Located on Broadway, you will find them tucked away with plenty of street parking in the area. There is also parking structures a couple blocks away if you can't find parking. Nice menu here with good option. We ordered the chicken kebab plate with a side of hummus, taziki, and rice. It was all really good and made with quality. The staff here were incredible friendly and so helpful! Overall, great place to eat. Packed with flavor and that's all I can ask for. Thanks Mysa for the great hospitality! Till next time.

Horrible experience and not so great food. Really unfortunate incident after picking up our order…read more We realized they shorted us some of the food when we got home and quickly returned to the restaurant and greeted with a "what's up?" by the young lady working there. I explained we were just in and we were shorted some of our order and showed the receipt as proof. The employee then turned, grabbed the missing food off the counter and said, "oh it's here and forgot to give it to you. I was waiting for you to come back to get it." No apology. Just a tone that she was waiting on me to come back for food they never gave us. As if this was our fault. Pretty awful that our food was cold and soggy after wasting all this time. The food itself - not bad but also very, very small portions of meat for the inflated price. The service was still bad when it was Crimson in this spot before but at least they gave you an adequate amount of food for the price being charged. We're locals in the area but will definitely skip this spot going forward. Plenty of other Mediterranean food in the area with better service and food quality.

Everything in here is made in house--I'm no Mediterranean food expert but it was a delicious pick me up after class. The falafels, while small, were crunchy and packed with flavor. I especially liked the cold hummus and tahini on the hot pita; not only were they seasoned well, and just-right, the hummus was smooth, and the tahini had some sort of seeds(?), which added the perfect texture. The dining area is well ventilated, with many windows, letting in natural light and air. While it's nothing fancy, it gives traditional, family restaurant vibes, which I personally love. Overall a nice spot! I'd recommend a friend to go :)

I love Mrs. Winston's but BE CAREFUL -- by the time you get to the end of the salad bar line you…read moremight have a $27 salad like I did!! But everything is super fresh and they have every salad bar option you could ever possibly imagine plus some you might not -- like their special already made salads. They also have soup, bread, make your own sammies and smoothies, plus tons of chips and snacky snacks. My lessons learned after a few visits to the salad bar -- choose the smallest container possible (it will still cost LOL), don't come unless you want to wait in a line of hungry corporate business folks between 12-1 (I have seen the line go out the door) -- actually my advice is go early because later on everything is picked over (although the staff are really good about filing the salad bar items). Also everyone who works there is super friendly and super busy! It is kind of hard to find the location -- it is across the street from the Colorado Center tucked in the middle of another corporate park but I didn't catch the name of the corporate park. So ... IYKYK!!!

I went here with my husband, and even though he was not really satisfied with his food and I was,…read moreI'm still going to give them 5 stars. - Their service was impeccable. They are great at greeting you, attending to your needs, and checking in on you, which I really appreciated. - The staff is really friendly, and they always change the restaurant experience. - The ambiance was very lively. There were several groups of people eating inside, talking, and having a great time. It was a good vibe. It wasn't too loud, but it was definitely not quiet. - In terms of the food, we ordered the avocado jalapeno hummus, which was very good. We both liked that a lot. - My husband ordered the spicy creamy chicken, and he did not like that. He felt that the creaminess was too milky for him and that it just tasted like he was eating too much dairy, which really sounds like kind of a personal preference rather than something being wrong with the meal. He was not a fan of the cream sauce. He felt like he was just dipping his chicken in spicy milk, and he was not a fan. - He also was not a fan of the baba ganoush, but I think he just doesn't like baba ganoush because when I tasted it, it was actually very good. - As far as my food, I got the cauliflower for an appetizer, which was delicious. It came with three sauces: tahini, garlic sauce, and some sort of green, spicy-ish sauce. The cauliflower was flash-fried with no batter, and it was really good with the garlic sauce and the lemon juice. - I also had the salmon kebab wrap with fries, and I felt that it was a delicious wrap. I loved the portion size, so it wasn't too much food, but also not too little food. I thought things were good, and I thought the experience was good. I think he just didn't like his particular dish, but I don't think there was anything wrong with the dish itself.

It was a Thursday night and there were three other parties eating food here. They all had their food though, and yet the owner (who was definitely not thrilled that I hadn't tipped, on a pick-up order) seemed much more focused on his Uber Eats and DoorDash orders than someone waiting in-person for their food. Don't come in if you're ordering food to-go. It isn't quick. The owner will probably respond with some BS about the food being fresh and requiring more time to prepare it but it's just because he only cares about the people eating inside. The owner is a LOSER who treats his customers who are picking up food as lesser people and barely acknowledges them. The food is NOT good enough to be treated like shit. Just because the owner is depressed that nobody comes to his store doesn't mean he should take it out on the take-out customers. DO NOT COME HERE. owner is a cancer on the restaurant itself. I feel bad for the cooks, they're the ONLY ones that work hard in this place

I came here to study, as I was in the area, and this spot intriuged me because the photos showed comfortable looking seats. I think this was a great place to study. I was here for about 6 hours. The vibe and setting was nice, and there was one bathroom available as well as board and card games available. Staff was also constantly cleaning tables! The menu selection was great. I got the chicken pesto wrap and the iced beekeeper latte. Both exceeded my expectation. The first bite of the wrap was super good, and the coconut cream foam on the latte was very yummy. I noticed in the past there was an option for a yogurt bowl, but they did not have that on the menu anymore, and that is something I wanted to try. I later had an acai bowl with strawberries, mango, granola, cacoa nibs, coconut nectar, and coconut whipped cream. It was very fulfilling, and one of the best acai bowls I had. The menu seemed healthy and it was fairly priced. I am not vegan or have any allergies, but it seems they had a great variety for those that are and/or have gluten allergies. The granola was gluten free and it was pretty tasty! I really enjoyed the theme of this place. The bee theme was really cute and there were subtle on-theme things, and I loved how on the menu, it referred vegan as beegan. The cushion seating was quite comfortable and they had some outlets as well. The staff here today, Friday, were one of the nicest staff I have encountered. They were helpful and had amazing positive attitudes, especially the girl. The guy was also very kind and it just felt like a very inviting place. The parking lot was quite small and very busy, but I was able to find plenty of street parking a block or two away. I will be back again when I am in town, I just hope the wifi will be back up and running because I used all of my hotspot data here!

Only two critiques: 1. lack of human interaction. I get these commercial kitchens are more…read moreeconomical for small businesses but part of what I look for when eating out is the service. The interaction with staff to either just receive a smile or ability to ask questions about the food/processes goes a long way- especially in this digital dominance era. Though, the staff of the space (not Talo) were friendly. There is one female (didn't catch her name but she's a petit brunette ) that was great! So The Colony did well at hiring job at hiring her. 2. Second critique- lack of flavor. This is the reason for the minus one star. Please don't offer tacos if the food isn't going to have the delicious flavor and spices that Mexican cuisine has. The meat was under-seasoned and lacking the complex mix of ingredients not only in the meat but also the salsa. The salsa also had a off texture. If you take on a culture's food, and you are not of that heritage, please please please master the flavor. Or create dishes of your own heritage that better represents the flavor of the plate so consumers aren't misled on what to expect - flavorwise. Other than that, love & appreciate everything else about this business. Especially after googling them and seeing more of their business operations and values. From the quality of the ingredients - organic, grassfed, seed oil free- to the minimal plastic exposure. Really appreciate it. The price point, considering the quality of ingredients, is fair. I hope as they grow, they can also offer counter orders as opposed to just relying on tablets as well as fine-tune the seasoning of their food.
