Hmmmmm well we ordered the chef meat and cheese, no where on the menu says anything about nuts. But when we got meat and cheese plate it was covered in nuts, mind you not just a little nuts in a bowl. No there was but covering every piece of meat… (we did have a nut allergy in our party). I looked over the menu to see if there was anything about nuts, but there was nothing… btw don’t order the tiramisu.Go to Stella’s, better apps, better pasta, better sauce, better tiramisu.

Drag Brunch was amazingly fun!Food was amazingly tasty!Service needed some serious help. Our server Conner needs to smile and be friendly. Not sure if he was having a bad day or if he's just in the wrong position.

Not an extraordinary experience. The burrata, which they're "kinda famous for", was a huge let-down. Really no flavor whatsoever. The lasagna and salmon were good, and the only saving grace of the evening.The space was cramped and noisy. When making the reservation, I requested a booth. When I mentioned this to the hostess, was told they were reserved for groups of 3 or more. Instead, were seated at a table so close to neighboring tables, we may as well have been sharing a trough!Service was completely lackluster. They tack on a 23% "hospitality", so apparently good service is therefore unnecessary.Definitely a "one & done" for us!

I found it absurdly expensive. 30 dollar bowl of pasta? Did the Pope make it? It used to reasonable. Not now. Go to Olive Garden.

Spent our third anniversary here. The food was fantastic. Especially the mushroom fusilli pasta. The service was fantastic and they even comped our appetizer for our anniversary. The only downside is they are charging the CHP (Creating Happy People) fee of about 22% of the bill. It seems a lot of restaurants are doing this now. I don't get it, or like it, but seems to be the norm now. I'd rather them just raise prices than add this awkward fee.

Food was great and served hot and fresh. The servers were amazing and attentive. We didn't reserve the private room for our big family, so it was hard to talk to everyone as it was so loud but that was more on us.

Our server mike was the best. We celebrated our 4 year anniversary. He not only helped with our meal and drink order, he also provided a fun and celebratory night.

I will never support a business that has a drag queen brunch on Easter Sunday. Very disgusting and disrespectful. Plenty of pasta and pizza anywhere else in Denver at better pricing as well.

The wine + the pasta *chef’s kiss* started with the ricotta, ended with the tiramisu. Delicious! You won’t regret a date night/girls night/anniversary/client dinner here.

Excellent food, really comfortable atmosphere, and great staff. I really appreciate the shared gratuity charge, much respect to those who worked to make that happen. Everyone on a restaurant’s team deserves a share of the profits. Hope y’all are paid well on top of it. Anyway, food was really really good.

Pizza was undercooked, would have sent back if I had the time.Drinks were good, though pre-made negronis are a shame at that price point.22% mandatory service fee as of March 2024.It's nothing special but with so few options on larimer square anymore I guess it's one of the better ones due to lack of competition. Nice interior.

Great experience and food.Service: great host and servers. Very organized and everyone knew their stuff.Food: Had the chefs combo, calamari and Shrimp Fra Diavolo. The chefs combo and calamari was a great appetizer for everyone to share. The shrimp far diavolo hit the spot for the entry.

Entrees were good! Our waiters switched halfway through dinner and the multiple mentions of a birthday celebration weren't communicated. Affogato was served w/o biscotti (as stated) and only after asking, we were told they were out. Dessert was subbed out and on the house. Espresso martini wasn't creamy and tiramisu was more like cheesecake. No fresh grated cheese or pepper offered, as typical for Italian spots... Likely won't return, nothing stood out as spectacular for an expensive dinner with 22% tip included.
