                                      Moderately disappointed on my fourth dining experience here. Few restaurants can deliver excellence every time, and Paravicinis fell a bit short for us this time. 3 of 4 dishes were excellent, while my lasagne was warm on the outside but room temp on the inside (the flavor was amazing after I took it home to heat it). Our group of 4 had a difficult time conversing due to the loud noise. Further, one of our chairs was broken and thus uncomfortable. We will return because it’s still one of the best restaurants in The Springs!

                                      It was wonderful with 1 drawback and that being the food was served too quickly. When I dine I like the full experience. I like to enjoy. We were in the middle of our salad when the entree arrived. To me an entree needs to be served after . Thank you and I am sure this will improve…..Otherwise delightful evening.

                                      On our anniversary, we each ordered the tenderloin dinners. Both were excellent. Top quality meat and sauces were excellent also. Would recommend either one. First time ordering steak, usually have some kind of pasta. It really is the best Italian in the state.

                                      Went to Paravincis based on a Google search for “best Italian near me”. The search returned Paravincis as “voted the best in Colorado”. I’m up in Denver, so I was a tad reluctant to drive all that way for somewhere I’d never heard of before, however the drive to the Springs did not disappoint! The arancini appetizer was so good, as well as the rest of the meal. Definitely worth going back!
