Wow. Spuntino truly blew me away! Service here is INCREDIBLE. The staff truly know good hospitality. Provided us with great recommendations. All of the dishes were unique, fresh, and delicious. I loved the Indian spices/flavors that came out in these traditional Italian dishes! Cappellini Aglio e Olio: 4/5 Gnocchi: 5/5 Burrata: 4.7/5 Arancini: 4.6/5 Great spot for a date night!

Have wanted to try Spuntino for a while. Went for a birthday dinner celebration. We were a party of four with various food allergies, and despite the family-style nature of the offerings, Spuntino was able to accommodate our needs, and we had a great meal. We were seated at the front by the window, which was nice. It did get a little hot in the restaurant as more people arrived, since it has been unusually warm in Denver this season. We split six plates and were stuffed by the time the celebratory dessert arrived. We started with the burrata, which paired well with apple butter and pickled apples. The arancini was a fusion of Indian spiced cauliflower with mint-cilantro yogurt raita. My favorite of the Spuntini dishes was the Granchio--jumbo lump crab served over a crispy potato cake with butternut squash and a perfect 63 ° egg. We split two Primi dishes: their special of the day pasta, and the Cappellini Aglio e Olio. The Cappellini was amazing--a perfect blend of Indian spices, breadcrumbs, and another 63 ° egg. Yum. If you love scallops, the Capesante dish is not to be missed. These were some of the sweetest, perfectly prepared scallops I have had. read more

First time for Happy Hour. I sat at the bar and was served by Victor M. The happy hour menu included their Arancini with one risotto ball for $4. The regular order is 3 balls. The regular menu is available. I started with their house Negroni with a jelly bear. Regular price is $16, HH for $12. I got their Insalata ($16) with Rebel Farms greens, Rancho Gordo white lima beans, rolled pork lonza & dill vinaigrette topped with shaved parmesan. The special happy hour sandwich was the Porchetta Sando for $8. Basically a slider. It was so good, I had another. I paired the food with a glass of Spanish Golban Crianza ($7.50!!). A full bodied red wine for porchetta. I decided to treat myself with the Amaro cheesecake and a pour of Lucano Anniversarie, $12 each. Nice cheesecake with chocolate slab on top. The Amaro was not bitter. Including tax & 20% tip, it came to $105. The food was not rushed. The restaurant steadily filled up by 630pm. read more

Spuntino has intriguing combinations of ingredients and flavors that you can't imagine work together, until you taste them and are pleasantly surprised! The menu is so unique it's difficult to know what to order. We tried 3 different entrees and 2 starters and all had great flavor. The lasagna was remarkable with the layers and presentation. If you are a fan of savory desserts, definitely give the olive oil sorbet a try! The service was fantastic and friendly too. read more

This place is perfect for a date night. Great ambience, food was spectacular and drink menu was . Started off with delicious cocktails, an heirloom tomato salad and the focaccia e ricotta..it was so fluffy and delicious. I've never had anything like it if I'm honest. My husband and I shared the Agnello (lamb) it was very delicious. I wish we were hungry enough to also have ravioli but if I wanna keep my waist line, we can't do that so instead we split some pistachio gelato and an espresso martini and it was the perfect way to finish off the night. service was impeccable. I would definitely come back here again. Wish I lived closer. read more

I've been to Spuntino several times now and have never once been disappointed. We typically get the burrata or focaccia, and last night we had both! Of course, the bread was salty and fresh and the cheeses were spectacular. Their focaccia is my favorite - the olive oil and garlic cloves are a perfect dining experience. Their pasta of the day was my favorite - carbonara! Their pasta is cooked beautifully as usual, and everyone's dish was better than expected. The cocktails were strong but flavorful. I got a sour and was pleasantly surprised. It was very summery and refreshing but packed a punch. We ended the night with the crème brûlée, which was AMAZING! A great size for the price. We also had affogatos, which were with their chocolate salted caramel gelato. I think this flavor may be limited and I cannot recommend it enough. While I may not live in Denver anymore, I always look fondly to spuntino when I'm in town. read more

