Reviews
The service was an art with nearly everything being presented or cleaned up by multiple people. It was very busy and a little loud but my wife and I could could still talk comfortably sitting next to each other.
Food was amazing overall. For Italian I would count it amoung the top 5 in Denver. Currently my favorite but I have a few more high end places to try. The Facasia with a marmalade balsamic was an interesting twist I enjoyed. The Ragu and their version of a shrimp scampy(sorry I forget what they called it) were equally as enticing. My wife and I definitely shared a lot. Everything we ordered was definitely carefully thought out. We took a desert to go as we were full but had to try at least something on the sweat side. The flourless chocolate cake with i believe some orange shavings and sea salt gave just enough to make it unique and extemely good.
I really enjoyed the experience. Most tables seemed to get a pizza so we felt like we might have been missing something and plan to go back for pizza. My only con is the chairs are hard but I might be biased a little since it was my squat day.
The food was okay, but the portions were surprisingly small for the price. For example, the menu listed a whole Mediterranean branzino, but what arrived was half a branzino with four baby carrots for $46. The tajarin al tartufo was $54 and the portion was extremely small literally just a couple of forks’ worth swimming in butter.
I also asked the waiter if the tiramisu was made in-house and was told yes, but unfortunately the tiramisu that arrived appeared to be a pre made product, the kind typically supplied by food companies, rather than freshly made.
Based on value for money, I would normally give no more than 3 stars, but knowing how hard this business is, I’m giving 4 stars. There is potential here, especially with portion size, transparency, and overall value.
Highly recommend:

Tiramisu
We started with a few things to share and loved the focaccia. It was fluffy, nicely seasoned, and perfect for scooping up everything on the table. The suppli al telefono were also a highlight. Crispy on the outside, creamy and cheesy inside, and just super satisfying. If you like arancini, you will love these.
For mains, the pasta absolutely delivered. The tonnarelli alla gricia was rich, peppery, and perfectly balanced, and the pasta was cooked exactly right. You can tell they care about technique. We also tried another dish at the table and every bite tasted fresh and thoughtfully made, not heavy or one-note.
If you are into seafood, the crudo section is worth ordering from. Everything tasted clean and bright, and it felt like the kind of menu where you can order confidently because the quality is consistent.
Dessert was the perfect finish. The tiramisu was classic and not overly sweet, with great espresso flavor. It is the kind of dessert that disappears fast.
Service was excellent throughout. Friendly, knowledgeable, and paced the meal well without making us feel rushed. Overall, Osteria Alberico is an easy 5 stars. Great food, great service, and a spot we will absolutely be back to.
