He said he was indeed open for business, and he had just gone to Morocco for a while. So I'm giving a one-star deduction for no mention of this anywhere, no signs on the door, no website updates, nothing. That's why I thought they had closed for good. But I'm glad they are back and I will be too, since I enjoyed the food when I visited previously. Better communication would be a very good thing though.

They were served with a cucumber tomato salad with a deliciously light dressing. This salad, the tabbouleh and falafel were highlights for me. The falafel was fried fresh so it was light and fluffy inside but crispy outside. The shawarma and gyro meat were tasty too. My only complaint was that I wish there was more cauliflower on the vegetable plate. The decor is fun with vibrant couch cushions for the booths. We noticed most people came to pickup takeout orders, but service was good for our dine-in experience. I look forward to returning to try the shawarma pita and hopefully learn more about the business!

The food is always fresh, flavorful, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. Everything we've tried has been excellent, portions are generous, and the service is always friendly and welcoming. The ambiance is also a big part of why we like coming here. It feels warm, clean, modern, and comfortable, and it works just as well for a casual lunch as it does for a nice dinner with family or friends. What I really like about Asli is that it feels authentic and consistent. The grilled meats are full of flavor, the sides are fresh, and everything tastes like it was made with care. Asli is definitely one of those local places that deserves more attention. Great food, great service, great atmosphere, and a restaurant we keep coming back to. Highly recommend Asli Mediterranean Grill if you're looking for great Mediterranean food in the Denver area.

This place is definitely overhyped. Here is how my takeaway experience today went…read more Upon entering, I was warmly greeted by one of the young men upfront. The restaurant inside was quite clean and well-maintained. I liked the simplicity in the dining interior. This was a nice start. And yet.... The menu - Quite small and limited. The laminated menus were at the register so I glanced at it. As I didn't see much on one side, I flipped it to see if there was anything on the back. There was nothing. I first thought that I would order a few things from the appetizer section but it didn't seem like it would be the most economical way so I turned my attention to the "The Real Deal": entree section. And oh boy, everything is/was so expensive unless you would order as a pita. For instance, the Shawarma Chicken is $21 as a pita, $25 as a baguette and $32 as a plate; the Ribeye Skewers is $34 as a pita, $37 as a baguette and whopping $42 as a plate. What?? Seriously?? After seeing these insanely high prices, I had no choice but to go with one of the cheapest items: Sabich (plate). I had no clue what Sabich was so I asked the young guy what that came with. And he said it's eggplant and eggs. Okay, sounds good I thought. I am a plate person so I went with that and it is/was $26. I'm not trying to be stingy here and yet after tax and tip, the total was $35. This is like ordering a good-portioned plate with some meat in it. At that point, I sure was crossing my fingers for the quality to be excellent or at least good. Sabich wasn't bad. It's a vegetarians plate where well-seasoned carrots, purple cabbage, eggplant and (hard-boiled) eggs (2) were placed in a round container. It came with a deliciously dense pita bread and oh my lord, French fries!! I have seen it where one of the accompaniments in a Middle Eastern or Mediterranean plate were French fries at least a few times in the past and this is a big no no or turn off for me. Why French fries?? Can they not put tabbouleh or hummus or something more closely associated with the very cuisine?? Or am I being picky or snobby here? As soon as I got to my car, I immediately started digging into the food (I had a yoga class to attend so hence the late lunch in my car.) Sabich is/was "okay" at its best. As I have already stated, the pita bread was delicious. Also, the two sauces that came with the dish were quite decent (I especially liked the yellow one) but other than that, this wasn't a dish I could rave about it. And the portion size wasn't that generous either. And I paid $35 for all of this? I feel like I wasted my money on something that was simply and painfully overpriced. Ugh.... I don't think I will return to this establishment. The only reason why I am giving this place a 3-star review is because of the pleasant young man upfront. His warm smile and meaningful "thank you" when he handed me my food were the only memorable things I could think of.

I wish they had the gyro on the menu or maybe it was called something else because I definitely would've gotten that. The type of pizza I got was packed with spices. I wasn't a huge fan of it. The mouth feel of all of the spices was pretty and unpleasant, the flavor however was nice. I did wish there was something to break up all of the grittiness. The flatbread that it was served on was pillowy soft, an amazing to bite into. I think I could give them another chance. I just think ultimately the Syrian pizza was not for me.

Every bite was balanced with the coolness from the hummus and lightness of the rice. We were treated to a sample of the Turkish coffee. Wow, I was pleasantly surprised how light and aromatic it was.

Parking was right out front, air conditioning felt great, we were greeted warmly and handed the menus and two large glasses of ice cold, refreshing water. We shared two appetizers of falafel and yogurt dip, fresh pita with a garlic roasted eggplant tapenade, saffron rice, wonderfully roasted chicken and beef kabob with grilled tomato and japapeno on the side. Gotta say, the food was delicious and prepared to perfection! We were both satisfied immensely and for some reason, we had room for the homemade Persian ice cream with spices and grated pistachio.
