I was visiting Denver and came across Gattara. My coworkers and I decided to stop by for dinner. There is free valet in front of the hotel. The restaurant has in door seating as well as patio seating. Our server Jeanie was awesome!! She went over the menu with us and gave recommendations. She was on point and made sure we had everything we needed. Everything we ordered was delicious! From the appetizers to the desserts. read more

We grabbed lunch here during our stay -- the atmosphere is lovely, and the service was friendly. The menu looked great but the prices were pretty steep for what we got. The food itself was decent -- not bad, just not particularly memorable. I did appreciate that the hotel made dining easy with an on-site option, but for the price, I'd probably venture out next time. read more

I reserved a 7:00 reservation for Valentine's Day and was sat an hour late. Not only that, there was one menu that was given which costed $120/ person. I had no idea of this menu when I reserved a table a month in advance. This was not what I wanted my Valentine's Day to be like. This special occasion was ruined. read more

My husband and I attempted to dine for the Valentine's special, but after sitting for an hour before even receiving our appetizers, we had to leave. The night started okay. We were seated immediately for our 5:30pm reservation, received our glass of wine 20m later, and our pre-appetizer bite 40m in. Despite ordering our apps and mains immediately, no other food had arrived by 6:30pm. Other tables were waiting over an hour for apps as well and becoming distressed. The hostess was in tears. Clearly something was deeply wrong with their operations for the night, but we don't know what. We were unwilling to pay $120/person for such an unenjoyable dining situation, and couldn't stay 3+hrs as we had a babysitter, so we let the staff know that we would be leaving and ordered in at home instead. This was our second time at Gattara, but we will not be back. read more

Ate breakfast here will staying the hotel and the food was great. Pancakes had crispy edges which was a plus for me. Also enjoyed an omelette with all the fixings and potatoes. We' received great customer service and our waitress was on top of everything. Just a wonderful experience being here on a holiday weekend. We even would stop in the evenings and have a few drinks at the bar. The bartenders were very nice and attentive to us. Definitely recommend if you're ever in the area. Loved the vibe of this place. read more

6/10 on the location in town - close to the downtown scene without being in it 8/10 for the ambiance - the space is cute and well designed. I appreciated the modern look of the dining area 3/10 for the food - I was not impressed by the food we ordered. The pizza was good and had an edible crust, but the pasta we ordered was in a brown sauce that was salty and tasted like gravy. It was so odd. If they improved their food I would be back, but there are so many other restaurants in the city to try. read more

The service was phenomenal! Nathan took great care of us and provided laughs after a long day. Restaurant was clean and peaceful with a clever cat theme. The food was delicious and fast. The hotel this is attached to provided a complementary drink which hit the spot. Wonderful place and glad to have found it!! read more

Came here in a big group and we all loved it so much! We were a group of 12 and the staff helped us with a large table perfect for everyone. Our staff was super helpful and patient with our big group. The food was amazing and the portions were huge. Our table got two bottles of wine and they were so good. Lots of people in our group took to go boxes because we had so much food left. The espresso martini was delicious! If you check in you get a discount which was nice too! read more

We took my mother-in-law here when she came to visit around Valentine's Day. She was staying at The Warwick, so it was a no-brainer. It was nice and warm inside since it was frigid outside. Very clean place and our server was pleasant and knowledgeable. We started with the Bom Bom Shrimp which were delightful. MIL loved her risotto. I had the fettucine alfredo with chicken and to be quite honest it was intensely bland. I added so much salt and I am the type of person who literally never touches table salt. I was so disappointed as the meal did not match the price point. I cannot remember what my husband has, but he was also less than impressed. We shared a tiny flight of desserts and they were good, but I don't know that I'd give this place a second chance when there's better pasta out there. read more

Excellent! We tried it for restaurant week and were delighted. The food was delicious. The tiramisu was perfectly decadent. Outstanding service. They had the fireplace going which made it cozy and warm. The cat decor in the bar is fun. And TIL, gattara means "cat lady" in Italian. We will return. read more

