I am updating my review for my last delivery (uber eats) because it isn't Chef Zorbas' fault. The food was delivered was cold but that was not the fault of the restaurant. Once warmed, the food, as usual, was good. read more

Delivery food Come on Zorbas. I ordered a double hamburger and crispy fries..for delivery. You have always done better. What i got were 2 hamburger patties with nothing to go on them. Soggy buns and a side of limp Richard's! Please DO BETTER!! read more

Service is great. Super nice and very accommodating. Food is fresh and delicious. Had their Greek village salad with Jiro. Yum. Dolmas were really good too. My favorite was the chicken lemon and rice soup. I took my leftovers home and everything was super yum the next day. So glad we tried it out. Looking forward to trying their mouskka next time. read more

Such a cool twist on a standard breakfast! The Greek food here is amazing but what really blew me away was having the breakfast hash with gyro. It was new for me and delicious! The portions are huge and I reheated my leftovers the next day and it was still amazing. The servers were so nice and attentive, I'll definitely be back! read more

Was there for breakfast. Have to say I have never had Gyro meat in a breakfast burrito before but it was really good. Also had the 2 egg breakfast and it was fine even though the sausages were a bit cooked to death . All in all, the breakfast was good and the service fine. Would go back read more

Reliable and consistently good! Chef Zorba's has been on my repeat list for Denver restaurant for several years now, but this is my first review. This is a true to form casual neighborhood Greek restaurant with a diner feel- think the stereotype portrayed in My Big Fat Greek Wedding! Except they not only have Greek inspired fare but more American fare options as well. Consistently good food and good friendly service! Always clean and well kept. My usual order revolves around breakfast (served all day), the gyros, or any of the other sandwiches! This recent visit, our table ordered the gyro deluxe ($15.90) and the unusual breakfast skillet with lamb/gyro ($14.25). Excellent gyro and opted for chips as a side. Homemade chips that were super crispy and not oily or over-seasoned! With the unusual skillet- I was purposely stepping outside my comfort zone and was impressed with mixing lamb into a breakfast skillet and even more shocked to learn how tzatziki sauce actually complimented this dish! No regrets! Our server was Natasha and she took good care of us. read more

WOW- I went from a "meh, Greek food isn't bad" to a "HOLY CoW THIS MEAL CHANGED MY LIFE!!!" This neighborhood gem has turned me into a believer. I was skeptical about the domades- the grape leaves wrapped bites- but I was very, very wrong. The fresh herbs, the rice filling, WOW- it was really really good! I also had never tried moussaka before- it's like a Greek lasagna, with layers of eggplant, the delicious spiced beef, and potato. WOW- very tasty! I will definitely be back. read more

Chef Zorba's is such a cute Greek diner that gives an old school vibe to the mix of their wonderful options of food. This yelp event hit the spot with Breakfast with our samples. I really enjoyed my table and spoke to some amazing Yelp elites that I sat with. My Pita Breakfast was really good and satisfying. Karen was super nice and polite and she catered to my table provided us what we wanted off the menu. I highly recommend Chef Zorba's Cuisine located in downtown Denver. Very well done, thank you for this opportunity Yelp Elite Squad. read more

I arrived at 715am on Sunday. I saw 2 tables occupied. I sat at a comfy booth. I was served by Rachel G. She brought out a hot coffee (free refills) and a large glass of Ruby Red Grapefruit juice. I opted for a big breakfast, Village Unusual Skillet. Large amount of hash browns topped with chicken fried steak, gravy and 2 eggs over hard. Very good. Great service. I waited awhile. Then got a parfait glass of house-made rice pudding. Yummy dessert. No service charge. Their menu has a nice range of breakfast, lunch and dinner items. While there, I saw two groups of Denver Police officers and more patrons sitting on the sidewalk patio. They have 2 gender free restrooms. Plenty of free street parking. read more

This place truly teleports you to Greece with the food and service! The portions are big and family style which is perfect for big parties or small ones who love leftovers. I started with the chai latte which was delicious and got try dolmathes for the first time. The food doesn't feel heavy which lets you enjoy yourself through the different courses. I was able to get the gyro with chicken instead of lamb/beef with a side of fries. However, my favorite was the Greek salad! It was very refreshing with a delicious vinaigrette dressing. Ended with some dessert and could not rave enough about their baklavas. Unfortunately I did not get anything from the breakfast menu but people around me did and they all loved it! The portions are big so definitely come hungry. Lastly, when it comes to the service I was truly impressed on how quick and attentive they were. I recommend this place for breakfast and dinner! read more

