 We are pleased to announce that we’ve brought back our lunch service.

Lunch will be offered 11am-3pm Tuesday – Friday
Weekend Brunch will continue on Saturday & Sundays.
Dinner will be served from 3pm, with Happy Hour specials from 3-5pm daily.

 Our new lunch menu will feature some of our old favorites like the BLT on baguette, Spanish Salmon Nicoise Salad, house-made Veggie Burger and a few of our Brunch hits like Shakshouka and Croque Madame. We proudly serve local OZO coffee and our full bar of cocktails, Spanish and French wines will be available to make that lunch a little more special.

Our intimate sun-filled dining room is the perfect place for a midday catch-up with friends or to make an out of office professional connection.


Cafe Aion is a Spanish & Moroccan inspired restaurant on The Hill, near CU in Boulder, CO. We connect with these cuisines for 2 main reasons.

1. The Style of Eating - We love being able to sample a variety of flavorful bites and sips with our friends in an informal manner. Also, gathering around large shared platters (paella!) is a wonderful way to share a meal. Both Spain and Morocco celebrate this style of dining.

2. Though we have no coast, there are many environmental and agricultural similarities between Colorado and these countries.  We find local farmers and ranchers growing, peppers, onions, eggplant, lamb and many other wonderful ingredients that one would find in Spain and Morocco. Being able to cook traditional dishes with Colorado ingredients is the best!

Dakota Soifer - Chef/Owner- Drawing upon years of experience working in nationally acclaimed restaurants such as Zuni Café, Julia’s Kitchen, and The Kitchen Café—and a summer with Meadow Lark Farm Dinners—Dakota’s menus and cuisine reflect a philosophy of crafting the best quality food into simple, soulful bites.  Dakota combines a respect for and knowledge of high quality ingredients with a rare talent to craft them into immensely satisfying dishes.   He doesn’t rely on tricks to impress his guests; just experience, expertise, and an understanding of the finest local products. Although concise, his menu of small plates is thoughtfully put together in a way that accommodates all tastes. And with a menu that changes daily to reflect what is seasonal, available and fresh, an incentive to try something new is ever present.
-Dakota also won the popular cooking show Cutthroat Kitchen in season 4.
