Went here on a Saturday afternoon and there was thankfully easy prime street parking. The restaurant is small, but plenty of seating and outdoors as well. You know the place is legit with the amount of chicken they are roasting up! I got their #2 with chicken and chimichurri sauce. Super tasty, all ingredients fresh. If you're in the neighborhood, you can't skip on this spot! read more

Sonny's Mediterranean - #2 - Mediterranean Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I travel here a lot and the food in Denver has gotten so much better. So I hear about Sonny's and I love med food so let's try it. Wow! The taste profiles are fantastic. Scratch kitchen and it's the best med in Denver. Small place on 32nd but has a few tables inside and outside. The rotisserie chicken is to die for (I'm back the second day in a row). The spices are flavorful on the chicken but it is so juicy and they cut the side order into pieces. Easy to eat and I love their tahini. Nutty, earthy and subtle. Pairs excellent with scratch pita from the oven. The salads are excellent. Very fresh, lots of cool ingredients, falafel a must as well. Fresh is the key here. Everything tastes like it was just made with quality ingredients. People are friendly and price is affordable. Again some of the best rotisserie chicken I've ever had. A must try in the he Highlands read more

This has become one of my new favorite spots in Denver. It's a really cute little restaurant with reasonable prices and great food. The service is super friendly too. My favorites are the tehina hummus and baba ghanoush. Definitely recommend coming here if you like Mediterranean food. Try the falafel! read more

A great choice if you are craving fresh, flavorful Mediterranean food! I opted for the falafel bowl with veggies and hummus. It was so filling. My friends both got gyros and really enjoyed them along with fries. We were able to sit outside and enjoy a beautiful April evening. Service is fast casual, so if you're wanting a sit down experience this probably isn't the spot. read more

Sonny's Mediterranean - Falafel Plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Denver, Colorado

11/10. A go to spot for us. Amazing food amazing staff. Best fries in Denver. Love the hummus, chicken, pita sandwiches, and desserts.

Well, isn't this a hidden secret? I say that because we discovered the food AND happy hour. We even did separate trips for each. Both are worth going to solo or combined. I am not even the biggest Mediterranean food fan. But, the wife talked me into going, and I was floored with the excellence. So I had the Pita Sando #3. You get three options for content. Let me first just say that the portions are luxuriously huge. Wife had the chicken harissa and loved it. We also shared the hummus. She did the vegetables, I did the delicious pita bread. Their open air cooler is WAY cold. Great staff. Counter service, and it seems easy accessible to go back up for the OTHER part. The Happy Hour. If ever in the area of this adorable street and aren't even hungry, just swing by. Great pricing. Wine is half priced, craft draft beer is $5 (varies), and Peroni's are $3.50. Definitely recommend, and see you there. I have to add a brunch review, as it was our first time doing that here... We had been here for the great lunch/dinner food, but found out they did breakfast too. What a great call. Counter-service, great vibe, indoor seating with a couple of outdoor seats. I am providing more pics on this review. I got the breakfast lamb, egg, and cheese sandwich, and wife had the breakfast bowl. We each loved our choice, and they were totally different styles. My sandwich was messy beyond all belief, but the awesome deliciousness overcame any problem of multiple napkins. I will be back for that particular item. It is counter service, and they have various bottled drinks. We got two kinds of kombucha (blackberry and strawberry basil I think?) and they were unique and delicious. We even got hummus to go since my wife loves it a LOT. They didn't have hot sauce during my visit, but they typically do. Neat little block to walk, and they leave dog treats outside, as an example of their attention to detail for customers. Don't forget that they have a happy hour with great drink specials too. They are two for two with my visits personally, and I will definitely be back. I highly recommend you stopping in, and see you there... read more

Fresh and tasty food! They crush it with their sauces and hummus. The sauce that comes with the fries is unique but so good! The hummus is super fresh, creamy, and delicious. Their falafel isn't the best falafel I've had, but it's good nonetheless. They also offer tasty desserts. I've only tried the cookies, and have enjoyed both the chocolate chip and tahini snickerdoodle cookies. They are more of a crunchy cookie than soft. Staff is friendly and they have some indoor seating options if you want to dine in. Parking is all street parking, but it's not too difficult to find a spot. They also always have dog treats by the front door! read more

Excellent fresh food made to order with a large menu and a couple of outdoor tables. Good beverage selection as well, but liquor license does not extend to the patio. It was super cold in the restaurant so sitting outside in the sun was a must. On Sunday state feature lamb as well! read more

