Sarto's

Absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. Staff were charming and super safe with COVID precautions. All of our food was phenomenal: gnocchi tots, elk ravioli, squid ink linguine and a gorgeous piece of steak were the highlights. Server made excellent wine recommendations, and the space itself is beautiful, bright and clean inside and out.

Arrived solo around 12:30 for Sunday brunch on a warm Denver summer day, and it was relatively empty. I sat outside and enjoyed the weather in the shade, while greeted by very professional staff. I originally ordered the Stromboli, which after a 20 minute wait came bad news. Catering for a party took priority and my Stromboli would take another 30+ min to make (other meals would be quicker). Apologetic, the wait staff offered me comped Gnocchi Tots, which were delicious. I went on to order the Carbonara per suggestion, and that was delicious as well. Between the wait staff and the food that I did get, it was all top notch and welcoming despite the mishap on the original meal. They also surprised me and comped the whole meal, which I did not expect or or desire. I look forward to trying this place out for dinner soon, and recommend it to any date, solo person, or group outing.

I was actually shocked when I learned I hadn't written a review for Sartos yet. I've lived in Denver for only 1 year and have probably been to Sarto's over 10 times. I'll be sure to add pictures next time I am there. I would say it is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. It is off the beaten path enough from downtown that it has a local feel. It is tastefully decorated and always clean and lit exquisitely. They rotate their menu frequently, but always keep a few of my favorite dishes. While their dishes are presented clean and simple, they have a great layer of tastes. Unlike other Italian restaurants that try to kill you with obscene portions, Sartos serves appropriate portions which I greatly appreciate. They have a great wine and cocktail selection as well. Other than one bad service experience with a server who was not around too long, the service has been absolutely top notch. Keep up the good work Sartos!

We topped in for happy hour on a Sunday. The female bartender was very friendly, engaging, and helpful. She made me a fabulous Campari cocktail with grapefruit. Small bites are available during happy hour. We enjoyed a perfectly balanced arugula salad along with the prosciutto with robiolina cheese, grissini, and a cranberry-mustard sauce. Delicious! We'll be back to try dinner.

Wow! Everything was delicious, everything. I bravely ordered squid ink pasta (black pasta!) and it was heavenly. Looked atrocious so it had to be good. Perfectly cooked pasta with gulf shrimp in a scampi like sauce. Our server Shane was divine. We splurged on a "cellar" wine and was not disappointed. After breathing, it was exceptional. Seasonal menu. The gnocchi tots... omg. The ice creme peach dessert is not to be missed. Coffee perfect!

Friend and I came here with a Denver Eats passbook and we are highly satisfied. The waiter was so friendly and gave us suggestions for other restaurants from my book, but the food was AMAZING! We had the chicken with rissoto and we couldn't stop eating. Lovely environment and great good and wine. Will come back next time im in town.
