Negative Nancys! For what you pay, Falafel King is nice. I take Colorado south to work a few days a week and pick up a quick bite at Falafel King sometimes. The people working there are friendly, the food may not be 100% authentic but is tasty, and it's not nearly as bad as the whiners claim. Whoever the manager is nowadays, they're good, and I'm going to keep going to Falafel King for a quick, non-greasy dinner to eat at work. read more

Mixed review here. My food was really good. I got the mixed Jerusalem grill platter. My girl ordered a margherita pita-style pizza meal. My food and salad were up at the same time and my girl's salad was ready before the pizza. We went outside to eat and both finished our salads while we waited for a pizza that was supposed to take 5 minutes. 10 minutes later I walk in with that "what' going on look" and they're like, oops, we burned it. My girlfriend got so pissed she just decided to get it to go because I was practically finished. They made amends by hooking up some free baklavas though. 4 stars for the food. 2 stars for service. I'll probably go back sometime. read more

My husband and I both had the falafel platter which came with 6 small falafel balls (tee-hee, I said "balls"!), lots of hummus, a pita and a salad. The salad was nice and fresh. The falafel was average to meh. The hummus I enjoyed. All in all it fullfiled the need for food at the time and if I was in the area and was hungry would probably go again. read more

Ick. Grimy is the best word to describe my first impression. Food did not even register on the likeability scale, especially the wilted tabbouleh salad. read more

I feel like the owner of this place has given up. the downhill slide of the quality, cleanliness, and overall customer experience is horrible. even after paying extra for additional meat, I was still given tiny quantities when compared to garbanzos. the pita was old and dry. bummed, would rather give my money to a local place over a chain, but this place needs a complete revamp. will not be back read more

I just can't look at my review for Falafel King and believe I can't give it five stars.....but guess what? I am now! I just couldn't go on without Falafel King. Some may argue and that's fine. But I love this place. read more

Very tasty fresh falafel, favorite gyros. This is my favorite little lunch spot. I have come here many times and expect to keep coming back.

The food was okay to taste but it gave me food poisoning the next days Gyros were overpriced.

This place is ok but maybe they should rename themselves Falafel Serf? The interior is nicely decorated, although the chairs weight what feels like 50 pounds, so weaked armed people beware! I think they killed 5 trees for the lumber in that place. Anyway, it is a pretty inefficent sent up for ordering. They only had two staff running the front during lunch, which seemed pretty sparse. The food was well flavored but like another reviewer said they were sparse on protein. My friend ordered the tabouli as a side and she said it tasted like Thanksgiving stuffing. I ordered the Gyros plate and it did fill me up, but really wasn't anything to write home about. Your mom has probably eaten better tabouli in Iowa. read more

If you want the fast food version of Mediterranean food, skip this place and go to Garbanzo. We got our food to go and the box was dripping by the time we got to the car. But we ate it. It was relatively bland and the portions are tiny. There's lots of quick decent food in this part of Denver. No need to waste your time or money here. 2 stars only because of the nice large dining area that I didn't even use. read more

I just tried to go To falafel King as I parked the open sign was on brightly - I was there eight minutes before the posted closing time - I proceeded to the door and had an employee lock the door right in front of me then he walked to the back and turned off the open sign as I'm knocking on the door. Clearly he did not want my business so they will never again have my business. read more

I live in the neighborhood and absolutely love eating here. I have always found the food to be delicious, the service kind, and the restaurant clean. I noticed most of the bad reviews are relatively old, so maybe they're under new ownership or management. Whatever the reason, I think this place has turned a corner. I give it a high recommendation. read more

I really hate giving bad reviews but if you like a good gyro, do not order one from here. NO GOOD. I'm pretty sure they grabbed some pre-cooked-cut meat out of a box, heated it up in the microwave, and served it up as a gyro. If you're looking for a traditional gyro, run from this place. Charlie Browns kills this place. I truly wish I walked down to GOODTIMES or ordered a sub from one of our local sandwich joints. read more