Spuntino is working on its 15th year, but it is a bit out of the way for me and I had not been back for a long time. My friend had never been, so we decided it was time to give it a try. Note that although Spuntino was originally developed by noted chef John Broening as an Italian Restaurant, the current chef/owner (since September 2014), Cindhura Reddy, is of Indian descent and has gradually added more Indian flavors to the offerings. You might consider this Italian-Indian fusion. Only in America! The space seems very narrow with a large bar on the right and a line of tables along a banquette on the left. There's a more expansive room way in the back plus a steep staircase leading to the basement restrooms--not handicap accessible. The design is rustic and comfortable, but it's starting to look a little dated to me. A bit of a refresh might be in order. The Lower Highlands neighborhood is extremely crowded and parking is a huge problem. The restaurant has its own parking lot with about a dozen spaces. I was lucky enough to snag the last one at 5:15 p.m. on a Saturday. Our server, Lindsey, was patient, knowledgeable, charming, and extremely efficient. Everything was perfectly timed, glasses were always full, and plates were cleared immediately. She was really terrific. I'm a huge arancini fan and almost always order it when I have the option. This version was one of the best. Confit artichokes were new to me, but the combination with mascarpone, pine nuts, and Pecorino really hit the spot with the flavorful and slightly spicy marinara. Alas, no photo. The dish was so appealing that we gobbled it up before I could grab my phone. There's a fairly extensive and eclectic but well-chosen wine list with impressive by-the-glass offerings. I chose a very enjoyable Barolo. The cocktail list is also interesting. My friend had his usual Negroni and pronounced it very well-executed. I then had the Agnello, braised lamb osso bucco with saffron basmati rice, broccolini, cilantro, and red onion. The lamb was extraordinarily tender with a wonderful, rich sauce. The South Indian flavors were a perfect combination. The portion was huge, even considering the large bones. I had a heavy box of yummy leftovers. My friend went for the Pesce, Colorado striped bass with m'hamsa couscous (a traditional Berber version from Tunisia), romesco sauce, spring onions, and toasted almonds. He enjoyed it and thought the flavors were great. We had a very pleasant evening and we're still talking about it several days later. Spuntino is a unique experience provided by a very talented and creative chef. It is definitely worth a try. read more

I've waited for years to come to Spuntino and finally came with friends for a birthday. Came on the weekday with a reservation and it seemed not super busy but lots of couples. Slightly dirty martini was delicious, cripsy and tasty. I was happy from the get go. We tried the Salumi e Formaggi which was great. So many options with cheese, meats, all were good and the portion size for four was great. The burata was amazing and the pesto on the size I'd buy from Spuntino... so amazing. Opted for the Fazzoletti which was good. Honestly couldn't really see a lot of meat but the pasta/ sauce made up for it. The portion size was on the smaller size but great with room for desert. The zeppole with peaches.. wow! Server was great as well. Didn't catch his name but he was attentive but also gave us space which I appreciated. read more

I'm not sure why it has taken a month to write this review because we had a wonderful dinner with the best service. In this quaint neighborhood eatery. All the food was delicious and very well priced. We started with the antipasto that had a small issue when we brought it to the attention of the restaurant it was immediately corrected and taken off the bill which was not even necessary but it showed how important guest satisfaction is to them. We also had the arancini as a starter agin delicious. We had a second course of Fazzoletti. Our mains consisted of Granchio and Raviolini both Italian pasta masterpieces. Out tummies where too full for dessert but we did try a complementary limoncello. To sum it all up... great food great service in a lovely neighborhood restaurant read more

Wow! How did I just find this gem? The happy hour menu was good from meatballs to a sandwich but the sweet potato gnocchi from the main was out of this world. My husband all but licked the plate clean. The other standout was the bread and cocktails. They do have an extensive wine list but I wasn't feeling a glass of wine so I opted for a cocktail. I was informed that the menu does change based on what is in season. I can't wait to go back in a different season and try a few more fish as well as some wine. read more

