The Ponti at Denver Art Museum 100 West 14th Avenue, Denver, CO 80204

"We popped in for a VERY QUICK bite, so we didn't linger or take in the menu. We split the Brussels Sprouts salad and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Chefs kiss! Was hankering for a temperanillo sangria but wasn't available. Full bar but the cocktail menu itself was mostly gin based. Service was sublime and food arrived fast. Would love to.come back and have this salad again and try more from the menu. We had obligations elsewhere so we had to get in and get out."

"The menu showed promise. An eccletic mix of choices. Companion ordered the cheesy grilled cheese and it was cheesy. And salty. The greens, arugula, were salty as well. The whole meal was over salted. Forced to eat it out of the hunger. The pumpkin soup was delicious. The corned tempeh Ruben was crispy and different. The slice of bread on top was basically split in half and in two pieces. The tempeh was very different, almost uneddible. Companion agreed and described it as 'nasty.' Maybe it is an acquired taste. The service was great and beverage refills flowed. Fresh brewed iced tea was yum and strong. I do not think I will go again except maybe to try the desserts. Unfortunately, the experience was a miss, but the outdoor patio was nice. Maybe try it if you need food while at the Denver Art Museum. You might be glad you did. Possibly."

"The vegetarian options were quite bad. The ricotta gnudi had the texture of baby food and an unpleasant flavor. The chilled pea soup was distinctly unsavory. The blueberry lemonade and lavender green tea hit the spot though. I should’ve followed what the other girls beside me did and just stayed for drinks."

"Lovely sophisticated and good restaurant that was a delightful respite from much of the ordinary in Denver. The scallops were delicious and the hamburger was too. Thanks for a breath of fresh air and best of luck with the additional opening hours on other evenings."

"This is a modern-looking restaurant with a fairly limited, but vegetarian/vegan-friendly menu (there are dishes that are not listed as vegetarian or vegan, but can be made that way). The restaurant was clean, and our server, Zelda, was extremely friendly and professional. There were 7 of us, and we all enjoyed our meals (grilled cheese, burger, apple and fennel soup, fettuccine, and brussel sprouts salad) tremendously! The burger was especially excellent!"
