As a vegan going to a tapas restaurant you have to go in expecting to only to be able to eat bread and salad hold the cheese. I was SO pleasantly surprised and the dishes that were already vegan and those that could be made vegan. We ordered the potatoes chips (no dip for me, gigante beans, bread (they gave us olive oil and butter), olives, cónica squash, and farro risotto which was all vegan. The farro risotto was amazing. And to top it off there was vegan sorbet affogato. Soooo good. My partner who eats meat got the meatballs and liked it a lot. I was so pleased to be able to get filled by a variety of vegan options. Our cocktails were great too. I look forward to coming back to try the other vegan options. read more

It's just genuinely not an experience anyone NEEDS to have in Denver tbh. The food is pretty good and love the drinks. BUT, the wait times are absolutely insane. There really needs to be a better management system. Our reservation was at 6:45 and while waiting, we were crammed in the corner of the overly packed bar for an hour and a half just to get a message that our table would be ready in 10 minutes! I've been multiple times in the evening--always with a reservation-- and have never had the pleasure of under a 40 minute wait. Have only been back multiple times because friends want to try it, not because I would recommend. You can find similar vibes and food at other places in Denver truthfully. I hope they figure out a way to not have a reservation feel like a walk-in because then genuinely what is the point in that. Side note: The servers and bartenders do an amazing job and are very kind! read more

Perfect staff, food, ambiance. The manager was all over the place taking care of stuff, hostesses were very gracious and jumped in whenever I needed something from a question to making sure I had my takeout spot on. Bartender josh? Was amazing and I am sure a somalia wine expert. I had vague idea of wine I drank before and he sd try this, it was perfectly spot on. And the food, oh so awesome. Tried trout, meatballs and bolognese rigatoni. Best we've had in awhile. I only wish we lived in the neighborhood to come daily. Definitely our go to for nights we're in town. If you want to open in Colorado Springs you will be welcome here!! read more

Place is so fun and perfect for a girls night out or date night . Really great vibes and places was packed. The risotto and arancini were our favorite dishes of the night. Surprisingly the only thing that wasn't our favorite was the wine. They had a good selection but a bit overpriced for a small pour. read more

Loved it here! Tapas style dishes that are mostly French or Italian. I went with 3 other people and we ended up getting around 10 plates to share, which was a sufficient amount of food. Very great ambiance here. Love that you can try so many different things since they are small plates. read more

Ok late night menu came in clutch! They are one of the few excellent restaurants in Denver open late and they have a special menu from 10 PM to 12AM. The staff was lovely and welcoming and had excellent suggestions. The food was DELICIOUS! Ricotta toast and meatballs were our faves. The vibe and ambiance of the restaurant are perfect for a date night or just a stop in for some small bites. 10/10 recommend!!! read more

Vince and Ambi!!!!! They made the day! So kind, the best service! 10/10 you must come here L-I-T-E-R-A-L-L-Y for them alone. Also the food is great. read more

We went last week and were blown away by the food and the service. The drinks were very well balanced and the food was unique and very special. We also had wine which we liked very much. There were so many tasty vegetable options. We started off with happy hour and continued on to dinner. All the recommendations were top notch and the staff was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive, including the servers and the manager. We also loved the interior "industrial/antique" vibe of the decor inside. This will be part of our regular places. Can't wait to go again real soon. read more

This was our second time enjoying this amazing restaurant. Pĩpe took amazing care of us at the bar. If you haven't been here before then you are truly missing out! The cocktails are hand crafted and delicious. Perfect for your NEW Summer spot. The Ahi carpaccio was to die for at Corsica. Highly recommend! Thanks Pĩpe, we will be back to see you soon! read more