How embarrassing. My last review of Spuntino was over 13 years ago. Talk about being a failure of a Yelp contributor. I think I must have been there half dozen times since and have not updated my ancient review on any of those occasions. Bad me. So here's the low down...Spuntino (still)rocks. Went in with friends for a light late bite after doing some drinking and tapas-ing at the semi-new Populus rooftop bar, so kept it simple. Split a salad and an entree (lamb ragu pasta which was delicious) with my honey and tried out a Monday night 25%-off deal on an excellent bottle of Barolo. Had a bite of a friend's granchio and it was incredibly wonderful. Filled with what tasted like fresh blue crab on a perfect potato cake with fresh greens it was truly a special treat. Get it when you go. Finished up with their spectacular esspresso dark chocolate torte and it couldn't have been better. That was all the more true because BB was our server and he was funny and offered perfect service. We closed the place down at around 10:30 pm but they were really nice and didn't rush us at all. Bottom line is that you should hit them up asap. Sign me, David "Granchio-obsessed" M read more

What a great experience. I was in town for work and Spuntino came highly recommended and I can see why. I sat at the bar, but that may have been better than a table.

Came here for friends last night & was thoroughly impressed! It had been a few years since I'd paid this place a visit, and I am so happy it's still part of the Denver food scene. I'd call this one an oldie, but goodie, and they keep innovating and doing amazing things to keep the food interesting! Let's start with the service & ambiance: our server was so helpful, animated, and really gave glowing recommendations for so much of the menu! He really helped steer our menu choices in the right direction & got us started off to a great night. Then onto drinks! I started with what is probably the best mocktail I've ever had! I forget the name, but it basically tasted like a sweetened/blended limoncello popsicle with a touch of mint. I could have drank several of these easily, and let me tell you... this would be dangerous with some liquor thrown in! My friends and I then split a couple appetizers and pastas. We got the arancini & the burrata to start. The burrata was the highlight of my meal. The combination of the pesto & the cured/dried beef on bread/burrata was to die for. The arancini were great as well, but the burrata was just what I was in the mood for. For pastas, we split the gnocchetti & the special, which was like a ham & bean soup in pasta form. Both were savory & comforting, and really hit the spot. For dessert, we split the espresso flourless chocolate torte, which came with salted caramel gelato - suchhhh a good combo & great end to the meal. Please consider this place when you're in the mood for good Italian food - you won't be disappointed!! read more

This place was such an awesome find! It's in a house so it feels more cozy, which goes well with the dim light. Our server was really kind, even bringing us arancini that was made in excess to commemorate our "girls night" in Denver. The arancini was perfectly crispy on the outside but light and then creamy on the inside with a savory tomato sauce. We also got the focaccia with ricotta and roasted garlic. The combo of the roasted garlic and ricotta with bread was incredible. The tomato appetizer was fresh and tasty, with a base of labneh, layered sliced tomatoes and then topped with basil and balsamic glaze. Excellent. We then tried a few pasta entries -- my favorite being the Indian-Italian fusion of cavapetti noodles with an Indian tomato sauce, cashews and coconut with chicken. They have many veg friendly options, which worked well for my company. We got one option with thick noodles and lemon sauce, which was okay, and then a layered pasta option which was intricate and tasty. The spritz was refreshing to drink. We finished the night (stuffed to the gills but happy) with the gelato trio -- Thai tea, olive oil and pistachio. My favorite was the Thai tea -- tasted very authentic and was the perfect taste! This is a fantastic authentic Indian-Italian fusion restaurant with yummy homemade pastas, with an option for everyone! read more

Our chef son is very finicky and hates most Italian food, BUT he loved this joint. We came in without reservations and were seated quickly next to the side window. The space is nicely laid out and decor is tasteful and minimal. We ordered the Arancini, Focaccia e Ricotta to start. Both were delicious and packed with flavor. Next was the Capellini Aglio e Olio....amazing! The Mezzalune were delicate and subtlety spicy. The wine and spirits selection are eclectic and vast. I opted for a wonderful glass of Tuscan Sangiovese. Desserts were a pumpkin zeppole and a scope each of (don't freak out) olive oil and oreo Gelato. All of which were delicious! We'll definitely be back! read more

