    We ate here for our wedding anniversary while staying in Aspen; the wine selection was great, and we loved the tuna tartare and tiramisu. Our entrees were also pretty good. We were seated at a table incredibly close to another table (hitting our elbows a couple times), which is my only negative about our experience.

    This Italian is mezzo-mezzo. The staff were friendly and accommodating. There was nothing wrong with the food but nothing special about it either. The prices are would be considered outrageous anywhere but Aspen; there they merely aren't great value. If you are looking for ordinary, uneventful, but perfectly servicable Italian food then it's an unoffencive option.

    We have eaten at Acquolina three times in the last month. Each time, all meals have been excellent. It is expensive but the quality of food and service is excellent. It also has the largest selection of liquor I have ever seen. For example, for single malt scotch, they offered over 600 different choices.

    Had a somewhat disappointing dinner. Waiter was very in the weeds, so much so that the manager took our order. Never came to refill drinks or ask if we wanted another round from the bar. The $31 cacio pepi was comically overpriced and very bland. Absolutely something I could have easily made at home with very minimal effort. Butter lettuce salad was good. Linguine seafood dish lacking flavor, also bland, and lots of shells/grit still in the shellfish. Pizza was the star of the meal. Overall I do not think this place is worth the price or hype. It is a beautiful space and all the workers were very nice.

    The food was absolutely void of flavor. We had the ravioli, fettuccine, spinach and mushrooms. The meat inside the ravioli was hard and dry. The sauce on the fettuccini was sparse and lacked any sort of flavor. Honestly the only items worthy of the two stars were the garlic bread and wine. Please don’t bother, there has got to be better in aspen!!

    The service was good, but I did not find the food to be anything special especially in light of all the other wonderful restaurants in Aspen. There was nothing wrong but nothing that impressed me, I had the chicken parmesan and it was just chicken on a cutting board- nothing special and honestly the bone sticking out of it did nothing for me and was unexpected ( I have a thing about bones in meat and thus, it is usually very easy to avoid).

    This is one of our go-to restaurants in Aspen. Unfortunately, this past season they have amped up the music SO loud that it’s almost impossible to have a conversation. We asked that they torn it down but we couldn’t tell a difference. Despite how good everything else is, if we can’t talk, this will become less frequented. Food and service were excellent.

    Ivan provided great service. Our entrees were good except for the veal Milanese. Had to send it back as the sauce was way to salty and heavily for this dish. Pizza was also under fired.

    Our dinner was delicious. Gazpacho Verde very good & served chilled. Could have had a garnish. My angel hair with cherry tomatoes dish was done correctly (hard to find) & served piping hot. Other dish was pasta with meatballs & very good. If we wanted bread, which we did, it was a appetizer. Not including bread is unfortunately becoming more common. Very limited, & expensive wines by glass offered. One Pino, and priced over $30 for a small pour. Would have appreciated more variety in offerings for wines by glass at different price points. Cocktails very good. Will definitely go back. Enjoyed dinner.

    the salmon was maybe 3oz and a “decorative” salad!!!! for $55.00 seriously???? We live here and love supporting local businesses and eat out all the time . I suggest you look at your menu photos online and take off the old owners pics. Your salmon doesn’t come with quinoa ( like the old Aqualina did) and it’s definitely not that size anymore, actually it doesn’t come with ANYTHING! The hot bread that you charge $6 for was still cold in the inside. I suggest you rethink your prices /quality or it’s going to go under!!! So disappointed, we use to eat there at least twice a month!!!!

    So disappointed in what used to be a local staple that is now overpriced and catering to tourists. The portions are insultingly small and the prices are laughably high. The $21 Estiva salad is described as having cheese-my salad had no cheese. The Ceasar salad did not even pretend to have anchovy in it's mayonnaise dressing. $30 for an individual size pizza, and they failed to include our leftovers in the doggy bag. The "panne" is their garlic bread, which used to be four thick slices of crusty Italian bread; now they serve four small triangle slices. reverse were friendly, but not diligent.
