These Are Denver’s Best Italian Restaurants | Eater Denver

"Coperta has the quaint, lived-in vibe of a trattoria on the piazza of some Italian hill town, and the food lives up to the feel. Start with the spuzzulia, essentially an ever-changing antipasto platter, before digging into seasonal pastas like mushroom-leek ravioli with rabbit conserva. Most are helpfully offered by the half-portion to allow room for entrees such as rosemary sausage–stuffed quail over polenta or the fish stew called acqua pazza, not to mention cannoli. And be sure to ask for recommendations from the wine list, a trove of treasures from Campania, Calabria, Puglia, and other southern regions." - Eater Staff
