Where the Food Comes First

Our Iranian-Persian owner started Babajoon's because he believed Colorado deserved access to authentic, high-quality Persian food — the kind he grew up with in Iran. That philosophy drives every decision: the Afghan saffron we import, the custom tandoori oven we built, the antibiotic-free meats we source. When you eat at Babajoon's, you're eating food prepared by people who genuinely care about what goes on your plate.

Babajoon's was designed with an open kitchen concept in mind, so our customers can enjoy seeing their food being prepared right before their eyes — including our bread, Taftoon, which is made from scratch and freshly baked in our custom-built tandoori oven.

Our custom-built tandoori oven is the heart of our kitchen. This traditional clay oven reaches the extreme temperatures needed to produce the authentic char and texture that separates real Persian bread from imitations. Watch the process through our open kitchen — Taftoon doesn't get more authentic than this.

At Babajoon's, we believe that great food should bring people together — friends, families, communities, and people of different nations.
