I was there last week (8/27/26) and tried the Menemen instead of my usual donner baguette. The…read moreowner's wife served me and I had the menimen, a coke (I had too much coffee already) and a sobiyet for dessert. I had seen someone a couple of months ago eating the menemen and she recommended it. The Menemen came in a brass serving dish bubbling hot and smelling wonderful with a nice piece of toasted baguette on the side. The dish has peppers, onions, tomatoes, two poached eggs and lots of cheese and spices. It was absolutely delicious, I can't quite identify the spices, but the whole dish was tasty and filling. I would have licked the dish clean if I were at home, but I wasn't going to embarrass myself in public. This will be my new brunch item in the future. Sobyiet is baklava with a creamy cheese filling and I could eat 6 or 7 if I wasn't watching my weight. Normally, I would have turkish coffee but as mentioned earlier I already had too much coffee at home that AM. I like to eat here about once a month when I'm in the area and I love the place. The people there are very pleasant and helpful and will offer samples. Many of the other patrons are Turkish and go there with children for brunch. It's worth a stop to try cuisine not nornally seen in Denver.

This is a nice little cafe serving Turkish cuisine, specializing in pastry and breakfast dishes…read more The man at the counter was very friendly and offered me a bite of a ground beef borek, having asked if I ate meat. It was good, and I ordered a feta and spinach borek with an iced coffee and enjoyed them there. They offer Turkish coffee and tea, which I'll try in the future.

This place reminds me of one of my favorite Ethiopian cafes/restaurants. Per one of my friend…read moreElites, this is a Somali place. Well, I love African food in general so when this place came up in my search (even though I wasn't necessarily looking for that specific cuisine), I wasted no time to rush to it. I just needed a late morning cup of joe and something light to eat so that's what I got today. First of all, this place is not for coffee in my opinion. I asked for a cappuccino but the guy behind the counter made me a coffee (with cream; I could call that a latte maybe??) He did put some sort of a spice in it which definitively enhanced the quality of it and it didn't taste bad to be frank but it definitely wasn't a gourmet coffee or super delicious. I wasn't unhappy or anything. However, I let it sit for about 15 min or so as it was super hot when I got it, it tasted a bit better. Like a wine has to breathe a bit after opening its bottle, my coffee had to sit until the spice was well mixed in it. Now let's move on to the sambusas. Both Beef and Veggie ones were delicious. I couldn't remember which one but one of them had a little kick in it so the spiciness lingered in my mouth for good 10 minutes after I ate it. Also, the menu had some delicious looking food on it so next time I go here, I'll definitely get a lunch plate (and it looks like they can serve you quickly so if you are looking for a quick/yummy Ethiopian food, this might be your place.) Overall, today's visit was pretty good.

This plate was huge with a variety of different vegetable dishes. This is definitely something to share. Service is so friendly. We got to meet the owner and she truly loves the food she makes. Every now and then, she would come and check in on us. It was delicious. I also had the avocado smoothie and she makes it fresh as you order so it does take some time. Overall, this is a solid place when you have an Ethiopian food craving or you want to try it out and support a small business.

The portion is easily big enough for 2 people and it came with lots of delicious Injera. I really enjoyed the hardboiled eggs in it as well. I have not seen that before. Natoli is located inside the Mango House, which is a mini-mall of small businesses and a food court. If you like Ethiopian, but your friends don't, this is a great place to take them. They can get the food they like from the other food vendors and you can all sit together at the tables in the common area. This is also a great place to grab takeout to enjoy at Cerebral Brewing, since beer & Ethiopian is always a great combo. And, this is a great place to grab food before a show in the Arts District (People's Building, Vintage Theater, Aurora Fox).

I got the pan de muerto, the caramel churro and the pumpkin decorated concha. The pan de muerto is only available for Dia de Los muertos - so go grab one! I was informed by one of the staff when i asked about it. I have only had the chance to try the pan de muerto. It is fresh, has a pillowy texture, brioche style bread but not too sweet with orange zest and anise. Perfect with tea or coffee! I know the others will be just as delicious as are all their baked goods. Might report back on the others when I get to them but until then I'm going to continue enjoying the pan de muerto and drink my tea. A warm thank you to the staff here. They are always so nice!
