Always love coming here. The food is great, old school italian. I haven't had anything I didn't like. Service is great, and the music is old school 40's for a great atmosphere.

I ate at Gaetano's yesterday for the first time. I was very happy with my brunch - the Italian Skillet Breakfast. The coffee was really good, too! Great service and atmosphere!

We were looking for an Italian Restaurant in Denver and decided to go to the Highland area. We luckily found this place. When we walked in the atmosphere was fantastic with a Sinatra looking singer and a crowd who were having the time of their lives. Great experience. Seriously made our trip to Denver.
