Our group tried a bit of everything: the Tikka Masala, Chicken Tikka Masala Cheesesteak, Veggie Tikka Masala Burger, and the Honey Pizza. * The Flavors: Most of the food was excellent with a really nice heat level. * The Portions: The naan portions are super generous. While the Tikka Masala portion felt a bit smaller than other spots, the taste was spot on. * The Honey Pizza: This was a standout for me! It's unique and really tasty, though it was a bit polarizing for the rest of the table. * The Service: The staff is incredibly attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. The Chicken Tikka Masala Cheesesteak was supposed to come with tzatziki, but I didn't see or taste any on mine. The Veggie Tikka Masala Burger was also a bit of a letdown--it's essentially a standard burger with a side of masala sauce for dipping. We were hoping the burger itself would be infused with those Indian flavors rather than just relying on the extra sauce. read more

When in Larimer Square and Downtown Denver, you should check this place out. The Cheese Samosa was delicious & cheesy. The Chicken Masala Calzone was freshly made and delicious. The Beef Tikka Masala Burger was ok; wished the buns were warmed & toasted, but overall we had a great experience. Everyone on their staff was super friendly. Cool and clean vibes inside. Parking: Metered parking near Larimer Square was $4 for 2 hours. There's also parking lots ranging starting at $7 an hour. read more

Gaia is my new favorite restaurant! As we were strolling the 16th Street Mall & hungry for lunch we "fell" upon this place & are very happy we did. We could see the menu displayed from the front door & decided to give it a try. What we appreciated was that there was an All American Burger on the menu for those that don't care for Indian spice flavors. The menu is unique...a fusion of Indian, American & Mediterranean Cuisines. In addition, you can pick your level of hot - mild, medium, hot or super hot. They are open everyday from 10AM to 3 in the morning, 3AM! We were seated right away into a comfy booth. Our server was sweet and took our drinks orders right away. We ordered Honey Naan, a Beef Tikka Masala Burger (mild) with fries, an All American Burger with fries & a Chicken Tikka Masala Calzone (mild). The Naan was wonderful, the Masala Burger was delicious, it came with lettuce, cheese, mint, chopped onion, sliced cucumbers & tikka masala sauce. Wow, what a flavorful burger, I loved it. The American Burger was good too. We were glad they had this option on the menu. Note, the fries were excellent as well, nice & crispy especially good with the dipping sauce. The star of the meal was the calzone. The combination of the chicken in the tikka masala sauce with lots of mozzarella cheese was fantastic & the dish was full of flavor. I also enjoyed the three dipping sauces that went with the calzone. This was a fabulous lunch & a fabulous place! read more

I went here with a coworker since it's close to the office and had very good Yelp reviews. We were able to get seats right away for Wed night dinner. Our waitress was very nice and friendly. Her name was Paritha (probably totally misspelling her name?) but she always had a smile and checked with us to make sure we were liking everything. Their menu is definitely fusion with Indian/Nepal style calzones, cheesesteaks, burgers and traditional Indian/Nepal dishes. I went with the chicken tikka masala, which was very good. I also ordered a side of garlic naan which was ok, I've had better. My coworker got the tikka masala burger which he liked. Prices were affordable. The restaurant has a nice decor and comfortable seating. I will definitely go back since it's close to the office. read more

An amazing menu of Indian food fused into more traditional American dishes. Fast service, welcoming interior and the food was off the chart. It deserves more than five stars.

Excellent Mediterranean food! My first time here and I was pleasantly surprised I had the Cheese Samosa which is melted cheese in a puff pastry. It was delicious! For my entree, I opted for the Lamb Tikka Masala Burger. It was BOMB!!! Som many great flavors! I highly recommend. My server was a bit cold to me, but it was late and the bar crown was prevalent. I don't hold it against her. I would definitely come in again to try some of the many different options on the menu. Until next time, Cheers! read more

I bookmarked this place for our trip to Denver because it sounded so unique. Specifically, I wanted to check out the Gaia Tikka Masala Vegan Burger. Sadly, we were unable to squeeze in a visit to this restaurant. But I was able to DoorDash it one night. So this review is a reflection of my food delivery experience. First impression, legit portion size! This photo only reflects 1/3rd of the fries included in this meal. https://yelp.to/oz7uIFY2FR This burger comes with a vegan patty, lettuce, mint, sliced red onion, sliced cucumber tikka masala sauce, Vegan Bun, vegan cheese. It was tasty! If I ever get the chance to eat it again, I would probably ask for extra tikka masala sauce. Would love the visit this place in person sometime. This fusion of flavors is something I don't see often. read more

I haven't been inside this restaurant yet but have had the delivery. The Tikka Masala Chicken Cheesesteak is fantastic and a delicious sandwich version of chicken tikka masala. It's a great "to-go" version of the Indian staple. Also love that the place is open till 3am. Not many places with Indian dishes that open past 9-10pm in general. Will keep this place as my default late night delivery place. read more

