Chef-driven, artisan Italian nestled in the heart of iconic Larimer Square. Osteria Marco is fine dining quality in a casual setting. We believe in craftsmanship and artistry—pizzas hand tossed to order, pasta hand rolled daily, cheese (like our famous burrata) and salumi crafted on site. Bartenders muddle and infuse; wines evolve to reflect the variety of the Italian countryside and climate. Descend the grand staircase, hunker down and, really... try the burrata. Don't forget to join us for Drag Bingo Brunch every Sunday alongside bottomless mimosas and a scratch Italian brunch!

A great restaurant meal can be an act of storytelling and transportation. Sliding onto a stool at a bar, being met with a classy and silky martini punctuated with a briny olive, is there to prepare you for a plate of finely-shucked oysters that were bobbing in the Atlantic 36 hours ago. In this moment the noise and cacophony can melt away, your phone finds its way back into your pocket, and we find communion with those of us on our left and right.We place a premium on doing the work to find producers, growers, and ranchers that have values that align with our own. It’s our desire to bring food to your table that speaks to its sense of place and time, and to be able to bring the connection to those producers to a higher level of consciousness.

    EL FIVE was a great place for my son's birthday. The ambiance and food were amazing. And staff were all so attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about the menu. The chef sent out some incredible dishes to our table. CATY was a fantastic server, knowledgeable and great personality to make our experience top notch.

    My 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!

    We’ve been looking for authentic Italian food in Denver that rivaled what we enjoyed in Italy. This is definitely it! The pasta and ricotta cheese are made on site, so fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back.

    We recently celebrated my wife’s birthday at Tavernetta and it was an unforgettable experience. The highlight of the evening was the pasta with lobster—perfectly cooked and brimming with flavor. It was a dish to savor with every bite. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a special occasion being my wife’s birthday. The staff were attentive and friendly. Great suggestion made for our first time here! If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine with a touch of elegance, Tavernetta is a fantastic choice. We’ll definitely be back!
