Abrusci's Fire & Vine - Italian restaurant in Lakewood - 2200 Youngfield St, USA

We visited on a busy night but we're still able to sit down quickly (about a 5 minute wait), and we were greeted quickly at our table. The environment is bustling, with sports TV's and a social vibe. Cocktails were good and the wine selection was strong with several options by the glass and a wide variety in bottles. Our food was very good from appetizers to mains and desserts. Interesting flavors and unique specials. The menu also included salads and healthier choices.

I got here around 5P, and good thing I did, because by the time I left, there was a wait at front door. My Shrimp Scampi was tasty and plentiful and I ate all of it. They do not offer complimentary bread with meals and that's the only thing that would've made it better. Upon asking waiter for bread, he said one must order garlic bread as a paid menu item. I'd return.

Service was great despite there only being 1 server. The food is also very good and had great flavor, especially the Calzone. All the pasta is from a box but the sauce is fresh. Seems like it would be doable to make the pasta themselves but I'm not about them how to run their clearly successful business. This is a great spot for any occasion with decent prices and an excellent happy hour as well. Everybody needed a box since the serving sizes are huge, which definitely is a plus getting 2 meals out of what could be 1 meal somewhere else. Give this place a shot and see if you had as great of an experience as we did!

Excellent date night choice! The restaurant was cozy and romantic. The service was GREAT - props to the quick hostess and our server Mike, who treated us like VIPs. And, the food was fabulous. We started with the Italian Lettuce Wraps - not something my husband would ever choose but he LOVED it. Can’t wait to try and make them at home! We enjoyed the Sausage Rigatoni and Calabrian 🤌 chef’s kiss!! Mike topped the evening off for us with a brownie a La mode and we enjoyed a beer and the Lemon Drop Martini 🍸 Highly recommend this place and look forward to our next visit!

We had lunch here today and it was almost perfect. The Mac Quattro is SO GOOD. The chicken piccata is fantastic But the garlic knots left me wanting more. The Marinara bowl was for sure too small for 4 knots. And the it just tasted like bread. I wish they did a wash of garlic butter on top before bringing it out. —don’t get it twisted though, these are still SO GOOD.

Loveeeeee this place. Second time here and will definitely be back! Food was delicious and service was fantastic! We went during their dinner rush hour so we waited for about 30mins to be seated but was so worth it! Our order took very little time to arrive and everything we ordered was amazing!

This was an absolute find of a restaurant in Denver. Lighter Italian fare in a modern deco environment, food was excellent and atmosphere and service were A+++ The wedge salad and friend ravioli were the biggest stars in our dinner..

Great service, food was good. Limoncello chicken was really nice. Chicken Parm was alright. The cannolis were not good :/ but the wine pours were VERY generous. I'd come back though it's not the best food, I was expecting better quality from the ratings! Also they include a 20% "hospitality" fee which I was confused about. There's a sign that it's not gratuity but that there's no expectation to tip on top of it. So I wasn't sure if that money actually goes to the servers or if the owners keep some of all of it.
