   We had high expectations based on the great reviews, but were very disappointed with our experience. The halibut was the worst piece of fish I’ve ever had at any restaurant. It was way overcooked, extremely dry, and under seasoned on top of it. The Tajarin I got as a replacement was a littler better, but was also under seasoned. My wife’s risotto was also mediocre. The brussels sprouts salad I had as an appetizer was the highlight of the meal—it was more along the lines of what we expected given the reviews and accolades. Overall quite a disappointment. Maybe there was a substitute chef who didn’t know what they were doing or something, or the kitchen staff was having a really bad day, but based on our experience this time, this restaurant is way overrated and I would not recommend.

   We took friends to Barolo Grill who had never been there before. They were blown out of the water. The service was tops, and we all loved our salads and entrées.

   We came here for our wedding anniversary and it was excellent! The service was amazing and the food was too. We will remember this anniversary dinner as a very good time!

   I’m not sure there’s a better restaurant in the region. Alex is one of the best servers in town. This is just an amazing place to spend time and money. The experience can’t be beat.

   This was our first visit. It was amazing. We couldn’t decide what to eat so we asked Dani (our fabulous server) if she can do the wine pairing menu and be our tour guide for the evening. She loved the idea and four courses later we were not disappointed! The food and wine was incredible. My son and I sampled each others food and wine so we actually had 8 courses and 8 wine tastings! What an evening. The next time I am back in Denver I will 100% guaranteed return! Thanks Dani for a great evening.

   I hadn't been to Barolo Grill in 20+ years. My first and only time there prior to this was not a good experience. We were in the room farthest away from the main dining room, and it was as if we were invisible to our server. Our dinner took forever because he rarely came to the table. My experience this past Saturday was far from that. We had an amazing server. The food was fantastic, but service can make or break a meal, like it had done in the past. This server was amazing. We were, however, a little shocked when we each purchased a $17 cocktail, and the small glass wasn't even half full. There was a huge ice cube in the middle of the glass which helped push the level of liquid up to barely half full. You have to be prepared that Barolo isn't cheap. This place was packed with a vibrant crowd. It's like people kept pouring through the door. I love to see this and am very happy that a restaurant of this caliber can stay in business 30+ years. What a feat!

   Thank you so much for your kind words Leigh Anne! We appreciate you! Thank you for your feedback on the drink size. I will evaluate that. There is 3 ounces of booze in it though, we want people to be able to walk on the way out!
