   The gluten free pizza option was excellent! Service was warm, friendly, and the perfect amount of attentiveness. Will definitely be back.

   We had wonderful and carefully prepared food. One of us tried a new pizza with Colorado ham and the other person had a new gnocchi dish. It was a different and creative take on gnocchi. Service was great and atmosphere was relaxed and upbeat.

   Another fabulous dinner at Benzina! We were with friends from Houston who also loved every aspect of our evening. Our server (Mary) was very helpful with recommendations and advice and did a terrific job staging our drinks and dinner. The owner (Brad) stopped by and was very attentive and welcoming.

   Nice night out with girl friends. Food and drinks all very tasty. We had arincini for apps, then shared a salad, pizza and half chicken plus amazing chocolate tart. I’d order it all again. Same for the spritzes - we tried them all! And the service was friendly, informative, and timely. Looking forward to being on the patio this spring!

   Great service and ambience. The food was a great balance of flavor and uniqueness. I love that they coursed out the order without us asking and each course was better then the last. The smoked trout salad, gnocchi and pizza were excellent. We want to know how to make your crust! Do you sell the dough? So yummy! Thank you for the excellent service and food, kudos to you and your team! We can’t wait to see you again soon.

    First time eating at Benzina and we were not disappointed. We started off with the arancini which were very delicious, followed by the gnocchi with squash and rabbit ragu and the mushroom pizza. Both mains were fantastic and we had the added bonus of being able to use the pizza crusts to wipe up the delicious sauce leftover from the gnocchi. For a drink we had prosecco and Benzina old Fashoined, both of which were very delicious! This was an outstanding place to eat and I highly recommend it. The only caution I would have is that, due to it being in an old gas station, the acoustics are not great so it can get a bit on the louder side, but the atmosphere is very cool with how they managed to use the space.

    We enjoyed Benzina twice during the holidays. At this point we might like a bit of a menu change up; maybe a monthly special? Music was loud, could be turned down a fraction. Young crowd with a few sprinkles of older. Good addition to the Park Hill neighborhood and a bright spot on sketchy Colfax. Maybe a parking deal could be made with Dollar Tree?

    From the first greeting to the first bite…. They never disappoint. You can tell how just careful and proud they are with every cocktail and dish that is prepared for you. Benzina is my go to place for not only special occasions and business meetings… but I also love drop in for a tasty every day meal. In fact I’m headed there in 2 days again to celebrate the new year…. If you haven’t been there yet, nothing like a new year to try a new place.

    I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while and sadly I was very disappointed. The food itself wasn’t too bad, but it was so expensive and I had hardly any pasta for $30! I was expecting leftovers, when instead I had some my friend’s pizza (which wasn’t too bad). We ordered the Arancini for appetizers and they had a background taste of plastic, which was a bummer because they sounded really good. The biggest issue was our check. Be aware they cannot split separate checks, so if you have a big party you will have to go through all your orders and do the math on the back of the check, which could take a while if you’re with a bigger group like us (old school style). Our servers were nice, but busy. They tried to accommodate us, but their system seems outdated. Seems like a cool spot, but I wouldn’t come back unfortunately.

    The food was excellent, and the restaurant itself is very funky and fun. I highly recommend their creative food and inventive cocktails as everything we had was delicious, but I do feel inclined to share that we felt uncomfortably rushed our entire meal. We had a 7:45 dinner reservation and by 8:15, a few minutes after receiving our entrees, our server was asking if we would like a box to wrap up our meal. We weren’t even there a full hour before the check was dropped off at our table and we were witnessing them clean and mop and wipe down the entire restaurant around us. I’ve worked in the service industry for many years and am very familiar with the desire to get home at the end of a long day/shift, but we felt uncomfortably rushed and watched our entire meal, despite not being there more than an hour start to finish. If you’re looking to enjoy a longer meal without pressure, I unfortunately wouldn’t recommend benzina.

    We celebrated our 33rd wedding anniversary on a Saturday night. I had the tagliatelle with octopus and my husband had the gnocchi with rabbit. Both were delicious. Hats off to the chef and owners. They comped us a dessert for the occasion. Also. The margarita was delicious. Very unique setting.

    Some of the best food we've had in Denver. Small menu so with three of us we were able to try almost everything - and everything was excellent. Wonderful service. Music was a little loud for us (in our 70's) but they were happy to turn it down. Out 17-yr-old grandson loved it too.
