The menu covers a lot of ground. The pasta carbonara was an excellent take on that classic, and for dessert, the tiramisu stood out. They've got local beers are on tap and the cocktails are exemplary Read more

I have been here close to 20 times and have yet to be disappointed by a dish. The best food was by far a special steak with gorgonzola sauce. If you like great Italian you will love this place.

When in doubt, go with dishes flavored by the old-school Gaetanoâs, including meatballs (offered both as an app and a side), lasagna and gnocchi Read more

The mixologist here is amazing! Ask Tony to make your drink and he will give you all the details. Let him make you a special drink and pair it with the cheese fondue!

Possibly one of the most authentic, old-world, traditional Italian eateries in Denver. It has the ambiance, food and drinks to make it great

delicious authentic Italian, ask your server for the history of the restaurant. I will definitely be back and will bring friends.

Great ambiance, amazing food in a Denver institution... Start at the bar... Tony is an awesome bartender, hell the whole staff is great!

Chicken Marsala was excellent - be prepared to enjoy generous amounts of garlic. The gnocchi was tasty, but the consistency was too mushy.

Excellent home-made pasta (the carbonara was great), creative cocktails, lovely bread.

You just can't go wrong here. Everything I've ever eaten, I'd order again and again! Sausage and peppers....heaven.

Gnocchi was great. Excellent atmosphere.

I thought the food was good. Oysters were fresh, not a huge fan of the casino clams, but the meatballs were good and so was the bolognese.

I've been coming here for 20 years and am thoroughly disappointed in what this place has become. Steer clear if you want to cherish the old Gaetano's.

The fresh baked bread and oil is Awesome!

Great atmosphere and superb food.

The spaghetti and ravioli were subpar ... even cold. The risotto croquettes, however, were yum.

Come visit Buzz during the week at hh, 3-6pm. Awesome women, even better jokes!
