We came to Gattara one evening before seeing a play downtown, and are very glad we stopped in - they were having a Valentine's Day special still, so for $90 offered a shared appetizer, two entrees, two desserts and two glasses of house wine. Our server was excellent and so helpful when we explained our timing, she made sure everything was quick and ran smoothly! The fettuccine Alfredo with chicken was quite good, and the salsiccia pizza was delightful. We got the bread pudding and tiramisu for dessert, and while both were good I think the bread pudding was better. Just to note, it's attached to a hotel so the bathrooms are across the lobby and require a keypad code to enter. Overall, it was a good meal and fit what we were looking for - I would be happy to go back if I was near the area. read more

Gattara - Salsiccia pizza - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I came here for the neopolitan pizzas. I read the reviews and this place seemed to have it dialed in making pizzas. The second part that made me want to go here was the actual cat theme as my daughter loves cats. I attached multiple pictures of the inside of the restaurant. The restaurant is attached to a hotel and has a very nice ambience in the lobby/bar/dining area. We decided to sit at the bar as they were apparently short staffed for the day and we were very hungry and wanted our food fast. We ordered a few drinks along with a margarita and a pepperoni pizza. The server/bartender seemed extremely busy and was working hard to make sure all the guests were happy. The hotel employee that was standing in the lobby had a lousy attitude and seemed to be almost bullying the server/bartender. For that they are not getting 5 stars. The pizzas however was absolutely amazing. The pepperoni was absolutely delicious and the crust was to die for. It made me excited to try more of what they have on the menu and I will definitely go back there shortly. I also ordered a side of garlic aioli to dip the pizza slices in and that worked out perfectly. All in all this place was great as I will definitely come back and recommend this to my friends. read more

The food here is amazing. Me and my husband stayed here recently for a staycation to get away for a few nights and I was so impressed. The food quality is so fresh and the pizza is made right in front of you like in Italy. The chef even came out and checked on us which made me so happy. You can tell that the staff and place really cares about customer service and the guests. The place has a really nice atmosphere and the bar staff was nice too. We definitely will be back soon! read more

The food was really good, service was great, and great ambiance. Will come again. For a change it turned out to be very good.

Great hotel, walking distance to downtown Denver. Nice big rooms. Really fun atmosphere in the bar and awesome bartender Brendan. Can't go wrong staying here and hanging out for a few days. read more

Omg this place is incredible! I had no idea this place was here but I feel silly to not have. The food and service was ABOVE excellent. We had the tomato burrata salad and short rib and holy crap was everything cooked to PERFECTION. Not to mention their oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwich with fresh caramel. We literally crave it randomly and have to go back just for that. Note to the staff- please advertise more because everyone NEEDS to know about this incredible place! read more

Gattara - Braised Short Rib - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Service was not great. When we ordered drinks my friends stated it was our other friend's birthday excitedly, and all we got was an "okay". She kept sniffling/snorting when she'd get close to one of us. It was gross. I ordered the bolognese. Extremely over cooked noodles. They turned into mush. I make better pasta at home. Another friend had the carbonara. Super over cooked and only took 2 bites and ended up giving it to go to give to a homeless man. MUCH better Italian restaurants in Denver. read more

The photo is self explanatory -- probably some of the best food and service we've ever had in Denver, if not ever. We got the Braised Short Rib, Butter Lettuce Salad, Steak Carpaccio Pizza, Cultivated Funghi Pizza, and Grilled Raddicchio Salad. The pizza was damn near perfect and was still good heated up the next day. Such a memorable meal, will definitely return to try everything else. read more

Gattara - Obviously too good to wait. Braised Short Rib, Butter Lettuce Salad, and Grilled Raddicchio Salad - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

