Eating in history! Opened in 1947 by the three Smaldone brothers, sons of, and alleged bosses within, Denver’s most legendary Mob family, Gaetano’s is today a high-end Italian restaurant. They refuse to dodge the finest ingredients of its Mafia past. House specialties include a triumvirate of veal dishes—Scalloppine, Picatta & Marsala—as well as a Shrimp Fra Diavolo that’ll make you want to wear pinstripes and spats, and chomp a fat cigar over a short glass of anisette. Ciao!
