    The box of goodies we ordered  " to go"
    Sara M.

    I had read a review from a friend who knows his Italian food so on our way home from a retail stop in Lakewood, we took the slow route up Kipling to Wheat Ridge. We enjoyed our lunch as the food was good and the staff so friendly. It reminded me, in a good way, of some old school Italian neighborhood eateries on Long Island 40 years ago. Simple tasty food and pastries and the retail shop set up for Christmas specialties. I miss some of these things where I live now, with meatball sandwiches either cheap chains or very much too heavy on garlic. Today's was very good, a soft warm roll, with tender tasty meatballs, a neutral and tomato dominant flavor and melty mozzarella. They offer various sides as options on the plate so my husband chose the fries over chips or peppers. They were beautiful fresh potato, skin on fries. He ate both of our portions as they had nicely split the meal for us I eat small lunches and rarely allowed anything fried. I would have eaten my share if I "could" have. The woman at the neighboring table saw the arrive and ran back to the counter to change her order for her side to be fries, as she had missed it on the list! They quickly accommodated her as you would expect from a family operated business. On the way out we decided to get some pastries to take home. I always order cannoli when available and the had so many flavors. I always take the traditional with ricotta based filling and chocolate on the ends. I have usually had the flavoring of the ricotta cream as vanilla based most of the year and citrus and candied rind in the cream near Christmas as my local Italian bakeries of my youth were owned by Sicilian immigrants who have their own style of pastries. This cannoli had filling that was Amaretto predominant, quite surprising to me. We also bought some cookies too. I chose a favorite almond style with sliced nuts on top and a gentle amount of almond paste inside, nicely subtle and chewy without being over flavored as the cannoli. The other cookies were the same dough batter with either a lemon or cherry jam dollop in the center. If we. On my way! This way again, we will certainly stop in. The Italian pastas and other breads and holiday treats are easily available in Boulder where we live. The eating area was certainly ample for a late lunch like we had today and the drinks were self serve from machines in the dining area and the place was spotless as it appeared that they both delivered the food and bussed the tables with staff. A lot of the other customers were locals well known by the staff. If I lived closer or came this way frequently, I would stop in again.

    This place reminds me of my grandparents. My grandmother would make Italian desserts a lot, which is also why I love coming here. It makes me think of her. My favorite is the regular cannolis! They're big in size, and so delicious. Honestly, every dessert is pretty great! Fresh too!

    Don't judge a book by its cover. I had high expectations being from NJ. I was so excited to come here and then I wasn't when I pulled up. Not exactly what I picture as an Italian market. BUT I have to say the chicken cutlet on the parm sandwich was so crispy and the sauce was good. Points off for using deli sliced mozz and not fresh. The biscotti was fantastic too.

    Understated Italian market, we came here to try the meatball subs and we're pretty happy. Good value for price, there's a seating area, friendly staff who brought out our order and cleared plates. Also counter to buy pastries or gelato, and in the market area you can buy noodles, sauces, pizza pans. Freezer section for take and bake foods. Easy parking out front. Would come again.

    This Italian market has been around for quite some time. It has gone through ownership changes, but still delivers on Italian bread (white), sausage, cheeses and Italian pastries and cookies. Also some pasta machines, tomato sauce, lupine beans and more.

    Capicola Panini

    Came in for the first time today and will certainly be back. Capicola panini with a bag of chips was $12, which I thought was a great price point for a sandwich of this quality. Pastries and pasta look fantastic too. Staff was friendly and efficient. Clean and comfortable seating area for enjoying your meal at the restaurant.

    Half of a reuben sandwich the rest for later! Yum!

    Once again we went to Vinnola's to pickup an order we placed for two sandwiches. Consistently for some time Vinnola's has been very good with its sandwiches. We've been there several times for them and every time they have not disappointed us. They have a very nice selection of sandwiches but both of us have our favorites. Mine is the reuben and it remains a top notch item. We ordered online and the food was ready for us upon our arrival. My spouse ordered the turkey panini which is her favorite. These are outstanding sandwiches and we always look forward to them. Vinnola's has much more than sandwiches. They have salads and cookies and lasagna and more! Inside the place looks great and has many Italian products for sale. They are all displayed for you to browse as you shop. Now my reuben was magnificent! The panini was perfect too! Naturally we scarfed them down and each comes with chips. There is a place to eat but today we picked up the order and came home. If you are in the area Vinnola's is a place you really should stop and visit. Pricing is reasonable and the odds are you won't be disappointed. I did take one photo of half of my reuben and as you can see it looks delectable!

    This will make a fun dinner

    If I need a special pasta, they have it. The market portion has a great selection of canned and dry goods. There is an entire fridge/freezer section of ready to bake pastas and sausage rolls. There is a seating area for dine-in and a menu for carry out. The dessert case is a feast for the eyes. Today I was looking for a few special pastas for upcoming dinners. They had exactly what I needed. Then of course we had to choose something from the dessert case. Bavarian Cannolis were just the thing. This is worth the stop. Highly recommend.