Food was delicious! So much so, I forgot to take a photo! Staff was much to be desired. It is a small place with only a few small tables inside and out. When we arrive for a work team lunch (three were only 3 of us), this group of guys had taken all the chairs from the one open table. I kindly asked the women at the register if they had more chairs or if we could bring some in from the table outside. She looked at me like she didn't understand. Finally, she got it and retrieved a few chairs for us. We sat down and she brought us our order in a to-go bag. She then said "Oh did you want to eat in?". Then we went to get forks since two of us has ordered bowls and there were no clean utensils. I went up to the counter and asked the same women. She came back with forks and put them in the container, looked at us and then decided "oh maybe I should actually provide this table with utensils", so she handed me a fork. That was great but, we needed another one. Clearly she is not the brightest crayon in the box. They clearly need to have some training. The food is great. I would just suggest ordering to-go, limiting your interaction with the staff. read more

Had the #1 here with chicken and I still dream of how delicious and messy this pita was. It is do dang good, I look forward to coming back. If I lived closer, this place and another Mediterranean place in the area would be taking my $$$ way too much. read more

This place is a staple! The locations is designed for counter service so seating is limited. Be prepared to grab your food and go if needed. The food itself was amazing. Many things are a la carte so do expect to pay more than other quick dining options. The fries were really flavorful and the pita was stand out. We ordered a lot of food and could have gotten away with sharing the fries and baba ganoush. read more

This young counter business is worth a visit. Mediterranean fare is an obvious choice with Chef David Schloss who used to work with Safta. With his every own recipe created this uber-smooth lotion-like hummus. Lena Young who's engaged to Dave and cute as a button makes sure things are smooth out front. They opened in June 28 of last year. Everything is made fresh. Salads, sauces and that rotisserie chicken is one of the best! Moist and as a sandwich is unbeatable! We had the #2 version the Classic Gyro prep. Love it! Oh they have wines and beers! Tip: their fries are amazing! Great friendly service! They are busy, the entire menu can be made vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free by request. Who's Sonny? It's their 120 lbs Great Pyrenees that turns 4 today! Happy Birthday Sonny! read more

Sonny's Mediterranean was a true delight. I went here a few days ago with my friend Tabetha a fellow Yelp Elite :). This is one of her faves in the area. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with smiles and hellos. They explained different items and dishes to me and even showed us how we should get their "kids meal" we got that and a couple other items which was all fairly new things for me to try. Falafel , fries, chicken, zhoug aioli ,pita, hummus,Tzatziki and a drink. I would seriously come back again for the dipping sauces alone! Everything was so delicious and fresh and excellent quality. The place is clean and cute with both indoor and outdoor seating. The food came out quickly and was served to our table which we sat in outside since it was such a beautiful day. I will certainly be back again for the amazing food deals and of course the people! Thank you to the Sonny's Team for a great visit! read more

Outstanding food and service. Ordering was a little complicated because I wasn't familiar with the products as named. Once I worked that out, I was shocked and amazed by the flavors. The dining area is tiny but there was a place to sit. They even have a couple of outdoor seats read more

This is a great little fast-casual Mediterranean spot! You order at the counter and seat yourself. Parking can be a bit tricky since it's street parking. I ordered the tehina hummus, baba ghanoush, and pita for takeout. All three were so delicious! The hummus is incredibly smooth and very flavorful with the addition of the tahini on top. I've had the hummus from Safta, and this is very similar in taste/texture but at a much more reasonable price point. The baba ghanoush was very smoky and had lots of eggplant chunks, which I enjoyed. Takeout was quick and easy. Definitely worth the price! read more

Amazing mediterranean food - really fresh and great quality. Love that they have so many sauces. It's a bit expensive for sandwiches, but totally worth it - they're huge! You can't go wrong with the falafel or the rotisserie chicken. You order at the counter, and they bring your food out when ready! It's a cute and casual spot. read more

