Ristorante Di Sopra

This place rocks located right on the Colorado Springs downtown super convenient to everything happening in the downtown area. The place is somewhat small but packs a flavorful and enjoyable punch. The server were very helpful in the selection of wines, entrees, desserts and they know the menu upside down. Great selection of food, wines and desserts. Nice, quaint, and inviting you feel like someone's home the service, the atmosphere there, the conversations the laughter such a great time. We had a group of for and reservations are highly recommend this place is popular because they are extremely good at what they do and the dishes they offer are phenomenal so make your reservations or do the waiting thing. I promise you will have a great time and leave with a smile. Overall a great experience and will be back when in town.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience here. We had always eaten downstairs and finally decided to make some reservations to try this part of the restaurant, and we were not disappointed! We had the halibut and salmon, which were delicious! We highly recommend the Baked Alaskan to finish off the meal!

I was plenty surprised to see the difference in quality and service in Sopra vs their downstairs counterpart Paravicinis. Food and service were phenomenally better as I would expect out of a fine dining establishment. The place is a little cramped at the bar, but the staff navigated just fine. I had the bartender make me a couple of classic cocktails; A Vieux Carre and a Corpse Reviver No.2, which were done very well. The bartender was also happy to make something new. The food looked and tasted great and it was coursed in a very respectable manner. I personally spent near the same dollar amount as downstairs, so I definitely hold better value in it. This is definitely a great date night spot for couples!

On reccommendation from a friend, I decided to take my wife to Sopra’s for her birthday. From the moment we stepped onto the wooden staircase leading up the dark hallway I knew, at that moment, that this place was going to more than just a place to eat, but an experience. We were treated like we were the two that mattered. Our server, Chris is a natural and a very accomplished server and a proffesionally trained chef in his own rite. Informed us, in detail, on each dish he would be serving us. The food, the textures of the food and seasoned to perfection. Highly reccommend and will be back soon. Thank you again Sopra for an enjoyable and rememberable evening. Dan B.

Went up here while waiting for a table downstairs. Had bartender Chris who was incredible and helpful! Knew his drinks and his food. The food was really good quality . Real Italian. Delightful freak show wine and Lodi red . Get the risotto balls! (Wish they had a happy hour) We will be back!

I went there with a group of my mother’s friends it was so much fun! We were there this past Monday and it was a calm night, as calm as can be when you bring all of us into equation. We were a group of about 30 people and we made reservations ahead of time which is highly highly recommended given the small size of the place. The environment was so nice and cozy, I told my mother it felt like those loft style restaurants or rooftop restaurants that they have in NYC and San Francisco. Lots of warm lighting and of different style fixtures so it did not feel bland to look at. All the servers were well dressed and hair brushed back with friendly faces and willing to help with whatever was needed, and were so so kind and patient about it all; given how many of us there were and how loud and chaotic we were it was so nice to see how kind they were with us. I know how stressful it can be dealing with big groups so I am so thankful that they were very courteous towards us. The food was so delicious as well! I will say presentation was okay at some points it could have been better, but knowing how many of us there were they did a fantastic job, also each dish was very beautiful and colourful still even if not fully arranged all the vegetables and garnishes really completed the dish and was so nice to be able to wipe each plate clean. The food was flavourful: good taste, good textures and mouthfeel, it was not overly heavy, each dish was aromatic to the nose and appealing for the eyes. I absolutely would eat here again if there were a special occasion around there corner.

First time here, definitely go and enjoy a fine dining experience here. We had for lunch sausage cannelloni, wife had chicken parmigianni. Both were excellent 👌 server Amy( I'd request her again very sincerely wanted to do good service) made good recommendations and was excellent. From the background music to the old pictures, this place is real Italian.

Absolutely loved this gem. Not only was the food outstanding but Sarah (manager, bartender, server - she does it all) drove us with love and care through a unforgettable wine and food experience. Sarah puts the “S” in service and if you eat there be sure to request that Sarah takes care of you. We were lucky enough to have her full attention at the bar.