Visited a couple of weeks ago on NYE and won't be back. First, couldn't use the online rezzie system (it just wasn't working or is improperly coded or something) and called about an hour before (at 5:15) we had hoped to arrive (at 6:15) to check on the wait and tables. Were told there was no wait and there were tons of tables. Arrive at the aforementioned time to be told there are no more walk ins for the evening even though the restaurant is essentially empty. We ask to speak to the manager seeing as we've just called, couldnt make a reservation and the restaurant is empty. Thankfully, they agreed to seat us in the bar but offer a four top when we only need a two top. Feels weird to be worried about seating but then offer a bigger table than needed.... Anyway, move on to the two top and order a pizza and salad to share. Turns out, the pizzas are in fact rustic style flatbreads instead of actual sauce-based pizzas. It just feels like if youre going to offer an entire menu of pizzas, the style should be discussed so people know what to expect. The flatbread itself was fine but did have a couple of super small pieces of very hard plastic on top; sort of like the plastic you'd find in packaging of bulk items like arugula, pepperoni, etc. I'm not making any assumptions, just saying that is what it seemed like. They were kind enough to comp the pizza given the plastic (and the server was great the whole time) but honestly, the whole experience was bad from start to finish given the rocky start, poor menu descriptions and the vibe. The dining room didn't manage to fill up in our hour or hour and a half there so I cannot be sure why they were so concerned with tables. Like the wallpaper but it really does feel like a super corporate hotel bar.... read more

Was staying at the Warwick, the hotel attached to Gattara, and had to check them out for breakfast. I am a bit easy when it comes to breakfast.. Water, coffee and some carbs does it for me. I ordered the oatmeal and some drip coffee. The sole server/host Amanda was very polite and attentive. She was fun to talk to and we enjoyed a quick laugh over some sarcasm while I gobbled down my oats. The restaurant itself is nice and open with adequate spacing between tables for a bit of privacy while still keeping an intimate setting for all diners just in case they felt like mingling. One final note, the bartender last night was super tired and ready to go home but went out of his way to make me drinks from the drink vouchers we were given at the front desk. I must say, the team here is friendly and accommodating. Came back for lunch and the same host seated me in a quiet nook next to the fireplace when she noticed my laptop bag. Decided on the meatball sando which was done right. They cut the meatballs into slices so they don't pop out like many meatball subs out there. There was a good balance of cheese to sauce and the bread was crunchy on one side and soft on the other (the side that soaked up the sauce). Fries were good and a lil oily, and considering I asked for well done, I got what I asked for. read more

I love this restaurant. Robert is a cool waiter with awesome service and the food here for both breakfast and lunch is yummy. The chorizo burrito is as big as your head, and delicious down to the last bite! The lasagne' bolognese is stellar. An original flavor with the dish! Like take another awesome slice of lasagne', Magianno's, and Gattara's I would actually grade a bit higher, for it's truly original flavor and lots of cheese. A+ every time, interesting salads too. read more

What a stunning sleeper spot! Absolutely gorgeous interior, kitty cat whimsy with comfortable tables/booths. We were greeted and sat by the bartender who was super welcoming and our server was friendly, fun, and had great recommendations. Drinks were stellar. We had a classic dirty martinis and a specialty cocktail followed by happy hour apps of burrata bruschetta with prosciutto and a meatball. Both delicious and an extreme value with happy hr pricing. Pasta time! Do not miss the pappardelle short ribs, the Jack Daniel's sauce and generous portion of short rib had us saying, why tf haven't we been here before!? Gnocchi pesto with shrimp was also a major win. Topped the evening off with pans cotta and espresso martinis. Special occasion or guests in town, this gem inside the Warwick is going to be a staple spot for us from now on. Enjoy! read more

One block away from the office, perfect lunch get away. We came on lunch time, there are 7 of us and seated right away. Cute decorations, as gattara means cat lady;). Lunch was quick, great service and tasty food. I was having chicken sandwich and unsweetened iced tea. Perfecto!! Tutto va bene! read more

Gattara - Italian Chicken Sandwich - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We visited here for a birthday and had a great time. The pizza was good (rare words from a New Yorker, though the dough was just ok) and I'll definitely have it again. Our favorite was the new age pepperoni, which had jalapeno and was recommended by our server. The Bianca (garlic sauce and sausage) was good also and the kids really enjoyed the regular pepperoni. One of them said it was her new favorite place. The cat theme kept the kids' attention as they kept noticing more of it. They had a good ale on tap and my wife enjoyed the wine. The kids had Shirley Temples, which were exciting for them. We also had the ice cream sandwich dessert with salted caramel dip, which easily fed the 3 kids, and the banana bread a la mode with a Rumchatta shot and cinnamon. I enjoyed that a lot, but thought it was better without the Rumchatta. Our server was great, attentive, and had a positive demeanor. read more