Had a great dinner here, a total 180* from when I used to visit Chef Zorba's when I lived around the corner at The Carolyn Apartments many years ago. The current rendition run by Karen, the owner and her wonderful staff is a beautiful addition to one of my favorite neighborhoods in all of Denver. The food, ambiance, and the comfort of the restaurant made for a fine evening for the group I was with. Everyone appeared to have a great time with many ordering various entrees that covered the positive spectrum of neighborhood dining taken to a much higher level. The Athenian salad was a masterful hit! The plate of dolmades, tomatoes and cucumbers along with pitas and pimento dip and light and flaky spanakopitas were great appetizers! My gyros plate was moist, filled to the max with tomatoes, onions, more pita and French fries... WOW, I brought the delicious baklava home! Perfect dinner! Upscale entrees and other appetizers that I viewed from my dining companions... steak kebabs, thick pork chops, Mousaka, lemon chicken rice soup, breakfast for dinner pancakes, eggs, home fries, bacon... everyone was smiling and happy at the table. What a fine time enjoying home cooked food taken to a higher level at a neighborhood venue. We will return, highly recommend! read more

Never disappoints. Great food, breakfast and dinner. Always good service. Outside seating is our favorite.

The food was okay. Don't order fries as they seem like they were freezer burned before cooking and were very stale. The falafel was delicious but very small serving. They will up charge you for each item. Like $1 for a small side of ranch?! Our waitress never came around and asked how food was after it came out and our drinks were empty during the meal. I remember coming to this restaurant a year ago and it was a much better experience. read more

Chef Zorba's is a neighborhood classic yet the food is mid quality at best. The lemon chicken soup is rated as one of the best in the city but it has close to no flavor and I always end up adding more salt, pepper, and even lemon. This restaurant is expensive and overall low quality. The best thing I've ordered was a patty melt that was $20. Not worth the price. Service is excellent which is why my rating isn't one star. read more

This place is clean and well decorated. Always different going into a Greek restaurant vs an American one. Staff noticed us right away, even though they were tending to a large table. We were still greeted and seated quickly. Orders were taken and brought out really quick! We couldn't understand some of the complaints by previous reviews, maybe just bad happenstance. The food is good, larger gyros than Gyroz restaurant serves. Not knocking them, just comparing. My only suggestion for them is to add feta and have the Tzatziki sauce already on the gyro if you're eating in. The Baklava was also good; although I think they use a sugar syrup instead of honey, but still delicious! Overall good experience and good food. We noticed their breakfast options and will probably be back sometime to try their breakfast too. read more

Love this local neighborhood spot! I think the food you get for the price here is awesome, and the waiters I've had have always been awesome! Huge portions and pretty tastey food, a favorite amongst my friends and I is the pita breakfast add gyro meat. Nothing incredible about the food overall but a reliable local spot that I am happy to have around the corner. read more

Like many others, we discovered Chef Zorba's for a convenient lunch given its proximity to the beautiful botanical gardens. It was clear this has been a popular neighborhood breakfast/lunch diner-ish place for a long time, but it was also apparent it was recently refreshed with a nice decor. I mean, I took a picture of the bathroom! As far as the food, it was filling and satisfying, but nothing particularly special. I'm a big fan of Greek salads, so I ordered their "famous" Athenian salad with gyro. The red wine vinaigrette didn't do a whole lot for me, and the gyro was a bit dry and oddly crumbly...like pieces that fell off or were leftover from slicing. Yet, the variety in the salad, including egg, grape leaves, and salty feta, olives, and pepperoncini was nice. read more

Good food, good service, and they're fast! It's rare for that neighborhood to have outdoor seating but they do which is great.

Zorba's is the place we meet our adult children for breakfast to share great food and the news of the week. We LOVE this family-owned, well-tended, community-minded, utterly welcoming restaurant. My husband loves the blueberry pancakes, the huevos are great, and, UNTIL THE RECENT RECIPE CHANGE ON THE AVOCADO TOAST, the avocado toast was my #1. Always perfect eggs, ripe avocados, freshest fruit, and a happy little spice blend. Now the avocado toast comes pre-shmeared with over-the-counter, citric acid infused, pureed avocado. When I asked, the reason given was the someone had complained about the fresh avocado & being expected to "mash it yourself" (the horror!) on your toast. What in the world?! People love avocado toast because of the fresh avocado! Please, please, please, don't listen to that rogue outlier. They are misguided and wrong. Bring back the fresh sliced avocado! I'm begging! Until then I'll order eggs & toast with a side of avocado, but I promise there are more of me than the other person. read more

This place has great food and a nice indoor and outdoor seating area. They have breakfast, lunch and dinner and a big menu. I ordered the falafel sandwich and it was absolutely delicious.

