Carelli's offers a variety of delicious options, including a grilled salmon caesar salad and veal scaloppini, both cooked to perfection. The restaurant also serves a Steak Vesuvio that is well-prepared. The service can vary, with some experiencing friendly and attentive servers, while others have faced delays due to a busy kitchen. The restaurant features new booths and large portions that are often enough for two meals. The atmosphere in the front room is cozy and inviting, though some find the back room less appealing. Many guests appreciate the consistent quality of food, with appetizers like calamari and eggplant stacks receiving high praise. Main dishes, such as pasta with clam sauce and pasta Bolognese, are enjoyed, though some note that veal parm can be tough and may need reworking.
The restaurant is described as an "authentic" Italian gem, tucked in the heart of Boulder, Colorado. Reviewers mention that the food is consistently good, the portions are large, and the waitstaff is very attentive. The biggest disadvantage is the limited free available parking and the need to make a reservation, especially on weekends. Overall, Carelli's remains a popular spot for a special night out or a meal with friends.
