- TTjNew York City •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWhat a lovely trattoria. Great service from maitre’ d Seth, my server Alane and her support team. The food was excellent, gnocchi and polenta stole my heart as well as the authentic and mouthwatering puntarelle insalata. Approachable in all areas for the casual diner to the elegant wine savant. 10/10.More infoTavernettaPrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Downtown / LoDo•4.7

- BBentonvipDenver / Colorado •14 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThis place is outstanding. Crowded but not overwhelming. Menu is limited, in a good way. The restaurant presents a number of simple and complex options, and everything tastes as fresh as can possibly be. We started with dressed oysters, then a kale salad - both dishes perfectly prepared. Then lobster pasta, and salmon, again extremely fresh. The complimentary table rolls are also nostalgically warm, buttery and seasoned with salt and garlic. I'd only been here for lunch, but definitely coming back for dinner soon!More infoQuality Italian- DenverPrice: Expensive• Italian• Cherry Creek•4.7
- LLaurenvipDenver / Colorado •2 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 22, 2024My friend and K really enjoyed Linger! We ordered the pork belly bao, sweet fries, and charred edamame for a shared dinner. All of the food was packed with flavor and delicious. She ordered an old fashioned and I ordered the Thai tea cocktail. She enjoyed her old fashioned and said it was very orange forward, I was unfortunately not a fan of my cocktail but I think only because of personal preference. Overall I still would give it a 5/5. Ambiance was great but it was a tad loud. Looking forward to going back and trying more things!More infoLingerPrice: Expensive• Global, International• Highlands•4.6
- DDerekAustin •1 review5.0Dined on Nov 20, 2024We were the last table on a Tuesday night and you would have thought we were the first table on a Saturday night. From the complementary Prosecco to the fantastic Charcuterie board to the even better pasta(I’m from the east coast and it’s great pasta) Cat our server was the best.More infoLucaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Central•4.9