Better than your average fast food. Although the falafels are decent, the best thing on the menu, I've found, is the chicken schwarma. The pita is beautiful - different from the falafel pita - thicker, soft and very fresh. The chicken is white meat, not gristly, and seasoned well, and you have your choice of salad toppings. The yogurt sauce they put on top is excellent. Overall a scrumptious meal. I miss having this falafel king across the street! read more

I know it's fast food, but is this the best that we can do? This is not good food. Will it sustain you enough to live? Sure. I'm looking for a bit more. I checked the online menu at Chef Zorba's, which is a great Greek place not far from the F King. The food was less expensive and infinitely better. The falafels, which they should be good at, at least according to the name, were bland and tasteless. If you like this place, my guess is you've never experienced good middle eastern food. This place is an embarrassment to pita's everywhere. read more

I love the falafel from Falafel King, it is really good. I generally buy the packaged ones at Vitamin cottage and make them myself, because I live about 45 minutes from this location. Several months ago my husband and I went into this location and got a falafel for me and we took it to the theater to eat it during a movie, I opened mine up and it had all kinds of veggies on it even though I asked for it without anything. I called the next day (they were closed when we left the movie) and the manager told me she would "put my name in the book for a free one" and "to come and get it whenever I was ready." Fast forward to this week when I finally made it back down there and went in for my beloved falafel. I was met by a very grumpy guy at the counter who eventually referred to himself as the owner. I told him about the previous situation and he basically called me a liar, he asked how he was supposed to believe me if I didn't know the manager's name that I spoke with and then made me argue with him for 5 minutes before finally telling me "you must have been in the restaurant business before, you have all of the answers" and telling the cook to make my falafel. I told this guy that I would never lie about having ordered something and that it wasn't like I was asking for free food, I paid for my last order that was wrong through no fault of my own but I guess he didn't care. I have never been called a liar by someone who I didn't even know, why the heck would I lie about a $7 meal? I was dressed professionally, it isn't like he thought I was some homeless chick trying to score free food. I had my credit card in my pocket, I could have easily paid. He was extremely rude and insulting, I will not set foot back in this location, I refuse to go somewhere that they treat people in this manner, you should respect your customers because without them you wouldn't have your business... obviously. If you care about how you are treated, don't pick this place. read more

Really good falafel balls, lamb is pre-cooked but also grilled before your eyes and put onto the freshest pita bread. The eggplant side was so so, especially since I had marinated mushrooms in mind but they were out. Definitely coming back. read more

Stopped in for a bite and everything was very good! The reviews are spot on.. I wish the falafels were double their size though... They are super delicious! read more

Huge portions here -- I usually get the 4x6 plate which is four salads and six falafel balls. There is certainly better middle eastern food to be had in the area, though this place is quite fast comparatively. The decor is haphazard, chairs are uncomfortable. The bathroom isn't very clean. In short, get it to go. read more

The Falafel here was forgetable, and the pita that wrapped it could be interchanged with cardboard. The salad that accompanied was OK, nothing more. The fresh-squeezed lemonade was over-diluted. The place is nice and the service is friendly. read more

stopped in because it's by my credit union and I didn't want to start gnawing on my own wrist... Very happy with my meal! hummus, tabouli and falafel were all delicious. The girls who were serving were awesome, really nice and made good recommendations. I would definitely eat there again! read more

I ordered the supreme greek salad that came with falafels. It came with 3...and they were so small. I'd probably give them 4 stars if those delicious chickpea balls were about double the size! The hummus was great, too! read more

Never tried falafel before but I've been buying the falafel king brand hummus and it's amazing so I decided to give the restaurant a try. I went there two days in a row and was not disappointed at all. The falafel was excellent, the staff was friendly and helpful in answering questions, and the price of the food for the amount you got was awesome. They also sell the falafel and hummus there so you can take it home to make later. Both times I was there, there were only a couple other people eating there during lunch time. Parking is pretty limited but it wasn't an issue when we were there. read more

I really like the Greek plate! The food tastes fresh & I enjoy the staff!