What a phenomenal start to my 2024 food journey. We came here to celebrate my good friends 40th birthday and it was nothing short of amazing. Starting with our waiter, he provided one of the best services I've experienced in a very long time. He was well versed in all the cuisine and drinks. He had solid recommendations and was so pleasant to be around, I wanted to invite him to have a seat at our table. The restaurant is dimmly lit for the perfect romantic setting. Noise level is definitely moderate. We ended up ordering quite a few items. However, the highlights of the meal were the elk tartare, the truffle main course( special of the day) and the Gelato. I think I would pass on the donuts next time though. Otherwise, anything you order here will satisfy your taste buds. Five stars all around. read more

This place was delicious and reasonably priced imo! My friend and I ordered two entrees to split, an app, a dessert, and two drinks each, and it was ~$85 w tip. We started with the arancini, which is unlike any other arancini I've had. It want served in a red sauce, but a white sauce, with hatch green chilis inside. I thought it was phenomenal. We also LOVED the ragu pappardelle and were very pleased that it was a permanent fixture on the menu. Very fresh and tasty. The pasta special, which was their twist on a cacio e peppe with shaved truffles, didn't blow us away. I found the sauce a bit lacking and flour-tasting. Probably would try something else instead. Oh, and don't skimp out on the gelato - for $3/scoop, you have to try the cookies and cream! The service was fantastic and loved the ambiance. Will be back! read more

Best food of my trip to Colorado. Good amount of tables inside, but I highly recommend making reservations. Bar tables had happy hours, which is first come, first service. Our server John was very informative and super helpful. He answered all our questions and guided us, making great decisions. He was very friendly and enjoyed our conversations with him. He also offered us free Olive Gelato for us to taste this flavor. The bourbantor cocktail and mocktail - 5/5 - refreshingly goood Foccasia bread with the garlic head - 4/5 - it had good taste with ricotta cheese Malai kofta gnocchi- 4.5/5 - mimic the kofta curry and unique take on the food Giardino- 4/5 - I love the chickpea part, but the rest need more seasoning for my taste. Torta - 5/5 - last day of this seasonal dessert and glad v ordered it. Strawberry gelato was the best part. I could eat 6 of it with the lime curd. Pistachio gelato - 5/5 - With strong flavor of pistachio which I enjoyed Olive Gelato - 3.5/5 - good taste but not for me read more

This is SUCH a delicious restaurant and such a unique concept. The owners are a married couple, with one who has roots in Italy, while the other has roots in India. Therefore, Spuntino is an Italian restaurant with a deliciously Indian twist! The portions here are small, so they are best for sharing family style with your table, so that you can all try and sample more of the menu together! Truly every dish we ordered was so delicious, and we definitely gravitated to the ones that had that Indian twist in them in particular, and it was all done so well and just completely balanced with the Italian of it all as well! My friend, who is Indian American, made the great observation that various different kinds of Indian cuisine and ingredients were used - from both North and South Indian cuisine! We had made a reservation, which is definitely what I would recommend that you do when you come here, especially on weekend evenings. Things were super busy here and when we showed up, the table that was reserved for us still had the previous party there, overstaying their welcome long after they had paid the bill. Because of this, we ended up waiting an additional 20-30 minutes. They took our drink orders as we waited and we sipped on them in the foyer. Finally when they seated us, they sent over a complimentary appetizer and took care of the first round of our drinks as well, which was all very much appreciated and made up for the wait instantly! Drinks were great and so unique as well! They had delightful mocktail options that I sincerely enjoyed! Now let's get onto the star of the show...the food! We started with the focaccia e ricotta, the complimentary appetizer they sent out which was SO divine! The head of roasted garlic was the star of the show here and really made the bread + cheese combo so much more enhanced! Then we also got the arancini, which is such a classic Italian dish and one of my favorites! This was also had a South Indian twist, which meant that in addition to risotto balls, there were South Indian spiced cauliflower, mint-cilantro yogurt raita, and pickled red onion. It all worked together SO beautifully! For our primi, which were pasta dishes, we got both the lasagna as it boasted being 36 layers (!!!) and the malai kofta gnocchi! The lasagna, another classic Italian dish and one of my favorites, was made so well and I can confirm it was actually 36 layers - I counted! The gnocchi was also so delicious and I sincerely loved the Indian twist on this one as well, with toasted cashews, Indian spiced tomato sauce, cilantro and red onion. It made the dense ricotta-potato dumplings feel a lot lighter and just once again complemented the Italian aspects of it so well! For our secondi, we ordered the house special for the night and I'm kicking myself because I don't remember the name of it, but it was so good!! You'll see it in the pictures, it was absolutely divine! Everything we had here was so delicious and I would recommend everyone come here, whether your visiting or just plain live in Denver! This place is perfect for special occasions and date nights, it has some serious mood lighting, gorgeously decorated, lively vibes, and an open kitchen concept with really awesome bar seating as well! You can't go wrong with Spuntino! read more

