We really like this restaurant. We live down the street and are new to the neighborhood. We'd never eaten upstairs, it's a nice cozy dining room. Service was good, and the food was great. Fresh bread brought to the table, delicious salads and fried Calamari to start. We had the cheese ravioli with sausage and meatballs, chicken piccata and the mushroom pasta with shrimp. Everything was delicious! We will be back again and again, it's a wonderful and warm spot.

Family of four going for the first time. Logged on to get reservation the night before on a Friday for a Saturday, only two were left, and for good reason: The place is small and the food is fantastic. Service was great, the four dishes were all incredible (four cheese ravioli, pizza, sweet potato ravioli, and a chicken special) and desert was among the best we have had (having been fortunate to travel extensively). If there is a drawback, it is the level of noise, which is a 7/10 and due largely to the small size of the location. But it is definitely worth a trip.

Food was to die for. Portions were excellent, and my partner as well as myself both needed small to go boxes after eating one entree and appetizer each. If you enjoy sangria, both options are a true delight. Prices are very reasonable, considering fresh quality ingredients, excellent craftsmanship in their kitchen, and professional staff. I can't wait to go back!

Great waiter, great food! We love the neighborhood feel. They are always so welcoming and cheerful! Thank you Shells and Sauces for a delightful dinner!

Even on a busy night, the service was excellent and the food tasty and didn't take overly long. I had an issue with my order (my fault) and they were really good about re-doing it so we could eat together.
Jeanne
Crowded as always. It is really hard to get to the bar with the new benches they have installed. Once we moved to our table we were lucky enough to get the bartender to take our order. We never saw our waitperson. Barely made it to our show. Food was good, though.

This restaurant runs like a tight ship and it all starts with the man who manages the place and is there every night working as hard or harder than all of the staff. His example sets the tone for the care and amount of effort each staff members puts in to make the patrons experience wonderful.

We enjoyed our visit! All the food was very good, ( calamari, Brussels sprouts, shrimp scampi, veal, fra diavolo, and the special penne of the day ) I appreciated that they subbed out the spaghetti for spinach. The cheese cake was wonderful, and the drinks were all tasty. Great service, friendly staff.

Loved this quaint restaurant. Our server Jamie was super friendly and gave us great choices from menu . We will be back !!!
ALWAYS an excellent evening at Shells and Sauce. We've been going there for years and have never been disappointed. Would strongly recommend. The food (especially the daily specials) is outstanding. The service is consistently excellent. We will be returning again and again.

Disappointed with the dinner we experienced. The cavatappi we had was tasteless and could have been improved by adding some fresh herbs . The prices have increased by charging separately for chicken, fish or beef.. This is the second time in the last two months we have left feeling the quality of food has diminished in the past year. The wait staff was excellent.

Every time we're in Denver for work, we make sure to get a reservation at Shells and Sauce. The food always hits, the service is spot on, and the vibe is effortlessly cool. Plus the neighborhood is so cute—it's become our go-to spot in the city.
