50 Best Italian Restaurants near Northglenn

“Huge variety of food and all dishes are delicious.“

“Fazolis is one of my favorite, unfortunately rare fast food restaurants these days. We were flying through Denver when our regional flight was canceled and we decided to rent a car. On our drive up we saw the Fazolis on our map and decided to make the stop we hadn’t in years. I did set my expectations low because of the chains issues.

THIS location however blew me away. The food was incredible. Better then some sit down chain Italian restaurants out of the water. The Person who took our order “Donale” as it stated on the receipt an older lady working mid day on a Friday. Was one of if not the nicest service workers I have ever met. She seemed genuinely happy to have us in. Made me feel incredibly welcomed.

If I was local to this restaurant id be here regularly. This Fazolis reminds me of what I remember from Fazolis and thats Great Food friendly service at a phenomenal price.“

“Great food and even better service! Chelsea is amazingly knowledgeable about the menu and beer choices. Helped me decide some great pairings. I was thoroughly impressed! Just outstanding! I will be back for sure, and next time will bring friends! Thank you, Chelsea!“

“Great! We had our food delivered and the guy was early (less than 45 minutes per our order). He was handing the food to my husband and he dropped the food. He apologized so many times said that he was going to make it right and have our order remade. Most places would have dusted the food off and called it good. He came back in a flash and was super nice. The pizza was large and amazing. The toppings are big and yummy. The ranch is delicious! We also got the garlic cheese things - amazing. Maybe more cheese if possible but still amazing The wings— eh. My husband said they tasted like they were microwaved. Besides that this is our new favorite place.“

“Wow Sputnino, thanks for a truly stellar experience! Our server, Matthew, and the rest of the team made us feel so special during our celebration, going above and beyond for everything. I can’t say enough kind words about the impeccable service or the amazing food. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and reminding us what a wonderful dining experience you can have with the right staff who care. Keep doing everything you are doing“

“Everything is fabulous!!!“

“Ordered drinks, waiter returned for order, appetizers arrived, no drinks, server said bartender was busy, drinks came halfway through appetizers, gave us bill and dessert at same time, no acknowledgement of birthday… made a deal of checking beforehand“

“Had an amazing dinner and an amazing server Noah!!! 10/10 experience!! Every bite of food was amazing and everyone was excited to eat their leftovers!!“

“Delicious food especially the lasagna. Amazing desserts.“

“It is a fairly different concept for ordering and seating so just be prepared. It would probably move quicker if the food sucked but it’s amazing and that’s why there is a crowd. It’s worth it and the food does come out pretty fast. The pricing was fantastic for the value as well.“

“Most authentic hit the spot made with love Italian food I have ever eaten in all of Colorado absolutely astonished with everything I’ve eaten here never disappoints if I could I’d give them 10 stars absolutely delicious🤤 ♥️🙌🏽“

“We had a fantastic experience at Venice! We’ve lived in Denver for 20 years and we never knew this place existed. Great atmosphere and the food was amazing, so authentic! We went with our 3 kids (13, 10 and 10), they ordered off the kids menu and loved the fettuccini Alfredo. The service was excellent, and our server, Gillian was on point. I can’t say enough good things about him. We will most definitely be back. I would recommend this place to anyone. This place is really nice and intimate feeling. Great for a date night or a family dinner, so long you have well behaved kids who love good food.“

“Love this place! Great service and fantastic food!“

“The food is excellent!!! I highly recommend if you’re a pasta lover!“

“We went for lunch or the first time today and had the amazing lunch. We eachhad the lunch special, which includes a specialty Pizza and a salad of your choice for starting at $14.50. I had the funguy Pizza, which is a Mushroom Pizza. It was absolutely amazing. I ordered mine without arugula , as I do not perfer that. It was so good that I ordered a full size to take home for dinner. Our server was Jordan and she was awesome. Very friendly and knowledgeable. The only downside I have to say is that their drinks were just okay. We had a Italian spritzer that was kind of tart, and then I ordered a Vodka martini, which they said they do not commonly make, and I could tell why... I sent it back and ended up getting a glass of red wine but the pinot noir was mediocre at best. I think management should up their Wine selection and quality, if they're going to pair with Italian dishes. I would definitely go back and order more Pizza and the meatballs look amazing as well.“

“We received a gift card from a family member at Christmas and decided to use it on a Saturday night in January. The restaurant was packed but there was seating in the bar area, so we decided, what the heck(!) and went to the bar. Once seated we were greeted with the friendliest bar staff, Marissa and Tiernan. We wanted a glass of red and Marissa recommended the Porta Vita Italia. It is a delicious bargain and we were so impressed (and now hooked!). Our food was and continues to be great, as now we have become Saturday night regulars! We are Italian and honestly did not think we could get a traditional and tasty meal at a chain. Marissa and Tiernan, thank you for the excellent, friendly customer service and sweetness. You both are classy, sassy and super bad-**sy! We always look forward to our Saturday nights hanging with you both! See you next time, Cheers!“

