The service was excellent. Each dish tasted like great eating in Italy. The balsamic vinegar and olive oil dip with garlic was unique.

Odyssey Italian is a gem for anyone seeking authentic Italian cuisine in a warm, inviting atmosphere. The pasta dishes are perfectly crafted, and the sauces burst with flavor. The staff is attentive and friendly. A special shoutout to Aaron, the lovely manager, whose charm and professionalism elevate the experience even further. Overall, a delightful evening. And dog friendly, too! Highly recommend this Denver favorite for a memorable meal!

It’s like a little slice of Italy right here in Denver. Fun place to eat and the service is the best. The lamb shank is delicious and enough for two people.

Cannot recommend this noisy Italian-ish restaurant. Started with lobster stuffed mushrooms, which tasted mostly of vinegar. I can only think the lobster must have been canned. Followed that with meh ricotta spinach stuffed shells. The tomato sauce was good and nicely spiced but the pasta was tough. Next we had a rack of Colorado lamb with asparagus and roasted potatoes. The lamb was bland and tasted stewed, rather than grilled and the meat had an odd texture like it had been frozen. The asparagus spears were wilted and grey, rather than firm and green. The roasted potatoes were fine, but again were bland. For dessert, we had a chocolate hazelnut cake and a limoncello cake. Neither dessert was made in house. The chocolate cake was mostly too sweet mousse, with a layer of overly sweet hazelnut mousse on top. The limoncello cake was by far the best thing I had all evening. Overall our server was smart and tried really hard, but couldn’t make up for the meh food.