Cute spot! We were here for a special occasion and our server was fantastic, treating us to some complementary bubbly and chocolate truffles (the truffles are top 10 things I've ever eaten)! We went with the insalata and Arancini for starters and the capellini and scallops for mains. The insalata was super salty and a disappointment. We loved the Arancini, the cilantro lime crema was so tasty and unique! As for the mains, the capellini was a fun mix of flavors and the scallops were cooked well, but didn't love the sides the scallops came with. Overall everything was tasty and flavorful, but perhaps all a bit salty. The mains were both really rich -- we didn't expect to leave nearly that full. Service was good for the most part, but it did take quite a while to get the scallops. The interior is nicely decorated and has a small, intimate feel. A bit loud. Not sure if it's where we were seated, but we both found the interior to be a bit stuffy and found ourselves feeling a bit stuffed up by mid-way through the meal. We took the chocolate truffles to go, and had we known how good they were, we totally would have gotten several more! Soooo good, if you like chocolate, you gotta get some!! read more

Food: Ordered the Focaccia e Ricotta, Capellini Aglio e Olio. and Capesante. The focaccia was delicious but overpriced for the size (not uncommon I suppose). But sadly the pasta and the scallops were just not my style at all. The server did a good job of describing them so I wasn't necessarily surprised but man I did NOT like the flavor profile at all. The Capellini Aglio e Olio was basically spaghetti like noodles (homemade!) with olive oil, egg, and Indian spices. And while I love Indian food, I do not want it in my Italian food. I applaud their risks but I really just didn't want that flavor in my Italian food. Call me traditional. To each their own. The Capesante was scallops with "wheat berries" that tasted identical to dense couscous. The scallops were truly cooked to perfection but again, the flavor was just not my style. Too many things going on. The cocktails we got were yummy but filled to half the martini glass. Which was already small. A bit disappointing to be honest. The place is super cute inside. Please note that the bar is not open seating but they do call aheads. There is also only street parking so be prepared. The service was good though at the bar :) -- update: I think the biggest thing that confused me is Google says it's just an Italian restaurant. Yelp has it correctly that it's Italian, Indian. Very different! read more

We have not been to Spuntino for some time (we live pretty far south now) It's always been one of our favorite spots. Frankly we were a little disappointed. both the fettuccini and the gnocchetti were undercooked. Before you give me the al dente spiel, I know Italian food and know what al dente is. Both could have used about another 2 minutes of cook time. The Carbonara sauce was downright watery. No creaminess to the sauce, it appeared the pasta might not have been drained well before adding it to the pan. The upside is that the gnocchetti's sauce was delicious. As was our appetizer. This is a beautiful little spot, and the service is always top notch. read more

We were looking forward to returning after several amazing meals at Spuntino but unfortunately was very disappointed this time around. The salad was so small and had a huge amounts of blue cheese-Not very appetizing. We ordered the Capellini Aglio and daily pasta special (a seafood pasta). The capellini we've had in the past was delicious, but this time around it was so spicy, almost inedible. The seafood pasta while very good was again very small, and just ok The service started out great but by the end -we sat for nearly 30 minutes after finishing our entrees for plates to be cleared; so we just asked for the check without getting dessert. read more

New fav Italian place in Denver!! Service and food both top notch. I loved the Arancini and burrata here - the burrata was so silky soft I love it! For mains we got the lamb shank, aglio e olio with South Indian spices which was a nice twist- my mom loved this, and pasta of the day, carbonara I believe - I am a fan. Literally everything we tried here was so tasty! Our drinks were so good too! They have a nice menu for cocktails They do have a rotating menu that changes every three months and so I definitely want to be back to try other things they plan to have on their menu. Our server was lovely! Recommend this cozy restaurant for your next Italian meal :) read more