Gaia Masala & Burger - Tikka Masala Chicken Cheesesteak - Burgers Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This place has been on my list for a while now and I finally tried it and I can say, it isn't too bad. The chicken masala sandwich was tastier than I had initially thought. I thought the sandwich would be soggy and bland but it was surprisingly delicious. I think I could have popped it in the air fryer to get the bread a little crispier (I did order food delivery) but overall it was hot and full of flavor. The spinach saag was really tasty and made very well. It was thick and creamy but wasn't too much. Things I would skip: the wings and fries. They were good but they didn't stand out. I read from reviews that people love the Philly masala fries but since I wasn't dining it, I didn't order it and settled for regular curly fries. Again, they were good but didn't stand out and they could've been popped in the air fryer for a bit. read more

Quick dinner spot after a late night flight to Denver. We ordered a Pizza , a chicken tikka masala curry , gaia burger. We really wanted to like this place as our server was great and menu looked appealing. But it wasn't to be. We were very disappointed with the food quality. None of the items worked for us. The only good thing about the dining experience here was the service. So many good reviews about this place probably means they were having an off day/night when we visited them. read more

We came in because we were curious about their Indian/American fusion, and I did not expect to be so impressed but I was! Who would have thought adding tikka masala sauce to a burger would be so delicious? The chicken cheesesteak was just a touch better though- the hoagie it was served on was so good and buttery, and then it had the mayo on it as well which added to the flavor. The $15.99 lunch special was a great deal- it came with a drink and choice of curly fries or sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries were cooked perfectly, and it was served with their home sauce, which tasted like thousand island with curry seasoning. My husband got the peach iced tea, which tasted like a cross between peach tea, with some mint and something that hinted at bubblegum? It was good but not something I would get again. The service could be a little confusing- there is a front counter for to go orders, but if you are dining in, bypass the counter and ask the host for a table. The decor was pretty, although the mix of cloth napkins and plastic tableware sent some mixed signals about the style of dining. Overall, the food was so unique and delicious, it more than made up for any crossed wires otherwise. read more

We came here for lunch and we were seated right away. There were lots of items on their menu which made me indecisive, but ultimately chose the beef lamb gyro pita. It was good and they didn't skimp out on the meat. I also ate some of my bf's cheesy masala fries which were delicious. I recommend upgrading or getting that! read more

Mmm mmmm mmmmmm!!! Where do I begin? The multiple veggie options, or that they're open for us nite owls until 3am??!! But really the quality of food and service is why you must come here!! With the very patient and very accurate guidance of my server Sameer, I selected the veggie tikka masala burger. The tikka masala sauce on the burger and the "home sauce" with the fries were finger licking good!!! Like 4 napkins worth!!!! They have multiple spice levels, and I ordered "hot" which left a satisfying long and slow burn down my esophagus. I loved how the fries and home sauce only added to the burn in the tastiest way. My mango and chili margarita was custom made sans the triple sec and was the perfect accompaniment. The vibe is super chill, with a strong showing of Denver locals. Food also came out fairly quickly. Great find in Denver!! read more

We came here late at night with no expectations, just hungry after a long flight -- and they did not disappoint! The service was quick and friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious. We tried the Fire Tiki Masala Burger (even after being warned it was super spicy), and it ended up being amazing! Definitely on the hotter side for those who don't usually eat spicy food, but full of flavor. Overall, a great experience -- we'll definitely be back next time we're in Denver! read more

Gaia Masala & Burger is such a fun fusion spot -- perfect if you're craving Indian flavors with a creative twist! We ordered a mix of dishes and loved every single one. The Dry Chilli Paneer was bold, spicy, and full of flavor, while the C Momo Chicken had that perfect kick and came out hot and crispy. The Gaia Tikka Masala Veggie Burger was such a standout -- super flavorful, great texture, and a clever fusion of classic burger meets Indian masala. Both the chilli fries and curly fries were great sides -- crispy, well-seasoned, and addictive. Everything came out fresh and well-balanced. If you're looking for something unique and flavorful, Gaia Masala & Burger totally delivers. A hidden gem worth checking out! read more

Beef masala burger was pretty good. Cucumbers were a little odd, but not a big deal. Fries were also amazing, plus whatever the sauce was.

Pretty spacious bar and tables restaurant atmosphere. Beautifully decorated with hanging plants. We tried Takka masala, butter masala, saag, Korma, and Shwarma with some naan bread on side. Good service and good food. read more

Excited to try this place after seeing the great reviews. The upfront is a little confusing, as it appears to be counter service, which is where we ordered and took a seat, only to then understand it's also table service if you're eating in. Oh well. It all worked out. Not realizing we were getting lunch specials that came with fries., we ordered a few different appetizers to split. The falafel, veggie paneer, and garlic naan were all delicious, as were the hummus, tzatziki and other sauces that came with them. We also enjoyed our lamb tikka masala burger and vegetarian tikka masala burger. The regular and sweet potato fries were fine but nothing special. However, the lunch deal of burger, fries, and drink for a set price was a nice surprise. Everything was good, and we wouldn't hesitate to come here again. read more

