    My son and his girlfriend treated me for My birthday. He wanted to try just about everything. We ordered a Rioja salad which I loved and we ordered 1/2 orders of the pastas just to try them all. The 2 favorites were the pappardelle with pork and the artichoke tortelloni. We ordered the bacon wrapped cod, the braised short rib (my favorite) and the octopus which was soft and cooked to perfection as entrees. Dessert was a butterscotch buddino and the chocolate citrus mousse. All was delicious and the atmosphere was perfect. Super friendly staff as well and very attentive. Would highly recommend giving Rioja a try.

    I’ve eaten here twice and think the food is excellent and the staff is great but can we stop being okay with restaurants doing ridiculously inflated extra charges for “Denver Fair Wages”? Im sorry Gusto owners but 6% additional, you should be ashamed you lack the respect to pay your employees better over the greed of filling your pockets. And while I’m sure you’ll make a response saying why you have to do this we can all agree the markup on pizza and pasta is pretty good. Hope you come to your senses, reduce this charge, pay your employees a fairer wage, and stop putting it on your customers before you lose them all.