COVID-19 Disclaimer: The decision to dine-in during this current pandemic is important and a very personal decision that each of us must make on our own. We must accept the risks we would be taking if we were to dine out of the home, which may be smaller or greater for different individuals. This review is just something fun to read. :) Last Sunday evening, I met Steve for an early dinner on the patio of Gattara, a relatively new Italian restaurant attached to the Warwick Hotel at the intersection of 17th and Grant. Masks were worn by all parties until we were completely seated. We sat outside on the patio, where the closest patron was about 20 feet away. Our waiter was named Sean, and he was great; he was very attentive. We had the choice of dining inside where we would have been extremely social-distanced from the closest neighboring patrons, or similarly spaced out on the patio. It was a beautiful afternoon, and late enough in the day that the sun was hidden by the tall buildings of downtown Denver, so we chose the patio. According to their website, "Gattara" is the Italian equivalent of 'cat lady', without some of the negative connotations we have in America. This type of cat lady also feed stray cats in her neighborhoodand, as an endearing quality to the community. We both ordered a signature cocktail called the Angora: Hendrick's Gin, St. Germain, white cranberry juice and fresh lemon juice. It was very cool and refreshing. The restaurant offers Neapolitan-style pizzas that range between $12 - $18, and upscale entrees $21 - $44. However, we decided to share four appetizers $6-$16. Steve took a margherita pizza "to-go" for his other half, and it received rave reviews! The French baguette burrata toast was delightful. It contained grana padano, arugula and tomato jam. Steve especially liked the confit San Marzano tomato! This bruschetta was generously topped with house-made lemon ricotta and basil on a crispy focaccia bread. The charred octopus was cooked to perfection and contained fregola, peperonata, garlic chips, radishes, and frisee. The bright red sauce under the octopus was rich and creamy. The star of the appetizer show, and most expensive, was the smoked pork cheeks with Yukon gold gnocchi! It was served with mache and giardiniera. The pork cheeks melted right into our mouths! Hotel restaurants can be very hit-or-miss. This one was a hit! Hopefully their business picks up, as it was pretty slow last Sunday evening. Reservations can be made via OpenTable. read more

Stopped in Gattara tonight while visiting a friend in the Warwick hotel. We were both incredibly impressed with the food, drinks and service from the bartender. We shared a pizza and appetizer. The prices are very reasonable for what they offer. Gattara has an extensive menu with so many options to choose from, the portions are generous and the quality was top-notch. The restaurant was much larger than I expected with wonderful classy decor, plenty of space between tables & lounge style seating areas. Just a wonderful ambiance overall for any size group or even to enjoy some time on your own. I live only 4 blocks away from this restaurant and can't believe that I never visited until tonight. Plan to be back often from now on! Thank you Gattara & your entire team read more

The pizza was great and the drink was spot on when it finally came - the wait time was a bit off putting. Also as a server/bartender I be careful about hygiene - I know you were doing your best but thankfully I was drinking alcohol or I would have had sent the drink back. Back to the Pizza - I like the new age pepperoni pizza - the heat and the combinations of some unique toppings was surprising and tasty. read more

Gattara - Gnocchi Triffolati - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Food was great, I loved having the sweet potato gnocchi and I highly recommend the burrata and prosciutto as a starter. The restrooms were located in the hotel (shares the same building) and required a code which wasn't an issue for me, but you could tell the hotel front desk was tired of people asking where the restroom was/what the code is. Our service didn't match up with the the quality of food and the chic atmosphere. Our waitress seemed annoyed by us as soon as we sat down (we had a reservation for 6:45pm and it wasn't busy). She would simply nod or just hold a blank expression and bluntly say "okay" as we ordered. When she came around again she seemed even more annoyed and had a very patronizing tone with all of us. It seemed like she was avoiding our table and would quickly drop off our drinks/food and walk away before we could say anything. It was very strange considering it seems like a high quality restaurant but the service was anything but. A 20% gratuity tip was automatically added onto the check which may have been a factor into her not trying to be friendly whatsoever. read more

