Spuntino - Denver

Spuntino was opened in early 2011 as a daytime cafe and gelato shop. At a time when the business was already taking steps towards becoming the quirky, chef-driven space that it is now, the then-owners took a chance on a young married couple and hired them to help run their restaurant. Chef Cindhura Reddy and GM Elliot Strathmann made the leap of faith to bet on their passions and on their wonderful tight-knit staff and bought Spuntino in the fall of 2014. These following years, the restaurant has slowly and steadily built a dedicated following of loyal diners and has gained increasing local and national recognition for its unique marriage of reverence for tradition and passion-driven innovation. Drawing from age-old scratch-minded Italian tradition and their own heritage and travels, Spuntino is and has long been a candid expression of the people behind it.
