   Myself and 4 daughters went for lunch on our day visiting the Denver Art Museum. I picked it because we had a vegan, an omnivore and 3 pescatarians in our group and everyone was able to order something. The hostess was so polite and helpful, our waitress was exceptional and the food was fabulous. All 5 of us loved what we ordered. I ordered the Tempeh Reuben and it was a 12 out of 10.

   Museum Goers need to include a visit to Ponti as part of your cultural experience. Enjoy a rest, a drink, and a delicious meal.

   Excellent menu. We had scallops and salmon entrees. They thought our food took a little long to come out and comped a dessert which we appreciated but wasn't necessary. Definitely will be back.

   Ponti is a lovely restaurant. I’ve gone a number of times for lunch and the food and ambiance is wonderful. First time with drinks for dinner, and they were subpar, but the food made up for it!

   Food portions are quite small. An offering of bread at the table would have been good. Service was friendly but unobtrusive. Food quality was outstanding.

   Way too loud-seated in corner by a cement wall & windows. The 4 top next to us were not that loud yet we could hear every word. Wrong order brought to table . The chicken protein was a skin on chicken leg very unappetizing looking & was unappetizing to eat. The table next to us said "if that is the chicken we do not want." Grilled cheese sandwich was a bit too greasy & over grilled. Pickled onion was 4 little pieces. Not great-weird menu.

   Nice cap for a day at the museum, or any time downtown.

    afternoon pre-event at DAM early dinner . Greeted at the reception desk -by name to confirm reservation -Beautiful afternoon and window seating. Attentive and casual service - so "just right' from chcking in about readiness to order, re-filling water glasses, clearing plates and replacing flatware - this was a very high end service approach in a welcoming casual environment. Food was wonderful - brussel sprouts tender and a light dressing, my beet salad, partner's crispy grilled cheese with easy adjustment when needed a different cheese, french fries - well because we could. Even when the next shift was coming on and guests began to fill the place, service remained top notch. Coffee and a splurge of dessert - black forest cake - shared - was a delight and the whipped cream the perfect match for the chocolate cake. Kudos to everyone! First time at Ponti - hope to be a very repeat diner.
