    Every visit to Coperta is a great visit. The staff are so kind, the food is incredible, the drinks are thoughtfully made (cocktails/mocktails) and curated (wine options – incredible). This time I brought a friend from out of town and we had the best time. Even though Chef Jodi is rockin' and rollin' at her new brick and mortar, there are still great dolci options. We opted for the brownie and WOW, delicious. Highly recommend!!

    5-Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Quality Italian in Cherry Creek is a culinary masterpiece that exceeds all expectations! From the moment you enter, you're enveloped in a chic yet cozy atmosphere that perfectly complements the delightful dining experience ahead. The menu is a fantastic blend of classic Italian flavors with a contemporary twist. I started with the signature “Meatball,” which is a must-try—juicy, flavorful, and served with a delectable marinara sauce that left me wanting more. For my entrée, I indulged in the famous “QUALITY BAKED LASAGNA & FILET MEATBALLS,” and it did not disappoint. The pasta was cooked to perfection, and the rich, savory sauce was an absolute delight! The wine list is extensive, featuring an impressive selection of Italian wines that beautifully enhance each dish. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me choose the perfect pairing that elevated my meal even further. To finish off, I couldn’t resist the “Tiramisu,” and it was heavenly—light, creamy, and just the right amount of sweetness. The service throughout the evening was outstanding. Our server was attentive and friendly, providing recommendations and ensuring our dining experience was seamless. Quality Italian is truly a gem in Cherry Creek. Whether you’re looking for a romantic dinner or a night out with friends, this restaurant delivers an unforgettable experience. I can’t wait to return! Highly recommend!