The environment and the staff were great. It's a very cute restaurant. Unfortunately the food wasn't so great. I went with a party of 9. All of the food came out fresh and the wait wasn't long but the food was extremely bland. I love risotto and was so excited to try the risotto Milanese but it was a complete letdown as none of the ingredients listed were tasted. My friend had the swordfish which was a special for the day and it was completely over cooked. Multiple people tried the pappardelle short rib and also stated it lacked flavor. The drinks were decent, but overall I wouldn't recommend this restaurant. I really wanted to like it but none of the food was worth it. read more

Excellent wood-fired pizza and a great Happy Hour menu. Loved the patio dining area, and service was attentive even though we were the only diners outside. All that we could've hoped for in a simple, fresh, comforting meal. read more

This place is excellent, and it's important to first say why this place is eligible for 5 stars: (a) they don't add any sort of stupid "kitchen" or "service" fee to the bill to distort their prices downward. What you see is what you pay, plus sales tax and customary US 15 percent tip (which is to be based on the subtotal, not after tax total, contrary to what some restaurants beg for--it's okay to tip more if service was extraordinary, and I nudge the tip up when I see no sketchy extra fee, and no hokey "tip suggestion," unless they start the tip suggestions at 15 percent on the true subtotal), and like the classiest of places, they don't even suggest what you should be tipping (as it used to be everywhere). Thank you. The truffle-based pasta dishes and desserts are exquisite, and their menu generally lives up to its promise: what you see on the website is accurate, and not puffed up. The atmosphere is light and bright, and reflects the Gattara story/name (great). The pricing is smart and competitive: neither underpriced nor overpriced (a critical decision given that the price elasticity of demand for restaurant dining is about 2.3). Their scallop prices had apparently recently jumped, which the waiter kindly informed us of, but I am very sure their new menu print will reflect this (oh yeah: the menus feel and look very nice, and appropriately clean, and not ragged, etc.--amazing how many places cut a little corner there). The space used to be Denver's Playboy Club a long time ago, and is the house restaurant for the Warwick Hotel. Looks like we have a place to come back to fairly often. Our complements to the ownership, management, and staff. Thank you. read more

Server was awesome. Food and ambiance wonderful. Serving size was very good portions.

Gattara had great food and the staff was so welcoming and friendly. It wasn't very busy when I went which could have led to the exceptional service. The food was delicious and reasonably priced for the portions. I added salmon to my salad and got a LARGE piece that was cooked perfectly. The restaurant is cat-themed, with fun decor and wallpaper to fit the theme. They offer both indoor and outdoor dining. read more

Recently had an opportunity to try Gattara before an event downtown. I really love the embrace of everything cat; from the menu to the wallpaper it really comes together. Our wait staff was warm and inviting, kept up on refilling our water and moving us through the meal quickly and efficiently. I had the opportunity to try the spaghetti carbonara for dinner and let me tell you they don't skimp on the pancetta for this meal! The carbonara was tasty and not overly creamy which I enjoyed. This is a very heavy meal so the portion is quite large and I couldn't finish the full plate. Overall, not a bad place to dine if you're downtown for an evening! read more

We discovered this place through Offline and are so happy we did! To start, the host was incredibly welcoming and pleasant and on our way out, he went out of his way to open the door for us. The ambience both indoors and outdoors is really nice and brightly lit. We went on a Wednesday night, but I could see how on a Friday or Saturday it may get loud inside. Our waitress was very pleasant, attentive, and everything came out so fast! We ordered one of the bruschetta's and meatball off of happy hour - both were super tasty! We both agreed the bruschetta was not necessarily what we would consider bruschetta because the bread was very soft, but regardless, it was yummy! We then ordered the pappardelle bolognese and pappardelle short ribs and yum, both were so good! They were also great portions and very well priced, we both left full and with another meal! Very pleased and would definitely return again! read more

This restaurant has been on my list to try for months and I finally went for my friends birthday and was sadly very disappointed. To start, we had called to make a reservation for 8 (you have to call to make a reservation for a group larger than 6) and when we arrived they had a table for 6 available for us. Instead of accommodating us in their normal seating area, which wasn't full at all, they put our large group at an uncomfortable high top table and weren't flexible at all. Overall, the staff seemed inconvenienced by our presence and we felt like they rushed us through our dinner. If you end up eating here though, I would recommend getting the Pappardelle Bolognese or the Gnocchi Triffolati. The Dilicata Salad was over dressed but the salmon on the side was well cooked. The bruschetta flight and the meatball & marinara from the happy hour menu were good but both could have used a little more flavor. Overall, the food was fine. Also wanted to add that to use the bathroom, you have to go inside the hotel attached and get a code to enter. read more