Well, every first date I've been on thus far in Colorado has taken me here, so I think that says something about their reputation. I've had the same pasta each time, their vegetarian selection isn't exactly something to call home about but I've been very satisfied by the pasta I've ordered. They do serve wonderful bread with tampanad and an oil before the meal that is absolutely divine. The service has never been less than exceptional, extremely friendly and attentive. The ambiance is nice and I enjoy their transformed outdoor area as well! I got lost the first time, I was confused by the entrance which goes upstairs. They're quite serious stairs, be careful especially if you're wearing heels! Totally a heel worthy restaurant though. Not sure about the prices, I've not paid close attention having been on dates. It seems like you're getting what you pay for, though! It's a very beautiful and kind of... peaceful? It's quaint, upscale. Not packed in like sardines. Best Italian in the springs, in my opinion!

Visited with friend. Nice quiet inside table. Ordered bottle of Chianti Classaco Reserva which is always a good choice. Had veal chop both Marsala and Parmagana. Both cooked perfectly. Service was friendly and attentive.

There were two of us dining, and we ordered the Burrata and Pancetta, Octopus, Pappardelle with Duck Ragu, and the Seafood Risotto. The portion sizes here are very generous--we definitely ordered twice as much food as we needed. The Burrata and Pancetta had good flavor overall, but it was overly salty for my taste. The octopus itself was well-cooked and tasty, though I wasn't a fan of the other components in the dish. The Pappardelle with Duck Ragu was rich and satisfying, but there was a hint of cinnamon in the sauce that threw me off a bit. As for the Seafood Risotto, the flavors were enjoyable, but the consistency was a little too soupy for my preference. What really stood out was the service. The staff were lively, friendly, and very attentive throughout our meal, which made the experience much more enjoyable.

Very quaint, second floor restaurant with outstanding food, great service, and delicious desserts. Waitstaff were super attentive. Of all the Italian spots in OCC, this will be our go-to.

Was in Colorado Springs for a conference at the Broadmoor and decided to try a restaurant out on the town. I randomly came across this place, and let me tell you, it did not miss on a single dish. Everything was phenomenal, the wait staff was very attentive, and noise level wasn't bad at all. Don't judge this place on the outside. We ended up having homemade fresh mozzarella and prosciutto and the Sopra salad to start our meal - both were very tasty. For entrees, I had the lobster pappardelle, and my coworkers had the seafood risotto and scallop plate. We all loved what we had, but we agreed mine was the best! For dessert we had the limoncello cheesecake, which was decadent. Highly recommend!

If we could give .5 points, we would have rated this 4.5 stars but since we can't we rounded up. The ambience is super cute and their covered patio was plenty warm. Our server, Allie was awesome. She really helped to guide us through the menu on the best dishes which didn't disappoint. From the appetizer to our dessert, it was well coursed and well presented. Entrees were good not great but appetizer and dessert was excellent. We crushed the limoncello cheesecake even on a full stomach. Would recommend!

Fantastic menu and service! I'm not sure why it is so much better than the downstairs restaurant, which is under the same chef, but it is. Service is strong and prompt and even helped us get reseated away from an obnoxiously loud group of women USAFA athletes who were totally killing the patio vibe. Really sad representation by a feckless coach, but I digress... We LOVED that they offer a complementary Italian style "salsa" starter - one with pesto and ricotta, and the other a tomato basil combination with crusty breads. Delightful! I ordered the chicken Napolitano and husband ordered the Chilean Seabass - - both were incredible! We saw other appetizers coming from the kitchen that we want to try next time. Seriously spectacular flavor profiles on everything we tried, and we are picky because we cook A LOT. Withholding one star because the space is kind of a bummer. It is a cramped interior dining room, where everyone is on top of one another with zero sound remediation. At one point, the kitchen got over-smoked big time with billows of smoke spilling into the tiny dining area. Just strange and not the best layout. The outdoor patio is the best option, but as mentioned earlier, we were done with the cackling, screeching, and falling on the floor over laughing scene. Overall, the best Italian we have found so far in the Springs with just a few more to go.

Had a lovely dinner outside in the patio. It was enjoyable to watch the sunset while having dinner. We had the octopus panzanella, funghi casserole, and pappardelle with duck ragù. Everything was delicious. The duck ragù was a little sweet and I think had cinnamon which I didn't care for. The server was funny and timely with our service. We had a great time.

