Excellent food and service! I am gluten free and had a ton of choices. Husband and I shared the Salmon and yellowtail crudo, NY salad, pork chop and black truffle pasta. It wasn't my first time here and it won't be my last.

Our server was great! I wasn't a fan of the meatballs but others at our table enjoyed their food

The dining room is beautiful. The hostesses were so sweet. Our waitress was fine. They make these little Parker house rolls that they give you that are fresh out of the oven with a little light oil. Delicious shrimp cocktail was next. It was delicious. I didn't love the aïoli the cocktail sauce, however, was yummy in my mind. It could've been a little bit spicier next came a Caesar salad. It was lovely dress just right with little slices of lemon and toasted breadcrumbs it was great then we had a red pasta with meat sauce. It was delicious and my husband had a curly pasta that was pretty awful. We both thought it was bland. It was super oily. I had very little flavor sadly bar fantastic and that was our experience last night. Would we go back there yes would we get the pistachio pesto pasta no but I'm sure the fish and meats would be wonderful. We're gonna definitely give it another go.$$$

Our server, I believe Cali? Was absolutely wonderful! She made our experience for our friends birthday so special! We had someone with us with a specific allergy, and not once did we have to worry, our server made sure to make us aware of any possible allergens. Great night, great food, great server!

We keep coming back! The spicy lobster pasta is our favorite dish but everything I've tried so far is delicious. This is one of our few go to places here in Denver. We always bring our family here when they are in town.

We had an amazing experience at Quality Italian in Denver while celebrating our wedding anniversary! Although the restaurant was slightly loud for us, the service was impeccable and the food was delicious. The staff had a number of small and thoughtful touches throughout the dining experience that helped make our celebration very special. Highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning!

Steak was very well prepared. The lobster pasta comes with a fun flambe presentation, and it was quite tasty although it was not spicy at all even tho I'd been warned multiple times by staff that it had a kick. Service was very slow throughout the night with long lags between courses, only to later overhear staff complaining they needed to turn tables faster -- a legit issue but awkward to hear when we weren't the ones causing the slowness. During the long lags we entertained ourselves admiring the interior decor that seemed yanked from Fritz Lang's Metropolis. Pro tip: hauling out the occasional dead worker on a stretcher would really complete the vibe. When we got bored with the interior design we could then kill a few minutes going into another building, another floor, to find the nearest bathroom. But when the food did come, it was tasty.

Great service, good food. The whipped ricotta was fantastic. The bottomless Bellinis were ok, not the best. The juices were given on the side and you pour your own. Seemed like a great idea but it was not my fav. Overall, a good place to go for brunch.

Other than the lights being very dim, this place is amazing. From the food to the service, the cost is fair for what you're getting.

Great service and experience overall! The portions are quite small for the price though. The food was incredible!
Great service, our server Jessica was very attentive and pleasant, food was great and they whipped ricotta cheese was wonderful.

The restaurant has a cozy, old world atmosphere. Service was good - Server was very knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered two fish dishes which were enjoyed (salmon and branzino); the chicken dish was mediocre - lots of bone in the pieces, hard to eat and nothing special. The pesto pasta dish was not liked by one of our diners. The holiday squash and peppermint ice cream dessert were lovely. The table bread is oily and decidedly un-Italian. Would have preferred a fresh, unadorned Italian bread. Overall, a pleasant experience but not necessarily a WOW.

Our server was fantastic - so friendly and gave great suggestions. The food was wonderful, the Chicken Parm Pizza was amazing. Definitely worth a visit!

We ate at Quality Italian last night and it was hands down one of the best meals we've had in Denver. We started with the sausage and toast appetizer, and I'm still thinking about it. The flavor profile was absolutely perfect—a little spicy, a little sweet, incredibly savory, and just perfectly balanced. I could honestly eat that dish every single day. It set the tone for the entire meal. For entrées, we had the Filet Mignon, which was outstanding. It came topped with fresh herbs and tons of roasted garlic, and it was cooked beautifully. We added the tableside truffle butter, which was shaved right in front of us and was absolutely delicious—rich without being overpowering and a perfect complement to the steak. We ordered the broccoli as a side, and it deserves its own mention. It was charred and smoky with incredible depth of flavor—simple, elevated, and done exactly right. We also had the Chicken Parmesan Pizza, which was such a unique and amazing dish. The crust itself is made from chicken parmesan, and it was absolutely delicious. It came with a salad and several herbs and spices to add on, which made the experience interactive and even more enjoyable. For dessert, we shared the salty pistachio gelato with sour cherries and pizelles, and it was phenomenal—sweet, salty, creamy, and perfectly balanced. To finish the night, my fiancée had the peppermint tea, and I had a decaf macchiato, which were both great ways to wrap up an already incredible meal. The service was excellent. Brian, our waiter, was very busy but still incredibly accommodating and attentive, which we really appreciated. The ambiance was fantastic—upscale but comfortable—and they even validated our valet parking, which was a nice touch. Overall, this was an absolutely incredible dining experience. If you're looking for exceptional Italian food in the Denver / Cherry Creek area, this place is a must. We highly recommend it and are already looking forward to going back soon.

We love the location and atmosphere. Ordered 3 appetizers and 3 different entrees. My daughters liked the Branzino. The lobster pasta was sweet and finished table side after other entrees delivered so others have to wait to eat. My husband and I found it sweet and didn't care for the sauce. It comes with two mini lobster tails which was more than we'd thought. Our other pasta was definitely al dente (really needed another minute or two). That sauce was good. The calamari appetizer felt like we were eating chicken fingers as so much crispness. The charred octopus was decent. Nice smoke flavor but not amazing. The yellowtail was quite good. Struggled to find entree I wanted, especially with pasta choices. Not in a hurry to return unfortunately. Waiter was kind but not around often so perhaps they were understaffed for a Monday night.
