What an incredible experience! Don't let the outside fool you. From the moment you step in the door you will have an incredible culinary experience in a relaxed atmosphere. The service was top! Chef's Asian and Italian fusion creations are like nothing I have ever had before. And the recommended wine choices were perfect! I hosted a large group who said "a 15 out of 10" " such unexpected amazing flavors like I have never had before". "The staff really delivered an experience, not just a meal"a few favorites- black cod with dried cherry Shiraz over a black truffle asparagus ravioli; veal Osso bucco;5spice garlic shrimp; short rib lasagna. Honey cake and Panna cotta with berry red wine. And check out the sister restaurant a few doors down Bettola

This cafe and bar is a gem! The cozy atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing coffee or a lively evening with friends. The coffee is rich, and the selection of drinks at the bar is impressive. The staff is friendly and attentive, making it an ideal spot for both a casual catch-up and a night out. I highly recommend this place for its versatile charm and delightful offerings.

This pace is a hidden gem that is not all what it seems from the outside. They use vegetables and herbs for their own garden and have a great wine selection. The food is great, but it is a very small menu and restaurant. Make reservations and plan to spend a couple hundred on a meal for two with wine.

Wow, wow, wow.... Hands down one of the best accidental restaurants I've stumbled upon! I honestly didn't even look at the reviews before going and after sitting down I knew it was fate that brought my appetite there. This place is tucked in a shopping center off Iliff and Parker and met some friends for dinner after one said she wanted Italian food and suggested the spot. The ambience is cozy and inviting and the service is what makes it that much better. We chose a few apps off the menu and then asked for a recommendation for a bottle of wine to share - bonus: 1/2 price Wine Wednesdays! - and it was on point! I can't believe I forgot to take a picture but I'm sure it's a red wine that most every client has enjoyed! Since everything is made from scratch, you may wait a little longer but not to worry... the fresh homemade bread the guys bring to the table quite possibly might be the best I've ever had. It's so light and crispy with a buttery flavor that melts in your mouth and it's not what you are expecting. Paired with the oil and balsamic dipping sauce it's sooooo good! I ordered the fish and chips and the batter was perfection with a side of coleslaw that was extremely flavorful and some homemade fries. My friend ordered the salmon salad and the portion was huge and had so many fresh flavors that the combination was described as an explosion in her mouth. The other couple shared the seafood linguine and couldn't get enough of the sauce and flavor. We were more than satisfied and full by the time we left and can't wait to go back! Cheers. Thanks guys for making our first visit amazing!!

Dropped by this restaurant after landing in Denver. We were definitely in for a treat. Italian food with an Asian twist. Josh the bartender/waiter was so nice and attentive. We got the lemongrass penne, brussel sprouts, rigatoni and it was allllll delicious! The fresh baked bread was so perfect and the wine selection is amazing. Definitely don't want to miss out on this place. They currently merged with Cody's next door. So the food was from Both menus. Incredible! Chef Sue is killing it! We love you and will definitely be back for more!

Much love to the Cody's / Bettola duo. Special thank you to Josh, our fantastic server w the best suggestions & Schaefer, the iconic sommelier. (If you're not up to speed yet, Cody's & Bettola have combined at Cody's & serve both menus!!) We opted to sit outside after a long day of work - love the atmosphere. Sounds of water streaming and smells of beautiful flowers. Perfect. We ordered from the Bettola menu last night && enjoyed a bottle of Riesling - Wine Wednesday friends, don't miss out!! (: To start off, we had the brussel sprouts - 11/10 a crispy, delicious flavorbomb. I ordered the rigatoni & bae ordered the scallops. SOOO FLAVORFUL. ugh. I brought leftovers home to eat later, but tbh .. they didn't last long! So yummy. We ended the night with a layered honey cake that tastes like .. angels and all things good and whole in the world. I don't know how else to explain it! Truly though .. Josh was fantastic - he was very attentive and literally gave us the best foodie recommendations. Schaefer filled us in on our choice of wine and was just all around great to connect with. Thank you again for an amazing wine&dine evening.

Post COVID/Dining 7.9.2021 The dining room is NOW OPEN! They also have a lovely patio option with a water feature and LOVELY FRESH flowers. It was so nice to enjoy a great meal and sit down and dine! We enjoyed the Friday busy in the restaurant with two servers running around, lots of guest chatting and enjoying their meals with loved ones. It was nice to see friends catching up, date nights, girls night wine happy hour and large parties ending the work week at Cody's. It felt great to enjoy a meal not in a take out box and enjoy some good pasta by candlelight. I enjoyed a Misto Salad, Clams Linguine and the Matcha Key Lime Pie. All a must order. There were a couple clams with a sand crunch but the noodles and ambiance of the restaurant were fantastic! The sauce was yummy!!! The linguine noodles were Aldente and perfect! I enjoyed the warm bread with the clam sauce and the fresh herbs in every bite. The two servers were outstanding and worked so hard running around a busy and FULL restaurant. I was so grateful for a nice meal and enjoyed the experience! They have a great wine selection and change up the menu seasonally. I'll be back soon!

Seriously love this place. I'm from LA and visiting but they are so hospitable here. Have my kid bread and he's Allergic to nuts so they fried the Asian spring roll again separately voluntarily. The Italian place said they were full even though there open tables. glad we bailed on that place. This place is an Italian Asian fusion and it works well. Good value and well executed.
