries somehow steal the show every time, with the garlic cilantro aioli in th running for most addictive side sauce in Denver.PRO TIP: wash it down with a Pineapple Basil Agua Fresca. It puts all other agua frescas to shame. Splurge on the drink, IT'S BEYOND WORTH IT.If you're at their food stall at Zeppelin Station, you'll be kicking yourself if you don't try anything from their newer tapas menu. The two standouts are the Truffle Manchego Croquettes and the Pistachio Whipped Feta. Just take my money and call it a day.If you find their food truck and they happen to be serving breakfast burritos, order one. Actually order seven. In the breakfast burrito-obsessed world of Colorado, theirs are TOP TIER. These are craveworthy. Like going out in a blizzard craveworthy!I'm one of Gio and Hayden's biggest fans. They've accomplished so much in a short period of time, but I have a feeling they have big things on their horizon. Wonderful people, excellent food, and a burning desire to do good in this world. If that isn't the recipe for success and happiness, I don't know what is."

"Love Byblos and never disappointed. The gyros are some of my favorite and don't sleep on the garlic dip as a side. Drool worthy! The baklava is also a great way to end the meal. Very easy to order online and the service is impeccable. Not only are the extremely fast, they are the absolute nicest!! Byblos, thank you for being such a great, tasty option in our neighborhood."

Gyros Plus at Chapel Hills

★★★★☆ 4.4 (84) • $

"I love Mediterranean food and used to eat it a lot in California. Sadly, Hawaii doesn't have many Mediterranean spots so when I came to the food court, I wanted to eat something healthy. All other food court spots look too greasy. I saw Mediterranean so I had to try it. I ordered the chicken pita with everything. The highlight of the dish is of course is the tender slicked chicken with great seasoning. However, the main kicker is that SAUCE. Oh my goodness, it is to die for. Guy working said it's him moms recipe and it has no msg, barely any salt. A lot of Mediterranean spots or wanna be spots has very thin consistency with their sauce but not here. Thick, dip your French fries and smother it all over your pita greatness. I had to add extra sauce so I could dip my fries in it. Wish we had this place in Hawaii. Absolutely delicious! Forget the other spots in the food court that'll make you feel nasty after you eat. This place is refreshing, made to order and great service. A plus in my book!"

Afghan Cheesesteak & Gyro

★★★★☆ 4.4 (53) • $$

"This is probably the best value you'll find for Greek food. The food is also better than most. Typically Greek is pretty expensive but there's a lot of options here under $12.The place itself is small, there's limited seating, and most of the table seating is only for two people. I saw a lot of people coming in and getting takeout.If you eat there, you simply order at the front desk and they will bring you your food. The food came quickly, the gyros was our favorite thing.I'll definitely be back.Happy eating!"

Pita Central

"Loved this place and it is only a few blocks from the Hampton Inn Speer Blvd.They have pork souvlaki, which is very hard to find in the United States. My wife loved the Greek Salad and I enjoyed the Gyro Combo with fries and drink. The fries have a wonderful seasoning, highly recommended.The owner is very friendly and he takes a lot of pride in his cuisine and we loved the background music.If we ever return to Denver, this is the first restaurant we would come back to!!!"

"Sad to see that this place is rated only 3.5 stars. In my opinion, it's a solid 4 stars to me. Inside of the restaurant never fails to show the care the employees put into its cleanliness. Service is always good. And the food quality? It solid no matter when I stop here to get food. I tend to get the same thing over and over: the Chicken Shawarma plate and Eggplant side dish. They gave us generous amount of pita bread to go with the both of them. I strongly recommend that you get food here during lunch because menu after lunch has hiked up prices for most of the items. Maybe this is the only downside of this restaurant?? If you pay by cash, you'll get a free baklava. What else can I say about this decent restaurant? Well, conveniently located in the busy DTC area where the surrounding schools (when they are in session) can send students to this place. Or workers from the nearby offices can grab a quick and quality Greek food. This place continues to be one of my go-to places. Lucky to live nearby!!"

Renzios Greek Food

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (35) • $$

"$16.70 for a gyro, salad and a drink is very steep. However if you spin around the food court at Park Meadows, you'll notice many unhealthy options until you see Renzio's! They're not the happiest there and they talk to you as if they have to be there. I guess you gotta make a buck some how.Regardless, the food is really good and if you request the tzatziki sauce on the side your gyro won't be drowning in big globs. The lamb meat is great and the salad with a light vinaigrette dressing does the trick! Inflation has done all sorts of things to the supply chain and the final product but at least Renzio's is consistent and that's why I keep returning."
