    This was the best Italian food I've ever had in Colorado. We went there for my birthday and it couldn't of been better. Our server was awesome and the food was great. I highly recommend it. I definitely will be dining there again.

    Very mediocre. Was disappointed. The place looked so cute and that's why we picked it ... But we were sat back in the corner and did not get to enjoy the Victorian vibes at all.

    Wow! Try to love this place and what they do… but damn the food is so hit or miss… Had the chicken parm…. Yuck the chicken is deep fried rather then pan fried which makes a huge difference! The pasta was Olive Garden quality so Over cooked wasn’t even edible, sauce had so Much water it wasn’t even sauce! If this was east coast it would have given somebody a heart attack at how bad it was cooked prepared. Angelos is so Much better I wish i would have waited on their wait list. Would have saved me so much disappointment!

    Food was not good. Lobster Fra Diavlo was aweful. Pesto Gnocci awful, not clams for the linguine with clam sauce. No Grey Goose vodka. Not prepared for a weekend of customers. Won't go back. So disapointing.

    The night started out a little rough when the server, waiting on another table adjacent to our table accidentally spilled a glass of wine all over the other guests table and onto my white sweater. That already had me "up in arms" though I continued on throughout the evening as though it was no thing. Then, as we had ordered two hot cups of the delectable French onion soup the male server brought them without any soup spoons. After waiting 10 minutes for him to return with the spoons - I had to get up to try and find a server that could bring them and put them directly into my hands. Luckily, the soup was still warm, though not piping hot. The Host/Manager came over to our table to let us know that he had heard of our experience and made it right by comping our whole night. Me personally. I was not looking for them to do that, though the fact that they did and acknowledged the experience really turned around the "less than ideal" time and spoke volumes about the new management / owners. They care about their reputation and they want to continue an admirable streak in fine dining experiences. The food, while never an issue the few times I have visited the Odyssey, seemed more superb in this evening. With just a new change of hands it seams it is still being learned that dining experiences in Colorado differ from those in Florida and as much as Coloradans appreciate exceptional food - the service should certainly compliment that. Thank you Odyssey for turning around a rough start to the night. It meant much.

    Loved the food and wine. The only drawback of sitting outside in the cold was being next to the door to the covering. As the staff kept coming in and out, the door was left open and I had to close it frequently so as not to freeze during my meal.

    Cozy atmosphere however that’s where the experience ends. Food was possibly some of the worst Italian food I’ve ever eaten. Food lacked flavor and was both riddled with oil , dry as sand and Luke warm not hot. The server while nice was in the weeds all evening and he only had 6 tables. Will definitely be our first and last experience.

    This is our favorite Italian restaurant in Denver. The food is always exceptional (we had the Saffron Shrimp and Lobster Ravioli with shrimp and mussels as an appetizer.) The only issue we had was they were absolutely slammed which makes it noisy and the wait staff was running behind because of the number of people there; not a slam on our waitress, she was working hard to keep up with several large tables. This hasn't been the case in the past and it may be a reflection of them opening up outside dining areas.

    The food was amazing! We had bread, calamari, muscles, pesto gnocchi, lobster & shrimp ravioli, spicy spaghetti and a cannoli. The service was spot on and the place was hoping. I want to go back and sit upstairs, we were down stairs near the entrance which was cool but very very busy.

    We've come here a few times for special occasions. I want to say... the calamari this time was different and honestly a million times better. So good. We both ordered lobster ravioli which has always been divine. My partner ordered and old fashioned and I had a cosmopolitan and both drinks were made phenomenally. The waiters were speaking Italian and I felt like I was back in Italy. It was a good experience.

    I made a reservation online, plenty of time in advance (at least a month). On that reservation, I kindly requested the 2nd level, by or near the fireplace, since it was to be an intimate dinner for a birthday, BUT they didn’t even slightly try to meet that request. Usually when I make a very reasonable request on Open Door, the establishments make it happen no problem. Instead, we were seated in the drafty, cold, dining area on the first floor, in a cramped middle table in the highest trafficked area. The food also took an hour to receive. We sat at 7:30pm and got our entrees at about 8:30 pm, and they were not overly busy for a Thurs night. We also ordered a bottle of wine from their wine menu, but they did not have it, so we ordered a different bottle of wine from their wine menu, and yet again, they did NOT have it! We finally just kindly asked them “WHAT” they did have. We have eaten at this establishment numerous times in past years, and it was always so pleasant under the previous management, but new management recently took over, and is just not as good. They do not exceed expectations. However, the menu items remain the same under the new management, and they always did, and still do, have tasty Italian dishes.
