The Rack of Lamb was served atop potatoes. The Rack of Lamb was gorgeous in presentation & taste - the meat was outrageously succulent.
The Veal Meatballs were a comforting Italian dish - piping hot, incredibly tender & juicy.
The Rigatoni con Salsiccia was made with short tube pasta tossed with Italian sausage, caramelized onions, button mushrooms, and marinara.

This classic Italian dish was hearty, filling, & packed with great flavor. The al dente pasta was generously coated in creamy sauce.

My wife, her co-worker, and I came here for dinner. We each ordered something different from the menu.My wife ordered the chicken Marsala, her co worker ordered the soup and salad. I ordered the spaghetti with meat balls. All of our meals were delicious and prepared immaculately!The service of our waitress and the rest of the staff treated everyone equally well. The ambiance of the restaurant just puts you feeling like it's either a date night or business proposal over dinner.We definitely enjoyed having dinner here.

Located opposite the Union Station, this Italian restaurant is little gem in downtown Denver. Great vibe, chill and staffs are attentive and friendly.We've served the bread and crackers as starter, they've awesome with the balsamic vinegar and olive oil.We had polpo limone (grilled octopus salad), the grilled octopus was flavorful and with the right chewiness level. Paired with the fresh tomato and salad dressing, it's amazing.Lobster ravioli was great too, but it's a bit too much of starchy. We hardly can finish it.Overall it's a great dining experience

The is my fave Italian restaurant. Service, decor, ambience, the servers and just about everything is right here.Every time I come to this restaurant, I get the Beef Carpaccio. It is spectacular. They use filet mignon thinly sliced beef topped with arugula and underneath polenta which is served toasty.I usually tend to order the Bronzino. This time it was the Chilean Seabass in a white wine sauce, paired with assorted veggies, like asparagus and artichoke. My date ordered the Beef Bolognese. It was exactly as it tasted. We had some libations and ended our meal with crème brûlée and a shot of espresso. The food was divine.I'm never going to stop going to this restaurant until it closes, but I truly don't think it will.

We went here for a date night for my birthday and had one of the best dinner date experiences. We sat out on the patio and had it mostly to ourselves which was amazing. We got to people watch as it is right across the street from Union Station. Sabrina was amazing. Super bubbly, friendly and attentive. She was also very knowledgeable of the menu and made several great recommendations. The manager stopped by a couple times to check on our experience but I didn't get his name. The charcuterie and fromage board was amazing - one of the best I've had. The Aperol spritz and espresso martini were some of the best made cocktails we've had in a while. The Cesar salad and Insalata di Spinaci were fresh and amazing. The fresh bread served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar was super crumbly but yummy. My husband had the Spaghetti con Polpettine. I tried some of his entree and it was delicious - very fresh tomato flavor with pieces of roasted garlic and the meatballs were full of flavor. My entree was the Tortelloni alla Parmigiana and it was scrumptious. I ran out of bread otherwise I would've ate every last drop of the Gorgonzola cream sauce off my plate. Sabrina recommended her favorite Rose to go with my entree and it was the perfect pairing. They brought out a complimentary piece of Tiramisu for my birthday which was a nice touch for the end of dinner. We hope to be back soon and will highly recommend this place to our friends and family.

The food here was, simply put, absolutely divine. I came here with some friends to celebrate my birthday and every dish we tried was amazing! The service was honestly a little scattered, but they were very polite! The vibes from my seat were good, kind of a dark and moody upscale Italian kind of vibe-- however, there were TVs at the bar and an interesting-looking wine cellar behind the bar. I think I'd come back here to try every pasta dish on the menu-- the food was the biggest attraction to this place, but it's so good it makes up for the quirkiness in what I felt was a pretty upscale place. I can't wait to try everything else!

Beautiful indoor ambiance. Waitress was very good and quick. I ordered salmon even though there were a couple gluten free options (I'm gluten free, I went here for a work group meeting). The salmon was a little dry and not flavorful. My friends/coworkers who had pasta dishes from the restaurant loved their dishes though. It's an Italian restaurant - order the pasta!

SO glad my friend and I decided on this restaurant. It really did take me back to my time in Italy! Starting from the wall decor that showed a building in Venice right across from my hotel to the cozy dining room and solid service, the restaurant was fantastic. The meal exceeded my expectations as really good Italian can be difficult to find, in my opinion. We ordered bread service, split a delicious Cesar salad and both ordered pasta. The dish I ordered is shown below. It was absolutely delectable! There were several entrees that caught my eye and so it was tough to choose but I was VERY pleased. Given starting with bread and salad, I had a bit of my entree to take home with me. It was just as good the next day!Venice is a must do while in Denver! It's located directly across from Union Station so if you're staying outside of downtown but can catch a train to Union Station you can get to Venice by foot! (How appropriate given Venice, Italy is a walking city.)

I think this was the best food we tried in Colorado, probably the only place that compares to the NYC/LA level of food/service. We wanted to eat across the street but didn't like the ambiance so came here, it was Sunday evening and place was pretty full. We didn't make a reservation, and they had a nice table for us. Service was outstanding, guy was speaking half Italian and half English, which was pretty cool. We appreciated that even though we don't speak Italian. They brought fresh bread that was warm and very delicious. They also had a long wine list, so definitely can find what you like. We started with a salad (artichoke and mozzarella), was very well done and unique. We both had different types of seafood pasta, even though we were told that seafood in Colorado is not good we decided to order anyway, and we were pleased to have a great meal. Place is super pleasant and modern and also great location. Definitely recommend

Right outside Union Station, is this Italian restaurant that tilts towards the formal, though tourists like me, can walk in rocking jeans and a hoodie. The fried calamari was a bit unappetizing, though the presentation was again on the formal side. My entry was great. LINGUINE CON FRUTTI DI MAREIt was filling. The spices were right! It came out hot and felt as though the chef had a lot of pride in what he had just created. The waiter was great. He was spot on. Very professional and attentive. I would return here.
