What's not to love about Italian food? The promise of hearty pasta dishes, slices of pizza, and endless amounts of bread is hard to pass up. Since you can find an Italian restaurant in every U.S. city, what's the best one in Denver?
Yelp has the answer to that. After sorting through the "Italian" tab in Denver and sorting by the highest rating, Mici Italian came out on top!
This acclaimed restaurant has several locations in the Denver area and just opened another in Centennial. Mici prides itself on serving generations-old recipes with fresh ingredients. The menu will certainly entice you, from the Vela pizza and creamy pesto pasta to zucchini noodles.
Jennifer W. gave a sterling review of the restaurant's Centennial location:
"Food is fantastic - always hot and large portion sizes. We always have enough leftovers to eat the next day. There's something for everyone on the menu. We especially love the pastas with yummy sides of bread. Caprarola pizza is also a fave. Don't miss out on the caramel Oreo gelato. Customer service is great and food is quick from the kitchen. A 5 star place for our family to dine in or take out."
