    What a great find! We wanted to spend the day at the Denver Art Museum and realized that The Ponti serves a lovely lunch offering. Our drinks were all spot-on (smooth, well-crafted) and each of the entrees our party enjoyed were great! From burgers to a tempeh rueben sandwich to a super luscious salmon benedict -- all were cooked perfectly and very tasty -- we definitely will return. One of the highlights of the lunch was our amazing server -- just pleasant, funny, and very efficient. If you are looking to spend some time in the area, I highly recommend The Ponti!

    Food and service were both great. We had the sea scallops, cold spinach & asparagus soup (outstanding) and the smoked trout ravigote. Really cool vibe to the place too. Will definitely return when we’re back in town.

    It was a bizarre,mini, 50+, college reunion but our server took it all in stride. The service was superb, our food was as delicious as it always is, and the restaurant at the bottom of the awesome Denver Art Museum was as lovely as ever!

    We were the only diners and still our food came out cold. I had the salmon benedit and the sauce was congealed and gross. My coffee came in an overfilled cup with coffee dripping down the side. Won’t dine here again for the price. Disappointing.