Beware that their website and google info about hours and menus might be incorrect. I went to the trouble to make a lunch reservation here weeks ago. It clearly stated on their website and on OpenTable that they would be serving lunch. We arrived at 11:45 and were told that they were only serving their overpriced brunch buffet. No thanks! read more

Gattara - Me and my friends at dinner - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

The italian food I've tried outside Europe has been hit and miss but this was excellent. The server was kind and helpful and the decor was cute, and hotel guests get 15% off too with their coupon. The caprese salad was fine (I'd give it a 7 as the tomatoes were not full flavoured). Aglio olio is my favourite spaghetti dish and it was excellent (comes with a side of cheese which I wouldn't usually have on this but was good; I just added a touch more salt). The tiramisu was light and enjoyable. I didn't have a chance to come back but if i did, the Neapolitan pizzas would be on the try list. read more

After a long day of being out and about, I was feeling lazy and decided to go down to the hotel restaurant to grab some to-go grub. The restaurant has a wide selection of Italian apps, pizzas, and main entrees. Apps range from $6-16, pizzas up to $18, and entrees up to $44 for a steak. Having it to go, I decided to go with the Prosciutto Di Parma Pizza. First glance I noticed a giant pile of arugula put on top of the pizza. The other toppings were light-handed with minimal cheese and left me wanting more. Unfortunately half way through I noticed that that most of the pizza dough was undercooked. When looking at the side profile of a slice, you could see a clear gum line (the space between the top and bottom of the crust). Slices were floppy and had virtually no toasty/baked color or crunch to it. Maybe it was just an off night but overall, this was a miss for me. read more

I ordered the pappardelle short rib & got food poisoning within a matter of a few hours. It's so sad because I had this reservation for weeks and had been looking forward to trying it for months. My friends were fine after so I know it was from the short rib pasta. Honestly the gnocchi & bolognese my friends had were pretty good, but the short rib pasta wasn't even that good like it could've at least been worth being sick all night lol. The vibes were cute and the server was nice. I'm not saying don't go there just whatever you do don't get the short rib pasta. read more

Two paws up for real tasty pizza. Gattara delivers delicious appetizers and pizzas, and breaks down the "hotel restaurant" stereotype. Gattara, which means "cat lady," is a cat-themed Italian-American restaurant downtown, located next door to the Warwick Hotel. Yes, I did say "cat" themed! You can find adorable cats in artwork along the walls and even hidden elsewhere. The interior is very spacious, with high ceilings, with a calm, warm atmosphere. There's a bar and even a brunch bar with bottomless mimosas available on the weekends. Now onto the food.... the pizzas are bomb. They offer creative, wood-fired, Neopolitan-style pizzas like the carbonara and prosciutto di parma pizzas. My favorite was definitely the prosciutto di parma, although the carbonara is worth a try as well. The prosciutto di parma comes with mascarpone, pecorino romano, arugula, and cured egg yolk. I'm pretty sure I've never had pizza elsewhere with egg yolk on top, but it was incredibly delicious! They also offer gluten-free pizza crusts, which is what we got. The gluten-free crust has the perfect chewy consistency and is made with gluten-free beer. Besides the diverse selection of pizzas, they also offer fun seasonal ones. I had the opportunity to try the Thanksgiving pizza, which had cranberry orange puree, shaved acorn squash, brown sugar, mozarella, and turkey meat. Now on to the appetizers... they have some very pretty (and delicious) shareable appetizers. My favorites would include the san marzano tomato focaccia, charred octopus, and the potato strata. Besides the delicious pizzas (highly recommend that prosciutto di parma pizza!!), they have a super delectable oatmeal raisin cookie ice cream sandwich. I love ice cream (probably way too much), but this was vanilla ice cream with lavender sprinkled on top, sandwiched between two super chewy, thick cookies. Not only that, but it is served with a rich house-made caramel. Oh man, oh man, I'm craving it just by writing about it! Gattara is a definite winner and worth checking out. It's charming for cat lovers, an excellent ladies' brunch spot, and great for a date night. read more

