Everything was great, it is so refreshing to be greeted by a professional, someone who appears to enjoy the position. Most had the pizza's which were very good. I had joined for dinner prior which was exceptional, my only suggestion would be to add a few more selections to the lunch menu.

Great Thanksgiving Day menu! Would definitely do again! The best part was the take home 'leftover' bags to make turkey and trimming sandwiches with how-to instructions from the chef! Nice touch!

My friend and I celebrated Thanksgiving at Panzano, and the staff acted genuinely delighted to welcome us. From seating us early, to their warm smiles all around, it was a great experience. Apropos the meal itself, I chose the pre fixe Thanksgiving feast - the squash bisque and pumpkin pie were both excellent; I'm no great fan of turkey. I wish I had skipped the Thanksgiving feast in favor of gone with some of the other far more interesting dishes on the limited menu of the day. I'm certainly going to return to try their food in future. I had thought of the food as somewhat pricey at $65 per head, but it included packaged "leftovers" with sandwich fixings - a very fun touch that was the icing on a great experience.

I think everything was good but dealing with our reservation. We tried to add additional seat, and I understand if it’s not able to be accommodated, but it was the tone and conversation with the woman who answered the phone when I called to do so I was completely rude. So much attitude.

The insalata Di barata was one of the best salads I’ve ever eaten. The chicken was good but a bit salty and the gnocchi were quite different from when I expect when I think “gnocchi”. The server was friendly and attentive but not overly so.

The service is top notch and most of the food is outstandingly prepared and served. The less than perfect review is because one dish (the veal saltimbocca) was too salty and I couldn't eat it. They are also very accommodaing with half portions.

What an outstanding dining experience! I reserved a table for 3 for my beautiful girlfriend's 50th birthday celebration. We asked the server, Abby, to take control of the ordering. She stepped up without hesitation. We began with the brussel sprouts salad and the calamari then she brought a pasta dish, a fish dish and a steak dish. We were grateful for her choices and intend to return. Thank you!

Panzano was absolutely delicious!! We were a group of 9 people. The staff was so nice and uplifting, making the experience really fun. We had some of the best brussel sprouts I've ever tasted, and their Gold Spice Mocktails were delicious. Literally all the food we tried was so good. They also had a gluten-free menu, which was very helpful for one of my friends.

The food is excellent. Our appetizers and salad came out in a timely manner, but entries took over an hour. We had to box the entries as the lateness caused us to scramble to make it to the DCPA in time for the Symphony performance at 7:30. The food sat in the car until after the show when we could finally get home and reheat.

WOW! Just wow! Absolutely spectacular experience at Panzano. My husband and I decided to try this for a date night in downtown and since we had a Denver Passbook for bogo drinks we thought we would give it a try. Our waitress Abby was so thoughtful and extremely helpful in navigating the menu, I have a dairy allergy, she checked everything with the chef and gave great guidance. She also brought over complimentary champagne at the start of the meal since I had noted it was a date night. We had two of their custom cocktails and both were top notch. We ordered the octopus to start and it is a must try. We also had their focaccia, I ordered the fish of the day - Sole which was exceptional and my husband had the Buccatini which he loved. We absolutely will come back to try the desserts as they looked fabulous. TLDR: come for the food, stay for the exceptional service, and for goodness sake order the octopus!