I adore restaurants with small-plate concepts and don't mind paying a lot for good food, especially when it's French, Spanish, and Italian inspired. I'm leaving such a challenging review because this restaurant's food lacks sincerity. Worse, it's contributing and arguably now leading a trend that's hurting Denver's food scene: Beautiful interior, good drinks, and attractive people, but desperately overpriced, bland food. Yes, the drinks are good. Accompanied with six friends, some of whom were from North America and East Asia, we had a diverse range of preferences. Half the table were self-proclaimed foodies, and the other half just like the basics. This is a collection of our table's thoughts: The "Veau aux Olives" is claimed by the menu as "traditional Corsican" though it has shiitake mushrooms (not from Corsica) which could be acceptable had it not been so alarmingly oversalted. The "Mussels L 'Aziminu" is a mussels dish brandishing saffron as what sets it apart, but you couldn't taste any saffron (a costly and robust spice) as dill (a cheap and easy spice) was the overpowering flavor. The "Corsican Frites" were glorified via presentation, but were modest European-style fries--think chips like in the UK--and when you take a bite the skin separates from the insides of the potato. What's to say about the "Chicken Liver Mousse"? It had a standard flavor profile, lacking that rich fatty flavor characteristic of the dish, but was three bites and $14. I'm not sure what the chef accomplished curating that on the menu. The only compliment for the pasta was that for European-inspired food, the pasta itself wasn't over or undercooked, though this only requires a watchful eye on a timer. The "Rigatoni Bolognese" was fine, but didn't have any discernable flavors to be proud of. But the "Gemelli 'Cacio e Pepe'" was the most concerning of all. It was dry and only tasted like a hint of black pepper--my guess is that the cheese had been left out too long and had lost its luster. All the good reviews of this place seem to be from people who know a staff member. And that's why I'm sorry to leave this review because I too have a friend that works here. Restaurants like Corsica make people feel like they'll be called cheap for not liking a place that's destined to be trendy. These aren't small plates, they're minuscule bowls--see for yourself--that are average at best. "At least the espresso martini is good" every Denverite will say as they leave Corsica hungry, scratching their heads confused about what just happened. read more

WOW! Food, service, atmosphere, drinks...there isn't a bad thing I can say about this place! We each ordered a cocktail which were delicious. We then ordered the whipped ricotta toast and the broccoli Caesar to start.... both delicious. For our main meal we shared several plates such as muscles, cacio y pepe, mushroom arancini, meatballs, and pork belly. The portions were perfect to share between 2 people. While it was a little pricey, we got to try many different fine dishes so I would definitely say it's worth it. We cannot wait for our next date here!! read more

One of the best meals I've ever had. Flavors & textures were surprising $ delightful. Service was good. Waiter Will was knowledgeable about all the dishes. Inside was a little loud, so we sat outside. It's my new favorite restaurant read more

TL;DR, Go now while you have the chance because I'm sure once word spreads about their food, it'll be hard to get a reservation. Order the chips, frites, meatballs, branzino, beef brochettes, and tiramisu. Sit at the bar and chat with the staff. We found this place on the second night of opening their doors. Corsica sits on a corner in RiNo not too far from its sister restaurant, Barcelona, and boasts French and Italian inspired tapas with a stunning wine and cocktail menu to match. We sat at the bar (open seating) and were immediately greeted by Meghan and she walked us through the menu of wines by the glass, cocktails, beers and aperitifs; their extensive wine by the bottle list, and the food menu, which consisted of four parts: apéro (small bites to enjoy with your first drink), then small plates of vegetables and meat, then a selection of pastas followed by meat and fish "main" plates, and finally, desserts. We started with the salt and vinegar chips with chive aioli and the farm egg. The chips were OUTSTANDING, and I could have easily eaten my body weight in them, they are not to be missed, and although I enjoyed the the egg, I could see it not being for everyones pallete. We chatted with the Som, Austin, and he recommended a beautiful bottle of wine to pair with our next plates: meatballs, baked lumache, and Corsican frites. The meatballs were perfectly salty, charred, and paired with a bright red sauce, I highly recommend them. The frites were thick cut and cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and buttery in the inside, and served with a Calabrian chili ketchup and aioli, also would not miss these. To finish, we opted for the branzino, pork milanese, and beef brochettes. The steak was melt in your mouth and served with a rich, green peppercorn sauce; the milanese was crunchy and paired with housemade pickled veggie, both great options, but the branzino...that was my favorite dish of the evening. The fish was exceptionally cooked with crispy skin and a kiss of char that played off the juxtaposition of the cool fregola tossed in a bright and refreshing pistachio pesto. Whatever you do, get the branzino. It was subtle and beautiful and exactly the kind of bite that made me sit back and savor its simplicity. How could something so simple be so damn good. After being blown away by dinner, we couldn't pass up dessert, and neither should you. Their tiramisu was one of the best I've had, not too sweet, not too creamy, well balanced, and a perfect end to our meal. Even though our dinner was one of the best meals we've had in Denver, the night wouldn't have been the same without the fantastic FOH team. The bartenders Meghan, Meghan, Chance, and Caitlin, along with the Som, Austin, the GM, Michael, and Mimi (who I didn't get a chance to ask her position) were all incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and took the time to chat with us about the food, give their reccomendations, and made sure our glasses were never empty. I don't think I can say enough good things about this restaurant, and if you aren't already driving there, what are you even doing with your life? read more

