A good “old faithful” for us but second thoughts starting to creep in after last night. Waiter was making jokes on how slow it was to get a drink from the bar. We told him we understood, it’s NYE. He said it was still unacceptable. Then, he said the cook staff was too slow too. “If they don’t get your food out soon, I’m going back there and cook it myself.” We never said a word about the speed of service. In fact, I thought it was just right, a bit of time between each course. What really threw us though was how much garlic was used in each dish. We LOVE garlic in our dishes but all three of our entrees (lobster, bison and short ribs) there was an over abundance of garlic, including larger chunks of chopped garlic that overpowered the lobster ravioli. Waiter suggested bread pudding was really good, we knew that already, but he said the kitchen takes a while to get this presented. Don’t know if he had a problem with the back of the house but you probably should not dog your staff to the customer. We’ll be back, overall good food still but staff should be reminded that they represent the entire restaurant.

Very disappointed. The food was sub par. Marinara sauce was tasteless, 25 dollar lasagna was cold and mushy with no layers. Almost like it was spooned into the plate Eggplant parmigiana was just weird and the flavor was inconsistent. Garlic bread was not very garlicky and everything was cold. We were being hosted by a friend so we didn’t want to make a fuss and hurt her feelings or we would have sent our meals back. So many better places for Italian in Denver and a much better value.

First time guests and really enjoyed almost all aspects. Smaller place but busy. Service was adequate and personable but just missed a few details we prefer with pace and check back, Food was all great and prepared fairly quickly given the place was packed. Overall, a new spot we will return to for sure.

Food was flavorless. Both my husband and I’s pasta were overcooked and very bland. The house salad was really good so we thought the food was going to be excellent but is was underwhelming. We will not be back.

This was my first time dining in at Viale and it was wonderful! I’ve gotten take out quite a few times and everything is always so good. I cant go without the burrata - other favorites are the chicken piccata, salmon, and bolognese. This is the perfect neighborhood spot with exceptional Italian. All of the staff are so great too. Can’t recommend it enough!

Food took roughly an hour to come out and was not good when it finally arrived. Comments of other diners at the table, “worst pasta I’ve ever had,” “I don’t think I will be able to get this taste out of my mouth,” and “I just can’t eat this.” The owner did come out to apologize for the delay and offered to comp the meal, which was really nice but unnecessary. We insisted on paying, but they did not bring a check so we just left cash on the table for what we assumed the bill and a reasonable tip would have been. But we won’t return. There are several great places with less of a wait and better food within a 3 mile radius.

Service was VERY slow. I think there was only 2 wait staff on a busy Sunday night. I order a pizza with spicy salami on it and there was maybe one small piece of meat on each slice. Everyone else joined their meals. It was good but not a great experience.

I brought my friend and her husband and he said how did you find this place, it’s such a special gem. I said I’ve been here over the past five years randomly but now I like it so much I’ll be back a lot more. Already went twice this week. That spaghetti carbonara with the sausage was fantastic. My friend loved her wedge salad which you can get in a lot of places but she said this one was really good

This was my first time at Viale Pizza and Kitchen. The staff is wonderful. I was seated right away for my reservation. I was disappointed with my pizza. I ordered one of their signature pizzas that came with mozzarella and burrata, but I honestly believe there was no cheese on my pizza. It was bizarre. I expected lots of cheese. I also wasn't a fan of the crust. I am always searching for great pizza and had hoped that a restaurant with "pizza" in the title would measure up. My friend also agreed that her "make your own" pizza wasn't that great. Sorry, Viale! I hate to leave reviews like this. I will definitely return to Viale because there were plenty of Italian dishes to choose from other than pizza. It's a very popular place, so they must be doing something right!

Horrifying experience. Once again, appalling kitchen management. Food is very slow to arrive and they know it. They are accommodating food service delivery while their in-restaurant patrons suffer the consequences. Ruined our Saturday evening again. If you decide to take the risk on this restaurant then expect 1 hour + for your entrees, while the server is forced to constantly apologize. Bordering on a scam
