Editorial Review for Cafe Gondolier – by Orya Hyde-Keller
In Short
Gondolier's digs on Pearl are a far cry from its old home on 28th and Valmont. The rug art and chandelier remain, but with its dim lighting and high ceilings, the new space is a bit more refined. Homemade al dente noodles are topped with the delectable sauce of your choice: tomato, marinara, mushroom or oil and garlic. Other highlights are the mushrooms marinara appetizer, chicken Parmesan and gigantic calzones.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoIf you want a mixture of the tomato sauce and the olive oil and garlic sauce on your pasta, tell them you want the "blend." If you want a mixture of the marinara sauce and the olive oil and garlic sauce (a bit spicier), ask for the "mix."
What to DrinkThere is a wide selection of beer on tap, as well as an extensive wine menu. Make sure to ask about the nightly wine specials.
The ExtrasTuesdays and Wednesdays are all-you-can-eat nights, when a plate of bottomless spaghetti will only leave you five bucks in the hole.

we tried for the first and last time. this place is designed for tourist only. No one in there right mind would ever go back again. The food was sooooooooooo bad we left with the leftovers in hand, thinking we could mix with some home made sauce we had at the house, but decided to throw in the trash. .
Pros: lots of glass windows to people watch
Cons: some of the worst food in boulder

They quickly seated a group of 6 on a friday night, service was prompt and considerate, even with all our special dietary requests. the food was average to very tasty, the alfredo and seared salmon were excellent. For the price I would recommend this as a very clean, slightly fancy place good for taking the parents.
Pros: nice atmosphere, large portions, good price
Cons: can be loud, food a little bland