I love this place! Super helpful and knowledgeable staff. If you are gluten free you can eat almost everything at this place. I had the falafel plate with salad, dolmas and red pepper hummus. They gave me a side of rice instead of a pita. It was very filling and delicious. read more

Food was good, falafel balls were fresh and nicely spiced. Got a special which was chicken shawarma in a pita with 6 falafel balls and a drink for under $10. Good deal in my opinion!! read more

Saw that Chipotle was packed, and heard Felafel King was good. So glad I opted for Felafel King. The service was friendly and helpful (nice after a long day at work), and the food was perfect. The generous portions of salad, chicken and hummus were fresh and tasty. Super cool little gem on Colorado Blvd. read more

Great quality, low-cost Greek place in the neighborhood. The pitas, salads, and combinations are all excellent choices. Vegetables and meat seem fresh, and everything is flavorful. Have been here several times since moving here, and I think this will becoming one of my go-to places. Plus the staff are really nice. Highly recommend. read more

This place is amazing! Friendly staff, fresh and extremely delicious Mediterranean fare! You must stop in!

I always enjoy this place. Quality food at fast food pricing. The grilled chicken plate with hummus and salad is a great meal with solid portions. read more

Very good for fast food Greek! Excellent selection! Wonderful service! Very yummy!!! Gyro plate was fantastic!!!!

Food is really amazing- BUT the price for what you get is a little steep. Every time we go it seems like something you used to get on it is now an up charge. $9+ for a gyro with hummus? GarbNzos let you add as much as you want for no extra charge. I understand the quality is great But for topping should be included in the price... read more

I just love this place - no frills - nothing fancy - just healthy portions and freshly made. Whenever I'm feeling a little Mediterranean, this is place that comes to mind. read more

I'm not generally a fan of the almost buffet style ordering, though with the 4x6 plate, you get to taste quite a few of their offerings, and I have to say everything tasted pretty good. Plenty of vegetarian options, of course, and all around great spot and portions for the price, if you're down with mediterranean fast food! read more

This place is delicious! I ordered the falafel plate and I've never had such fresh, delicious falafel. The salad was crisp, green and fresh. Tabbouleh was flavorful and also delicious. I also chose hummus as a side, and I wasn't disappointed. The only thing that I would've preferred is if the pita were softer/fresher. But maybe that's how it was supposed to be. The service was fast and friendly. I'm just visiting Denver, but would definitely eat here again if ever in the area. read more

Really like the gyro plate with falafels. Recommend the tabouli, red pepper hummus, gyro, and falafels.

Went here for the first time and will definitely return again and again. If you're looking for really cheap food you'll have to go somewhere else and risk lower quality, but I feel the pricing is fair enough. We ordered the 4x6 Combo, which turned out to be an incredible vegetarian feast. Six perfect little falafel balls, a mixed green salad and your choice of four other salads. The mushroom salad had some great acid; the tabouleh had the perfect balance of wheat to parsley and seasoning; the hummous was smooth and flavorful; the greens were fresh; the onions provided a great little bite; the dolmades were delicious; the wheat pita bread was warm and fresh and a great accompaniment. My only complaint? The tahini dressing is a little thin, and ended up filling the bottom of the plastic bag by the time we got the cartons home. (Maybe the dressings should be packaged separately to avoid spillage.) Overall, this place absolutely rocks and is now at the top of my list for really great vegetarian fare. Kudos to the King! ;) read more

This place is horrible! The african lady working there dropped food on the floor then picked it up and served it to a customer. She also handled money then food without washing her hands. Made me so sick i had to leave after a ordered my food. Not to mention she was wearing a half shirt belly out and all cooking food. She was very rude and repeated herself 3x but then when I asked a question about the menu she got very lippy w me. Did she forget she works in Customer service! read more

The food was excellent. I got the sampler platter and there was a lot of food. I would definitely return.

This is a warning to all my Denver friends who love falafel - avoid Falafel King on Colorado ave. Went in and young man at cashier register was casually eating pita. Red flag but eh not a deal breaker. Young lady preparing our falafel plates sans gloves starts eating french fries directly from the fryer. Finishes eating a few fries and flips over our pitas. Still sans gloves and sanitation. Drops a pita on the floor. Uses tongs to remove the pita from the floor. Uses same tongs to get a new pita. Bye Falafel King - will be calling the King on Monday. read more
