Reviews of RARE Italian
"I recently had the pleasure of dining at RARE Italian in Fort Collins, and I can confidently say that it was an exceptional culinary experience that deserves nothing less than a 5-star rating. From the moment I stepped into the restaurant, the warm and inviting ambiance set the stage for an unforgettable evening. Let's start with the appetizers, particularly the shrimp bruschetta. The combination of plump, succulent shrimp perfectly seasoned and nestled atop crispy, golden-brown slices of artisanal bread was nothing short of divine. The freshness of the ingredients shone through, creating a burst of flavors with each bite. Moving on to the main course, Polpette Tajarin (beef and pork meatballs, finely cut noodles, arrabbiata sauce, parmesan, and fried basil) took center stage and stole my heart. The meatballs were a testament to the chef's expertise, achieving that delicate balance of being tender yet maintaining a satisfying bite. Paired with the rich arrabbiata sauce, it created a harmony of spicy and savory notes that danced on my palate. The portion size was generous, ensuring that every bite was a journey into Italian culinary bliss. What truly sets RARE Italian apart is the attention to detail in both presentation and flavor. The chef's commitment to using high-quality, fresh ingredients was evident in every dish, making the dining experience not just a meal but a celebration of the artistry of Italian cuisine. The staff at RARE Italian deserves commendation as well. The service was impeccable, with attentive and knowledgeable staff enhancing the overall dining experience. They were more than happy to provide recommendations and answer any questions about the menu, further showcasing the restaurant's commitment to customer satisfaction. In addition to the outstanding food and service, the atmosphere at RARE Italian is perfect for a romantic date night, a family celebration, or any occasion that calls for a touch of elegance. The decor is tasteful, creating a sophisticated yet comfortable setting that complements the exquisite flavors of the dishes. In conclusion, RARE Italian in Fort Collins is a gem that should not be missed by any food enthusiast. The shrimp bruschetta and meatball arrabiata are just a glimpse into the culinary excellence this restaurant has to offer. Prepare yourself for a gastronomic journey that transcends the ordinary – RARE Italian is a true culinary haven in Fort Collins!"
"Had a fantastic dinner with friends here, great atmosphere, the steaks were incredible, the pasta was amazing and the wine was the perfect pairing (and 50% off on Sundays!). Our server and food was excellent (which is what matters most), the service for anything else was a little shy of excellent. Our appetizer came with 3 pieces of bread for a table of 4 adults, we asked for additional bread and it took 15 minutes and when our food was boxed up they didn’t include the extra butter nor the vegetables. Otherwise, excellent restaurant and would definitely eat here again!"
"Went to Rare to celebrate 4 birthdays. The ambiance was great, our server did a fantastic job! Everyone ordered something different off the menu which was great, I got to try them all, only because mine was not right. I was disappointed in my meal, the ravioli, because they used too much flour in the pasta dough so they didn’t cook properly and it was a bit like gnawing on raw flour. The filling and the sauce were fantastic tho. The fish, the meatballs, the ragu, the lasagna and the linguine was all good. The meatballs were however a bit too salty. I absolutely love pistachio so I tried the sorbet, it was a bit dried out like it’s been sitting in the freezer for awhile and was only meh. I gave up at that point."
