Editorial Review for Pagliacci's – by Marty Jones

In Short
If Tony Soprano did business in Denver, here's where he'd eat. This spot sports a classic clown-in-neon sign outside, a '40s-era bar and a dark, stucco-walled dining room inside. The house serves home-style Italian cooking, including minestrone soup, made from a decades-old recipe and brimming with al dente noodles and veggies. Pasta dishes, eggplant parmigiana, lasagna and more come graced by a simple-but-elegant, chunky-style tomato sauce. House specialties include seafood, chicken and veal dishes.

We went back to Pagliacci's to celebrate 40 years of marriage... It was where I proposed 41 years ago... We couldnt believe how great it was! We have returned over the years, but tonight was extra special! The music, the ambiance, everything just fit perfectly... Our server Eric (recently from the Bronx) was no stranger to Italian food, and agreed with us that the food was top choice! AND IT WAS! The Veal Parm was fantastic, and the Minestroni... well, what can you say.. Perfecto!. Eric made our evening extra special... we really enjoyed ourselves with salad, soup, our entree, and of course, some spamoni to top everything off... Naturally, we'll return home with our Chianti basket bottle to stick the candle in as a reminder of an extra special reminder of this evening and our first experience at Pagliacci's ... Thanks to the chef, and to Eric, our server, for an extra special evening in Denver!

Pros: food, ambience, service, everything

Cons: none

I used to love this place. My husband proposed to me there. But I just called them to make a reservation and the lady (whom I'm pretty sure is the owner) was very snotty. I've noticed snotty managers before, one who appears to be her son, but it's finally sunk in. It left such a bad taste in my mouth I'm writing this review. So I hope she reads it. First, you are a business. An invitee. Don't you depend upon your customers to help you succeed? And don't act like you are doing me a favor. You aren't. I can just as easily take my money and spend it elsewhere. And after reading the other recent reviews, I expect your business to deteriorate. It also shows me I'm not alone. Get it together. You had a great restaurant with good food, and you really don't have to ruin it with snottiness. I wish I would have called you on it. Instead I do the wimpy thing and write a review. Oh well. I know my voice is heard here.

Pros: (Used to be) Good food, good service

Cons: Rude, snotty reservationist (owner)
