About
Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe brings bold, fresh flavors to Highlands Ranch at 1601 Mayberry Drive. This Alabama-born chain has been serving handcrafted Mediterranean cuisine since 1998, and now Douglas County has its own location in the Highlands Ranch Town Center near Home Depot.
The Taziki's Difference: Everything is made from scratch using real ingredients. The menu spans classic Mediterranean favorites—think gyros, grilled proteins, fresh salads, and homemade dips—with plenty of options for vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diners. The cooking philosophy is simple: "We'll make you feel like part of the family."
Signature Dishes: The gyros are the star—grilled chicken, beef, lamb, or falafel wrapped in soft pita with housemade Taziki sauce. The "Build Your Own Feast" plates let you customize grilled proteins (chicken, lamb, salmon, shrimp, or beef) with rice or roasted potatoes and your choice of salad. Don't skip the dips—the Whipped Feta topped with honey is a must, and the Spicy Harissa Hummus brings the heat.
Fresh Salads & Soups: The Greek Salad and Mediterranean Salad are generous and fresh. The homemade Greek Lemon Chicken Soup is a comfort food essential.
The Space: This 3,206 square foot location features two community tables and a large patio with outdoor seating—perfect for enjoying a relaxed Mediterranean meal. The atmosphere is bright, casual, and family-friendly.
Location: Easy to find in Highlands Ranch Town Center, less than a mile from UCHealth Highlands Ranch Hospital and Children's Hospital Colorado South Campus.