Everything was amazing! The food, the service, the atmosphere and the art on the walls too! We found the place on YELP and haven't stopped talking about it! Service was exceptional. I'm gluten free and our server went above and beyond to help us order appropriately. The Food was very interesting and full of lots of amazing flavors. Server was informative and patient! We ordered a bunch of different items and all were quite unique. Lots of unique ingredients! Really great! My cocktail was pretty darn good as well! The manager stopped over several times to check on us and we had a nice chat about the restaurant, its origin and the food too. We were seated near the kitchen and we could see all the activity. All staff got a long nicely and helped out when needed. I wish we lived closer as we'd defiantly be back! Check it out - you won't be disappointed! read more

Talk about an underrated restaurant! I initially didn't even know what Corsica was, but I had driven by a few times and the drawings on the outside of the building drew me in. I'm so glad I finally stopped in, because it did not disappoint at all! They have a great wine selection (we had a Spanish wine that was amazing). The food is small bites that are just big enough to share, and very reasonably priced. We tried the cannelloni, meatballs, and Brussels. The cannelloni had a very faint lemon taste to it that mingled perfectly with the ricotta cheese. The sauce was also flavorful, and well balanced. I honestly don't think I've ever had a meatball so well seasoned. It wasn't spicy, but had some sort of a kick to it that left me wanting to order another one! The Brussels with trout were probably my favorite. The earthiness of the veggies blended with the smoky, saltiness of the fish was a match made in heaven. Our waitress was very helpful, understood the menu well, and explained everything to us. We will definitely be back to try all the other amazing dishes! read more

This place is so great. Everything on the menu rocks. Service is fantastic, atmosphere is lovely. The shrimp and meatballs go so hard. Great wine too. This being anything less than 5 stars is criminal. read more

My friend and I stopped into Corsica for a drink and some snacks. We had a great time! The atmosphere of Corsica is superb! I spent the entire evening wishing I was in France.

We'll be coming back soon! read more

Tough one. Appetizer, olive leaf wrapped lamb concoction was excellent but the drink was not great. How can you not know how to make a Manhattan? Couldn't really taste the whisky because it was so over-vermouthed. On top of that they had the nerve to charge $26!? This isn't Manhattan by any stretch so stop pretending. I'll get a beer next time. Can't screw that up. read more

The Good: The wine. The decor. Variety of menu when you're sick of Barcelona wine bar The Bad: Biggest complaint is you make a reservation and still have to wait an hour. Vibe isn't as nice as Barcelona and if you get seated at the tables near the bar it sucks cuz it's very crowded. The food- I feel like with Barcelona you forgive the food a bit since it's a nice vibe. The vibe at Corsica doesn't make up for the food and cost. read more

