    Falafel Plate

    This place is such a hidden gem, the staff is very kind and the food is amazing. They have some of the best hummus and falafel around!

    The chicken shwarma plate in the to go container
    Shalil J.

    I love shwarma, and I love finding new places to try out, espexially nice mom and pop owned businesses! Today, I tried Golden Falafel, and I was very pleased with the experience. I had a to go order, so I could not attest to the in-house dining experience, but the man who answered the phone was very nice and answered my questions. I ordered the chicken shwarma plate, which came with a salad and pita and hummus along with the chicken and rice. Everything tasted great. The salad was surprisingly tasty, and though the hummus was low on salt, it was tasty once I added some to it. There was a lot of rice, and my only suggestion would be to add a little more chicken as I felt like it did not match the quantity of rice given. The overall taste of the shwarma was great, especia woth the tahini and tzaziki sauce added in! Everything stayed separated in the to go container, so that was also nice as I got to taste everything without it mixing together on my drive home. I would definitely say here again next time I am in the neighborhood!

    We are middle eastern food fanatics! When I read about Golden Falafel in the Post I had to try it...you should too!!! Small restaurant in a local mall run by a family. Food is very good. Loved the Chicken Shawarma plate (served with lovely fresh pita, Homemade Hummus, a great fresh Salad). I must say their rice is some of the best I have ever had. It has a unique deep flavor that most places do not have. The vegetarian plate is really awesome: Crispy Falafel, great fresh tabouleh and fattoush. Interesting Fava dip ( really more like a baked bean dish). Sure I have had better Hummus and baba ghanouj but for Denver this place is amazing. Since the article has come out the place is mobbed and since it is a one man show things are at a more gentle pace. The owner is a lovely man and you can feel his warmth. Prices are really good and what you get for your money is exceptional. Highly recommend you make the trek and enjoy some great comfort food!

    A lil taste of home, I'm so happy to find a restaurant who makes the traditional breakfast pastries. Fresh juice is a normal thing in the Middle East so it's nice to find a place that offers FRESH JUICE all at a reasonable price. The owner is Moroccan and such a nice guy. And it feels clean an homily. Can't wait to go back.

    Falafel Plate The falafel plate was amazing. Best falafel I've had the salad was great as well, exceeded my expectations. 10/10 recommend. Small family owned business the owner was very kind.

    Vegetarian combo. Everything tasted fantastic!

    I had some time to kill before an early evening movie, decided to stop in here and give it a try. Decor is modest, with some interesting pattern plates and prints. Middle Eastern electroninca was playing at a medium-low volume. I ordered the vegetarian combo plate which came out in about five minutes. It's a very generous amount of food, definitely shareable by 2 people, and the food was arranged quite appetizingly (see pic). Everything was delicious, and there's some good attention to detail, like little shaped pickled turnip pieces, crispy bits of pita mixed into the fatoush salad, and dusting of sumac. Falafel was great, seemed to maybe have a bit of a coriander leaning in terms of spices. Definitely worth stopping in if you're a fan of middle eastern food!

The staff is very welcoming and helpful. The food is fantastic and the portions are generous. Prices are very reasonable. We shared the Baba Ganoush to start. This is pureed, baked eggplant. Here tahini and pomegranate molasses were added. I am not a big eggplant fan, but this was phenomenal. The presentation was gorgeous with the puree spread out beautifully on a large dish, topped with olives, paprika, parsley, and a very generous dollop of delicious olive oil. An outstanding version of this dish. We received a large plate of very fresh pita triangles to go with the baba ganoush. These were great. We definitely used them to scrape every speck of eggplant off that platter! We both ordered the Gyro Plate. The gyro meat was very authentic, extremely tender, and very flavorful. The plate included a large tower of savory rice, a rich tzatziki sauce, a nice side of silky hummus, some pickled vegetables, and more pita. Another delicious offering and a huge portion. We also had soup as the entrees come with soup or salad. My friend tried the lentil soup and said it was flavorful and tasty. I had the tomato soup which was hardy and richly-flavored. This was a great meal. There's a pastry case with a choice of many Middle Eastern desserts. My friend selected several to take home and we staggered out of the restaurant with lots of leftovers that will make a delightful lunch tomorrow. A wonderful experience.

It comes with The house salad with Greek dressing and there was also hummus included. Overall I'd give that meal a 2.5/5. We also ordered chicken shawarma plate and rate it the same. This is my favorite type of food but this place was mediocre. I'm not sure if they were having an off day because it was my first experience here.
