This was delicious! I just heard of it and so we went to try it and wow! We got the pesto pasta (sorry I forget what it’s called) and the fettuccine alle siciliano. Then for dessert we got the semifeddo al cioccolato and Panna cotta alle fragole. Everything was so yummy and our server was so sweet and kind. Can’t wait to go back!

We came there on a Saturday evening for a dinner on a recommendation of the local chef who likes this place a lot. I tried to call to book a table and no one responded but I doubt we’d get a table anyway because the place seems to be very popular and they already had a ton of reservations lined up. They offered us seating either at the bar or on the patio outside. We chose the bar because the evening was going to be chilly and, to my surprise, it wasn’t loud at all. We felt like there were only the two of us there and enjoyed our time having a dinner.
I have to say that food is expensive there. Even more expensive than you would find in the Springs and Denver. It’s made well and has a nice twist to it but get prepared to spend over $100 on a dinner even without alcohol. Portions won’t be large either.
We ordered a Mediterranean salad to share and two entrees: lamb ribs and steak. We liked that both came with a side of greens. I don’t eat lamb but my husband liked his dish. I found it weird that while the octopus, for example, is priced upfront, their steak price is “market”, so you won’t know how much it will cost you until you get a bill. I probably shouldn’t have ordered a steak at the Italian place but I was craving it, so I decided to give it a try. I would say for the price I paid ($38), I could have had a better steak pretty much anywhere. It was small and tasted like it was boiled instead of fried. I wasn’t too disappointed because only a few places for some reason can cook a well-done steak properly but this one also had a weird aftertaste of liver, so I’d say the cut itself could have been better quality. This is the reason why I don’t give the place a five.
Since we spent quite some time there and our portions were fairly small, we also went for coffees and desserts. Both tiramisu and chocolate cake were fresh and delicious, and our coffees were good, too.
Service was great and the lady at the bar was really charming. I would probably come back for coffees and desserts if I come to Pueblo again.

La Forchetta da Massi is one of Pueblo’s absolute gems. The owners and the entire wait staff make you feel like family every single time, and the drinks are always on point. So glad they’re back open after the holiday — it was definitely missed.
The gnocchi is my favorite. They changed the name, but the flavor is still just as incredible, which says everything about their kitchen. If you’ve never been, it’s an absolute must-try. Consistently great food, service, and atmosphere.

We tried La Forchetta for the first time last evening. We had an excellent experience. Here’s the story:
We actually made a bit of a mistake in reserving for 5:30 pm on the same evening as the local Parade of Lights, which goes right down Union Ave. in front of the restaurant. As expected, maneuver around the location and parking were problematic. Because of that, and the cold weather, we came early, arriving about 4:40. While we were willing to wait elsewhere, the proprietors seated us immediately while we waited for our other two parties to arrive. Big props for being accommodating.
The food was top notch and the menu ranging from commonplace to exotic. Every dish had an element of gourmet treatment. All the entrees we ordered were excellent.
The venue is small. I wouldn’t say ‘intimate’, given that it has large windows facing the street, but it was cozy enough on a cold night. OUr server was very friendly, helpful and attentive.
Prices are not cheap, but reasonable for the quality and creativity of the menu. We didn’t order wine, but instead Italian beers in a brand I’d not heard of, allowing us to try something other than the usual two brands commonly available.

The best Italian food you can eat in the entire United States. The polenta is just like the one they make in Italy. The place is wonderful; it’s my favorite restaurant because I feel like I’m in Italy when I dine there. The service is magnificent.

Wow! Delicious, authentic Italian fare! The bread, the lasagna, the fettuccine alla bolognese, and the fettuccine alla gricia were outstanding! You can taste the high quality ingredients. If you like very rich, cheesy, salty pork pasta, try the fettuccine alla gricia.

My boyfriend, friend, and myself al decided to eat here for dinner last Wednesday. We’re from missouri, so this was our “nice dinner out” for our vacation. Our server had blonde hair and thick glasses. She didn’t seem happy that we were there, we kinda felt like a bother to her. We asked lots of questions about the menu as we’ve never had authentic Italian and we were excited/curious. She was helpful and got our order in. When we received our food it was all delicious! Definitely worth it! Towards the end our server was a lot more friendly and we even saw a smile! We would come back again!

Amazing. This was not only the best Italian we have had in Colorado, every dish we ordered was better than the best dish we had in Rome, Italy a few months ago. Padilla Ragu eas delicious. Carbonara was super flavorful and smoked meat forward. Seafood soup was delicious and everything was perfectly cooked (usually muscles are overcooked). Even my 4 year old’s kids spaghetti with tomato sauce was absolutely delicious. I only improvement I could make is a little more salt on the burata, which was easily rectified with a little salt.
Service was great and they were able to squeeze us in on a busy Saturday evening without a reservation. I’d recommend making a reservation though.
Atmosphere is very comfortable and not too formal. There was an outdoor patio in back but I didn’t get a chance to step out.
Price is a little elevated but well worth the food and location.
I live about 1.5 hours away and would almost consider driving here just for this food everyone once in a while.

What a gem! The food was top notch authentic Italian. We were seated at the bar and after our meal, the owner/Chef engaged us in conversation and we learned his story of how he landed in Pueblo. My work associate mentioned that he was traveling to Italy this summer. The owner went to the back to get his phone and shared the best off the beaten path places to visit. It made us feel like we had been invited into his home for the evening. I will be back time I am in the area.

I absolutely LOVED this place! The salmon was exceptional! The only reason I give 4 for food is that I wanted vegetables and was told only salads were available. I saw yummy veggies on other plates so not sure why I was unable to get them. Otherwise, I would go back tomorrow (BTW, desert and coffee are spot on!).
