Insalata Caprese Con Burrata Campana
Delicioso! Tomatoes are always fresh, cheese is creamy and delicious, and the herb blend that they use with the olive oil will leave you licking your lips!
Minestrone alla Genovese
Delicious soup full of vegetables and light on the pasta. The broth was exceptional.
Ravioli di pesce in crema di gamberi
The best homemade ravioli ever! The flavor was amazing, and the service was outstanding. We had an amazing night, and so much fun! We'll definitely be going back soon!
Spaghetti alla "NONNO PUPPO"
The best, by far, marinara sauce in Denver.
Ravioli di pesce in crema di gamberi
We celebrate every special event at Lo Stella. The experience transports us back to Italy with exceptional pasta dishes, wine to match & a heartfelt feeling of family! This is a true diamond in Denver and we are lucky to share Lo Stella with our Portofino friends!
Scaloppina di pollo al limone e capperi
Every time I come here I feel like family. I love coming here and enjoying the lovely atmosphere and even more pleasing food.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
Best Bolognese I've ever had!!! Negroni was perfecto,😁
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
BEST Italian restaurant in Denver. We take all business guests, all family and all friends that visit here. Never disappointed. Food ambience and staff impeccable.
Agnello "Lo Stella"
Absolutely delicious. Cooked properly, seasoned well. Will get it again.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
Every time when I come to Lo Stella I've been getting this dish for to go, because I can't have everything on the menu... then, I enjoy it for my lunch the next day :)
San Marzano
Love this spot! Takes me back to my time in Italy. Make sure to have a pizza too while you're here-delicious
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
Lo Stella is like eating inside a warm and cozy Italian countryside home yet with vibrant energy, delicious and thoughtful food, and an inviting atmosphere. I feel so lucky to have a place to enjoy like this, especially when unable to visit Italy itself. Usually I use bolognese as a litmus test for a great Italian restaurant - it's incredible here! It's all amazing, actually.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
This is absolutely the best Bolognese I have ever eaten. Every single time, (and there were many over the years) the pasta was cooked to perfection, never overdone, the blend of spices and beef in the sauce brings a joy to my heart; it's like a vacation to a small Italian family home, always bringing back warm memories with every bite. Seriously, I begin with the Caprese- followed by this tagliatelle and always a nice red blend! I want my friends to try this dish because I care about you and want to improve the quality of your lives by introducing you to this meal!
Ravioli di pesce in crema di gamberi
Hands down my all time favorite dish! Succulent & perfectly balanced flavors - certainly plate licking goodness... even if other patrons are watching! I often eat one on site, then order one to go and have it for breakfast the next day.... yes, it decadent to do so... but I never have any leftovers so its worth it! Thank you Lo Stella!
Scaloppina di pollo al limone e capperi
A very light flavorful chicken meal with balsamic seasoned mozzarella and tomato. The sautés mushrooms were a wonderful compliment.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
The entire evening was amazing! Loved the food, wine and our server, Fabrizo. Our favorite restaurant in Denver. Can't wait to go back!
Insalata Caprese Con Burrata Campana
Maybe the best Caprese salad I've ever had. The buffalo mozz is amazing.
Ravioli di pesce in crema di gamberi
Seriously one of the best dishes I've ever had. Creamy and rich but not heavy. Purely delicious.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
A dish to die for. Especially if pasta is tossed in the famous parm rind. Nonna's bolognese is perfect blend of meats and spices. Every visit to LoStella reminds us of Northern Italy and especially Parma, Modena and Bologna where we never had a bad meal.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
awesome, 2nd time here , great service, and great food.. looking forward till the next time.
Minestrone alla Genovese
The absolute most delicious Italian food anywhere! From the bread to the soup and pastas, fish and light dessert put a fork in me I'm done! Search is over! Bravo Lo Stella Denver!!
Taglierini con gamberi e zucchini e zafferano ( Mick Jagger's choice)
This was the very best pasta I have ever had. Mick Jagger was right!
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
Obsessed! We get the same thing every time and are never disappointed! Whether you're dining in or picking up it's always amazing! The owner is there every time we are and his level of service is beyond! I make a killer homemade bolognese but I can't get anywhere close to Nonna Laura!
