I'm 41 yrs old. I've been going here since I was studying back in college 20yrs now. Best place I've ever found for this delicious food. The owner is wonderful, very attentive and is like seeing an old friend ever time I go in even if it's been a yr or two since I've gone (have moved 40min away). I just love this place and honestly it holds a special place in my heart after all these years. Thank you

We were too excited to eat so unfortunately we didn't take any pictures! We are visiting from out of town and grabbed dinner tonight and couldn't be happier we came here! Everything was incredibly delicious. I had the Tajine chicken with preserved lemon and olives over rice. The flavors were amazing and I couldn't believe how lemony the chicken was. My husband had the lamb shank and it was falling off the bone tender! Highly recommend. Large portions, we couldn't even finish our plates. Amazing food, and we got to talk to the owner a bit and he was so kind and friendly. We can't wait to come back the next time we're in town.

GAYRO - LAMB on warm pita bread with mixed greens. Garnished with onions, tomatoes, cucumbers and drizzled with Tahini sauce.  Yogurt cucumber mint sauce is served on the side.Very yummy, relaxing atmosphere, extremely kind staff.

Owner is kind, friendly, and informative. The food is unbelievably good. I have been here twice and have been overly impressed by food and atmosphere.Vegetarian options: While there are a lot of vegetarian options, the vegan options are less so. Lots of food is made with cream or chicken broth. But it is all extremely tasty

Yummy bastilla. The only disappointment the last time I went was that they were unable to accept credit cards. I think it was a glitch, not typical problem.

I stopped by on a whim on my way home from the airport. I got a combo to go. It included hummus, baba ganoush, and falafel. It was sooooo good. Probably the best I've ever had. I also had the opportunity to chat with the owner. What a nice and engaging person. I will definitely go back!

Was excited to try this place but felt disappointed by the taste/value to price ratio. We ordered lamb tagine, chicken tagine, hummus, babaganoush, and artichoke and olive salad.The lamb flavor was pretty good, I reccomend it over the chicken tagine which was basically large pieces of dry chicken breast. It didn't seem like it was cooked in a tagine at all. Tagine portions are large but it's 70% couscous. Tagine, hummus, babaganoush could use more salt. The salad was basically lettuce with canned artichoke and olives, no unique flavor.

A rare delight! The only Moroccan food you'll find in Denver area... Maybe Colorado? This quaint unassuming restaurant was better than expected never having Moroccan food before. There was gray options for vegetarians and gluten free (me) I had plenty to eat. The portions are BIG. BIGGGG!! You'll love this place like we did!!

Was given small bottle water, was not told there was a charge. Hummus appetizer disappointed for 15.00. tanjez chicken very dry, lamb dish had one small piece of lamb. Not worth 70.00 bill.

Had high hopes for this place, but unfortunately did not live up to expectation. Upset my girlfriend's stomach, unfavorable meat to rice ratio, charged $2 per bottle of water, and I had to pay with Zelle. It's a shame since the flavor was decent, the owner is really nice, and the place is cute.