While the fusion of Indian and American makes for some strong flavors, when it comes to the tikka masala burger, it ends up being a mediocre burger with some delicious tikka masala on it. I had the lamb tikka masala burger, and it felt like all of the burger flavors were overpowered by the tikka masala. The lettuce on the burger had no crispness to it and just wilted. The cucumber is nice on the burger to add a crunch to the burger. The biggest problem and asset to the burger is the tikka masala. It is very flavorful and rich but it doesn't blend well with the burger. The fries were amazing. They are battered fries with a nice crisp exterior and fluffy inside. Almost perfect fries but they could have used a bit more salt. I do like they serve the fries with a fry sauce but the sauce was a bit too sweet for me. If I was to come back I would likely try one of their other dishes like a tikka masala plate or cheesesteak, but I would absolutely get the fries again. read more

I liked the burgers! Unfortunately, I had a bad persona experience which is not the restaurants fault. I got dumped over a burger by a guy who is a bit older than me, and he told me I was too old to give him 6 children and he was worried they'd turn out unhealthy But the food was great!!!! Despite the terrible company I was with, the food was awesome! I might of left with a crushed heart, but at least my belly was full read more

Gaia Masala & Burger - So tasty!! - Burgers Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We were out pretty late on a weekday and this spot was recommended to us if we were looking for late-night food! We are so glad we went! The service was really good and so was the food! The falafel was a little weird and bland tasting, but we got some calzones that were unique and delicious! Mine had Paneer and my partner had one with gyro meats! Not sure what the sauces are that came with them, but WOW!! The sauce was so good. I wish I had asked, but we will definitely be coming back here! They had a very good selection of food- a little bit of something for everyone I feel like. The place was pretty full even for it being so late on a Monday night! The other customers all seemed pretty happy too! It was a nice environment to find that late! read more

I thought this place is pretty good. It has a unique concept combining American and Indian food. I tried the Marsala Burger and I'd give it a 7.5 out of ten. I liked the fries with the dipping sauce. I think the place is interesting and if you're looking for something different; or looking for someplace open late- this may be your spot to try. For me, I doubt I'll be back. Keep in mind the place is good, service was great. There's plenty of seating, as it's a long shaped restaurant. Ultimately I like other burger places better and other Indian places better. The place is good but my mind wasn't blown. If you want to try something different, try everyone else seems to love this place- it just wasn't my cup of tea. Happy eating! read more

Stumbled upon this place, we were originally trying to eat next door but they happened to be closed. We are so happy we found Gaia Masala. They have great vegetarian options and a diverse menu.

If I could review this place a 6/5 I would! Subash was so welcoming when we came in, gave us great menu suggestions and was so attentive as a server! When you sit down you get great complimentary pappad with a savory tamarind sauce and he even threw in free chais for us (not actually spicy, just really good masala chai). The chicken tikka cheesesteak and tikka masala beef burger were absolutely exquisite. Will come back here for sure! read more

Gaia is just confusing. They do Indian, they do pizza, they do burgers, they do Greek, they do wings, and they somehow find a way to "fusion" them all together. It was fantastic!

Of course! read more

Unique concept, friendly service, OK food! We visited from out of town and met up with some local Denver friends. Before coming here, I had looked at the rave reviews and menu. I thought it was an interesting concept! The menu seemed a little busy. I got that the concept was American/South Asian "fusion" but I was a little confused why there was a "Mediterranean" section. We stopped by at dinner time on a Saturday. I've heard that Downtown Denver is not super populated in general (as in locals don't typically visit downtown) so I was not too surprised the restaurant was about 30-40% full. We were seated quickly and the service was very friendly. We ordered the cheesesteak, masala burger, shrimp korma, and momos. The momos were the best part of dinner. Everything else was so-so. The masala burger was a little dry and the korma was fine but not amazing. The cheesesteak was huge - definitely would recommend sharing. I think the staff did a good job at checking up on us - but maybe a little too much? We were probably asked 5 times if we were doing OK and if we wanted to order anything else. The restaurant was also running a promotion for a free mango lassi with a social media follow - definitely take advantage of that while you are there! If we were to visit Denver again, I'm not sure we would be back to this location. We've heard some other locations have better food (based on who is in the kitchen). read more

This is the best thing we've had in Denver so far. We shared a chicken Tikka masala Philly cheesesteak and WOW!!!! It was a perfect blend of chicken + veggies. They might open in CA?!!! We can't wait. read more

So I will definitely admit that I was skeptical of this flavor combination but wow, was it good! We went in on a Sunday evening and I was surprised at how many tables were open especially considering how good it ended up being, but they said that they get a pretty big bar crowd because they're open till 3 AM. As it was they had a tremendous happy hour- maybe the best happy hour specials in Denver. It was like going back in time 20 years, no joke. We tried the masala burger, which was outstanding, the butter chicken with naan- also delicious, and my son got chicken tenders which were huge and also yummy. Absolutely would love to go back. This place is a winner. read more