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
A great staple to have here. Just the right amount of sauce/pasta combo. Mix that with the most energetic and friendliest owners/employees in Denver and you will have a fun time that will keep you wanting to come back for more. Highly reccommend the experience and the food.
Taglierini con gamberi e zucchini e zafferano ( Mick Jagger's choice)
Had this for the first time recently... WOW!! Just the right amount of Saffron balanced by the Shrimp & Zucchini to place you in a Satisfying Flavorful Food Wakefulness and don't forget the Homemade Taglierini! I highly recommend!!
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
The food is always excellent at Lo Stella and we are always treated like royalty when my friends and I dine there. Fabrizio remembers the wine we like and calls us The Princesses! This is my favorite Italian Reataurant in Denver!
Insalata Caprese Con Burrata Campana
There were four of us celebrating my husband's retirement and Lo Stella is our favorite neighborhood restaurant and it was perfect for our "mini" celebration. Fabrizio took care of us from beginning to end and graciously served our appetizer dividing it for the four of us and did the same for our salad. Our entrees were delicious as always. In this "pandemic era" that we live in, Fabrizio some how made our evening really special. We are so grateful to have this wonderful Italian restaurant in the Golden Triangle! Salute🤗
Aperol Spritz
My girlfriend and I truly LOVE this restaurant. As we are both learning the italian language, it's one of the very few places in Denver where we can both enjoy conversing in 'la lingua Italiana" and experience "la vita bella" despite being so far away from our beloved Italy. The hospitality, the food, and warmth of the service remind me so much of being back in Italy. This is a testament to the family who owns this fantastic restaurant and the wonderful people who work there who make visiting a beautiful experience! I will be back for years to come and I promise to bring friends! Ci vidiamo!
Prosciutto e Burrata
in search of happiness? try the prosciutto e burrata. do yourself a favor and pair it with a Brunello! you're welcome ;)
Ravioli di pesce in crema di gamberi
This was one of our very first meal we had at Lo Stella 5 or 6 years ago and we've been going there ever since. Lo Stella became like a family to us. Everything is delicious at this restaurant, the service is always excellent, and we end up going to Lo Stella in Portofino last year just to see the rest of the family. :)
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
Best ever Italian dish I have had in the US! The family that runs this little gem are so kind and all the dishes are excellent!
Ravioli di pesce in crema di gamberi
This dish is absolutely incredible. The sauce is amazing, best ravioli I ever had. My husband and I love this restaurant for the atmosphere and the staff. We always are treated like royalty and have the best conversations with them. The pictures of their restaurant in Italy is amazing to look at as well.
Insalata Caprese Con Burrata Campana
The cheese, fresh as an Italian sea breeze, melts in my mouth. Is Burrata called cheese? Cheese of the gods! And tomatoes in season are sun drenched. I eat this Antipasti with a spritz -- what a snack! Just writing this makes my mouth salivate! I am on my way.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
They are back! We missed them. As we remembered the bolognese tasted so good!
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
Last night my friends and I had dinner at Lo Stella and it was FANTASTIC. We got the prosciutto to start and I got the bolognese and it was cooked perfectly. Our waiter was super professional, prompt and friendly. We will definitely be going back!
Scaloppina di pollo al limone e capperi
Best in town. I'm glad they reopened.
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
Wonderful, simple, delicious.
Filetto al Balsamico
I discovered Lo Stella in a raging snow storm after hearing it reviewed as a downtown place with parking. Oh, its so much more! I've been back many, many times for all kinds of celebrations. I am partial to the beef voronoff in that magnificent sauce but everything my guests have had has been great. Nice wine selection, charming owner and professional staff. I'm taking friends this week for their wedding present. Lo stella is probably my favorite Denver restaurant. That's saying a lot because pre- covid, i ate out a lot!
Tagliatelle Alla Bolognese della Nonna Laura
We've only had great dishes and service- as good or better than many memorable tiny places we have enjoyed in Italy.
Filetto al Balsamico
Tender, juicy and covered with a delicious sauce, this was one of the best meals I have ever had. Highly recommended
