This was a spur of the moment lunch decision but I'm glad we stopped in here! Me and my husband tried a sandwich and a wrap and both were delicious. I also tried the baklava and blueberry scone which were both tasty. The decor inside is really esthetically pleasing and unique. I really liked the feeling of it. I would definitely come back! The service was excellent and the ability to order in an tablet was nice so we could take out time looking at the menu without feeling rushed. read more

We had a greek salad & a summer salad. Both were delish!!! The summer salad dressing on the website said a teriyaki dressing but the dressing was definitely not that... but BETTER. FRESH, Tasty & a cool vibe despite the little "construction project" near the bar area. We will definitely be back. read more

I had high hopes for this place and was very disappointed when I ordered Zereshkpolo and received a dish that wasn't anything even close to a zereshkpolo! Total misrepresentation of an authentic Persian dish. No saffron, no zereshk, just soggy chicken in a mediocre tomato paste sauce and white rice. The salad was drenched in Italian dressing, which is also far from Persian dressings... read more

Urban Cafe & Restaurant - Zereshk Polo with Chicken Bowl - Cafes Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I met a group here for lunch and we didn't have any trouble finding seating, but we did have to spread out. It's a cozy ambiance. I'd recommend taking a look at the menu online ahead of time because you order at a kiosk. I put in a special request of no tomatoes in my pizza and it was covered with them, so don't love not ordering with a person. I also got the hummus and it was huge. I didn't think there was enough pita bread for the size of the hummus. I would definitely come back. FYI that it's just street parking. read more

The restaurant itself has a very modern Persian vibe, and it is beautifully decorated! The mocha latte was spot-on and got me going for the day (I got 4 shots of espresso in mine). Although I used a scooter, the restaurant is located conveniently with parking in the Denver Health building, if you drive. The staff are very friendly and helpful with answering any questions I had. The food was amazing, and gyros in the omelet was delicious! read more

no joke. this is probably the best cold brew I've ever had. I do not say that lightly... it is so hard to get consisten, mil and mellow cold brew at a stand-alone coffee shop. I've had lots of the food here as well and it's all top notch too! I'd give 6 stars if I could I am so happy with this place read more

A hidden gem that I am so glad to have found. Working at the hospital next-door makes this really convenient! I am just thankful to have found it now but regret that it took me this long to find it. You walk in and the aesthetic is immaculate. Greeted almost instantly with some of the most friendly people. The restaurant was pretty full during the lunch hour, whichhhh I understand why. I got the koobideh sandwich to go, as I had to run back to work. I didn't have to wait long, but the sandwich was still pipping hot once I got it. The sandwich and the meat were both made to perfection. The flavors were absolutely wonderful. I'm pretty picky about Mediterranean food and it's definitely hard to find good places around Denver (if only we were in California!) but I was so pleased with my email. I'm already sooo eager to go back. They have a lot of different things on their menu (some of which are random and not really Mediterranean) but they also offer a buffet of Persian/Mediterranean food with pretty unique dishes that I'm surprised are offered. Based on how many people were there eating from the buffet, I have really high hopes. I can't wait to go back and I am just so glad that I was able to find this cute little restaurant so close to my work! read more

The coffee was super sweet (in a not great way), and the menu was outdated. They do not serve breakfast all day, "brunch" is done serving at 11. Seems like good lunch options, maybe we'll come for lunch next time. read more

Great environment and amazing food. I'd eat here again. Would recommend to friends and family.

Definitely a thumbs-up from me! Fantastic spot on Broadway, just by Denver Health and a short drive from Civic Center and Bakers Neighborhood. The place got this chill urban vibe and super clean. The food is tasty; I tried the Steak & Herb Pizza which is a mix of NY style and deep-dish which by itself is really unique. Also Kobideh Sandwich which is soft grilled ground beef and flavorful white sauce, topped with some chopped tomatoes and all placed in freshly baked bread. The whole place just screams laid-back urban vibes. You gotta try this place! read more

This was a random choice for lunch today - wow! Great falafel, a fantastic sandwich, (chicken shwarma), and excellent service, pricing in a super cute room. I will be back for sure! read more

I had a high hope for this place because it has a great review. Ambiance is good. Music is too laud. My family is in the hospital and I needed to have a quick break came here ordered latte and a pastry. There was a two ladies at the register even though they were doing nothing I still have to do, the machine order and I told one of lady I want ice latte. It took them good 20 minutes for my order already and during that 20 minutes, I already paid through cell phone like they told me to. They asked me to pay at the register even tho I already paid and my latte wasn't ice latte. They need to train employees to give better service. read more

I adore this place! I have never been disappointed. They have amazing salads! I also love their pastries and lattes. They have lots of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner! The staff is always so friendly and the atmosphere is wonderful! Right near Denver Health and 15% off for employees of Denver Health for coffee, drinks and sandwiches! read more