Came in and were expecting a lot more people, I believe it was us, and maybe 2 other tables. We were seated and given water almost immediately. Wait staff was courteous and kind during the whole night. I ordered the Chicken Alfredo, but was brought out the wrong dish. Not to worry, we got to keep the wrong dish, and I was given my Alfredo. It was good! Much better than your standard American Italian like Olive Garden. The drinks are well made as well. The inside is nice and simple. Nothing overtly Italian in the decor but that's fine, it doesn't have to be. Parkin is a bit odd here, we parked on the street behind the restaurant which is also connected to the hotel. We'd be back when in the area and craving something a little better than Olive Garden. read more

Gattara is an Italian-American eatery located inside the Warwick Denver hotel. We dined at Gattara for the first time for a double date over the weekend and had a wonderful time. We arrived at Gattara and General Manager, Dave showed us to our table. Gattara means cat-lover in Italian and the restaurant had several areas with cat illustrations playfully popping up. Dave ensured we had everything we needed to begin our meal. Our server Chaunty was so sweet and had stellar recommendations. To start I had the La Crema Chardonnay 2020, Sonoma Coast, CA. The chardonnay hit my nose with white florals & lemon; it was juicy on the palate with flavors of crisp apple. Brooke had the Benvolio, Prosecco from Veneto, Italy. The Prosecco was vibrant and crisp and made for a good pairing with Gattara's burrata. For starters we had the Meatballs Bolognaise, Burrata E Prosciutto, and the Crispy Calamari. The Meatballs Bolognaise were made with tomato conserva, grana padano, and served alongside grilled ciabatta. The meatballs were nice & meaty in flavor - a very hearty starter. The Burrata E Prosciutto was made with grilled ciabatta, prosciutto, tomato, tomato jam, and arugula. The burrata was milky, prosciutto gorgeously salty, & the tomatoes bright. The Crispy Calamari was made with arugula, tomato jam, and lemon preserve. The calamari had a nice crisp exterior while it was tender & chewy on the inside. For Pizza we had the Gattara Originali, New World Pepperoni made with tomato conserva, mozzarella, fresh jalapenos, cream cheese, & Applewood smoked bacon. The New World Pepperoni pizza blew us away - it was so good and a must order when dining at Gattara. The pizza was baked in a pizza oven which puffed the crust's edges and made it very thin towards the middle. The cream cheese made for creamy bites & the mozzarella for buttery cheese pulls. The jalapeno's added nice green color to the pie while also lending a snap in texture. The applewood smoked bacon enhanced the pizza with a smoky sweetness. For Entrees we had the Salmone Alla Griglia, Lobster Ravioli, Fettuccini Alfredo with Shrimp, & the Spaghetti Fruti De Mare. The Salmone Alla Griglia was made with pesto risotto, cherry tomato, zucchini, roasted peppers, grana, & sweet balsamic glaze. The salmon was mild and delicate in taste while the flavorful mixture of pesto kicked this dish up a notch. The Lobster Ravioli was made with cream, tomato conserva, arugula, & lemon oil. Warm, rich & creamy - each large, square ravioli held a smooth filling of lobster & cheese. The Fettuccini Alfredo with Shrimp was made with white wine cream sauce, roasted heirloom tomatoes, grana Padano, & pecorino. The sautéed shrimp were mildly sweet and went well with the nuttiness from the parmesan alfredo sauce. The Spaghetti Fruti De Mare was a Dinner Special and made with white wine tomato sauce, mussels, clams, calamari, & shrimp. The white wine tomato sauce was mild and showcased the seafood in the pasta. The long tender noodles and meaty seafood made for hearty bites. Red pepper flakes added great spice in this dish. For Sweets we had the Housemade Ice Cream Sandwich, Bread Pudding, Cheesecake, & Torta. The Housemade Ice Cream Sandwich was made with fresh baked chocolate chip cookie, vanilla gelato, & caramel rum sauce. The Ice Cream Sandwich was elite. The fresh baked chocolate chip cookie was huge and hugged the cold vanilla gelato in its center. The cookie had crunch & chew at the same time. The caramel rum sauce was sticky, buttery rich and clung to the ice cream sandwich with each dip. A must order. The Bread Pudding was made with brioche, vanilla custard, caramel rum sauce, & vanilla gelato. The bread pudding had our mouths watering. The dessert was baked to perfection and had a wonderful cakey, custardy texture. The brioche was piping hot and the contrast of it against the cold vanilla gelato was delicious. read more

