Absolutely loved Cafe Paprika. The owner himself waited on us and offered us hot mint tea. Get the tea. It was so yummy and comforting on a cold winter night. We started with the hummus and falafel which was stinking’ amazing. Our entrees were delicious and the baclava for dessert kind of hit it out of the park. The quiet atmosphere and excellent service was exactly what we were looking for- give it a try!

First time here and it was delicious! Bastilla was amazing. Humus was homemade and kabobs with rice so tasty! Falafel was moist and delicious. Small business in a strip mall but worth the drive. We will go again for dinner. Overall great lunch experience

Food was great! I got the combo with the three meats and I got lamb, gyro, and kefta. Everything tasted great but I just wish there was slightly more quantity for the price.

Fantastic little Moroccan restaurant. Besides the food, the wall decor / artwork is superb. Quite the ambiance, you'd almost think you were outside Tangier. The gentleman who owns the place was extremely helpful and kind. What colorful and well presented food. This place is a gem for those who enjoy the Mediterranean fare.Thank you, I will be back.

The food here is really tasty and authentic. I had the vegetarian Tagine & my mother had the lamb shank. Both were done beautifully, smelled amazing, & tasted so delicious. The baklava is also pretty good! We’re no strangers to Middle Eastern food & this was on par with some of the best. My mother is visiting from TX & was very delighted in finding a gem like this in CO. The paintings on the walls also make for a beautiful atmosphere. The owner, Chakib, was also very pleasant & attentive. Highly recommend!

I suggest a glass of Moroccan tea and the Bastilla (a layered pastry type pie filled with egg, meat, cinnamon, etc.). I ordered a gyro but next time I will try something different. The owner will probably wait on you and if it’s not too busy he may pull up a chair and visit. I enjoyed the food and company. 20+ years in business, same location.

The lamb and soups were great. But the vegetarian entree was terrible. The vegetables are frozen then cooked which is not disclosed on the menu. The mint tea was also great. The prices is okay. The serving size is okay.The decor really needs an upgrade.

Great Food, Friendly Service, Warm Atmosphere: Cafe Paprika looks like a little hole in the wall from the outside, but it's definitely worth going in and sampling their amazing food! I tried the sweet couscous with chicken, plus the soothing harrira soup and mint tea. Can't wait to go back and try another dish!

Just enjoyed a wonderful dinner with my family.The proprietor, Chakib, was very willing to share his recommendations with us (you have to try bastilla, a typical Moroccan appetizer).For anyone who is not sure if they should venture out and give this restaurant a try, I encourage you to be adventurous. The dishes are very generous in size and very reasonably priced. We’ll be back!

Very tasty Morrocan food served in a beautiful cultural setting. We tried number of dishes and a desert, everything was delicious. It could be a bit pricy.

This is my new favorite restaurant in the area!! It is a locally owned family restaurant that has been in business for years. The owner himself served our food, and went out of his was to provide excellent service. We ordered a variety of platters and all the food was absolutely delicious! Also, the prices are reasonable too. I was very impressed, and highly recommend eating at Cafe Paprika!

Great food and great conversation from the owner! The Bastilla was perfection and my gyro sandwich was to die for. The hummus was amazing, the falafel exquisite. There really wasn’t anything we had that wasn’t genuinely great. Also had some green tea and mint herbal tea that capped the whole meal off with wonderful subtle flavors. The owner made wonderful natural conversation, didn’t feel forced to try anything but happily did. Will definitely be coming back here again. And again. And again!

Wow, excellent. We've had similar food elsewhere that was very good. But this was excellent, plus beautiful presentation on the plates. The host (owner?) was very helpful and friendly. Loved the wall mural.

Excellent food. Falafel with Baba Ganoush was awesome, even the kebab platter. Lamb shank was falling off the bones and was very flavorful. Great place

My life is changed forever for the better after a lunch visit here. Cafe Paprika is the best restaurant experience I have had in all of Colorado. Kind host, amazing meal, comfortable atmosphere and seating. We will definitely be back. If your allergies and/or dietary needs allow, order the Bastilla. You will not regret it.

Authentic Morrocon eatery with halal food.Really cozy place with great food.We ordered falafel for starters and apricot chicken and lamb shank for main course.Falafel were really good and warm with a lot of hummus and baba ghanoush.Lamb shank was cooked to order and served with rice.Apricot chicken was served with vegetables on a bed of rice and had a sweet taste to it, which was not overpowering.

This is some of the best food in Denver. It's always fresh, delicious and the owner is an amazing host. He takes the time to chat with you and will always remember if you've been there before, even if it's been years. Every bite is flavored and cooked perfectly. The location is down to earth in a strip mall with the a cute little environment to enjoy the amazing Moroccan cuisine.

Truly a great dining experience. The food, from appetizer to dessert, was simply astounding. There was a cozy ambiance that was nurtured by the delicious Moroccan Mint Tea. The owner is such a friendly guy too. He made me feel very welcomed on my vacation to Denver. If I ever come back, this will be the first stop I make.

Delicious Moroccan food. Definitely order the Bastilla for appetizer. I would have eaten the whole thing myself if I didn't have to share with 4 other people. Most people got a lamb shank main, and it was amazingly tender and juicy. Well worth a visit.

This place is amazing! The food is so flavorful and and so clearly fresh. The owner is so friendly and has devoted himself to this restaurant for the past 27 years. There sadly aren’t many restaurants with such high quality, fresh food, but this place definitely is one of them. A true hidden gem.

This place is a little modest hidden gem. I was around on a business trip and decided to go try this Moroccan restaurant. I've eaten many Moroccan dishes and traveled to Morocco so I was not new to the flavors and dishes offered. In complete honesty this place is spot on and brought me back some memories with the flavors offered. Additionally, the prices are very reasonable and portions are pretty good (comparing to California).