Great food and fast and friendly service. It is a little pricey for typical middle eastern/Mediterranean fast service food but is more upscale. They have seating but it is limited and does get busy so takeout is a good option. They have 3 preset pitas with your choice of falafel or rotisserie chicken and either harissa, zhoug or basil chimichurri. Their chicken is super moist and I enjoyed my pita #1 with harissa. Definitely only recommend harissa for you like spice (which I do). I would prefer if you could build your own as my ideal is probably some combination of all 3 of them. Their pita is fantastic and it's a good size. They also offer salads, plates, hummus bowls or samplers of dips. My ideal dish would probably be a mix of the chicken, some dips and hummus but that's not a menu item (you can order a platter of dips or a whole/half chicken but no combination). I would go back because their food was delicious but I would prefer a few more variations of the items on the menu and a build your own pita option read more

Flavorful amazing sauces. Chicken is delicious rotisserie The hummus has a slight Smokey flavor French fries that are perfectly seasoned Doesn't come fast but it's made to order and worth the wait. Definitely on repeat. read more

Don't be fooled by the long line of people waiting outside - it's not because how good it is but because the kitchen is extremely incapable!! Do yourself a favor and grab rotisserie chicken from your closest grocery store instead!!! This is the SLOWEST counter service place with most overhyped/MEDIOCRE food but fine dining price $$ We came here on Saturday night and waited in line. Ordered hummus and rotisserie chicken and was told that it would be ready in 25min. I thought wow it must be that good for so many people to be willing to wait. Fine, I went to a spot nearby and got drinks while waiting. Coming back, food not ready - ended up waiting for 40 min!! Can they at least manage the wait and give people a text notification when food is ready? Worst part - the $26 half rotisserie chicken I ordered was not as good as the ones from grocery store - overcooked and not so crispy skin, with so much salt on the outside. I wonder what gave them the confidence to charge $26??! Now I felt like a fool for wasting the money and time on this meal. The hummus & pita were very delicious and special, but didn't make up for anything This disappointment was not helped by all the attractive and convincing marketing I saw online about this restaurant. As a Denver food scene enthusiast, I'm really tired of all these overhyped places. People, let's vote with our wallet and give those real deserving places a chance instead! read more

I've been a big fan of safta so I was really excited when the former chef was opening his own restaurant! I got really lucky and when around 3PM on a Saturday and there was no line. The staff was very friendly and suggested what to get based off what my level of spice. The seating inside and outside was very limited but were we able to get bar seating. I got the pita sandos #2 with chicken and the basil chimichurri sauce. I also got the side of zatara fries. When the food came out I was super surprised on how big the portions were and everything was so tasty! I for sure want to come again and try their other dishes! read more

It's really pains me to give a new business a bad review, but hopefully some constructive feedback will help them in their success. I visited Sonny's today and it wasn't super busy; only one group ahead of me. The good: staff was super friendly. The front counter staff member walked me through the menu and made loads of recommendations. The staff that handed me the food was also smiling and personable. The wait time wasn't bad either; about 10 min to receive my sandwich. The bad: I ordered the chicken pita, which came in around $16 with tip. For that price-point, I feel like the protein portion should be a little more hearty than it was. The sandwich contained little chicken. The chicken it did contain was so dry, contained a lot of gristle and there were a lot of non-edible pieces. After the first bite, I found myself picking through all of the pieces as it was truly inedible. I also bit into a chicken bone, which was an unpleasant surprise. I ended up removing the chicken and eating the pita w/o it. The pita to topping ratio was also a bummer as the portion was slim. The pita wasn't that great, served room temperature. It was pretty dry and chalky. Maybe it would tasted better if served warmed, I don't know but I've had much better pita in my life. All in all, I'm not sure I would cross town to come back, but if I'm the area again, I'd give them another go and try their salads or sides. read more

Sonny's was so darn good (I can't type what I actually told my husband after eating here)! I met a friend for a quick meal before heading to a yoga class nearby. We both ordered a version of their sandwich with falafel and chicken. I opted for sandwich 1 with their chimichurri sauce... SO SO big and GOOD! The falafel wasn't my fav I've had but man, that juicy chicken was amazing; just wish there was more of it! My friend also ordered some baklava for us to share... it felt a tad burnt and didn't really pack the punch I'm use to with baklava. Very clean and modern but small spot with friendly staff that made sure to keep checking in. read more

Had the Sonny's salad with chicken and falafel add-ins. Chix was moist and tender, falafel was crispy out and fluffy in. Salad greens were cold and crisp. Pecans and sweet potato balanced the yogurt dressing. Clean and bright seating area. Counter service was friendly. All good here. Try it. read more

Great falafel. Freshly fried and green inside. The wrap had tons of pickles and tahini and vegan garlic toum. Lots of labeled vegan options. Can't recommend enough. read more

