We gathered here on Friday night around 6:30 for a meal together with friends. I must say, the environment is to die for, and the staff is very bright and knowledgeable. Wonderful service. We took our time, stretching dinner for almost 2 hours. The appetizers, including homemade breadsticks and a rosemary roll, were so phenemenal, I'd go again just for drinks and appetizers. The salads and first courses were also superb. The entrees tended to be a bit too salty and were outdone by the previous courses, but what an event. I wouldn't say that the main meal was to die for as far as tastes go, but twas saved by the whole experience of the courses beforehand.

This is one of my favorite places to go with friends - the food is consistently good, the atmosphere is fun and the service is impeccable. HOWEVER, you must make a reservation early in the week as it is highly popular!! The duck entree is to die for.... Pros: consistent good food, good service, valet parking Cons: often fully booked so you need a reservation!

We first tried Barolo for wine and dessert a few years ago and were very happy. We just never made it back until it turned out to be an emergency stop last night after a bad experience at Luca. The staff were very friendly and accomodating, the food was fantastic (especially the quite interesting octopus terrine and their braised duckling), and the ambiance was nice, particularly the fact that even in a crowded restaurant, you don't necessarily feel on top of the other diners. We'll be back to Barolo Grill and we'll be recommending it to our friends. Pros: Excellent regional Italian food, good wine list, delicious desserts Cons: Can be busy for walk-ins

Just Googled Barolo and was amazed that the Google average was 3 and a hlaf stars. (Not so here on Citysearch). So I felt I had to comment. This is one of the finest restauants in Denver. My wife and I take out of town friends here all the time. We also dine there occasionaly, and sometimes stop without a reservation to have salads and appetizers at the bar (like many others do). There have been a couple of times that the food was not superb, just fantastic, but I have NEVER had a bad experience here. Service is always exceptional. The wine - for Italian wines - cannot be matched in many restaurants in this country. I just made a reservation for the wine room for my wife's 60th birthday (60 IS the new 40). If you have never been, don't miss it. If you had a bad experience, it was one in a million. Barolo is a Denver Landmark. Pros: An exceptional dining experience Cons: Can't get a table if you don't have a resevatin - dine at the bar

Barolo offers an exceptional dining experience for any occasion, but really can't be beat for a special romantic evening. The food is wonderful, the service outstanding, the wine list flawless, and the atmosphere unique, especially in this seemingly loud and raucous trend in so many establishments. Blair Taylor the owner is usually on hand and very approachable, in fact he'll probably check in with you first! For a perfect romantic touch, ask for the table next to the fireplace...tale lussuria! Pros: Great food, exceptional service, wine recommendations, private dining, fireside dining, romantic, private room for large groups Cons: Can't think of a one

We just moved to Cherry Creek and noticed how busy it always was at Barolo's, so we thought we would try it. You definitely want to make a reservation, unless you go in after 9pm. We were seated promptly and had great service. Our waiter was extremely knowledgable about everything on the menu and every bottle of wine from their 20+ paged wine list. The menu is changed weekly and is set up with the typical Italian 3 course meal. The Gnocchi was delicious, they found the recipe in a small town in northern Italy. It is made with a cream cheese only found in that part of Italy. Could be the best Gnocchi I have had since I went to Italy 4 years ago. The staff of Barolo's actually travels to Italy every April for 2 weeks to discover new recipes and get the essence of the country. The atmosphere has a cute italian theme, we were seated in front of the fireplace which made for a very romantic evening. Go There!!! Check it out!!!! Ask for suggestions!!!!! Pros: EVERYTHING!!!!!

My fiance and I recently dined at Barolo Grill to celebrate my birthday. This was our first trip to the restaurant and we found that we were greated promptly upon arrival and seated immediately. Our waiter was very informative and had some very good recommendations. We recently returned from Italy, so we were anxious to compare our experiences. We were very impressed as they definitely tried to keep it as close to Italian dining as possible, with a slight deviation here and there. The only downfall to the dining experience is that at the booth we sat at, we felt very far apart and perhaps the table was a little too large and the atmosphere was not overly romatic, but rather peaceful. We will return. Pros: Great italian food Cons: Parking somewhat difficult

My boyfriend and I went to Barolo Grill on Friday night--I had been there before (a long time ago) and he had never been. I remembered the place as romantic, with wonderful food and service, and I was not disappointed. Our server, Andrew, was attentive but not fussy, and although I didn't take his wine suggestion, was able to bring me exactly what I was looking for in a half bottle of Chardonnay. The mussels were perfect, and my date commented that he could've had a whole meal of the mushroom pasta. We were late to our 8pm reservation, but it was not a problem, and was handled extremely well. If you are looking for an absolutely smooth evening out, in a romantic room, THIS IS THE PLACE. Cons: Parking is awkward-we took a cab

We had an outstanding meal at Barolo last night with friends from the Denver Art Museum. The restaurant setting is nice - comfortable / casual but upscale, with great light from the wall of windows facing the street. We had a large table (there were seven of us), but we didn't feel out of place or notice anyone else in the restaurant even thought the place was packed. The food is upscale northern Italian - a traditional multi-stage meal (appetizer, salad, pasta, main dish, dessert.) The pacing was perfect - the food was delicious. I had a prawn and fried baby artichoke salad, green salad with goad cheese, and pasta with mushrooms and truffles. I finished up with a yellow blossom tea - I was too full for dessert. While we don't drink wine, they claim to have the third largest Italian wine list in the US. Several other folks with us were wine drinkers - they all seemed to havea great time.

My wife and I just went to Barolo for dinner. We went on a Wednesday night, so we arrived at the time of our reservation and were seated immediately. We had a great waitress who made us feel like we were the only customers there. We did the four course dinner which was incredible. This is one of Denver's best restaurants and it really makes it nice that it isn't part of a nationwide chain. I've seen the wait on the weekends and it looks like a mess, so just avoid it and go on a week night. Once again, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Pros: Food, Service, Wine Cons: Parking