On a trip to Colorado Springs, we found this yummy eatery on Yelp. The restaurant is on the back corner of a several story building, so there are stairs to climb. The place is pretty small, and it was packed. The ambiance was not amazing, but they have very little real estate. We sat on the outside patio where the mountains can be seen. It got really hot out there though, so just be aware. They had nice wine, and waitstaff was friendly and attentive. I wish they would have brought olive oil/seasoning dip for the bread they brought. Instead, you get a small both of Mediterranean olives, etc. The food menu was fairly small. I would love a few more chicken options to choose from. The food was really good, and dessert was delicious! I would definitely go back! :)

Phoenix is the host and Melanies our waitress. The best part of our experience was our host Phoenix. He is lively invigorating, and makes you feel excited to be at the restaurant. Are we trust? Melanie was also very attentive. The peso sauce that comes with the bread is very bland and has no flavor. The other option is better. The Caesar salad does not have enough dressing. We had to ask for extra. I don't recommend anchovies, the flavor lasted the entire meal. Pappardelle all Argosta- The main dish was lacking flavor and richness. I don't eat salt but I added salt to this dish. That speaks for itself. The dessert we had was the pistachio cheesecake, which was out of this world, so good I highly recommend it. We also had the s'mores type thing, and I can't remember the name of it, but that was good as well. They need a restaurant crumb cleaner as the table cloths are black and everything shows. Overall experience was okay. The best parts of the experience was the hostess and the desserts. The ambience is really cool and laid back but yet classy. I just wish their food was as good the desserts. I may give the place a second chance but it won't be my 1st pick to go to.

Carly is my server. She recommended a couple of different wines. I taste tested a couple of the red wines. I do not like dry wines. I prefer sweet red wines. I think I finally found the Sweet Red Wine I've been looking for! Where have you been all my life?! Lol ;-) Love the music in the background! I had Beef Tenderloin with Palenta and glazed mushrooms. Wow! Grilled perfect to my liking!

The food and service were wonderful. They made celebrating a birthday there an absolute treat. I sometimes get nervous ordering seafood (grew up on the coast) but the scallops were very good. Looking forward to returning very soon!

Beyond good service, they take amazing care of you. The food is spectacular and the wines and drinks are perfection. This is a no brainer, one of the best restaurants in the whole Springs area.

Our server really made our dinner nice. Thank you, Reagan! Attentive and honest, and We eat small portions and always split meals. Last night we tried the wedge salad, absolutely fabulous. Lots of toppings really set this wedge apart from most restaurants. We tried the Carbonara "Franco's way" with all the different pork, so good. The fresh noodles and the richness of this dish really hit home with us. Ended up Taking some limoncello cheesecake home and enjoying it over coffee this morning(desert for breakfast is totally a thing in this house) splitting the salad and pasta was perfect for us, and I fully intend to try the veal on my next visit.

We enjoyed our dining experience at Sopra! The food, ambience, service, and value for food were all excellent. The best part of our meal was the chocolate ravioli! We will definitely be back!

I recently visited Colorado Springs and dined at a local restaurant, Ristorante de Sopra. When the check came I saw that there was an "IF (3%)" item added to the bill. I asked about this and was told that it was an inflation fee. "I see," I said. "So the prices on the menu are not the actual prices that you charge?" "Yes, that's right." "So it's just sort of a surprise at the end?" "Well, the owner didn't want to go through the expense of printing up new menus, so we do this instead." I do understand that there is inflation, and I do understand that restaurants run on thin margins, but this practice seems a bit odd to me. I can see doing this ahead of time, perhaps as a small leaflet added to the menu with an explanation of sorts. But afterwards, tucked in at the bottom of the check, without explanation? A number of terms come to mind for this practice: bait and switch, false advertising...how about just plain old dishonesty? I wrote to the establishment, but I have not yet received a reply.

We've eaten here before and the pasta was done right. This time, however, the pasta was not "al dente" at all but total mush. Freshly made pasta, which this supposedly is, only needs 2-3 minutes cooking time. I'm sure the head chef is not involved in such a simple task but delegates this duty. However, the head chef needs to ensure quality is maintained. The pasta was literally mush. Such a shame.

