Chef Zorba’s

Chef Zorba's is a family-owned diner at 2626 E 12th Ave in Denver's Congress Park neighborhood, open since 1979. The menu blends American diner fare with Greek dishes, and breakfast is served all day, including omelettes, pancakes, hand-grated hash browns and a breakfast burrito smothered in homemade green chili.

Greek favorites include the Athenian salad, spinach pie, baklava and gyros shaved off the spit to order, with tzatziki made from Greek yogurt. Burgers, sandwiches, soups and vegetarian options round things out. Inside there are booths and a lunch counter facing the kitchen, plus a street-side patio. A full bar pours Greek wines and beers, and brunch drinks like mimosas and bloody marys are available. Catering is offered for pickup, delivery or full service, and the restaurant accepts reservations and online orders.