First time at this new Denver restaurant. They are on the northwest corner of Broadway & 6th Ave near the Denver Health complex and Mariott hotel. They offer coffee, Persian teas, and smoothies with breakfast items 7am-11am, then lunch & dinner until 8pm Mon-Sat. They offer several Persian related beverages and foods in addition to the usual light lunch and dinner fare. I started with their creamy barley soup made with veggies and topped with olive oil and a full size pita cut into triangular shapes. You can add proteins like chicken, steak and salmon. Very good. Next I got their "The Green" salad with a bed of spri g mix, chopped walnuts, whipped feta cheese, cucumbers, green tomatoes with a lemon olive oil dressing. Crunchy and refreshing. I added a cup of hot Persian black tea with Oat Milk. I also a personal size thin crust pizza with roasted chicken, walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes and tarragon with a creamy garlic sauce instead of tomato sauce. A great pizza. They have 2 other versions, cheesy eggplant and pepperoni. You order at the front counter and they bring out the food. The hot tea was served in a china cup. Despite being next to both Broadway & 6th Ave, there was no traffic noise. They have several high top tables and 4 booths. There is also a couch with antique furnishings for relaxing nearby. The have 2 gender free restrooms. They have soft drinks, but no alcohol. There is large dessert display case with both American style & Persian pasties, like baklava. read more

Tried this spot for lunch since there were such high reviews, and it was just terrible. My colleague and I ordered chicken wings and the chef's special Zereshk Chicken Bowl. We left a majority of both meals on the table. The wings were bland and soggy; a side of ranch was an extra $1.50. The rice in the chicken bowl was crunchy (undercooked, not intentionally crunchy) and the flavor of the chicken was similar to a canned chicken dish. Lunch was it's over $50 which is happily pay for a quality lunch. This was not it. read more

This was literally some of the best food I've ever eaten. We stopped there on a whim due to its open hours and could not have been happier. I just recommended it to a friend today. Everything was delicious - even the iced tea! read more

This place is a cool find for morning coffee and quick breakfast! I was driving down 6th Ave and saw it on the left before Broadway. I ended up parking across the street, with one way on Broadway and 6th... easier to walk across the street. Great ambience and not the hustle and bustle of many coffee shops. I ordered a breakfast burrito that they make from scratch so it takes a little longer than grab and go. Would definitely come back especially with friends if we were looking to hang out somewhere quiet and casual. read more

This place was amazing! We had sandwiches and a Persian dish, as well as Persian tea. So incredibly tasty. Pricing great, too. Everyone was kind and helpful. Highly recommend! read more

Quiet cafe near downtown! Delicious food and drink, very kind/helpful staff, and super reasonable prices (I got a huge danish and a matcha latte for only $11). The man who took my order was very nice, and another man who I assume to be the owner was checking up on customers, making sure the sun from the windows was not bothering us. A bit sad that I am only visiting from out of state, I hope to find somewhere like Urban Cafe where I live :) read more

This place is impressive. I was shocked by how good the food was. The interior and music are well suited as well. I got the Mediterranean Combo and loved it. The hummus and dolmas really show the effort that's been put into the food. I'm want to try everything on the menu. Denver eateries should learn from this place's example and focus on quality food. Such a breathe of fresh air. So impressed! read more

I absolutely love the way they decorated this place, it's beautiful nod the food options are great! So much that I want to try here!

One of the great places for gathering with friends at 6th and Broadway neat Downtown Denver. You do not feel that you re at a restaurant, feels more like a friends home. Excellent ambient. Staff is friendly, polite, and attentive. Food is great. If you like Mediterranean food, sandwiches, or just a pastry with coffee/tea; there is something for each taste. Food portions, prices, and taste of food are great. Try them, you will not be disappointed. read more

This is our first time in Denver. We were looking for a lunch spot with good and fresh food. After seeing the reviews and pictures on Yelp, we landed on Urban Cafe. It was everything we wanted and more! We ordered the hummus and Italian sandwich. The hummus was deliciously fresh and flavorful, and I was delighted to see the beautiful presentation, too. I took a picture in the hopes of recreating something like it at home. The focaccia bread on the Italian was light and didn't overcome the sandwich like many breads do. It paired well with the flavors of the Italian meats, and I loved the freshness the cilantro brought to it. The aesthetics added to the whole experience. The restaurant was relaxing and comfortable, and the staff was friendly. Highly recommend. If we had an Urban Cafe back home, I'd be a regular! read more

Great atmosphere, very clean, I brought a friend from Brazil a slice of pizza and he said it was the best pizza he had so far here in America. I had the steak and herb pizza with a slice of pistachio Ricotta and it was really well made, the cake was made like it should be. read more

The worst part about this place is having to chose what to eat. Everything looks amazing and the focaccia is delicious. 10/10.

The service from the beginning is welcoming. Our server was friendly and helpful on suggestions. The food was very good and a good value for the price. I highly recommend them for breakfast. read more