“Our visit last night was not the experience I was hoping for. We have gone to Amici's for years. Our first time was way back when they were still at 53rd. and Sheridan. I had the eggplant parmesan, which was very good. I don't know if the kitchen staff changes, or what? The eggplant portion was very small, three slices of eggplant the size of a silver dollar.“

“We picked up pizzas for a large group activity. They were super kind, we had to wait a little bit for the pizza but we ordered a lot. So we had no problem waiting. The owner is very nice and helpful, the workers carried the pizzas to the car was very nice. Also best cannolis I have ever had, definitely freshly made.“

“the food was really good and the staff was friendly a little bit overpriced but other than that a really good experience“

“Delish food and great service all in a beautiful but comfortable setting.“

“I came to Denver from New Jersey for a Storm Chaser Convention, we have a couple steak houses back home but nothing comes close to this, I ordered a ribeye steak with a side of fries, the steak was cooked to perfection with the fat of the steak being glorious. I really wish we had something like this back home, the staff was welcoming and very kind. Thank you for the wonderful experience!“

“This place is a hidden gem. The good news is there is a strip mall parking lot across the street because on street parking is scarce. The bison meatballs are excellent and the Ceasars salad is good. I had the steak with gnocchi and it was excellent! The gnocchi was home made and flavorful. My wife had the pasta rigate and the sauce was amazing and the noodles were homemade. We will be back soon to try more!!“

“Absolutely amazing food. I had a great date tonight and I was so glad that we were able to be at your restaurant. Great chicken scallopini with mushrooms and great red wine :-). Our waiter was outstanding!“

“This past Friday night at the Denver Airport, I had THE BEST PIZZA I’ve had since I was in Rome 15 years ago! The crust was so light, so tender, I thought it might fly away. Incredible service too!“

“We went to Bucatino Trattoria for their Valentine's Day dinner special. It was so good! I loved the lobster ravioli and the yummy tiramisu. They were quite busy but the service was very good. This place has become one of our favorites.“

“The pizza is phenomenal! We had a thin crust, pepperoni, sausage(made in house), mushrooms, garlic and jalapeños. FANTASTIC The servers are so attentive and personable. Make you feel like you’re home. I’ve heard great things about this place and I believe they’re all true! I’m definitely going back ! Our server Cecily was the best. So friendly and fun!“

“Stopped at the Aurora location on whim. Under new management. Amazing food and lovely family owned business. Took home some extra dishes for later. Give it a try!“

“Fresh Food, Friendly Quick Service, Always love Lechugas!😋🥰🤗“

“Love this pizza! The crust was amazing too. The Owner was so nice and took the time to answer my questions, extremely friendly and helpful. The order was perfect and driver came right on time. Food was warm and fresh. We ordered the 16” Greek pizza, chicken Alfredo pasta and meat sauce pasta. Pastas came with cheese bread/sauces. They have free delivery, which was a huge plus! We did tip the driver in cash though. Not sure if that can be added to the order for next time. Will definitely be ordering again soon.“

“Service was on point … a simple glance at a staff member was enough to bring them over to check on our needs . That added to a great menu, delicious food and great company made this birthday dinner truly pleasurable! Grade A“

“It’s rare for a restaurant to truly set itself apart from the competition, but this Olive Garden did exactly that and then some. From the moment we walked in, the ambience transported me far from suburban Denver and straight into what felt like a warm Italian vista, the kind my great-grandfather Lepolni would’ve proudly shown off.

Our server, Luke, was an absolute standout. He made us feel instantly at home, balancing professionalism with a friendly, welcoming energy that elevated the entire night. It felt less like we were being served and more like we were being hosted.

And let’s talk about the food — incredible. The gnocchi was perfectly tender, the breadsticks were dangerously addictive, and the stench wafting from the kitchen was honestly amazing in its own right. Not a bad smell no, no. I’m talking about that rich, savory, almost mythical cloud of garlic, butter, and simmering sauces that hits you like a warm hug from a distant Italian relative you didn’t know you had. It set the tone for the whole meal.

The entire experience was unexpectedly charming from the atmosphere to the service to the company. (And yes, the person I came with wasn’t too bad-looking either, lol.)