Nice little spot on 32nd. The backbone of any Mediterranean restaurant should be their falafel and hummus - and Sonnys is making some great falafel and hummus. They give you three sauce options for your pita, all of which are great. The harissa is my favorite. I do have a couple suggestions, however. For starters, they really need to be making their own pita in-house, at the price-point Sysco pita doesn't cut it. Additionally, the sandwiches are somewhat cumbersome and folding the pita in half (like a taco) leads to a pretty doughy bite. I think they'd be better off opening the pita like you'd find it at most falafel shops. read more

decently tasty but felt overpriced! I didn't love that you couldn't build your own pita-- they have 3 options and I would have loved to pick & choose the toppings. Like I wanted Israeli pickles from #1 but also harissa aioli sounded good on #3. I love a fast casual Mediterranean place but I think Sonny's left a bit to be desired! read more

Wow! If I could give this place 10 stars I would! I ordered food for friends who are going through a rough patch. Door dash confirmed the food was dropped on their porch when they got home they couldn't find the bag. I contacted door dash to confirm they delivered to the right home. No response. Then I called Sonnys back and Lena looked into it. She couldn't find a picture from door dash, but immediately offered to redo the order and hand deliver it herself. I was soooo relieved and grateful as it was over $100 worth of food. Sonnys took care of us. I was over the moon. My friends said the food was delicious. Will 100% order from them again. Thanks Lena for saving the night! read more

3.5 stars so I will give it 4. I had the #1 and Tracie had the #3. The food quantity is very filling. I thought the falafel balls were too salty. The french fries (Sysco or US Food Service) were cooked perfectly and very hot and crispy. The inside is really sterile. I would only eat here if you can sit outside on the pleasant sidewalk patio. + hefty paper napkins + metal flatware $35.10 for lunch for 2 (including tax) read more

Cute little spot but the chicken pita was so over filled it just broke apart and everything fell out. Pretty pricey for a pita too! Would've like to see more affordable options since it's literally just chicken. If you want to buy a whole rotisserie chicken, get ready to pay $42! Also, the za'atar fries were $9 - wouldn't mind paying that if they were worth it... but the sauce isn't great and the seasoning they put on top isn't anything special. If you're looking for Mediterranean, maybe skip this place. read more

Got the hummus bowl. Heada up, it was more a deconstructed 'bowl'. Very yummy though! The hummus is amazing (I heard it's from the same maker as Safta), as is the roasted chicken, and the chimichurri were delish. Don't go expecting to be able to get a gyro or schwarma. I would go back if i was in the neighborhood again, but probably wouldn't seek it out when i live on the other side of town read more

I was last here on their opening day of June 28, 2023. They are across the street from my favorite Italian restaurant, Spuntino. I came back to have a Mediterranean meal. I got the Chicken Sando with spicy & crunchy Israeli pickles and a generous amount of chicken, with red slaw served in a pita. I added the Sonny's salad with iceberg & romaine lettuce with chunks of roasted sweet potatoes, plenty of pecans and a drizzled cucumber yogurt dressing. I added 3 Falafel balls. I also got a can of SanPellegrinno Aranciata Rosso, an Italian soft drink with blood orange. An excellent filling meal. You order at the counter, select your drinks and they hand a table sign to you. My food was delivered quickly. The inside was very clean with white metal tables and chairs. They have a larger bar menu with wines, cocktails and beer. They serve breakfast on Sunday mornings only from 9am-11am, before their regular hours of 11am-9pm. They also have Happy Hours from 2pm-5pm. I will come back both Happy Hours and Sunday breakfast. read more

We met up with a friend to try this place out. 5:30 was perfect to show up before it got really packed. This is fast casual so there isn't a lot of seating. First the staff was all really friendly and helpful. We started with the baba ganoush/pita and orzo salad. The baba ganoush was nice and smokey but the star of the show was the fluffy, warm pita. The orzo salad needed salt and we ended up bringing it home with us. The hubs ate it with eggs the next morning with a hit of salt and it was really good. I went with the pita sandwich with falafel and #1 with harissa. It was so much flavor, so good that I basically devoured the sammie in about five minutes. The hubs and our friend also ordered pita sandwiches. The hubs went with the #3 with chicken and our friend did the #2 with a combo of chicken and falafel. We all agreed the fries weren't as crispy as the ideal fry but otherwise, it was a solid first visit. read more