Everything about our Anniversary celebration at Di Sopra was amazing!! We sat in their "outdoor" space, which thankfully wasn't too hot because of a nice breeze and cloud cover...the views are beautiful! Very nice ambiance! Our server, Ozzy, was so attentive & great in every way! The food is very traditional Italian & was exceptional, as was the Chianti wine to go with it!! My husband had a wedge salad & a scallop over saffron rice dish, which he loved & I had the Sopra salad & a delicious risotto, creamy mushroom/ Gorgonzola dish with Salmon....both entrees were amazing!! We can't wait to go back and try some of their appetizers, which looked soooo yummy!!

We were very excited to try this place for the first time since we had heard such great things but unfortunately, we were left pretty disappointed. The service from our waitress was not great. The caesar salad had very little dressing and it took 10-15 minutes to get more from our waitress. We ordered the Tagliatelle Duck Ragu and the Matalda con Manzo Brasato and were disappointed by both. Not much flavor and just felt like a waste of a night out honestly. The Matalda con Manzo Brasato was the better of the two but we won't return.

Went with a group of 4 with a reservation on a Saturday night. The area is small but cozy and there is plenty of free parking in the back. The service was quick and the waitress was very attentive our entire time there. Ordered the Artichoke and Pancetta & Buratta for appetizer and we got the salmon, Lobster Paperdelle, and Chicken Pasta ( can't remember the exact name) for our meals. I would rate the food a 4/5 but the ambiance and service definitely brought the experience to a 5/5.

Five stars across the board; Food, Service and Ambiance. Outstanding! IMHO, this is the best Italian restaurant that I've been to in Colorado.

This place is AMAZING! All around amazing! First when we arrived, the Hostess was so friendly. After she sat us and we mentioned it was our first time there, she went through the whole menu and explained the homemade pasta. Our server was so attentive and polite! The food... the food was delicious. We started off with the Lobster Casserole and the complimentary bread and pesto. Chunks of lobster in cream sauce for the casserole. Perfect size to share. My husband ordered Cacio e Pepe with the Guanciale for Pasts Carbonara add on. It was so delicious. I ordered the Pappardelle all' Aragosta. Fat chunks or lobster claw meat and fat cut mushrooms! The handmade noodles were so long! It was so good! Cappuccino Cream Cake for dessert. As you can see we ate it too fast and forgot to take a pic I highly recommend this place! All around greatness!

We had a delicious and delightful dinner here after not getting into the restaurant below. The service was really great. The restaurant is relaxing. The staff is attentive and nice. Filling ourselves on pasta and stumbling out we knew we had found a gem!

Outstanding! Great food, great service! Definitely our "go to" Italian restaurant! The homemade pasta can't be missed!

We had dinner for 4, celebrating my son in laws birthday. Unfortunately his dinner was sent back to the kitchen. His lobster papardelle was inedible. The noodles were mush. Pretty back when a supposed 5 star Italian restaurant can't get the pasta right. The other dinners were fine, but still a disappointing experience.

