29 Best Italian Restaurants near Denver

“Stopped in to relax after a long day with my wife. We were seated immediately. Another couple was seated after we were, and there drink order taken while we waited. Numerous waiters walked past and only looked at us. Waiter came back with there drinks and took there food order while we still waited. We finally said something and the comment was made, oh nobody waited on us yet and off she went. We finally stood up and left, and on the way out somebody was headed our way. While we were waiting 2 waitresses standing at the end of the bar on there phones. Great outdoor place, but last several times service has been horrible. More interested in talking to each other and being on there phones. Don't ask for more information on who it may have been as was asked in previous complaints, just fix it.“

“The food from CJ's is amazing, they have some of the best pizza in Ephrata and some of the best staff.“

“My family and I just had a wonderful time here. Food was great! Service was great. Cody S was great! He allowed us time to decide. We didn’t feel rushed. Totally recommend this place.“

“We had a great experience here! Excellent customer service, they were busy and right in the beginning they told us it might be a bit slower of service which was great communication and it really wasn’t slow in my mind. The owner was friendly and greeted everyone like family. Actually everyone felt like family in there- the atmosphere was amazing. Families, couples, older people, kids, everyone was there and it was nice! We had delicious food- chicken parm, a chicken lasagna with vodka sauce that was delicious and a delicious bowl of butternut squash soup! Bread was good too! We came here because we had a coupon but now we will be back more often! Thanks for providing excellent service and great food 👏🫶🏻“

“The food at this location is consistently on point. Well crafted sandwiches that leave you satisfied and wanting more. I had the Tuna and cheese hoagie tonight, but the inspiration for this review was tasting my son’s Chipotle Chicken Cheesesteak. It was so good.“

“Always good food and service when I go there!“

“Great food, the best Pizza & they have friendly service“

“This place has become mine and my families go to Italian spot lately. Pretty much order from here once a week and have not been disappointed. Everything we get is always delicious and top notch.

My favorite dish is the Ravioli Alla Maria . Tonight I got just your standard chicken and broccoli Alfredo. I had mushrooms added. Also got the hot and garlic wings.

Everything is amazing as always. Have ordered here enough times now to leave a review.

Best Alfredo sauce in the area IMO as well.

Recommend this place and definitely recommend the ravioli alla maria if you haven't got it yet, it's a must.“

“I ordered for pick up, the mixed cheese sub, with a light amount of cheese, and my order taker, a very nice sweet lady, said she’d go to the kitchen and make sure they put on only the three pieces of cheese I requested! I’ve ordered many times, and she’s always been so friendly and kind.“

“My family and I came to dinner last night for my birthday. The service was great and the food was delicious! Thank you for a good birthday experience!“

“I am originally from Philly and finding a cheesesteak in Lancaster County has been impossible! I have come to the realization that adding pizza sauce to a cheesesteak is the norm. Adding pizza sauce makes it a Pizza cheesesteak and I am often looked at as crazy when I ask for Ketchup instead of Pizza sauce. I have to say that this Pizza place has hands down the best damn cheesesteaks in Lancaster County. The rolls are not homemade from Pizza dough and are actually soft and delicious. My only complaint would be they are a little light on the meat but that's not going to stop me from visiting again. The older lady at the counter was personable. She greeted everyone with a smile as they walked in the door and her service was spot on! If she was having a rough evening, it didn't show. If you are looking for a REAL cheesesteak, this is the place. Just tell them to hold off on the Pizza sauce!“

“My favorite Sicilian Pizza!“

“Never got something here I did not enjoy. My husband and I both agree it is our favorite place!“

“I get the grandma pizzas every week and holy SMOKES…very good quality ingredients, masterfully proportioned cheese and toppings like REAL ITALIANS do…not sloppy with way too much stuff…just exactly right so the crust has some crisp but nothing is dry. The bruschetta has fresh, real, raw garlic in it (which is always a good sign of real Italian food flair!). This is my new place, and they’re gonna have to try real hard to get ridda me!“

“I was in town for an event / work and needed to grab a quick bite. walked into sal's ! the guy behind the counter took my order. I sat in the clean dining room. pizza was awesome! hot and fresh ! it hit the spot ! thank you sal's for the great lunch i will be sure to revisit when I am in the area again 😀“

“Been eating here once a week for a few years and whatever I order is always good!! Friendly people and food is fresh!“

“Love 💕 your food! Vince and all the employees are so kind and helpful!“

“It's been a while since I been here and it didn't disappoint either. I ordered the Special CheeseSteak and wow, Grand slam again!!! As I said before, Best outside of Philadelphia. Our waitress was the best too, Jordan, she had a great personality and was a real gem. Great job in the kitchen. Next time is pizza“

“We got our food pretty fast and it was pretty tasty. As soon as I got up to go get ketchup an employee was already bringing us some. Once we were done with our meal the same employee helped us put our trays away and throw out our trash. Overall very helpful. I definitely recommend.“

“Great pizza and a good atmosphere“

“The pizza is very good. I had the Margherita pizza. I loved it.“

“So glad we finally tried Dante’s 900 pizza! We had a margherita and a pizza Salute. Both were delicious and we will definitely be back!“

“Food and service was excellent. A bit pricy but plenty. Was my birthday and they put even a candle on my cake. Waitress was very nice and friendly. No complains at all.“

“great place to enjoy a super great meal. the food is out of this world. plus i want to thank them for allowing the car group to park in their ot to enjoy the groups meets. again. great food and thank you.“

“Danielle was our courteous server and made sure our visit went well. The facility is clean and has both indoor and outdoor seating. We had the Italian sausage and flounder entrees and both were plentiful portions and came with hefty sides. The sausage was spicy and the Caesar salad was a meal of its own. Only one bathroom exists for both genders so you may have a wait. Figure $30 per person.“

“Walked in and they're very friendly and helpful! Food came out fast and it was hot out of the oven. The food was amazing!!! Got a hot buffalo Stromboli. They are not skimpy with their food. It was the perfect amount of spicy, juicy, and delicious! And there wasn't that extra amount of dry crust like other people's Stromboli. Perfect!!!“

“This is our normal go to place to order pizza but today was a little special. We had ordered a large pepperoni pizza with the pepperoni in the shape of a number 4 for our daughter's 4th birthday today and a large cheese pizza. Not only did they make the 4 but they also left a little note for her in the box. Then when it was delivered the young man who delivered made sure to wish her a happy birthday. Thank you guys for doing this for her.“

“Love all their food. Especially their Stromboli and Pizza!!“

“We ordered burgers for delivery. They were outstanding! Perfectly cooked, delivery was right on time. The fries held up beautifully. Delivery driver (don't know his name, 😔)was so nice and friendly. We'll definitely be ordering delivery again. Thanx Paradise!“
