Mouthwatering Greek in Colorado Springs

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."

Opa Grill

"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!"

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."

Gyros Town

★★★★★ 4.6 (9)

"Love Gyros Town in Denver. So glad they opened one in Littleton. Food delicious, and friendly service ordering my to go order. They are newly opened and renovated. I ordered the gyros entree and a side order of french fries. So good!"

Greek To Me

★★★★☆ 3.9 (279) • $$

"! , . . 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!"

Valley Inn Restaurant

Greek Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (116) • $

"Best Greek food in town! Such friendly staff and a clean, comfortable seating area.I've been coming here for years. I love their gyros and gyro salad. The baklava and nut roll are delicious, too. It's rarle"

Bold Restaurant and Bar

★★★★☆ 4 (555) • $$

"We came here as a bachelorette for brunch. The restaurant had a cozy ambiance. Food was delicious. The portions were large. So many gluten free options-- we were in heaven. Thank you for being so accommodating to GF diets. I got the smoked salmon Benedict and made it GF. The only thing I would caution about is the chai latte is really sweet & probably pre-made. It tastes sweeter than Thai iced tea!"

Pegasus Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.6 (321) • $$

"Great Greek and eggs breakfast ! I love the taste of this meal the restaurant has character. Make sure you plan for this spot and call ahead and or make a reservation or you'll be waiting !"

Jake & Telly's Greek Taverna

★★★★☆ 4 (582) • $$$

"We wanted some really good Greek food and Jake&Telly's came highly recommended. I got a pork Souvlaki sandwich because I've had a lot of lamb and chicken variants, but never seen pork. It was good, especially the flavor of the pork and the feta. We tried the meatball plate with pita and that was great. Our favorite, however, were the dolmades: the sauce that came with it was so good and we mopped it all up with the pitas, and the beef and rice in the grape leaves were great and paired well with it. I had a beer that was on tap and thought it was awesome, but I can't remember the name of it. After your meal you also get a shot.Reuben was our server and he was great. He had some good stories and brought out the final shot for us."

Grand Gyros

★★★★☆ 4.3 (69) • $

"A hidden gem! Came here based on a friends recommendation and it did not disappoint! The gyros were tasty. Definitely satisfies a craving if you like gyros. I got the gyros plate which was very filling. My husband ordered a gyro that included fries in the sandwich along with the usual fillings. He went on and on about this gyro and how good it was! There's also a kids meal available with gyro meat, fries, and a juice box. You can sub the gyro meat for chicken nuggets. The prices are very reasonable and the family who owns this restaurant is very friendly."

Chef Zorba's Cuisine

★★★★☆ 3.9 (352) • $$

"Definitely the best gyros in town.I've been coming here off and on for some time, and the experience is always spot on. Take out is quick and actually the same serving portion as dine in, which seems to be rare nowadays.Food is always solid, from breakfast to lunch to dinner. Gyros all day baby.Staff is pleasant and attentive, they seem to be happy working here and it shows.Burger is fine, not the best, not the worst. Wouldn't come here for the burgers though.Get the gyro breakfast platter or the sandwich.Bonus: darn good and spot on avgolemono soup, hits the spot every time and I always get a bowl no matter the time of day. Man, I want some now."

Mediterranean Cafe

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!"

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)."

Cafe Palooza - DTC

★★★★★ 4.9 (13)

"I've gone twice now, first time we just went for dessert and ate in and the ice cream and the lemon crème cake were delicious. Second time we opted for take out and their savory stuff was delicious, they have been so kind each time and prepared to explain the menu and items. Looking forward to going again soon."

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."

Greek Cafe

"Best Greek food hands down that we have had in Colorado Springs! We will definitely be back, highly recommend."

Peaks N Pitas

★★★★☆ 4.4 (10)

"I've tried the Souvlaki pita and the Shawarma and enjoyed both. The Souvlaki was my favorite and I ate the whole thing in one sitting which is rare for me. The chicken was tender and flavorful. I'm looking forward to trying all their recipes and am so glad we have this food truck in Salida!"

Byblos Express Greek & Lebanese

★★★★☆ 4.2 (100)

"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."

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."

The Athenian Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.4 (496) • $$

"I had some visiting friends come into town for lunch. So Athenian came to mind. I believe one of the nicest restaurants in Aurora not being a chain restaurant. I ordered my usual kitchen gyros sandwiche and lemon rice soup. I have to say though the gyros are filling and tasty I do love the soup. The service as always is pleasant and their Greek ambiance is always pleasant to see. I think I see something new each time as there are many hidden gems. Mind you this is the restaurant that cooked me a meal after closing because the closing times were incorrect online. Though I told them not to. They did anyway. Forever indebted."

Byblos Greek & Lebanese - Greenwood Village

★★★★☆ 3.6 (47)

"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!!"

The Purple Onion

"Old ark bar vibe restaurant for Mediterranean food. The platter (sampler) is very delicious. Ok service."

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!"

Pita Central

★★★★★ 4.9 (42)

"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!!!"

Gyros King & Pizzeria

★★★★☆ 4.2 (252) • $$

"I ordered the gyro combo; the meat was a mixture of lamb and beef. The tzatziki sauce was to die for! I got an extra side of the tzatziki sauce for my fries, and it was much better than dipping them and ketchup! I got their right as they opened. The place was very clean! And the weight staff was amazing! I would definitely return here 100%."

Gyroz

★★★★☆ 4.2 (269) • $

"This is the perfect post concert spot to grab a bit when you're feeling hungry. It's located right in between the Fillmore and Ogden so it can get quite busy at night (but so are the other nearby restaurants). Seating is limited and isn't always cleaned after a customer sits there but it's good when you're hungry.The food was delicious. The fries with the spice is just tasty on its own without any condiments. The gyro sandwich was very filling and every bite was even and very flavorful. The baklava ice cream was also super rich and creamy. Not overly sweet but just right."

Gyros Delish

★★★★☆ 4.2 (17)

"Apollo and Athena on a Saturday behind Broken Compass Brewery. Two fulfilling gyros with fresh, crisp and delicious ingredients. Apollo is the chicken gyro they have on the menu. Chicken had a crisp grilled to it, very enjoyable. The sauce was missing something.Athena is the beef gyro. Everything was delightful in this puppy. Nice big chunks of beef with plenty of delicious veggies. Fries came with gyros and they are ok. They are a plus because I was not expecting fries. Top notch gyros can't go wrong here."

"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!"