This is going to be a long one. Forgive me, but I have to be liberal in my praise tonight. The food here is classic Italian with plenty of choices. These are dishes you would expect to find on a menu back East in New York or Chicago, and everything is prepared and presented with care and a true passion for the cuisine. Certainly the best Italian food we've had in the West, and we've been out here for decades! Everything was flavourful and authentic. Back to the food in a minute. Here's what truly made our night: We had not planned on dining out, as we were down from Denver to see our family members who live in the Springs. It was Saturday night, the night before Mother's Day. This is a big weekend, perhaps the biggest in the hospitality industry. We have plans in Denver tomorrow, so we were not planning on celebrating tonight; we weren't dressed-up, and were just out for something simple and quick, as the kids wanted to get to the music festival. We had gone to several restaurants, including Paravincini's downstairs, and were not having any luck getting a table without an hour's wait. Our bad, we just had not planned. Phoenix, the Host, greeted us warmly and professionally, and as kindly as he could, let us know that there were no tables available. We were disappointed but knew a table for five without a reservation on a busy night was a long shot. As a consolation, Phoenix gave us a coupon for a future visit, which was very kind. We checked our phones for other options as we headed back downstairs to our car. Just as we were about to pull away, Phoenix came to tell us that a table was opening up, if we were willing to wait a few minutes. Of course we were! So. That was the start of our experience: A host who could have easily let us go and seated another party, ran after us to invite us back inside. "Above and beyond" almost seems inadequate. The staff is remarkably attentive: As we walked in, we were either verbally greeted or acknowledged with a smile or nod by each staff member we passed -- bartenders, bussers, waitstaff. Our servers, Natalia and Ryan greeted us once we were seated, and introduced themselves. It was clear from the outset that Natalia was experienced, knowledgeable, and on top of her game, and I knew we were in good hands. I will stop here for a moment to mention the atmosphere -- lively but not overwhelmingly loud. The restaurant was at capacity but you could hear your own table's conversation. The music was appropriate for an Italian restaurant -- Pavoratti and Bocelli but played at a mild volume. We were seated on the patio and the view was stunning! We had already decided what we were having, and Natalia praised our choices. However, she quickly let us know about the octopus special, and we added that to our antipasti order. It turned out to be the table's favourite. Everything was on point, from the fresh-baked rustic bread and focaccia with pesto and tapenade, to the three antipasti (the artichoke was also delicious!), the mains, and desserts. Everything was fresh, and full of exciting flavours. We were driving back on a rainy night so decided not to have wine, but one of our party had a cocktail and loved it. The support staff were on top of water refills, silverware, etc. Perfectly seamless service. For an unplanned, last-minute dinner, it turned out to be a treat, and one of the best dining experiences we've ever had, which is saying something. Now, a word to the wise, make reservations. ALWAYS. Don't be like us. But these things happen, and this staff accommodated us with warmth and a professional attitude that is all too rare these days. The food was exquisite, and the overall experience a delight. The high level of management and staff's pride in their work was apparent in every aspect of service. We will certainly be back (with reservations, and dressed more appropriately), and highly recommend this gem of a restaurant. Thank you, again, for making our visit to Sopra a truly memorable experience!

Recently I celebrated a friends birthday and we wanted to try a new to us place. Ristorante di Sopra was on the list for awhile, so it was time! The experience did not start off great. Upon entering, we were greeted by the hostess and seated. We were sat in a small half booth for two and I would not recommend sitting there. More about that later. After sitting, a young man filled our water and told us that our server would be with us soon. For 20 minutes we sat there with zero service or acknowledgment. We had what we assumed was a server stare at a us a few times from the kitchen. Finally I had to go to the hostess station and ask if we had a server that was going to come by. Now she seemed genuinely apologetic and horrified that no one had taken care of us. Finally our server showed up. The one staring from the kitchen. Great. She apologized and got through the specials. The rest of the service was fine. She apologized again at the end for being a couple minutes late to welcoming us. Reminder, it was 20 minutes, not a couple. 20. Sad. Best to just apologize and not mention how late you were. Still I just smiled and didn't say anything. We still tipped 25% percent because I also understand people are just trying to make it. Now for the food. We started with the burrata and pancetta app. I highly recommend this! It was delicious. The pancetta is well grilled and paired nicely with the burrata and tomato chutney. I had the Delmonico steak and it was cooked nicely. The veal saltimbocca was really good and the bday girl enjoyed it. Lastly they gave her a dessert for her birthday and she loved it. Now we thought we were given the weird half booth because they were busy. It was a Thursday evening and it was half empty during our time there. I would not recommend sitting here. During the dinner we had the server taking care of the booth next to us passing between the two booths. So we had her back end constantly trying to avoid running into our table. She was a thin petite gal so just trying to give you an idea of space. A regular table would have been much nicer for a first time experience. Who knows, maybe it wasn't terrible but after the the way it started, things weren't looking great. Other than the food and drinks. Those were fantastic. Get a table or if its nice out, snag a table! @platedforkim

Food was OK, overpriced for the capabilities of the chef. Service was ssloooww, more concerned about up-sell than actually recommending something good to eat.

What a pleasant surprise; I don't think there was a sip or bite that I didn't thoroughly enjoy tonight. My old fashioned was perfect, the caprese was not at all what I was expecting, but so much better, and my carbonara was also fantastic. Our server Carly was great, offered good paring suggestions, and the whole atmosphere was positive and welcoming. That lemon cheesecake though... so good. Definitely coming back, well done.

