"Great experience and food. Service: great host and servers. Very organized and everyone knew their stuff. Food: Had the chefs combo, calamari and Shrimp Fra Diavolo. The chefs combo and calamari was a great appetizer for everyone to share. The shrimp far diavolo hit the spot for the entry."

"Very large Italian restaurant located in the basement (upon entering the front door, you walk down some steps where all the tables are). Highly recommend the salmon that came with butternut squash risotto. My friend ordered the chicken parm which had two giant pieces of chicken, big enough to be shared between two adults. Ricotta and burrata were both very good and came with bread slices."

"Absolutely amazing! I could not recommend Osteria Marco more. Lunch was really really high quality. The beet salad was phenomenal! I had the bolognese and it was great."

"What to say, what to say, what to say!? Well, the staff were wonderful… Came back and checked often. Helped me rearrange my reservation. Food and drinks were absolutely incredible. We dined downstairs and even got a free dessert for our birthday celebration. A little on the pricey side, but that is be expected for downtown Denver, lol. Thoroughly enjoyed it and can’t wait to come back again."