Whew!!! It's been a crazy couple of weeks, so much so I haven't even caught up from Valentine's Day where my babe and I dined with the lovely folks Gattara. And what a lovely night!! From the incredibly friendly, attentive staff to our absolutely delicious meal and everything in between, this is an amazing restaurant and I am so glad we finally made it by. My babe dined on this perfectly cooked ribeye with ancient grains and baby squash while I could not pass up the Carbonara pizza and oh.man. Yum doesn't even begin to describe it! Pecorino Romano, farm egg (LOTS of farm eggs), and guanciale (pork cheek) made this a pizza I could not resist and it was phenomenal. I mean, look at that yolky goodness!! Gattara is a fabulous date night spot with a beautiful, welcoming restaurant. There's a large bar where we enjoyed drinks before dinner but would equally have enjoyed dinner there as well. There's just so much this restaurant has to offer and we can't wait to return! read more

We have eaten at Gattara several times, and it's always been excellent. This is actually a hidden gem, located in the Warwick hotel at the edge of downtown Denver. This is "Italian" Italian food, not "American" Italian like Maggianos or Olive Garden. Tonight we had the bruschetta flights for an appetizer and two different risottos, which we shared. Everything was delicious and the service was great. Anyone who has never been here should give this place a try! read more

Went with hubby for early dinner. We had bruschetta flight for appetizer...AMAZING!! We had risotto dishes and again fantastic! Everyone was SUPER professional and polite. Our server was knowledgeable and offered great suggestions. I highly recommend this hidden gem! We came from Colorado Springs and will come again!! read more

Visited gattara for brunch on a Sunday around 10am. The brunch menu was not available at that time which is ok given we were not interested in eating pizzas that early, the breakfast menu has the same items as the brunch except for the pizzas. The place was a bit empty so no need to worry about having a reservation. They serve a buffet breakfast which is similar to a top end hotel breakfast place. We opted to order from the menu. I went with the beef shortrib eggs Benedict and my wife went with the egg white omelette. The short ribs were tasty and I enjoyed the fries that came with it, very crunchy from the outside. The fries portion was very generous. My wife's omelette was just ok, it's a vegetable omelette after all. The portion of fruits and bread that came with the omelette was generous as well. We finished off with the vanilla French toast which was really tasty but thought the syrup could be more sweeter. Overall a good place for breakfast. Here are my ratings: Beef shortrib eggs Benedict: 8/10 Vanilla French toast: 8/10 read more

I ordered some food to go for dinner. I just wanted some appetizers and finger foods for my guests. The head chef did an amazing job in putting together an amazing cheese and meat plate. He also did a fantastic burrata plate. Which was so delicious. We also had a risotto that melted in our mouth it was savory and delicious! I would definitely recommend going to eat there and order out food any time! read more

I appreciated the Restaurant.com participation and the subtle cat theme was so cute and fun (and why we chose this restaurant in the first place). My friends shared a pizza and they thought it was absolutely delicious. I ordered the short ribs and thought it was just ok and my husband's risotto was just ok too. We went on Mothers day at dinner time and it was not crowded and the staff seemed (and one admitted) that they were really tired. Our server was not warm or friendly and our food was ready at very different times which was a little disappointing. We saw a very unhappy customer complain to our server and the response did not seem very positive or gracious but of course I don't know the real story. We ordered gelato for dessert and I'm pretty sure it's the same gelato I buy at the grocery store. The restrooms are a little far away, through the (very pretty) hotel that the restaurant is attached to and you have to ask for the code and then remember it. I don't think I will return but I wish them the best. read more

Excellent wood-fired pizza, good happy hour specials, and friendly and helpful waitstaff.

The pizzas were delicious. We had on with fig jam and the other was with olives. It was not crowded for a Friday night at 6. We were able to get in immediately. The parking was easy. It's farther away from downtown so you don't have to pay for parking. A nice experience. read more
