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.

I sneezed on myself and was covered in slime, but when i asked him for a tissue, he told me to go to the Ethiopian restaurant next door because i was eating their food.

These people are not for the community - they are for themselves. Disgusting that you would double down on your actions. Curses upon you and your business.

The mint tea was delicious, and we received refills without even asking. There were pretty murals and ambient lighting around the restaurant. It's on the smaller side, but it doesn't feel cramped - just comfortable and welcoming! Each plate of food was cooked perfectly and had plenty of flavor and great serving sizes. Our two friends and my husband and I ate our fill and still had plenty of leftovers to take home. There wasn't one disappointing plate out of everything we ordered. I think our overall favorite was the kefta tajin! We will definitely be back again, and we can't wait to try more dishes at Cafe Paprika.

We got the grape leaves, baba ghanoush, and meat combo plate. The grape leaves were (3/5) because i liked how vinegary they were but the rice was a tad overcooked and I found a hair rolled in one of mine....... Baba (4.5/5) because it had a great flavor! Meat combo (3.8/5) because the chicken was a bit hard and dry but the lamb kebab was good and so were all the sides it comes with. The chicken just didn't quite have the charcoal flavor that i love. Overall, I'd consider coming back because i love supporting small, local, businesses. But our total was quite pricey to find a hair in the food and for hard chicken.

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.

I checked Yelp and The Athenian had excellent reviews, so we stopped here for lunch. The restaurant has nice Greek decor, a smoking room, and a lot of inside seating. We were greeted and seated right away. We ordered the Athenian Platter for two, which came with either your choice of a side salad or lemon chicken rice soup. The platter was huge and filling! The flavors were excellent. We both loved the veggies, baked chicken, and sausage and peppers. I don't know how the hell they did it (I'm assuming they premade the platter and reheated the food) but the platter came out very quickly. Everything tasted great and I would definitely go back.

I had an amazing dining experience at Safta!…read more The wine list is well curated, both the BTG and bottle list was impressive. We chose an Areni wine, the Yacobian Hobbs. I was excited to try after watching a documentary on the Somm channel about that specific winemaker. The wine was delicious. Additionally, I was so happy to see small boutique wine from the Santa Barbara area like Amevive and A Tribute to Grace. Our server Yvonne guided our menu choices thoughtfully and enhanced our experience with excellent service. We started with watermelon feta salad with baby cilantro, walnuts, and harissa oil. The watermelon was cool, sweet, and crisp and the flavors balanced perfectly. If you are a pickle lover you must get the pickles. I think I will be dreaming of them. The pickled cabbage, okra, califlower and snap peas were just the best! The pitas were puffy, but not hollow, and warm. There was also an olive oil dipping sauce that complemented everything. Star of the show for me was the forgaged mushrooms and hummus. These were the most delicious mushrooms and snoothest hummus I have ever experienced, and I think there might be magicians in the kitchen. Our other dishes were cabbage and eggplant. Both taste explosions, done masterfully with a sauce, color and texture. This food is truly incredible, highly recommend. I am in Denver for work, anytime I travel back to Denver I will for sure return to Safta.

Coffee was fine but they gave such a large cup and it got cold right away and we felt bad for asking for refills when we still had a good amount left but cold. Lines weren't bad at all on a Sat morning. Basic American fruit/yogurt, bread, pastries. Deviled eggs. Prime rib was good The different types of sauces like baba ghounash, hummus, etc-- those were all really good mixed together with pita bread. Mediterranean salad was good. Cabbage was meh this time. No honeycomb this time :( :( :( I did not like ANY of the desserts. Neither did my partner. So I just had normal fruit/yogurt for dessert which seemed wasteful. Everything else was kind of just meh to me. Not worth the $65/person (with tip and tax). They also include a 5% surcharge on the bill.
