This place is so good. The hummus is so smooth and creamy and we really like the family that works there. If you want good Greek food, do yourself a favor and order from Kalita. It's in that strip mall anchored by Safeway on 28th and Arapahoe.

I ordered the veg combo

Pita: great
Tabouli great
Lentil soup: good flavor... but watery
Babaganoush:. Appreciate the Smokey undertone but needed some garlic ...or something
Hummus: disappointing
Stuffed grape leaves: good flavor
Falafel hard as a rock , very dry, good flavor
Tsadziki great!
Spanikopita- Whole Foods frozen is better

Lots of variety ...which is reflected in the high price

I might go back but i wouldn't order this "hit-or-miss" dish again.

A friend that I grew up with here in Denver came into town for a visit. Many years ago him and I used to frequent some of the best Greek restaurants in Denver. Because most of those restaurants no longer exist, and we were in the Boulder area anyway, by buddy, my girlfriend and I decided to give Kalita Grill a try.

I ordered a Gyro Plate with lemon chicken soup, and for the table falafels, and the garlic feta fries. By far the garlic fries were the best thing on the table, so let's start there. Absolutely delicious...crispy coupled with crumbled feta and garlic aioli. Damn they were

The veggie combo plate was amazing! The salad was very fresh and crisp, the falafels were crispy and soft, the babaganoush and hummus were soo creamy and fresh! The pita bread was cold, but it was soo soft. The baklava was amazing, with all the sugar syrup and nuts. What amazed me was how fresh the ingredients were, this is a must in any restaurant. The portion size is well worth the price. This will become my go to!

Fantastic! I got a combo platter that was delicious - everything - the chicken, pita, hummus, gyro meat, rice - all of it was truly perfect. The chicken was incredibly tender and perfectly spiced. I got my order to go, but was so impressed I went back after I ate to let them know how good it was. I don't typically bother to leave reviews, but this place deserves the 5 stars!

So unbelievably tasty. The hummus is so good, the pitas are fluffy clouds and the shawarma seasoned to perfection. Great selection of cold nonalcoholic beverages. Wanted to leave a better pic but smelling this baby all the way home, I lost my self control. So I present, all that I couldn’t finish in photo form.

Best, consistently delicious Greek food in Boulder. A little pricey but worth it. Casual stop for healthy lunch. Falafel salad is delicious!

This place is a gem. Family owned and run. Everything is made fresh. I had a Greek Gyro Salad (photo included) and a side of falafel. Both were incredible! Probably the best falafel I've had in a very long time. The Greek salad filled the plate and was full of tomatoes, cucumbers, feta, and an abundance of gyro meat. Served with a side of tzatziki and Greek dressing. The rest of my family had traditional gyros with feta (the feta was excellent!) Everyone enjoyed it tremendously. Definitely recommend!!!

Amazing food in an unassuming mall. We shared the chicken gyros, lamb shawarma and lamb souvlaki, and each dish was better than the other - the lamb was cooked and marinated to perfection. And don’t forget to try the Kalita fries - absolutely delicious! Will be back and back!

Kalita Grill Greek Cafe is the spot for the most authentic Greek dishes, owned by an impressive team of Greek background!! The owner totally rescued our original plans for lunch AND was incredibly patient with my diet restrictions. I was uncertain what to order; I didn't feel confident after the other spot, completely left us hanging!! Kalita Grill Greek Cafe, was located in the same shopping center as the other restaurant that left us at "less than desirable!" Kalita was memorable and a good ending to our day. The restaurant was incredibly classy from inside and out- We loved the

I paid for two chicken and gyros plates. We also got a side and drinks, came to $41 with tip. The food was pretty good. The thing was my wife got tzatziki sauce with her order (small plastic cup) but I did not. When I asked for some tzatziki sauce, they told me I would have to pay 99 cents extra ($1.08 with tax). I asked why would I have to pay for tzatziki sauce when I paid for gyros and my plate came with none; everyone else in the restaurant got tzatziki sauce with their gyros but I was told my chicken had some sauce with it and therefor I don't get tzatiki sauce. That chicken sauce wasn

I would say this was a great tasting gyro. That being said, it was on the small side. Also on the pricy side for what you get. Flavors are good though!

The gyros were outstanding! Great Greek salad too. The lady at the cash register was so friendly and even gave us free cookies which was super nice! Unfortunately they have no seating available right now but the food was definitely worth eating in the car!

I ordered takeout through Yelp Delivery and the food arrived 10 min before the estimated time. Score! I had been craving a Shawarma and Kalita did not disappoint. The beef was flavorful, the ingredients fresh. Very good shawarma. I also ordered one skewer of lamb meat (full of flavor) and the greek fries that were seasoned with feta and garlic (it was wonderful). Everything was cooked very well and I will definitely be coming back!

Excellent gyros and falafel. I also had hummus, which is not as tahini-heavy as most versions... Which is fine by me! The babaganoush is also legit. All in all I liked everything on my platter. Delicious!

There are a few Greek-style restaurants that do carry out in FoCo, but none are as good as Kalita Grill. So, every time I come to Boulder, about every week or two, I find myself here, getting lunch or dinner.

I wish they'd open one in Ft. Collins.

What a great find. Hummus silky smooth, Dolma complex with spices and herbs, gyros made with slow roasted lamb, not slices off a vertical roaster. Desserts made on site.

It's in a strip mall, a surprise to find such lovingly crafted foods, but worth the effort to seek out.

If you like high quality food with the freshest ingredients - this is your place! The first thing that catches your eye when you walk in is the interior, which is authentic and creates a cozy atmosphere. The food was absolutely amazing. Tzatziki was a perfection and trust me I have had many Tzatzikis in my life. 😂 Definitely try the beet hummus. Meat was very well marinated and tasted amazing. Overall, I was very impressed and will definitely be coming back again.
