    SERVICE: The waitress Jennifer was very AMAZING and kept up with our table great. She was so nice and funny. The hostess was nice as well. 10/10 service !!! DRINKS: Black berry smash - very good 7/10 Best damn lemon drop…period - tasted like the lemon was a few days bad. But I love a good sugar rim Black Cherry Soda - Rocky Mountain Craft Soda 10/10 FOOD: Kitchen sink Salad - warm salad… the vinaigrette had no flavoring tasted only like olive oil and the sweet drop peppers were not it. Bruschetta - topping was okay.. but the bread was soft so we didn’t even finish the appetizer. Big Huge Giant Garlic Knots - Not Big, Huge or Giant but they had a good amount of garlic and cheese flavoring and spices. The inside was super soft. Gluten Free Bread & Dip - eh wouldn’t eat again. Tastes like garlic paste

    Absolutely fantastic experience here tonight! Each week my friends and I try a new restaurant and this place had been on my list for quite some time. The gluten free options here are UNBELIEVABLE. There aren’t many places you can find gluten free ravioli and this joint offers it along with many other options. Almost everything on the menu can be modified to be gluten free. So grateful! Also got a side of the Garlic Parmesan risotto which was incredible. I stopped eating 1/2 way through just because I wanted to experience it a second time. The food here is delicious, came out hot, and the service was second to none. We will be back… more than once!

    A pleasant brunch experience. For a Saturday morning, we were happy to find it was not over-crowded. Flavorful food and good service. The bacon board stood out among the other breakfast items we ordered.

    This was an absolute find of a restaurant in Denver. Lighter Italian fare in a modern deco environment, food was excellent and atmosphere and service were A+++ The wedge salad and friend ravioli were the biggest stars in our dinner..

    Service was great despite there only being 1 server. The food is also very good and had great flavor, especially the Calzone. All the pasta is from a box but the sauce is fresh. Seems like it would be doable to make the pasta themselves but I'm not about them how to run their clearly successful business. This is a great spot for any occasion with decent prices and an excellent happy hour as well. Everybody needed a box since the serving sizes are huge, which definitely is a plus getting 2 meals out of what could be 1 meal somewhere else. Give this place a shot and see if you had as great of an experience as we did!

    The food was delicious and up to the mark. Loved the appetizer with prawns and nachos. Didn’t have to wait for long time though we went without reservation.

    My partner and I had a fabulous time on our date at Abrusci's. The atmosphere inside was great, plenty of parking, nice bathrooms, cleanliness and the kitchen was nice too. We liked the seating and arrangement of the tables. The staff was very on point and our favorite part of the place. The male host was very friendly and accommodating, and stylish. The server was on top of things and friendly, and the manager was very very sweet and friendly and helped us out in every way to assure we were happy. You can tell they are big on team work and people having a great dining experience. The food was good. I only wished that the pasta sauce had a little more flavor and thickness. We really liked the fire pizza it was delicious! Highly recommend this spot for dine in. Will return.

    Went here for Valentine's Day dinner. The service was great and so was the food. We started off with the antipasti and followed with 2 pasta dishes. The one below was a spicy shrimp pasta. The flavors were so good and fresh! I'd love to come back if given the chance. Pasta dishes were under $20, but getting a wine or drink, that puts you at $20-$30 a person.

    Locally owned restaurant that hits all the marks when you're craving Italian food! If you're wanting pizza, pasta, or more then I recommend checking this spot out. The Chicken Marsala was one of the best I've had in a while! The Rigatoni & Sausage was exactly what we wanted when it came to pasta. I love that there is an option to get all the pasta dishes baked! The Wedge Salad was also the perfect appetizer!

    This place has a great atmosphere. We were dressed very casual and fit in fine. They do takeout or dine in. Their portion sizes are VERY large. We had a group of four and could have easily split two entrees. The calamari is really good and they give you a lot! Their were four of us and we didn't finish it. My favorite dish was the chicken parmesan. Our waitress, Tracy, was very attentive and fast. We sat on the patio and it was lovely.

    I really wanted to love this place. It had such good reviews and local acclaim that it couldn't miss, but it missed! Atmosphere is great and lively. Crowded and engaging patrons make it an enjoyable environment. However, the food and drinks are mid. We tried many items on the menu and none of them impressed. If you're looking for high end Italian food then look elsewhere but this will deliver on mediocre expectations.

    Absolutely delicious, and there were many gluten-free options. Abrusci’s had a nice atmosphere and everything we ate tasted amazing.

    We arrived right at open and it sure does fill up quick- I know why! No need to look for other options, this is hands down the best place to eat in the area. I ordered chicken parm and my husband got the rigatoni sausage. Both were delicious!! Noodles tasted so fresh and cooked perfectly. Next time we’re in town we will be back! Staff was friendly and service was great as well!

    I don’t typically write reviews. We always have great experiences, both with the food & the service. We’ve come here 3 times now. I like to stay in my comfort zone (especially with food), everything we have tried has been outstanding! Coincidentally, Chase has been our server on two separate occasions. He’s attentive to questions/requests/needs. He is also chill and friendly for a fast-paced environment. Always leave with a full tummy and satisfied assistance. 😋🍺🥗🍕🫒

    We love this place so much we came back for seconds. 🤩 service fee is included on your bill and we like and appreciate the service (and food) so much that we gave extra on top of that. I didn’t even have enough time to take pics of the food before we dug in. The drinks are punchy and the food is delish. Happy hour is definitely worth checking out. Great for date night 💖 Aaron is a lovely bartender!

  • 4/5 Kristen A. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is really great! Good food and great atmosphere. We came here to celebrate a birthday! They take reservations of 6 or more in your party. The only downside is they sat us right next to the kitchen and you can hear the clanging of the plates and busyness of the kitchen.

  • 5/5 Martin L. 2 years ago on Google
    Had several amazing meals here. (All in one visit w/friends) It is definitely a five star Italian restaurant. Comments from guests on the spaghetti was that it was heavy oregano. The scallops were cooked perfect. The Brussel Sprouts are amazing. Best Damn bacon board was great. I'll be back. Note for gf peeps - amazing number of choices - like 20 or 25

  • 5/5 Kyndra G. 5 months ago on Google
    Excellent date night choice! The restaurant was cozy and romantic. The service was GREAT - props to the quick hostess and our server Mike, who treated us like VIPs. And, the food was fabulous. We started with the Italian Lettuce Wraps - not something my husband would ever choose but he LOVED it. Can’t wait to try and make them at home! We enjoyed the Sausage Rigatoni and Calabrian 🤌 chef’s kiss!! Mike topped the evening off for us with a brownie a La mode and we enjoyed a beer and the Lemon Drop Martini 🍸 Highly recommend this place and look forward to our next visit!

    Great service, food was good. Limoncello chicken was really nice. Chicken Parm was alright. The cannolis were not good :/ but the wine pours were VERY generous. I'd come back though it's not the best food, I was expecting better quality from the ratings! Also they include a 20% "hospitality" fee which I was confused about. There's a sign that it's not gratuity but that there's no expectation to tip on top of it. So I wasn't sure if that money actually goes to the servers or if the owners keep some of all of it.

    LOVED THIS PLACE. Needed to go somewhere that I was confident was gluten free and this was the place. They have a dedicated fryer and their food was delicious. Have never had gluten free calamari before and I loved it so much. Everything pictured was gluten free. Shrimp scampi, carne pizza, gluten free bread, and calamari.
