Drinks were good. Service was good. Ambience was good. Food was so-so. A little misleading with the menu - I’ve eaten at countless Italian restaurants and never had burrata or cacio e pepe prepared like this. Felt like a reach to differentiate themselves by altering classic Italian offerings that wound up being disappointing from a culinary experience.

Our server Hayes really made my birthday dinner special for us and went above and beyond to make sure we were always well taken care of. The Sommelier came over to talk to me about my wine pairings as well, really made dining here an incredible experience and the food was 10/10! Will definitely be back!

We ate at the bar and it was so worth it. Blonde tall bartender was super kind and fast. Got the vegan cashew Mac and loved it (gave me Loaded Bowl OKC cashew mac vibes) and my boyfriend had the steak and loved it! The drinks were great too. Perfect date night/slower softer evening spot!

We first went to Il Posto when it was a small restaurant on 17th Ave in Capitol Hill. This iteration is drastically different in ambience and in price - and not for the better. We were there for a 5:30 dinner, so very few diners and we were in a big booth which made it east to have a conversation -- a plus. Waiter was good but could have been a bit more attentive. Food was delicious, but it is so damn pricey! $37 for a 6 oz portion of salmon? Come on! And don't order wine by the glass because it's ridiculously expensive to do so. The food was great and the portions are more than adequate - we brought home some. Risotto, pappardelle, and Caesar salad are all standouts. I consider this a place for a splurge.

We found this incredible restaurant on Open Table just after landing in Denver after a long morning of travel. We were seated right away, and had a lovely meal. The owner came by the table to make sure we were happy. The service was excellent. Menu fantastic. If you are a foodie and love Italian, this is the place for you.

My date and I had a lovely evening. We went on a Wednesday and found out that they have half priced bottles of wine (for bottles under $100) every Wednesday. The whole meal was delicious but our absolute favorites were the gnocchi with bacon and butternut squash and the tiramisu panna cotta! Our server Mila was welcoming and friendly and she gave us excellent service. I didn’t catch the name of the woman who brought us wine, but she was very nice and conversational. We were very satisfied with our experience!