I've been so excited for Corsica to open, and i can't confidently say, they exceeded my expectations! The staff is incredibly helpful and you can tell they really care about giving their diners a premium experience. The decor is just as unique as their diverse menu. I don't eat meat, and i had plenty of options, which is always a nice surprise. (My meat eating friends enjoyed their meat dishes as well). The tapas style menu is great because you can try many different things when you go. I'm so excited to go back and get completely different dishes than my first time there. read more

If u make a reservation here, just show up 45 mins late because they don't know how to manage their waitlist/reservations

Food was good, service great. But the music.. Jesus. It made me want to leave. Serious, the dance music is F'ing garbage and makes me want to leave this place immediately. I feel so bad for the staff that have to listen to this sh%*. I will not come back if this horrendous ear trash continues.. read more

Corsica has a vibrant, loud (in a good way), and eclectic vibe. Food and drink options are unique, delicious, and I can't wait to go back and try more. The service is on point; our server had great recommendations and didn't miss a beat. The only complaint I have is the building isn't efficiently air conditioned. The two rooms outside of the main room are quite literally 20° hotter and it was VERY hot and uncomfortable. I cannot imagine how hot it will be in there during peak summer. So, I would request outside or in the main restaurant. read more

Wine Bar. SAY LESS. Okay let's just state the obvious, the aesthetics are on point. But let's talk about it the service. Pipe was hands down the most genuine and thoughtful server. He took time to go over the menu and give me his recommendations (which BTW, we tried most of them!) we also met the GM who was so sweet and down the earth. You cannot beat the heart that is pumping through this restaurant. The stuffed dates were my absolute favorite but you honestly can't go wrong with anything on the menu. We also tried the tuna carpaccio, baked lumache, & the mussels! My hat goes off to the chef on these tapas! All to die for!!! But WAIT, the dessert - the tiramisu IS A MUST. I felt like I had an espresso martini. 10/10 hands down. If you haven't checked them out and are debating on a spot, come here. Whether it's a date night, dinner with friends or a dinner w/ your girls - this is the place to go. read more

Amazing food, truly amazing food. But here's the thing... we made a reservation for 7:45 on a Friday night and when we arrived 10mins early, we got told that they "don't tell people to leave once they're sat so it'll be like 20 mins" which was fine I totally get that but an hour later after waiting at the bar we FINALLY get our table at which we just decided to order at the bar because we got lucky and found a spot. We also weren't the only ones this happened to. So, all in all, the food is great but make a reservation early or show up early because even with a reservation you're not guaranteed a spot, which is a little f'ed up to me. Either honor reservations or don't take reservations because I didn't make a reservation just to be put on a waitlist.... read more

Had a wonderful experience here! The food comes out quick and is delicious and flavorful. The service was good- I do wish the water was refilled more often.

So good. Loved the food and very accommodating with detailing which dishes were gluten free. Also loved the 3 oz pours and reasonable wine prices so you could build your own tasting. Service was better than I've experienced in many Denver restaurants lately. We enjoyed the Caesar, sopressatta, cacio e Pepe, bavette, and some desserts. The chocolate ganache looked like melted chocolate on a plate, nothing special so I would pass on that next time. Great experience all around! read more

Was recommended this place and it did not disappoint. Make sure to make reservations cause this place filled up fast and the wait looked very long- and it was a Tuesday night! Parking in rino is the worst, so be prepared for that. And it took me a minute to figure out this building was the restaurant because there really isn't any signs nor does it look like a restaurant from the outside. This seemed like the new hip spot. Great place to just come for drinks and appetizers or dinner. Come with an appetite and get ready to share all the tapas. Love that's it's small portions so your able to try everything. There's so much to choose from, and of course we went with the servers recommendations. Everything was so good, different and unique. My absolute favorite was the scallops- we had to order it twice. The summer Cesar doesn't look much but it was so refreshing and was a great starter. My least favorite the Salmon rillettes- this stuck out the least to me compared to everything else. It was just very bland. Our server was great, she was attentive and gave us great recommendations and didn't let us over order- which I really appreciate! Def will be back!! read more
