Great dinner! Nice music. We had baklava for dessert, with orange blossom water. I enjoyed a light Hefeweizen beer.
- Pat K. 

Great to have some different foods in Colfax. Loved the relaxed atmosphere and personal hospitality. The Gyros and Dolmas were great!! Baklava is a must - light pastry and honey sweet!! We wish you luck!!

This is such a lovely surprise. We immediately felt as though welcomed into a gracious, lively home. The music, food, and owner are wonderful. I wish we lived in town - we would be here daily. Thank you for your hospitality and delicious food.

We were drawn to your accordionist, as Cindy (it's her birthday tomorrow) loves and would like to learn to play the accordion. We also have been hankering after falafels and did we have a DELICIOUS ONE and SPINACH PIE tonight. The ambiance was PERFECTO. Small town Americana and Old European... LOVE it! Many thanks for the memories and hope to see you again.

Elan, thank you for your warm hospitality and delicious food. It feels like having dinner at a friend's house (and a friend who is a very good cook!) We will be back!
- Donna and George, Meadow Vista

Our visit, after a long recording session cutting a CD, felt like coming to visit family - the food fed and the atmosphere relaxed. Reminded us of the 'Sheepherders' Inn' in Los Banos.

Fabulous food and very friendly service! We are from Santa Cruz and we think the gyros we had here were far better than the ones we have had back home :) Wonderful experience!

Mother's Day, May 13, 2012
We had our last Mother's Day Party with my 91-year-old mother who may leave us soon! Thank you for making our party so special! You are a very courageous woman. You have made a fantastic restaurant here and you have offered a rich cultural jewel for the town of Colfax. We appreciate your splendid ambiance and delicious food. Looking forward to your art gallery. We will tell friends and come back soon! Thank you!
- Becky, Meadow Vista


Elan, thank you for a pleasurable dining experience. The food (gyro) was excellent, and worth waiting for! Colfax is very lucky to have your charm and ability, along with outstanding cuisine.
- Jean and Dave, Auburn

We really enjoyed the ambiance, the music, and the beautiful food! Thanks for making our Mother's Day so special! This may be the last we get to spend with our Grandma. <3 See you soon.

Happy Mother's Day. We thought having one gyro each was not enough, so we ordered more. Oh my - it was all delicious and filling. Excellent food - we will be back.
- Bill and Ellie, Applegate

We enjoyed our experience here, and the food was awesome! Best of luck in the future and hope to see an art gallery here in the future.
- Heather

We arrived just as Elan and Sophia were opening. We were graciously welcomed. We had the authentic Gyros. We are cooks with a lot of experience with exotic foods. Our food today was really good! Great food served simply - we loved it. We will be back.

I am in bliss. The Turkish coffee is so soothing, very authentic. I will tell many more than 10 people and do my best to spread the word. This meal and atmosphere were the best.
- Rob Lynn

Just traveled up for a short drive from Auburn! We enjoyed the great hospitality that Elan showed us! We just loved Robert's accordion music, too. We're looking forward to enjoying more music, along with the yummy Dolmas and Turkish coffee. Thanks for a nice Sunday afternoon.
- Anita and Mike, Auburn

Not only is Elan a delight but the food is as well. Falling off the beaten track brought us to downtown Colfax. With purpose and joy we shall return. Thank you for a delightful afternoon.
