    Amazing food and exceptional service. The squash appetizer was my favorite. We went on Monday so there were homemade spaghetti and meatballs. The bread was also spectacular.

    I made reservations for 5pm on Thanksgiving Eve not knowing if they would busy. My party was the first, but they filled up by 6pm. Their cuisine is primarily southern Italy, with pasta and antipasti items. They have an extensive wine list by the bottle and 9 wines by the glass. We had their Radicchio salad which was ideal to share and the Salumi e Formaggi platter. We both got pastas. They offer 1/2 size and full size portions. I splurged for the best red wine (2019 Nicosia Contrada Monte Gorna Etna Rosso) from Sicily, grown on the southeast flank of Mt Etna. The volcanic soil and sea breezes made for a full bodied but lighter red wine. We both had desserts and Amaro to finish this great experience. We were served by Nicole R which gave recommendations and was efficient.

    Restaurant is very good. Staff is fantastic. I would highly recommended more people show up as the more there are I think the better overall atmosphere would be.

    My husband and I took our sons to dinner at Coperta last night. We sat in a booth which made for a cozy evening. We started with a meat & cheese board and cocktails. Staff helped us choose a bottle of wine to pair with our entrees. As always, dinner was delicious. We enjoyed eggplant parm, ravioli, tortellini, & spaghetti. For us there’s no skipping dessert at Coperta. We shared gelato, vanilla pudding, donuts, and olive oil brownies. I love this place. We will be back!

    We popped over to Coperta after watching our 1st holiday drone show in downtown Denver. Our meal started with seasonal bruschetta. Delicious! We enjoyed tortellini and ravioli along with a drink from the bar. Our server, Sarah, was delightful. The evening wrapped up with dessert. Couldn’t skip it! I love Coperta because the atmosphere feels a bit like home. Perfect night.

    Excellent experience. The food was excellent with one complaint: Every dish I ordered was over-salted. The first thing I tasted was salt in every dish. Other than that the food was well- prepared and flavorful. The extra salt was not needed.

    Wife and I came here for the first time on a date night. We loved the ambience of the restaurant, our waitress was friendly, polite, and made great suggestions. I got the house wine, which was average and the rigatoni which was also very average. Not much flavor. The chicken cubes were very small and too salty to eat. I ate all the noodles and left the chicken pieces. You would think they would have bread/oil on the table or bring it with your meal. Without the bread, the meal is very bare bones. Overall, average for an nicer Italian restaurant. The menu is limited. I was hoping to try their meatballs but they only do meatballs on Mondays.

    It was a bit under-staffed, but they were able to fulfill whatever we needed. The food blew us away! The ragu was truly one of the best I've ever had (and I've had several throughout Italy) and the seasonal roasted squash dish was exemplary! We will be back again.
