I am relatively new to Denver and a friend in town suggested we go there this past week for dinner. I went with a group of 6 and we had a great time. The staff were very good at their job and amusing to boot. The best thing I liked was when one of us suggested we order an entree that the server did not feel was a good value, he let us know. The wine list had a very good variety of options at reasonable prices. Most of the list was under the 50 dollar mark. Overall the food was very good and the portions were huge. We enjoyed ourselves and I feel I have found a restaurant worth returning to in Denver which isn't as easy as I thought it would be.
Pros: great value for a group
Cons: relatively hard to tell who serves there since they do not have a uniform

We went back to Pagliacci's to celebrate 40 years of marriage... It was where I proposed 41 years ago... We couldnt believe how great it was! We have returned over the years, but tonight was extra special! The music, the ambiance, everything just fit perfectly... Our server Eric (recently from the Bronx) was no stranger to Italian food, and agreed with us that the food was top choice! AND IT WAS! The Veal Parm was fantastic, and the Minestroni... well, what can you say.. Perfecto!. Eric made our evening extra special... we really enjoyed ourselves with salad, soup, our entree, and of course, some spamoni to top everything off... Naturally, we'll return home with our Chianti basket bottle to stick the candle in as a reminder of an extra special reminder of this evening and our first experience at Pagliacci's ... Thanks to the chef, and to Eric, our server, for an extra special evening in Denver!
Pros: food, ambience, service, everything
Cons: none

I dined at Luca D'Italia recently with my husband after reading the owner/chef cured his own meats. The appetizer sampler was the only dish that was solely his own cured meats so I thought we would try just that. It was so amazing we stayed for more! Nothing we tried disappointed us... We shared different appetizers, a butternut squash pasta, a lasagna (not at all what you're thinking!) a tuna tartare... all were delightful. The chef came to our table and chatted with us and the service was excellent. It was such a special treat to go there.

We've tried the pizza all over Denver, and keep coming back to Parisi. The Margarita pizza is as good as anything we had in Italy. The crust is thin and crisp, the mozzarella is just to-die-for, and everything is fresh and in all the right proportions. I love all of the food at Parisi, but the Margarita is so good, I don't often stray to another pizza. But don't be afraid of the very affordable daily specials. I've never been disappointed.
Pros: Housemade mozzarella
Cons: Sometimes there is a wait

If you want a good Itailian Restaurant with no frills, Pasquini's will be perfect. We shared the large salad and 1 Calzone. The salad with Balsamic was excellent and the Classic Calzone was outstanding. The manager even came over to see if we were happy, which we were.
If you go make sure to get the chocolate mousse encased with a hard dark chocolate, it is addicting.
This place is highly recommended.
Pros: Great Food, Great Service, Great Desserts
Cons: small establishment

What a wonderful experience I recently had at this restaurant in Cherry Creek. Everything from the overall dining experience to the amazing, delicious food made me wish I had one in St. Louis to go back to! Our group enjoyed several of the dishes offered and not one disappointed! The bruschetta was unlike any I had ever had along with the panini's that were piled high with the freshest of ingredients. It was nice to wander into the restaurant and be treated like one of the family! Congratulations to Cherry Creek for adding this gem to the neighborhood. I can't wait to return to Denver!
Pros: Fresh Italian food in a relaxed atmosphere
Cons: There isn't one in St. Louis!

Wow!!! There is not a single thing I would change about this restaurant. That is rare for me to say. Usually there is something that missed. This restaurant is PERFECT!! Let's start as we get there. Complimentary valet parking...as we were trying to find a spot, we saw this and were excited. Little things, you know. We get in and we were missing one of our party (who didn't make it) and without missing a beat, we got sat at an appropriately sized table. This was just last night.
Now for the server, Andrew: he is getting his own paragraph. Anyone who wants to be a professional waiter, should sit at one of his tables and just observe. It was all about the little things, helping with wine selection, meal choices, everything. He understood the little nuances. When I questioned the bottle of wine, he even brought me a glass of something else to see if I liked it more. It turned out, the bottle was very young and just needed to open up. So, basically, the best waiter in town.
As for the food: Here is what was ordered: roasted tuna appetizer (absolutely phenominal-although Randolph's wraps are more to my tastes), the gnocchi with crab (absolutely amazing), NY Strip Steak (amazing by all accounts), Halibut (simply perfect) and my meal the seafood plate. This was the best meal, I have ever had in Denver. I cook a lot, and I eat out a lot. This was the BEST meal I have had in Denver.
So, the long and short of it, phenomenal.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing
