Delicious Italian restaurant! We decided to give it a try for our date night yesterday. The location is a bit interesting and the place doesn't look that great from the outside but when you walk in it's actually very pretty and cozy inside. We liked the food a lot especially the home made pasta. It was delicious! The service was very good as well. Nice personal and very accommodating to my onion intolerance. I wish they moved this location to orchard Town center as it would do great there. My husband and I highly recommend this restaurant!!!

We ordered online got the family style with alfredo. In the description and in the picture it shows broccoli and chicken. When we got home with out order there was no chicken. We called to ask for the missing item the lady couldn't help us and said that's how it comes. The menu should be updated because this false advertisement. There's no option to even add meat when ordering. Pretty disappointed and probably won't be spending my money here when we spent over $80. *yes i was refunded $12 (still haven't received that refund) for the missing chicken hours after the initial conversation, because there was no manager on on-site and it was due to miscommunication with their kitchen staff. Issue could have been handled the first time we contacted you and missing chicken could have simply been replaced instead of insisting that is how the meal came. Have a good day.

I really wanted to like this place. It looks so cheap inside. While dining, there was kids screaming and running around. No employee seemed to want to say anything to that party. The food was very subpar for how expensive it is. The burrata cheese was cold in the middle and missed the mark on the wow factor. The cocktails were watered down.

This was delicious! The serving was large and filling. The breakfast potatoes were crispy and flavourful. The omelet was full of large fresh ingredients. The wait staff was friendly and prompt despite being busy. I am looking forward to trying the lasagna later.

I was with my partner for a final night in Colorado so we stopped by! It became the night we were looking for in terms of food and cuisine! Everything was lovely from entering to leaving. The bread was so delicious! The food was gorgeous and scrumptious. Thanks for a final night together in Colorado!

I first went to this Scalzotto’s about a year ago. That first experience was amazing - the best Caesar salad I’ve ever had, amazing delicious pasta. Since then it seems like they’ve focused too heavily on cutting costs to the point that it isn’t worth the price any longer. Tonight we went and ordered the Caesar salad as always - it was so small it barely could even be considered a side salad and they charge $7 for it! The first time we went they had tossed the salad but now they just drizzle a small amount of dressing on it. Definitely not worth the price for what it is. For my entree I got the pesto gnocchi add chicken. The gnocchi on its own is $19 then the chicken is another $4. The portion size was so tiny and the chicken was 4 small thin strips (see picture). It appears they’ve consistently raised the prices while also cutting back on portions pretty much every time we’ve gone this past year. I have 20+ years experience in the food industry and I can tell you that the quality and especially amount of food provided is nowhere near the price they are charging. $4 for barely any chicken is highway robbery. It will be a long time before I go back here as it’s just not worth it anymore - there are better restaurants that will actually provide a value for what you pay and this is not one of them.

Excellent food for the area. It's a good in between of fancy and family friendly. Not too expensive but not cheap either. $70 for two with an appetizer. Overall, not too bad. We'll be back.
