Ordered the kebob dinner plate and lentil soup! Both were absolutely amazing. The portions are huge! My partner and I ended up getting 4 servings out of it. The rice was fluffy, kebobs were flavorful, and the pita was fresh. Definitely gonna be a new favorite spot! If you like Garbonzo or Cava, this place is even better!!

Phoenician Kabob absolutely exceeded my expectations. The food was phenomenal!! Fresh, flavorful, and generous portions at a price that makes you want to come back again and again. Easily some of the best Mediterranean food in town. But what really made the night memorable was our server, Audrey. She was not only attentive and professional, but also incredibly sweet and, if I’m being honest, such a cutie. She has this effortless charm that makes you feel like the most important person in the room. Between her smile, her energy, and her kindness, the whole experience felt elevated. With food this good and service as wonderful and as pleasant as Audrey, I think I’ve found my new favorite spot in Denver.

Food is great, salute to chef! Everything is very good. Baklava is a real middle eastern baklava. And also big salute to Nasima she made the service 5 star. Will come back.

Absolute gem of a restaurant. The food is always so fresh and tasty. The staff is super nice, and the owners are lovely. No wonder they have been open since 2008, almost 18 years! Highly recommend. The beef shawarma is my favorite, but the chicken kabobs are a close second! The garlic sauce is to die for. Please support small businesses on Colfax, especially during this horrible construction they have going on....
