The food was very good and we like the new menu pricing. Hannah, our server was the best! She made us feel welcome and never rushed.

We have always loved this place and were saddened to hear that it was slated to close. Thankfully the owner has retooled the menu and it continues to amaze us. The new menu is fabulous. The food quality is amazing and the service is spot on. Please go visit this wonderful neighborhood spot!

Awesome Italian food in a great setting on Colfax. Revamp of the menu has resulted in a better priced / higher value meal, without compromising on quality or taste. Great experience!

We decided to give this spot another chance, and we are so happy we did! The HH menu was fun, and we loved the Arancini (to die for). We also shared a pizza and had a few drinks. Our server, Charly, was so great with us and did a great job serving us in the rain. We will put this back on our rotation!

Pizza is good. Salmon added to salad was smoked and ruined the salad. Tiramisu was excellent.

Wow! We tried this place a year ago and felt it was so-so, especially for the price. We tried it again tonight and their menu/price changes have made such a difference. Every single dish was a knockout- my spouse and I tried the arancini, tagliatelle, salmon, margherita pizza and panna cota and we were blown away. Their mocktails aren't listed on the menu but ask for them if you're not drinking alcohol, we got the peach and the strawberry and both were very tasty. We will absolutely be back!

Hopefully Benzina will keep delivering an exceptional dining experience. Good food, friendly attentive service, reasonable prices. Unique spot on Colfax.

Food was delicious!! Some of the best gluten free pizza I’ve had in Denver!
Lori Anderson
Sorry no photos! Tried new menu last night. Chicken parm and also Hangar steak for our entrees. Delicious!! We just made reservation for next week but we are taking some friends along!

We haven't had a bad meal here since it opened. The new menu is yummy! The new additions are so good and the pizza is as fantastic as ever. Chef is amazing and we love that it feels like family when we go!
Went back after a long absence and we've already decided that we'll be back. Food and prices are in line, service was great. We had the Caesar salad which was crisp, cold and fresh, the chicken parm was crispy with a perfect amount of spaghetti on the side. The sauce had a very slight but wonderful, tomatoey sweetness to it. Matched perfectly. The carbonara pizza was delicious with the perfect amount of pancetta. Happy hour from 5-6. We didn't really want to bother with trying to park in the past, but at least while Colfax is still under construction, there's curb parking out front due to one lane being closed. Might get more difficult soon but may just Uber the short trip. Definitely worth a new visit.

We have dined at Benzina multiple times over the past year. The new menu offers more cost effective options for families and couples. The wood-fired pizza and Cesear salad is excellent and we always enjoy the cauliflower small plate. It is a dish unlike any I have ever tasted. Only criticism is the noise level. It was full on a Wednesday night and did get quite noisy inside.

We loved dining here. The homemade bread with the cacio de pepe and sardines were the main highlight for us- so delicious! We also enjoyed the market salad and the seasonal vegetable pasta but found them to be slightly over-salted. Otherwise, the flavors were fantastic. The service was great and we look forward to returning!

It was not very busy, as I'm not sure people know Benzina is now open on Sundays. We enjoyed the new menu and everything we tried.

We sat outside in the 90° heat & it was very comfortable. We love the new menu but ordered our old favorites
