The food and service are wonderful. I recommend sitting at the bar and ordering the Dip Tower with Jordan - he gives great recommendations for wine and food for all dietary types! Thank you to Jordan, Aschera, and the Kini's team - consistently great experiences!

I love the atmosphere here! the hanging plants make the place cozy and nice. The restaurant was not too loud which I loved it about it. I loved every food I ordered. I ordered hamachi, lamb, dip tower. My fiancé and I were super full and we couldn’t finish everything but I loved every single food I ordered. I highly recommend coming to the place for nice dinner night or date. The price might be bit high but the food was definitely worth it!!!

Definitely not worth the price. As a New Yorker, I’m honestly shocked how a chain having Don Angie under their umbrella managed to run this place as is. Had to visit as a part of a business dinner, which allowed us to experiment a lot of dishes. The menu is 85% Greek 10% Turkish and 5% different parts of Mediterranean. I think overall the food was good. For me it was 3.5/5 and for others who were with me who didn’t grow up in Aegean it was by 4/5. Everyone sort of agreed that Octopus was actually a little too salty though But man the service. First, we ordered the dip tower (or whatever they call it) and the server dropped some pieces of pita on the way. Even though they noticed we saw it (they literally cleaned under our table to get pita ) they never replaced it. Second, we were constantly bothered if they could clear the table. Guys, in Greece, Türkiye and other parts of Mediterranean, the food stays on the table forever. It is never taken off the table unless it is replaced with more food. Even though I joked we were slow eaters, they constantly bothered us if we were done with the food or “clear them out of our way”. What was that ouzo served in the cocktail glass And the last surprise is obviously the bill. Way overpriced for the most gentrified part of Denver:)

The service started out a little rough - When the waiter came to take our drink order we hadn’t looked at the drink menu but we were starving and knew we wanted the calamari so we ask him to put that in. He says something to the effect that they like to put the entire order in at once so it comes out of the kitchen properly spaced and walked away. Put off, we thought, I don’t really care what you like, I’m the customer. He comes back, takes our drink order and runs away before we can order our whole meal. Thankfully, he had already put in the calamari and it came to the table before the drinks, everything was up from there. The artichoke hearts were a fantastic compliment to the calamari. The Greekballs as they should be called were amazing and the flaming cheese was the best we’ve ever had. The lamb chops were ever so slightly overcooked yet the texture was still perfect. The Brussels sprouts were pretty sweet too, didn’t pair great with the lamb but the cheese packed cacio e pepe balanced it out well. It was overall a great meal.

We made a reservation and they had us waiting for like 30 minutes. Then we walk into the bar sat down and then we saw three people got a table so we were why don’t we have a table yet? I got a little upset I told the bartender that I wasn’t gonna order a drink until I knew if I was getting a table and she look confused. She kindly offered me a drink while I waited. We got our table after 5 min and the waiter was friendly Still confused why other people got a table first. It felt kinda racist. I am disappointed about this place

This place didn’t disappoint. Everything was of a great quality! Their tomato salad is something else!

Had an interesting and unsettling experience here today. We were told to lower our voices with a very empty bar. We are grown women discussing truly normal life experiences to just ourselves today at the bar. I appreciate the customer experience as a previous server, and I understand the service business. So, this review is under the experience of that. Just understand that when you choose to spend your time and money here, there is a very constructed, stiff, and fabricated expectation of how patrons should act. We politely let our server and manager that and there was an escalation on their front of what that means, without the ability to take constructive feedback. So, as a customer, take that for what that is. Drinks and food were good. Beware of what is expected of you enjoying your afternoon.

first of all it took about 25 minutes for us to be sat after our reservation— but they apologized with complimentary glasses of champagne! which is exactly the right thing to do. i assumed it was a part of the growing pains. service was delightful overall! and the cocktails were yummy and fun. but the food was disappointing. not terrible— not great. the calamari didn't tastelike calamari but more like fried chicken which was a little off putting and it looked like fried chicken pieces. flaming cheese was good— but missing something. perhaps some sweetness? the moroccan fried chicken was dry and not delicious. brussels sprouts were great. we likely won’t return but had a fine time.maybe we just got the wrong things?