All in all, I’d give it a solid nine out of ten, with bonus points for nostalgia, comfort, and those deliciously overwhelming food aromas. Thank you, Olive Garden, for creating such a lovely night for my friends and me and thank you Luke K. for being the heart of the experience. I’ll definitely be back.“

“We just had a wonderful anniversary lunch here — and while the food was fantastic, the service made it even better. Emmanuel was kind, conscientious and thorough. He said he was training but he served us like a seasoned pro — and not to sound corny, but really made us feel like family. We will be back for the delicious chicken parm and request Emmanuel’s section!

The free dessert for our anniversary made us feel very very special. Thank you OG & Emmanuel!“

“Huge Thank You to the whole crew for amazing service last night! How many restaurants can you call at 7:45 at night and ask if they can accommodate up to 40 people this one right here! We were in town for a youth wrestling tournament and were staying next-door at the hotel. We called them and asked if there was a possibility and they said sure come on down. We will have you set up in our banquet room. Arrived at 8:30 and had us all out of there by 10. Nobody waited for food or drinks and the food and staff were all amazing.!! Thank You Montrose Elite Wrestling“

“I was eating at this restaurant one evening when it was packed with people. Lindsay waited on us and was so attentive while all were running around frantic. Please request her when there she is the best“

“Mici's is great. I recently had to call MIci's because I hadn't received my order and discovered that it was listed as delivered. I have mobility issues and couldn't go around the neighborhood to find it so the manager sent one of his employees to my house to find the order for me. They were pleasant, kind, and went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure my order was taken care of. Mici's gave me such good customer service, and I am so thankful to have them in my neighborhood.“

“good food, good service, reasonable price.“

“Great pizza and excellent staff. Thank you for the best pizza in Denver.“

“My husband and I are from Colorado Springs and we had family in town from Maryland and we took them to Lou’s this past Thursday for lunch. My husband and I have never been there either. What a WONDERFUL experience and the food was INCREDIBLE!!! My husband and I bought the premade rigatoni bolognese to take home for a dinner after our family left. This evening when we went to cook it we weren’t sure on the temperature or timeframe. I called Lou’s and the gentleman remembered us and gave me instructions. Super Awesome folks with delicious food. Thank you guys for the help over the phone with cooking instructions. We will definitely be driving to Denver again to frequent this establishment. 10 out of 10 for sure. YOU GUYS ROCK!!!“

“The bartender is great! Very friendly environment.“

“Went to the Plimoth for the first time last night! What a Culinary treat. Farm to table food created by a chef that owns the restaurant. Highly recommend!“

“I love this place, but the amount of times I've gone to place an order on a Monday only to realize they're closed...? My love of their food seems to trump my memory of their hours. It's a huge bummer, every time. I don't support this decision. Be open on Mondays, ffs.“

“This place makes great pizza and is super consistent. Love that they offer pizza by the slice. Also, the cannoli is sooo good! Great customer service here as well, Maxwell is always friendly and helps with menu decisions. Highly recommend !“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brooklyn’s Finest Pizza — The Name Says It All! I don’t usually write long reviews, but when a business truly goes above and beyond, they deserve to be recognized — and Brooklyn’s Finest Pizza absolutely does. I ordered two pizzas recently, and one came out a little different from what I had requested. Totally understandable — mistakes happen! But the way this team handled the situation completely blew me away. From the moment I arrived, the manager personally came out to meet me and immediately apologized, even though I told him there was no need to. It was such a small mix-up, but they treated it as an opportunity to make things right and to make sure my experience was nothing short of perfect. You can really tell that everyone at Brooklyn’s Finest Pizza takes pride in what they do. The entire staff is upbeat, kind, and genuinely happy to be there. There’s a contagious positivity in that place — every single person is friendly, professional, and welcoming. It’s rare to find a restaurant that not only makes great food but also makes you feel good being there. Now, let’s talk about the food — because it’s on a whole other level. The pizza alone is hands down the best in Colorado — perfect crust, flavorful sauce, melty cheese, and fresh toppings that taste like they were just picked. But the Italian food? Oh my goodness. It’s absolutely amazing. From the pinwheels to the chicken parm, the Stromboli, spaghetti, and meatballs — every dish is phenomenal. You can taste the care and authenticity in every bite. It’s real, homemade-style Italian comfort food done to perfection. A big shoutout to Carlo, the owner, for building such an incredible team and for training his staff to not just serve food, but to serve an experience. It’s clear that he takes pride in what he’s created — a restaurant where the quality of the food and the quality of the service are equally top-tier. Brooklyn’s Finest Pizza has earned a lifelong customer in me. Between the unbeatable food, the friendly staff, and the exceptional service, this place sets the standard for what every local restaurant should strive to be. If you haven’t tried them yet, do yourself a favor — order a pizza (or two!) and some of their Italian dishes. You’ll see exactly why this place truly lives up to its name. Thanks to the Denver location on Lowell across from Regis.“