We had the most fabulous dinner here. Our server, Franco, was great! Very attentive to us and made good recommendations. Our meals were all delicious! Complements to the chef! The ambiance in this place is so cool! A little eclectic with really neat lighting. It was very comfortable and not loud. The GM stopped by our table when we were done eating to ask about our experience. We had a nice chat with him. We highly recommend Sopra!

Great atmosphere,but this place is way overpriced for the quality of ITALIAN food.26 $ for a carbonara that was not even close to a carbonara ,36$ for a seafood risotto that may as well call it rice purée due to being so over cooked and flavorless. Im from Italy, and I get it that we are not in Italy but if you promote ITALIAN restaurant the basic must be there on how to cook the proper way Really disappointed. Service was good

Our waitress was nice and efficient. The food presentation is very nice and fancy looking but did not taste very good. The appetizer was probably the most flavorful dish of the night. The salad was decent but it was pretty dry. Both main dishes were pretty bland. Lastly for the deserts, the cheese cake was great but the cannoli was dry and flavorless.

Food looked great and tasted good. The waitstaff were charming and very friendly BUT the food too SALTY!

The food wasn't that great for the price. Would just add soon eat dowm stairs. The dessert was awesome. Service was good. Don't let them fool you about business casual. You can wear anything as far as I can tell. Wasd a little disappointed with that.

We went last night and it was the best food, dessert, and service we have ever had! Everyone was so kind that worked there and made my birthday! I got the paglia e fino and it was delicious. You could tell that it was homemade and fresh. My husband got the ribeye and said it was the juiciest and best tasting steak he's ever had. And to top it off the dessert was AMAZING. Can't recommend this place enough!

Me and The Hubs were in town a couple of months ago to celebrate our anniversary. I had made reservations about a month or so prior, thankfully, since it was Mother's Day weekend! In a nutshell, we both had a great time! The food was great, as was the service. Logan was our server and she was so friendly and funny (btw, thank you Logan for putting up with our excessive chatter with you on such a busy night - me and The Hubs maybe had a tad too much to drink...) Anyhoo... I remember that we started with the Grilled Vegetable Antipasto, which was fabulous. We also really enjoyed their complementary bread/cracker basket that came with pesto (I think) and olive tapenade. I'm pretty sure that we both ordered one of the fish/seafood dishes, but can't for the life of me remember which (too many negronis maybe??) Whichever they were, they were fabulous. If we lived in the area, this place would be a regular date night place for us, as well as a special occasion spot. But it's definitely on our list for the next time we're in town overnight!

We ate there last night and we found the food and service to be amazing! We had the four course menu.I had the bruschetta , Cesar salad, bolognese and pumpkin tiramisu. My friend had the halibut with polenta. We brought home a complete dinner as we had a lot of leftovers, but it was so good!

Sopra was a hidden gem with minimal reviews and absolutely delicious authentic Italian options. They're a tapas and wine type bar with a twist of Italy! We tried to eat everything on the menu but that is absolutely impossible. My favorites include the meatballs (so light and delicious), the bruschetta (we had both the margarita & the beef) both of which we absolutely delicious, topped full of toppings and perfectly crisp and cheesy. The pancetta & buratta cheese was soooo delicious. The table agreed that it topped everything! The lobster pasta was the least favorite of what we ordered, but it was still packed full of lobster and delicious. Just to show you how amazing everything was! The service was great! We went on a Tuesday night and the place had empty tables. I'm surprised this place isn't packed every single night of the week! They have a private parking lot which is convenient and they're in a nice little town section of Colorado Springs! When I come back to Colorado springs I hope this place is still popping!

Food was very hit or miss. Same with our cocktails. Service was excellent. I think our servers name was Sara, she was awesome.

Amazing, Wow, can't have enough words to describe the meal, drinks, wine, service...Thank you

I've been wanting to visit Sopra's for a while. As with many of us Covid got in the way. I finally got to visit and I'll start saying my recommendation is you should visit too. It is the upstairs part of paravicini's. They have risotto and polenta dishes pasta dishes gigantic meatball appetizers arincini and a host of other things. The wind this was decent (and I'm a bit of an Italian wine snob according to my wife and daughter). Service is good the food was good I like the place we will definitely go again. And I think you should try it out

went for family dinner to celebrate wife's birthday. They accommodated our party (7) no problem. Pasta was fresh and you can tell made in house, however I do believe mine was a bit over cooked, it happens. That being said food and service was fantastic.

