Amazing!!! AUTHENTIC! All of the reviews saying this is like an Olive Garden must have not slept well the night before. Our pasta was recommended by the waiter and it was to die for. The waiters spoke Italian, the kitchen was lively, and our food came out in the perfect amount of time. My husband and I were very happy with our meals here.
Monday nights are pasta nights for $10. MAKE A RESERVATION. Very small unique restaurant. ALL of their food is phenomenal. Their fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken is fantastic. I recommend their manicotti. The lobster mushrooms are great, but not worth the price.
A lovely place for a date night. Everyone in Denver must visit.

TL:DR - excellent food, excellent service, dont be afraid to ask for recommendations, wonderful atmosphere.
Let me start off with the food. As someone who is not nearly as familiar with the Sicillian cuisine, I came in with an open mind and an empty stomach. The menu was a bit long, but not overwhelming. I asked for a recommendation from the staff and they recommended ossobuco. This dish will not be found on the menu apparently, but this place did a PHENOMENAL job.
Dont fill up on the bread - the spread is delicious, but you want to save room for your entres.
As someone who ate it for the first time, I found that the knife was merely a suggestion for stabilizing the food on the fork instead of actually cutting the food. The meat was incredibly tender and literally melted in my mouth like butter. The potatoes and vegetables paired beautifully - someone who grew up with vegetables being picked out with disdain, I couldn't help but reach for more and ate them faster than the meat. The dish looks simple, but the flavor profile is complex and creates a wonderful balance of taste and texture. Presentation was wonderful.
The dessert - turamisu - sadly is outsourced, but do not be fooled. The mascarpone was well pronounced and it was a light and lovely way to end the meal. The strawberries on top were a great way to cleanse the palate mid desert and paired well with the mint and whipped cream.
The service - marvelous. Z was patient, attentive, and never let my water run dry. He was able to also attend to a lot of other tables on a very busy night, but not feel rushed or impersonal with any guests. Very friendly and was able to explain and recommend options on the menu at a professional standard.
The atmosphere is very intimate - excellent 0lace to take your date or family to. Of you have an old friend who is coming to town and you are interested in Sicillian cuisine, I have no hesitation in recommending this fine establishment.
I will be back and bring my family here. Thank you very much for the outstanding evening!
It was my daughter's birthday and we wanted to celebrate with her. She loves Italian food and finding a place that could sit 11 people was really difficult, but I called Odyssey and they said that they would seat us. That was so great. When we arrived, they had the table ready for us on the patio. The space was tight, but the place was really cool. It just has a neat atmosphere with being in the avenues and seeing so many people walking around. The server couldn't have been better. The food was excellent. I loved the bread. So good! They brought plenty and it was served with an olive oil mixture that included garlic and vinegar. So good. I ordered the chicken parm and couldn't have been happier with it. I highly recommend Odyssey.
We had the best time at this restaurant. The service was the best I've experienced in Denver. I ordered the manicotti with the parm crusted chicken, and I was blown away.
I highly recommend this place. Especially on Mondays when it's $10 pasta night.
Great place on 6th that serves some seriously fresh pasta. Sat on the patio which is right on 6th Ave so not the quietest place, but inside looks much more cozy and intimate. This wasn't a romantic dinner for 2 on this visit so not quite as big a deal. Service was slow, but the food was worth the wait. A plate of bread with evoo, balsamic, fresh garlic and spices was the first thing to be enjoyed. Stuffed mushrooms were not overly spiced and the saffron shrimp pasta was slightly spicy, slightly sweet which was a nice change. Lobster stuffed ravioli was just right and the portions were very large. If you're like me, and just a small amount of pasta fills you up; one entree split between two diners will be more than enough. Definitely plan on dining here again.
Great service, and food was great too! Our waiter was extremely nice and funny, service was also fast and it was in the middle of rush hour. I really liked their chicken marsala, but wasn’t a big fan of lobster stuffed mushrooms. Overall great experience with good food and great service!

one of the best Italian restaurants in the city definitely not Olive Garden. I highly recommend experiencing this place especially on a date. 5/5 STARS

Nice Italian vibe at this restaurant. It gets very busy, even on weeknights with staff doing a lot of rushing around. Service was friendly with a few misses, probably due to the rush.
Food was very good, not great. Chicken Piccata had a nice lemony flavor. Carbonara was good, but I much prefer a classic carbonara as opposed to the use of Alfredo sauce as is done here.
Wish I'd snapped a pic of the dessert tray as it is impressive with many options.
Solid first experience last night at Odyssey while in town. Ended up getting a caesar salad, calamari, capellini pomodoro & basil, veal braciole, and a cannoli. The appetizers and dessert were fantastic, but we were slightly disappointed with the entrees (not bad just didn't necessarily fulfill the craving we had when ordering). Definitely would go back but would try ordering different entrees.