We joined them on Christmas Eve. Was it a bit of a disorganized mess? Yup. Were the manager and staff able to overcome it with exceptional service? Yup. The food turned out just fine. The wine list is very limited. They did the best they could given the holiday. They were pleasant and professional and accommodated where they were able. I give them an "A" for effort and a B- on food. Thank you. read more

I really don't know about the pizza and the pics of the place look very cool... and I literally live so close... However, this review is in reference to multiple times that I have delivery ordered their burger and fries! I order it well done with no mayo and it comes with fries and it's the perfect savory with a touch of sweet from the bacon tomato jam. It's um definitely my "monthly" go to. It one hundred trumped my former Five Guys crush for the monthly craving situation. It's the perfect portion and tastes fresh fresh fresh!!!! I am new to Denver and I see that there are a ton of burger places. Maybe they all taste this good? Even if they do, this is my neighborhood go to and I WILL experience the dining area at some point soon! read more

The food here was pretty darn good. My date ordered pizza and a salad. I ordered the crispy pesto chicken. The chicken was so delicious and flavored so well. The salad was tasty and the spinach-cheese pizza was bland. There was no flavor in the pizza sauce. The packaging was well done and the food was nice and hot when it arrived (I live a block away). Good spot to go to on a date or order to go. The prices are kinda steep but hotels always price their food higher so it was expected. read more

Its a good Italian restaurant that is adjacent to Warwick hotel. I tried their creamy pesto alfredo pasta and was so content by it. It was tasty and very filling. The portion sizes are big . I really enjoyed their godfather cocktail. Definitely one of top cocktails I've tasted. I also tried their seasonal sorbet, maybe not the best dessert to pair with the rest of the meal. I feel like I should have tried the tiramisu instead. The sorbet itself is good and refreshing. Definitely a good place to try out in the downtown area! read more

There is metered street parking nearby. This is a big restaurant connected to a hotel. I got the truffle mushroom gnocchi. It was alright. The mushrooms were pretty flavorful but the gnocchi with the sauce was alright. Portion was decent. My friend got the fettucine alfredo. It literally had no taste... we tried to add salt to help but it didn't. He then used a lemon and squeezed lemon juice on it and said it helped. But yeah, it was super bland. He said the bruschetta was ok. We got 3 free oysters with the bruschetta and those were good. Overall, just meh. read more

Went to dinner here with a friend before a show downtown and had a great meal. We arrived at 5:30 pm and it was a nice surprise to find out that they have happy hour till 7pm, and you can enjoy it in the dining room. Therefore, we both started out with a glass of wine and a Caprese Salad from their happy hour menu. The salad had a delicious thick slice of mozzarella topped with a fresh tomato slice, arugula, and a nice drizzle of a balsamic glaze. We then split an order of the Jack Daniel's Glazed Short Ribs and the Cheese Ravioli with a Lobster Cream Sauce. The plate of short ribs had two good sized pieces of meat which were very tender and a lot less fatty than I expected. The light sauce was delicious, over the ribs, and was great mixed in to the mashed potatoes. The broccoli and carrots that were served with it were perfectly cooked, and a great accompaniment. The ravioli was good, however there were not any pieces of lobster in the sauce, which I had hoped for. The restaurant has a warm and spacious interior with a beautiful fireplace, and lots of cute cat pics. Our server, Chaunty, was very attentive. It made for a perfect pre-theater dinner and I will definitely be visiting this restaurant again. read more

Gattara (cat lady in Italian) is a restaurant attached to a hotel on the edge of downtown Denver. If you are looking for place to gather friends or family, and feel as if a section of the restaurant has been put aside just for you, this is a destination to consider. Here you will find different nooks, including some with large round tables, that invite private and unobstructed conversation. The restaurant offers a selection of craft beers and wine that can pair well with the menu items (tip -- stick to Italian dishes, but the oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwich with caramel sauce is an exception). Gattara is a peaceful place to relax and reconnect. Street parking is fee-free on weekends. read more
