Upscale Northern Italian with legendary wine cellar & seasonal tasting menus
"Though an avatar of fine dining — white tablecloths, candlelight, prestigious wine cellar, and all — this Northern Italian destination in Cherry Creek is hardly old-school: Longtime chef Darrel Truett keeps the menu ever-fresh and engaging through seasonal creations like roast pheasant salad with walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes, toma cheese, and truffle aioli or gnocchi with braised lamb, rapini, and pickled cranberries. While most guests opt for the four-course degustazione complete with thoughtful pairings by Ryan Fletter’s crackerjack team, a la carte grazing at the bar on a weeknight is a lower-key treat." - Ruth Tobias
"There may be no better place to wine and dine someone special than at this white tablecloth stalwart of Northern Italian cuisine at the edge of Cherry Creek. Here, opportunities to splurge abound, whether on a four-course tasting menu, on a bottle of the eponymous wine, and/or on the addition of shaved truffles to any dish (perhaps lobster risotto or gnocchi with braised lamb and pickled cranberries). That said, it’s an open secret among locals that the cozy bar was made for more casual weeknight getaways." - Ruth Tobias
"This white-cloth Italian institution in Cherry Creek is offering reservations for a four-course prix fixe ($185 per person) that’s still in the works — but true to form, it’s guaranteeing guests a good time via such luxuries as caviar, truffles, and lobster as well as optional wine pairings worthy of its name." - Ruth Tobias
"To truly grasp the enduring reputation of this Northern Italian fixture in Country Club, a first-time guest needs to do three things: a) order a bottle of the eponymous wine; b) add shaved truffles to at least one dish; and c) get the torta di formaggio for dessert. A cheesecake featuring Piedmontese Castelmagno, rather than cream cheese, is drizzled with lavender honey and dusted with toasted hazelnuts and edible flowers — it’s the definitive finale to a night at one of Denver’s oldest special-occasion destinations." - Ruth Tobias
"Though an avatar of fine dining — white tablecloths, candlelight, 100-plus-page wine list, and all — this Northern Italian destination in Cherry Creek is hardly old school: Longtime chef Darrel Truett keeps the menu fresh and engaging through seasonal creations like chilled foie gras terrine with puff pastry, apricot mostarda, and Marsala gélee or lobster risotto with saffron crema and gold leaf. While most guests opt for the four-course degustazione, a la carte grazing at the bar on a lower-key weeknight is a treat." - Eater Staff