    I love this neighborhood gem…read more I have been coming here for years and this is my first recommendation for people new to the area. Everything is always delicious It can be a little loud, a little crowded, long line, but it's worth the wait and you don't have to wait long. I was sorry to hear that they recently had a fire. I hope they can remodel and open soon. It is a little suspicious that so many great local restaurants are experiencing fire and damage lately, I hope it's just random bad luck and nothing more nefarious.

    The "Restaurant Kid" Litmus Test: Parisi Passes with Flying Colors…read more On my first day in Denver, a childhood friend took me to lunch at Parisi, though he was admittedly a bit apprehensive. Having grown up with Italian heritage on both sides and parents who owned an Italian restaurant, I am notoriously hard to please when it comes to authentic cuisine. He was worried I'd be overcritical; instead, I was completely charmed. Located in a quaint, quiet neighborhood, Parisi offers the kind of authenticity that is rare to find. Here is why it earned a perfect score from a tough critic: The Main Course: The Tagliatelle Ragu was balanced and traditional--exactly what you want from a high-caliber kitchen. The "Woodfire" Factor: The aroma of the woodfire pizza oven hits you the moment you walk in. While we opted to eat inside rather than on the lovely patio, those scents alone convinced me that I have to return specifically for the pizza next time. The Grand Finale: I had to finish the meal with my favorite, Stracciatella gelato. It was the perfect creamy, artisanal end to a fantastic lunch. The service was seamless, the ambiance was inviting, and the food spoke for itself. If you're looking for a spot that feels like a true slice of Italy in the middle of Denver, this is it. I'll definitely be back to tackle that pizza menu!

    It had been some time since I was here. I came with my husband and son for dinner on a week night…read more There is plenty of parking available. We were welcomed in and seated. The decor is charming. Our server, Holly, brought us our requested water. My husband ordered bread and butter for the table. He chose the split plate of spaghetti and ravioli. He requested Bolognese instead of marinara. The meals came with salads and he decided to get the Italian dressing. My son chose ranch with his salad and ordered the fettuccini alfredo adding parmesan chicken on top. I chose the fettuccini and meatballs with marinara. I selected Italian dressing for my salad. The salads came on cold plates which made the veggies seem even crisper than they were. It was more than just the usual side salad with the addition of garbanzo beans. We all enjoyed the freshness. My dish was ample and tasty. The meatballs are fork and knife size. The marinara had a bright tomato flavor. Overall enjoyable and enough to bring home for lunch the next day. In fact, we all needed a container. Holly boxed everything up for us. This was a pleasant evening out.

    I love this restaurant. We used to live in the neighborhood (Applewood) and have eaten there…read morenumerous times. My favorite dish is the chicken piccata, which has been flawlessly executed time after time, for decades, and is the best I've had anywhere, including Italy. I sometimes order other entrees and have never been disappointed. The waitstaff have been there for years (I'm guessing in part due to the 20% charge that is shared among all employees, both wait staff and kitchen). I usually tip a little extra, but it isn't expected. We now live a 45-minute drive away, but we still make the trip for special occasions or business. I'm joining a friend for lunch there again next week. We'll see if I can tear myself away from the piccata and order something else this time!

My husband and I went here to celebrate his birthday and Father's Day this afternoon. We were promptly seated without a reservation at one of the table on the patio to enjoy the fresh air. We started off with an order of garlic knots and Italian /chicken lettuce wraps. We asked about the honey dipping sauce and were told it was on a spicy side, so we skipped paying the extra $2 for it. However, our waitress wanted us to try it, so the honey was on the house. And, boy, that honey dip sauce was indeed very spicy! And the wraps? It was delicious! Fresh cherry tomatoes with diced chicken breast and bean plus seasonings. We loved the dish and finished everything on the plate except for the 3 sauces. We ordered our main entrees after finishing our appetizers. I had the Linguini & Clams, while my husband ordered the Rigatoni & Sausage. What a disappointment my Linguini & Clams dish was to me. The lack of flavor from one of my favorite dishes made me sad. I was looking forward to it. Adding hot pepper flakes, then black pepper, and the worst was adding salt. If this dish were to be prepared correctly, I would have been happy to eat it all. However, I gave up after adding my own spices. The Rigatoni & Sausage dish? OMG, out of this world! The red sauce with the meat sauce smothering the pasta was one of the best dishes I've ever tasted. I'd wished I ordered that dish, but at least I was able to try a couple of bites. When the bill came, our waitress said she took off the clam dish because I didn't like it. THIS, this! is how they gained a new customer! I'll come back and will give them my business. Thank you for treating this customer right and making sure my eating experience will be different the next time I dine here.
