    Wow. Sorry the photo is after the fact. We were looking on Yelp to find some Italian food, this was the 2nd closest option, the next option was in Denver, but we are so happy we chose Bistro Del Lago, the food was awesome, especially the bread and oils and the service was great. So happy we came here.

    Grilled bread w cheese and herbs and oil (the garlic bread) was yummy

    Good service. LARGE portions (beware) and good food. The bread is baked on site and the pasta is imported from Italy.

    This is the type of hidden gem that I love to find for an exquisite and relaxing meal. Take your time, order a bottle of wine and pace yourself. The food was outstanding, the service felt homey and inviting. We started with the crostini and oil, had the whipped ricotta appetizer, shared a grilled Caesar salad with chicken, and each got a pasta dish with a side of meatballs for the table. Everything was excellent. Paired with a nice bottle of Montepulciano for a really reasonable price. They also do brunch on the weekend. Will definitely be making a trip back up for that! It was like a 30 min drive from Denver. Easy peasy.

    Welcome

    I believe they used to make their own pasta as stated on website but that's not the case anymore, too bad because we used to enjoy.

    My wife and I found Ignazio's from a Google search while on a desperate weekend hunt for cheese…read moreravioli. Despite living less than ten minutes from Ignazio's, this was our first visit, but it definitely won't be our last. The owner, Nancy, greeted us warmly when we entered, provided exceptional table service, and made our time at Ignazio's more than just an excellent meal but a memorable experience. First, the food. The reviews are accurate. Ignazio's has EXCELLENT pasta. My wife chose the cheese ravioli, and I ordered the bolognaise. Both exceeded our expectations. The cheese ravioli was delectate, not over-seasoned, and served in a delicious marina sauce. Ravioli tends to get rubbery when the pasta is rolled to thick, or tears or breaks down if rolled too thin. These ravioli were ion the "goldilocks zone" of thick enough to hold their body, but delicate enough to be easily severed with the side of a fork. The flavor was a well-balanced mix of cheese, herbs, and tomato acidity. Simply delicious. My bolognaise with penne pasta had the perfect mix of veggies, including fresh peas that hadn't been cooked to mush. The best thing about bolognaise is the pleasing mixture of textures it includes when done correctly. Ignazio's was flavorful, contained delicious and properly-cooked veggies, and had a perfectly-sized dollop of ricotta on top. The ricotta is a genius touch - another contrast of texture along it a temperature contrast. I ate the entire bowl full. We visited over the Spring Break weekend, which made for less-than-full restaurant, which according to the owner, Nancy, is unusual for a weekend evening. She recommended reservations on the weekend as they're typically full-up for the weekend dinner rush. Nancy spent real time at our table, answered questions, provided guidance on the menu, and genuinely made us feel seen and appreciated. Excellent food coupled with excellent service = a restaurant we will absolutely return to in the near future. I've only tried two dishes, but would already place Ignazio's as the best Italian restaurant in Lakewood. It reminds me of the small mom-and-pop Italian places I miss from Chicago that provide excellent food at reasonable prices, served with real hospitality. Ignazio's is a gem.

    If you're looking for legit Italian sandwiches in the Denver area, Ignazio's Kitchen absolutely…read moredelivers. I've actually been here a handful of times before, but always stuck to the pizza and pasta (which are great). I honestly can't believe I overlooked the sandwiches for this long. I went with the chicken parm sandwich and it was outstanding--crispy, perfectly breaded chicken, rich marinara, and just the right amount of melted cheese on fresh bread that holds everything together without getting soggy. Easily one of the best chicken parms I've had around here. I reluctantly traded half for the sausage and peppers sandwich, and honestly... it was just as good. The sausage had great flavor and snap, the peppers were cooked perfectly, and everything tasted fresh and well-balanced. It's rare you order two different sandwiches and can't decide which one you liked more, but that was the case here. One of the sneaky best deals: you can add a cup of soup for just $2. I tried the rustic sausage and potato soup and it was excellent--hearty, flavorful, and felt homemade in the best way. What stood out beyond the food is how consistent everything felt with what others say: high-quality ingredients, generous portions, and that authentic, no-frills Italian deli vibe. You can tell they care about doing simple things really well.

The tables are thoughtfully spaced around the restaurant, and while quiet when we arrived, slowly filled in (but didn't feel crowded). We decided to start with the two appetizer specials - the arinchini, and the ravioli, both of which were good (of the two, the ravioli was more of a standout dish, with more flavors in it). For a main course, I had the duck. I'm not sure I would order it again. The first piece I cut into, I had a hard time cutting, thinking there may be a bone, I realized it was just overcooked/tough. The bites that I had that were cooked properly, were very tasty. The yellow dollops of sauce on the plate were saffron flavored, and added an interesting dynamic/flavor to the duck. The winter vegetables were good, and it notes a cauliflower purée on the menu, but tasted a bit more like parsnip purée (either way, good depth of flavor, very tasty). The duck itself was also a bit on the salty side. The overall presentation of the dish was thoughtful, and looked beautiful. Others at the table ordered the scallops (great dish, served in a fun bowl), and the elk loin, which looked like it was cooked perfectly (medium rare/nice red center). We also had dirty martinis, with blue cheese olives, that were delicious. Overall, good meal, but the duck was a bit disappointing. I would for sure order something else.

    We wanted to love it. Unfortunately it fell short…read more Sometimes there are just those nights when multiple things go wrong. We were the needy table tonight. The location is pretty, but the noise level was crazy loud. There was a particularly noisy table with guys shouting and the rest of the restaurant had to yell to be heard. We had to shout our order to the staff just to be heard. The tables are wobbly--noticed several with plastic shims to help balance, and no, they don't take care of it before you sit down. We asked and the guy nearly tipped over our drinks on us. Started with our drinks. Ordered some specialty drinks and they left the Sprite out of what we ordered. They brought a carafe of Sprite and they had run out of syrup so it was club soda. They remade the drinks and all was well. Burrata appetizer was trying too hard. Too much going on with flavors. It was just okay. Lamb ragu was cooked well, but lacked flavor. Mussels, hopefully, won't get me sick. I had a bad batch and one mussel that was so bad that I had to spit it out and it soured my appetite so much so that I didn't order anything as a replacement. Paella special was over cooked. And the pasta primavera tasted like a curry. The best item of the night was the beet salad. When we got our check, it was crazy expensive for four people. $250! And that was with only one alcoholic drink! They also didn't take my mussels off the tab, which we had to point out and they corrected right away. Also didn't help that we could visually see our server complaining to the other servers about us. We were absolutely polite and kind to everyone helping and still left a nice tip because we've both worked in restaurants. It's a pretty location with overpriced food that isn't that tasty and a server who doesn't understand that when things get messed up, it's the restaurants job to remedy it--especially for the price that customers have to pay! Ridiculous.