We recently were in town for business, and this spot was perfect for a "thank you" dinner for our team. The ambiance was upscale yet welcoming, and the food was delicious. We were delighted with the server/service, and the team felt cared for--a great experience.

This as a very cute and nice restaurant. The food was excellent and a good wine selection. The staff was friendly and made us feel special on our anniversary date. Jasmine was our waitress and she was so kind, friendly and professional! We sat inside and the ambiance was unique. The guests were eclectic and fun but the outside patio looked just as nice and would make for a romantic dinner if you get to catch the sunset over the mountains

If you are looking for a restaurant that is a little more upscale, this is the spot! At least, from what I have seen, this restaurant seems to be the most upscale in the general Old Colorado City area. The inside is very clean and classy, the perfect spot for a date, special occasion/celebration, etc.! Note that to get to the restaurant, there is a door on the SIDE of the building that leads you up some stairs, and the restaurant is up there! I went into the main level of the building through the front door at first, and had to be rescued by the other member of my party. No biggie, though! There is a parking lot for guests which is very convenient, and if you park in that parking lot you'll see the door/staircase I am referring to! The food was very good. They brought out focaccia bread with house made pesto and olive tamponade - all absolutely delicious! I ordered the Pasta Carbonara and it was very good. I had them make it vegetarian which was no problem, the only issue was that they could not remove the egg and I typically do not eat eggs but it wasn't noticeable in the dish and everything was very tasty! The only downside I would say with this restaurant is there's not really much on the menu that is inherently vegetarian, but personally I didn't have an issue with that. Overall I wouldn't say that their menu is incredibly extensive, but what they do offer is excellent. The service was lovely! Our waitress was very sweet and personable, she was very helpful at making recommendations on the menu and got our orders correct, even with the special request (you'd be surprised how often this is not the case [for me]). She was friendly, polite, and did an excellent job gauging the appropriate times to table touch and pause our conversation. She did not rush us by any means, but she also was not slow. As well, the food arrived very quickly once we placed our order, which surprised us both! The manager did a table touch at one point during our meal, which I always think is nice to see. Overall everyone we interacted with was very friendly and engaged. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant! I am not sure how busy they get, but note that they do accept reservations!

2nd time at this great spot. Great service and food. Loved their bread/cracker basket with pesto and tapenade. I had fish for dinner, everything was delightful.

This is one of my favorite places in Colorado Springs for a romantic dinner. Love the homemade pasta and fish menu items.

The seasonal stuffed zucchini flowers or whatever it's called was very good! Grilled octopus was very tough and lacked flavor. The lobster paperdelle was very good and I was surprised to see so many baby lobster claws, I was expecting little lobster shreds. The scallops entree was delicious! Braised beef pasta was alright according to my husband. Now for dessert.... we were read the specials, and chose our dessert, after 10 mins out server came to tell us they were out of X dessert but they have Y instead, so we ordered that, another 5 mind later, she told us they don't have that either... We ended up getting the creme brulee and 2 coffees. The coffees were not very good. The creme brulee was awful...Such a shame to end the meal like this. The sugar on top was so thick, you almost needed a hammer and chisel to Crack it, and then every mouthful had raw sugar crystals in it. The top layer of the creme brulee is supposed to be a thin layer of caramelized sugar.. look at pic to see what we received.. the whole thing was inedible. Such a shame to be told the desserts we wanted wasn't available and to end up eating this.

It was 5:30 NYE. A small group of us are seated in the patio (glassed in), but not in their beautiful dining room. It takes some time before our wait person come to take even a drink order. We order a bottle of sparkling wine. When it finally comes they don't even have champagne glasses. We were told they were out. At 5:30 they were already out?! The service was very slow, but we understood it was a very busy night and I'm sure they were understaffed. We didn't mind as we kept our discussions going. When we finally got our food, one persons scallops were just lukewarm. The Halibut I had was over cooked and chewy even though the flavor was good. We finally finished our meal and paid our bills and left at 9PM. A little disappointing overall.
