We spent 2 nights in Glenwood Springs in May. We stumbled on the Italian Underground & loved the place. The ambience is terrific. It's better if you can sit in the section nearer the bar. It was full on both nights, with a continual turnover of tables. The staff are friendly & make you feel welcome. We ate simply; it... More

Had a great meal & service at the Underground! Garlic Butter & Bread to die for! Very accommodating with my 4 year old given their limited menu.

Spent one day in Glenwood Springs. Read the reviews and decided that is where we would have dinner. Glad we did. If we lived here, it would be our favorite restaurant. Prices were very reasonable. Food was delicious. Service was fast and they were full.

Well later I... More

This restaurant is located in the lower level along the main street cutting through Glenwood Springs and might be a little hard to find, but it will be tough to beat. Authentic linguini with white clam sauce, a nice selection of wines, and all very afforadable. try it.

Husband and I went to this place after hearing several people comment on it. OK, so you go downstairs and here is this sweet little Italian restaurant. First of all, we were impressed with the service. Secondly, the food is delicious. Really authentic Italian food. The warm garlic bread really gets your mouth watering, then the entrees are served. It's... More

Loved the garlic bread!! Fresh and warm....perfect! Good prices and great food. Staff were good too. Nice decor in the rather small room. FYI you will need to go down stairs to get there and back up for the restrooms.

We had this restaurant recommended by a local while we were at the springs and loved it. The food is great and the restaurant family run, so they are a great team. The atmosphere is lovely, with photos of the original Italian family around the walls. My husband left his wallet there(!) and they took the trouble to ring our... More

We've been to IU on several occasions and it has never disappointed. As others have said, get there early on the weekend. We were there AT 5PM and got a table. 10mins later, there was a 30 minute wait that increased to an hour quickly. I always get the combo and the kids get the spaghetti. I can easily say... More
