Middle Eastern Restaurants near Lakewood, CO

“Outstanding. Great people great food. What else can you ask for?“

“Delicious food! Loved this restaurant when I visited Denver and would definitely come again.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Hands down some of the best Mediterranean food in Colorado! I’ve tried many Mediterranean restaurants, but I’ve honestly never tasted food like theirs. Everything is incredibly flavorful, fresh, and authentic. You can taste the quality and care in every bite. Yemen Grill is on another level. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to. Highly recommended!“

“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!“

“Awesome“

“If you're craving an authentic Middle Eastern culinary adventure, Jerusalem Restaurant is a must-visit. The chicken shawarma plate is a standout, perfectly seasoned chicken breast paired with vibrant tabbouleh and creamy hummus.(order extra hummus , it's so good you'll want to dip every bite in it) Each bite delivers a genuine taste of the Middle East. The ambiance is cozy and authentic, The desert rack is amazing. This restaurant never disappoints!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I stumbled onto this place right next to the gym, and wow — the food was grrrrreat! Tender, juicy, and absolutely bursting with flavor. Did I mention how tender it was??? Lamb can often be a bit chewy, but not here — it was cooked to perfection.

Nowfell (apologies if I misspelled your name!) was super friendly, warm, and hospitable, which made the experience even better. I can’t wait to come back. Thank you!“

“We live Mediterranean food and somehow we have never tried this place. Melih the owner is the coolest guy and the food is outstanding. We will be coming back for sure!“

“Our first time there since moving downtown. Very good! We will be back!“

“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!“

“Consistently open til 2 or 3AM. Best option for late night affordable good real food in downtown Denver. I come here frequently when working late at night and usually get the same order, they make it good every time and the guys who work here late night are always very nice. Quality middle eastern food / Greek food / Mediterranean style food. Shawarma, kabobs, salads, hummus, falafel.“
