These Are Denver’s Best Italian Restaurants | Eater Denver

"Though it’s as warm as any classic mom-and-pop trattoria, dashing husband-and-wife duo Cindhura Reddy and Elliot Strathmann take a seriously idiosyncratic approach to Italian cuisine, weaving in both Colorado and Indian influences to striking effect: Take, for instance, the signature elk tartare with toasted masala aioli and ajwain seed crisps. Then take everything else, because it all shines, from the frutti di mare del giorno to seasonal pastas such as duck confit–stuffed agnolotti in chestnut cream with kale and cranberry relish, ideally paired with wines from one of Denver’s most thought-provoking cellars — and followed by homemade amaro." - Eater Staff
