Middle Eastern Food in Denver

[fooey]

Can anyone recommend a Middle Eastern restaurant or two in Denver?

Greek, Lebanese, North African, Arabian, even tandoori 'staurants in a pinch!

Thanks in advance.

I've not been to any of these places, but my brother, who lives in Denver and is not entirely unreliable on food matters, recommends:

• Garbanzo for Mediterranean fast food (he compares it to the Chipotle chain);
  
• Jerusalem for cheap (the place is not very clean and the service can be iffy, but the food is usually very good); and
  
• Sahara for the closest thing to upscale dining (without actually being upscale) in the category.
  

Do let us know what you find!

Thanks, Dave. I'll try all of them and report back when I can.

House of Kebab is one I've heard about, so I'll try that one too.

Very comparable, very "middle of the road", but I've eaten there a couple of times and enjoyed the food, especially the tomato cucumber salad.