This was our second time visiting Spuntino, and I am heartbroken at how bad the food was. It was like a different restaurant from the first time we visited about a year ago. We ordered a host of things: the focaccia with ricotta and garlic ($13), the tomato salad ($14), the elk 'crudo' (it was really tartare style) (~$20), the peach and ricotta agnolotti (~$30) and the aglio e olio (~$32). Right off the bat, the prices seem a little bit outrageous. $13 for a tiny piece of focaccia, spoonful of ricotta and half a head of garlic? $14 for a plate of tomatoes (no lettuce). And over $30 for each pasta entree, neither of which had meat (other than a few small pieces of pancetta on the agnolotti). However, if the dishes had knocked our socks off, we wouldn't have been so dismayed by the prices. Unfortunately, nothing was great, and a few of the things were just BAD. The elk crudo was so not good we could barely finish half of it. It had weird flavor and spices, and typically my husband and I love any carpaccio or tartare. It was just bad. The giant plate of tomatoes was just that - so bizarre it was listed as a salad, again the two of us could barely finish half the plate. It was fine, but $14 for a plate of sliced tomatoes? We were holding out hope that our pastas would save the day. But unfortunately, they were just as bad, if not worse than the rest of the meal. Both dishes came sitting in a puddle of oil. It seemed like it was a mistake. The agnolotti was undercooked and the filling was watery, when you took a bite all of the filling just squirted right out. There were maybe 8 total pieces of agnolotti and this dish was $30. My husband's Aglio e Olio was also not good, he was choking it down. The best part of the meal was probably the focaccia, which still unremarkable, and the bottle of wine our server recommended. We spent $240 including tax and tip which was a hard pill to swallow for a dinner we did not enjoy. So so unfortunate. I'm not sure if management or the chef changed since I went a year ago but I really hope they can improve as it's a neighborhood spot and I'd hate to not have it as an option moving forward. read more

Omg this place. I feel ashamed it took me so long to go. It's super quaint, and the service was great. We started with the focaccia and garlic situation. That was amazing. We also go the alce crudo which was super interesting and tasty! We got a pasta, and now I can't remember which one, but we inhaled it. We also got the salmon, which was the only let down. I knew that the menu had some Indian influence and so I was hoping it would come through in the salmon, but it sadly didn't. It was an ok salmon dish. We got pistachio and olive oil gelato (that olive oil was soooo good!) and the seasonal sorbet which I think was apple? Super good. Overall, everything was amazing. read more

What a great find! Indian Italian fusion make an amazing combination! The restaurant is small so make a reservation! The staff is amazing and well knowledge of the menu. The bartenders are attentive and everyone is very personable which says a lot of how things are run here. They make you feel at home and welcome. The food is amazing and one of our favorite spots in Denver. The Granchio was amazing! One of the best appetizers I have eaten in a while. The crab salad was filled with amazing flavors and spices. If I remember correctly the star anise or maybe basil flavor was perfect and was a great twist. The potato cake at the bottom added great texture as it was very crispy. Generous topping of crab for this price was great. You get a nice mix of textures and temperatures with this dish and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! The capellini was another hit. A great twist on aglio e olio. Heavy on the Indian spices and boy that egg was delightful! The pasta del Giorno of the night was a mushroom sauced based sauce with handkerchief shaped pasta. All pasta was handmade and fresh and that sauce was amazing! I had to take it home since the appetizer was pretty filling, but it tasted great the next day! We will definitely be frequent flyers here, we had an amazing time! read more

Spuntino is aggressively mid. The prices for each dish reflect a finer establishment but the food is average at best. If you like a place with a nice ambiance and decor than Spuntino is for you, if you are looking for a $30 pasta to blow you away, then I would recommend you try elsewhere. Of the few dishes we tried I would not recommend any of my friends or family go out of their way to try them. Our waitress was great and extremely patient with some older guests with us. This is why I am giving Spuntino 3 stars. read more