Ode to the Bombastic Bistro I strolled in hungry, heart aflame, Not knowing that I'd leave with fame-- For tales I'd tell of sauces bold, Of dinners rich and stories told. The lights were low, the mood just right, With jazz that kissed the Friday night. A waiter danced--yes, danced!--to me, Like Fred Astaire with my iced tea. The menu read like poetry, Each dish a sonnet, bold and free. I ordered something hard to spell-- It tasted like a wish from hell (But like, the heaven kind of hell). The chef? A wizard, wild and grand, With saffron spells and garlic hands. He tossed and flipped and flambéed flames-- The crowd all gasped and called out names! Dessert arrived with fanfare loud: A cake that came with its own cloud. Vanilla mist! A chocolate rain! I swore I'd never eat again. So cheers to that bombastic place, With flavors bright and velvet grace. A super-fantastic, full-blown dream, Where food's a show and forks all gleam. Shoutout Ben read more

Legit! Reminds me of being back in Chicago. The gyro meat was on point. We went in for "brunch" on a Sunday, just 2 of us. We only had to wait about 5 mintues or so but the place was packed! Good for them. I would love to go back for dinner. We had the gryo sandwhich and the whole hog breakfast sammy. Both were amazing! read more

Ordered delivery twice and loved both times. The gyro is so good and the lemon chicken soup made me feel better when I was under the weather. Only downside is I can't order extra sides of gyro. I have to order a salad or a dish and add a side of gyro. On my second order I had to get a Greek salad to get a side of gyro meat lol. My delivery came and no gyro meet I was so sad! I called in to Zorbas to let them know and the owner or manager drove it all the way to Greenwood Village to get me my meat. The service is amazing and the staff is so lovely. Thanks for taking care of customers read more

This is such a neighbourhood go to for nothing fancy but some comfortable Greek food with lots of outdoor seating next to Ace hardware. The service is always 120%.

Otherwise - 2) falafel pita and soup of the day! 3) good chicken plates and hummus 4) lots of veggie options 5) inexpensive for the neighbourhood 6) take-out window and curbside pick up Love. love. love read more

Service was okay but it was FAST. The food was pretty fire. Got the fried mushrooms which is a good amount! Worth it! Got the village with falafel. The falafel was tasty but small!

I thought it was only OK. I thought the Athenian Salad was fine, but nothing special. One friend had a Reuben and didn't love it. One friend had a gyro melt and said he wouldn't order it again. The only one who really liked their meal was my husband who had a green chili smothered burrito. Go figure. My husband also really liked the morning margarita made with cranberry and pineapple juices and the baklava ice cream. The atmosphere is pleasant in a neighborhood restaurant kind of way, and the service was good. read more

I had high hopes for this place after walking over from the botanic gardens, but it didn't really deliver on food or service. Got the hummus, a chicken wrap, and a gyro. The hummus was sad cafeteria hummus -- seemingly no oil or tahini, and definitely not what you would expect from a Greek restaurant (note to self: I should have read the other Yelp reviews more closely!). We asked for soup with the wrap and got fries instead. The wrap and the gyro were both pretty salty. I would have given 3 or 3.5 stars, but when paying the bill, they miscalculated the tip (the amount that says it was 20% was actually 25%). I noticed a second too late, but called the next day to tell them. They said they would adjust it but didn't. It felt kind of scammy. read more

The BEST Greek diner (and just diner in general) in Denver. The staff is amazing and makes everyone feel like family, not to mention the food is always sooo good. Best bang for your buck and very filling, always consistent. The Chicken Lemon Rice soup is a must, along with the onion rings and banana pudding. Love this neighborhood gem! read more

Hello, I've been coming to Zorbas since I moved to the neighborhood in 2012 and this one left a bad taste in my mouth. Don't get me wrong, the food is great, as usual but when the check came, I noticed a $1.50 egg surcharge and I asked the waitress does the Huervos Rancheros not come with eggs as listed on the menu with a fixed price? She said it does and proceeded to hand me the triangular stand that was hidden from my view on the table to explain their "egg problem". It would have been nice to know this beforehand because I view this as a sneaky underhanded tactic to swindle unsuspecting diners at this establishment. Best recommendation is to either let the patrons know during ordering by saying, "by the way, I don't know if you knew this or not, but unfortunately, there is a $1.50 surcharge for all orders containing eggs due to major price increases as of late. Are you ok to go ahead with this order?" Had that been known to me before I ordered my usual, I would have understood and fully sympathize with the situation. The fact that this was left out of the conversation is nothing but a money grab for all unsuspecting folks. Do better! read more
