Best Italian Restaurants in Denver

Wonderful dining experience. Everyone was super nice and helpful. The menu was slightly different for Valentine’s Day, but it was a nice change for the holiday

We went to Osteria for their Valentine's Day menu and the chef showcased a lot of new dishes, such as the oysters, risotto, bucatini plus a new pork cheek protein. Every dish was amazing but the standout was definitely the oysters. These were West Coast oysters from a company run by two brothers in Washington and they were served topped with caviar. My wife and I both said they were the best oysters we've ever had. I hope these are brought back again at some point. Overall, dining at Osteria is top notch and we've never had a bad meal nor experience here and can't recommend the restaurant enough.

Everything from the staff that greeted us to the server & all involved were great and the food was amazing. My wife usually cooks something special for is on Valentines Day but we were traveling to Denver & so I made this reservation. Food was outstanding & a treat for my wife to not have to cook. Thanks for a wonderful evening!

We had multiple moments where the food was so incredible, we couldn’t help but close our eyes to fully experience the flavor! Every dish was perfect. Don’t miss the tagliatelle.

We love QI. The owner clearly carefully crafted the menu, and the cuisine is unrivaled in Denver. We started with the honey-ricotta, little gem Caesar, and friend calamari - all excellent. The pesto, lemon charred chicken, and spicy lobster rigatoni alla vodka are among the best dishes I have ever tasted, including in Italy. They also have an excellent wine list with a broad range of fine options from Italy, France, and the US. Service has always been terrific each time we go. A great restaurant, full of ambiance, and character, Quality Italian remains one of our favorites.
