This is a great, not-too-fancy dinner choice in a fantastic location at Larimer Square. It's perfect for business dinners, or meeting up with old friends. I love the downstairs dining room, and the casual vibe, coupled with great service, excellent drink options and scratch-made entrees. I'll keep going back!

Our waiter Eric was wonderful. Personable and knowledgeable about the menu. The table shared a couple of appetizers and salads and each our own entrees. The food was so yummy and portions very fair. We will definitely go back!

We love Osteria Marco! It's got a cool vibe, always great service and it's the best Italian food we've had. Can't recommend it enough!

The roasted squash and pomegranate mixed greens salad was the best thing I've eaten in a long time! I can't stop talking about it!

Went here before a show at the DCPA. The food was good, the drinks better, and the service better still. Had a great dinner. The waiter was attentive without being intrusive. Would dine here again.

We wanted a simple night out for pizza and wine, and Osteria Marco delivered. Great Caesar Salad and Prosciutto and Arugula pizza. The selection wines by the glass were limited but very good. I had a glass of Nebbiolo followed by a glass of Super Tuscan, while my bride had a Chardonnay and Vermentino. All were delicious!

We went for drag bingo yesterday, and the welcome, the service, the performances, and the cocktails were all incredible! The trouble was I ordered chicken n waffles, and received 1 waffle w a little chicken on it for $19. I looked around before ordering to see plates before making a decision, and thought I was on the right track but what I received for $19 was not good. I should've said something to my server but I didn't (that's on me). Again, everything else was so great! That part was the bummer, and we will be back but probably not order any food or just a shareable & cocktails.

This is our go to spot before performances at the DCPA (ballet, musicals, orchestra, etc.) and have been here dozens of times over the years. Last night, our experience was awful. While the food and atmosphere are always good, the overall service by the staff was horrendous. First off, the hostess was incredibly rude. The server (Bennett B) was inattentive, condescending, interrupting, and rude. He ran away before we could fully order, didn't take our drink order until after we finished our appetizer, brought the incorrect place settings for our order, and was so slow, we nearly missed our showtime! Plus the automatic addition of their 22% CHP (Creating Happy People) “fee” which is described as “not a tip”. An additional 22% is way too high and acts as a de facto “tip” giving the staff free rein to provide awful service! Doubt we ever go back. We've had better service at fast food restaurants!

Lovely experience overall! The server was attentive, polite, and professional. We had panini's for lunch and they were delicious and huge. A great price for the size of the sandwich. We'll definitely return.

Great place for special occasions! Food is awesome and wait staff goes above and beyond to make sure your dining experience is perfect!

Setup a reservation for 7 and they accomodated us beautifully. We had a time crunch with an Avalanche game start and they fired everything quickly so we got to enjoy a multi-course meal and still made it to puck drop. Every person we interacted with was friendly and efficient! We will absolutely dine here again. The shrimp fa diavolo was the perfect size and flavor, I ended up using a pizzza crust to clean the bowl so I could get more of the sauce.

Karen

Food was very salty. They did take off the appetizer however the main course it's just as bad.

Leslie

DELICIOUS! Homemade burrata and bread, hand rolled pasta, quality salads, this place was super yummy!

Anna

Experience was amazing, loved the outdoor seating. Mike was awesome, great recommendations on wine and food. Would definitely recommend!

Food and service is terrific. My only suggestion would be some noise-reducing wall coverings in the back area, where noise echos off the brick walls. As this is the area most likely to seat larger groups, even more the reason it is needed.
