“omg we absolutely loved everything! we tried various items since it was our first time. the staff was so wonderful and very helpful with any questions. the hummus is the best!! My favorite hummus now. the portions are a great size on the entrees and everything is seasoned to perfection! even the lentil soup....I had no idea lentil soup could be that good. this place deserves to be way more packed than it is. it looks worn on the outside but the food is too good to not keep going back. 10/10 I definitely recommend!“

“I enjoyed half of the chicken kabob plate, because it is a lot of delicious food. I will enjoy the other half later. Everything was perfect, well presented, and packaged. This was my first time and look forward to trying other items! YUM!!!“

“Stumbled upon this place after my stomach was arguing with me for lunch and noticed a 9.99 large pepperoni pizza 12’ and how could you not get someone in the door with such a good deal? Incredible vibe inside, but let’s get to the good part, the pizza!! Originally from Milwaukee/chicago so I know a good pie when I try it and would, on certain days, consider myself a pizza connoisseur, but this one takes the cake hands down. I tried a few other “Chicago style” pizza places, and they don't give the justification this pizza gives. Incredible cheese pull; I could chug a gallon of the pizza sauce by itself if I had a chance. The pepperoni was amazing, of course, and my oh my did I have an amazing experience. I instantly thought to myself, this chef must come from Chicago or somewhere in the Midwest, and sure enough, he was! Corey, you’re the man, bro! I’ll be back and can’t wait to have other people try it.“

“The food is SO good and the service is wonderful. We will be going back.“

“Stopped in on a whim as we first arrived in Denver and absolutely loved it! Great staff and amazing food! Will be back!“

“My favorite! Amazing food!“

“Incredible place!! I’ve lost 60lbs in 4 months by eating here twice a day. With fast food combos costing the exact same amount, there’s really no reason to ever eat horrible food again. Not only is the food very healthy…it tastes great. The staff is awesome, and unlike some of the other places like this…they don’t skimp on the ingredients.
Highly recommended to anyone who’s done with fast food. My favorite restaurant!“

“Excellent food which is all you really need. Their hummus is authentic and excellently made; their falafel, perfectly crispy.

I’d say that the only thing they miss on is that the food is Instagram stuffed. It looks good, tastes great, but the sandos are a little messy to eat.

10/10 would recc“

Perfect for time with friends, date night or family with kids. Definitely get the watermelon slush. It's all fresh watermelon they carve at the bar with fresh mint...but add a double shot of tequila 👌“

Wish u best good luck“

“I’ve searching a good gyro sandwich for many years, this is the best place in Denver no one will regret to try this place.“

“Was absolutely and totally blown away by this unassuming, gem of a neighborhood gem/restaurant. Really good and delicious food in a very down to earth location - the back part of a petrol stand, no less. We ordered a gyro sandwich and chicken shawarma plate, and they were both really, really good! If you want to eat in, there is a counter with ten high chairs, no table seating. You can also take away your orders, of course. Free parking adjacent to the restaurant. Very and highly recommended!“

“Everything we ordered was delicious!“

“Great food and service. Food was thoughtful and beautiful and delicious. JJ took great care of us. Place is good looking with good food!“

“Not a big fan on hummus but I had to try this place out... it was worth every penny! nice clean and the service was awesome“

“Wish I could give this place 10 stars. I got into an accident right in front of here on a cold January night and ended up having to wait 3 hours for the police to show up, and then another hour on top of that for the tow truck. The staff was AMAZING and let me sit here for a total of 4 hours until I was finally able to leave when the tow truck came. Since my car was totaled, there was no way for me to sit in it and wait for hours, so I don’t know what I would’ve done if they hadn’t been so gracious and sheltered me from the cold. The staff was extremely nice to me and really calmed me down after the whole experience. I was a complete crying wreck and the guys there went out of their way to make me feel better. They even offered me a free drinks while I was there! I can’t thank them enough! It really restores your faith in humanity. I hope to get back there someday soon to leave whoever’s working a big tip, to try and pay back some part of the overwhelming kindness I received that night!“

“The best lentil soup I've ever had! The falafel sandwich was amazing, along with great service! We will be coming back!“

“Food was great, portions are huge, tasty food, amazing service. I ordered catering and all my guests loved it! 5 stars! Check them out for your next iftar or any occasion.“

“Do not come here expecting some fast food style sandwich or plate made hurriedly. If there is a wait for your food, it is absolutely worth your time.
Tonight we ordered two chicken shawarma wraps, the salad, and fries. Making a shawarma this good is a craft - the meat perfectly roasted, expertly seasoned, and the wrap charred to perfection. Everything made here is prepared with incredible care. And it’s not just the food, the owner is also very genuine and hospitable. When we arrived tonight to pick up our order, the owner gave us two fresh falafels to try with hummus (just because!) and they were the best falafel I have ever tried. On a previous occasion, I’ve seen him give out waters to some unhoused people passing by. Do yourself a favor and make the trip to ShiiSh.“

“We had an awesome and amazing experience at el five. When we are back in Denver we will go again. I most highly recommend this place as one you must experience while in Denver. Just in my top 3 places now. Totally worth it and awesome.“

“Excellent food, staff is very nice and attentive. Our group had a fun time and amazing dinner.“

“We had the most delicious & generous food donated for The Untold Stories Of Gaza. The food was absolutely incredible & we loved it so much! Thank you!!“

“The best lentil soup I've ever had! The falafel sandwich was amazing, along with great service! We will be coming back!“

“Muy rico todo y muy amables me atendió una señora muy amable“

“Love this place.. I don't do the potatoes in the gyro (yee-roo) but they are on point.. add feta if you like“

“Love this place! Fresh food and good vibes.“

“My wife and I went to Corsica for our anniversary dinner. After having a bad experience elsewhere in Denver we were looking for a little redemption night. I called and spoke with a manager named Lindsey who was empathetic to our other experience and assured me we would be taken care of. They more than delivered on that promise. Corsica has extremely friendly and attentive staff without being over bearing. Everyone had wonderful, personal recommendations for food and drink and created a warm environment for our night. We will 1000% be coming back and recommend Corsica for any and all occasions!“
