He spends plenty of time with you selecting the perfect gift or the most delicious items to take home. Parker opened the chocolates and allowed tasting before buying. Who does that?!?! I felt like I was in a speciality food shop in NYC, but was in the heart of Cherry Creek. You can stop in Whole Foods for the staples and perishables for your dinner party or holiday celebration, then go to Ambrosian Pantry for the items that will put your entertaining over the top. So glad we have this exceptional shop in our neighborhood. Thanks for all your help, Parker!

This time we grabbed chicken legs, cheese, summer sausage, olives in addition to our top sirloin and ground beef. So we're excited and hope the new items carry the same quality. We figure they would be given most the cheese selections are from Wisconsin. As an original Wisconsinite, I beyond approve! The staff behind the deli is on top of their game. When busy, they have a ticket system and you're barely waiting long. Everyone behind the meat counter is ready to help. Space is a little tight to maneuver but very manageable. The best part is coming to the seafood section and not smelling the coast. They keep the space very tidy and clean. This is officially my new meat market for sure!

Holy sandwiches!!! I can't believe it took me this long to check out Carmine Lornard's. I brought…read moremy Italian dad and mom for sandwiches at noon for lunch. Coming from an Italian family, I am well versed in Italian sandwiches. Carmine Lornardo's the real deal! We ordered the 24" Carmine Italian. Every bite was as good as the last. My dad struck up a conversation with Carmine, who was working behind the counter as he does every day, just as his dad (according to him). We sat down at one of the 4 tables to enjoy our sandwich which was pre split for us. As we were finishing up and the lunch crowd was slowing a bit but was still steady, when Carmine stopped at our table to chat with my dad. He told us an amazing story of how their sausage and pepper sandwich was featured in Food & Wine magazine and how he found Put about it. A true Italian man living in his owned world, he was not familiar with the magazine. But that put them on the food seen. He then brought my dad his famous sausage and pepper sandwich, on the house! We came back later that week and ordered pasta with sausage and sauce for dinner which he provided as part of their dinner to go series. If I lived closer, I would never be cooking, I would just be at Carmine's for lunch and dinner! Don't sleep on this authentic Italian restaurant with old world charm.

Initial first impression was excellent. Walking straight into a meat deli before getting to order…read moreyour sandwich sets up the expectation for a serious sandwich. We were on our way up to red rock and wanted to grab some lunch for the tailgate. We ordered the French dip and the special #5 cutlet sandwich as well as Mac salad and black and white cookie. The sandwiches are expensive but big. The French dip was $13.99 and the special was $18.99 for an 8in. Our meal ended up being around $60 for two sandwiches, a Mac salad, chips and two pastries. The mac salad was very good and tasty but the sandwiches were a total disappointment. The French dip lacked ANY flavor even a bit of salt would've gone a long way. When we dipped it in the au jus, it still lacked any flavor. We ended up only taking a few bites then tossing it and moving onto the #5. Both sandwiches were incredibly soggy and we maybe ate them 20 minutes after getting them. Taste was decent with the cutlet sandwich but oh my heartburn. We both had heartburn the entire duration of the concert. Just a disappointing experience after spending so much money.

Therewas no "happy birthday", or small dessert or card- which was slightly disappointing after we spent $180 on our meal
