About this business

In 1934, Denver's most notorious family, the Smalldones opened up an eatery in the North Side to become the heart of both Italian cuisine and an illicit operation. While drawing the neighborhood's attention to their famous pasta, they also drew the attention from police as Denver's only mafia operated in the basement.

Food has lots of taste excellent you feel the taste of good olive oil and garlic. If you like italian food, this is the place to come. Good service and very reasonable prices. It was my first visit and I definitely will come again whenever I am here in Denver.

My wife and I didn't have a reservation but there was full service seating at the bar. After a 15 minute wait we had our seats. Food was timely and delicious and the staff were delightful. We can't wait to come back!

The food was OK & the band was awesome. The waitress was awful & I won't return again. She literally asked us 3 times if we were going to only order appetizer & drinks and when we said yes she totally blew us off. Another staffer brought our drinks & food, she never returned to see how it was or if we needed more to drink. We had to ask 3 times for the bill and she never thanked us for coming.
