Reviews for Cacciatore at Heller's Kitchen Windsor in Windsor, CO

Great Italian place! On our first visit, it was hard to tell for sure if we had the right place because there are no signs I... could see from the street. We parked on the street since there isn't a parking lot for the restaurant. The restaurant is insideThe Windsor Mill and there is a small sign on the door to let you know you have the right place. The staff was great and we wereseated right away at a table next to the fireplace in the back. They have a nice wine list and a few beers to choose from, but Idon't expect a large beer menu at an Italian place. When the salads came, they were really small and served on a very largeplate; I thought it was strange. Be aware, they serve anchovy on the Caesar salad, which wasn't my favorite thing. They broughta loaf of bread with olive oil to snack on while waiting for the entrees. The entrees were good! I had the chicken parmesan andmy wife had the special, which was pasta with bolognese and she loved it, but the portion was fairly small. We had enough to eatand considered a dessert, but then decided not to indulge. The prices were reasonable for a nice dining experience like this. Wehave had the pizza here before and it is VERY good! Pro tip: If you get the pizza to go and head to the brewery and eat it ifyou are in the mood for pizza and beer. Read more

Stopped by this place for the first time last week while visiting a client of mine (Betta Gumbo). The whole experience exceeded... my expectations and I have been dying to go back since. The drink special was refreshing, the food was phenomenal, and the staff(Chad & Andrea) were nothing but superb. Read more

Absolutely the best Caesar I have ever had! They put a sliver of mackerel in it and I never knew how flavorful a salad could be... until now. From the pizza to the pastas and bread ?. Can?t wait to take friends here. Andrea truly got all of us everything wecould have asked for, even joked with the kiddo. Her service was impeccable! Absolutely a winner! Read more

Stopped here at random and had dinner at the bar. Staff was very professional and friendly and so was bartender... especially. Ordered the lasagna and it was good and a large portion. Bartender Tim was attentive and on top of things. Decoris good too, large bar and sit down dining as well. If you are in the mood for Italian stop here! Read more

When I was looking for a place in Windsor to throw my friend's 40th birthday party, I gave Cacciatore a call. I spoke with... Andrea, and she was amazing. She answered all my questions and even gave me her cell number so I could continue to reach outwith any other questions. I couldn't believe how accommodating and helpful she was. The food was great, and the private room wasperfect, but the party ended up being better than I could have imagined because of Andrea! Thank you, thank you, thank you formaking the night so special!

Honestly, if it weren?t for the phenomenal service by Abby for finding us a table without reservations on a Saturday night and... then Lauren who was our server, I would probably not give five stars. The beer was really good, Lauren made great suggestions.We ordered the bruschetta appetizer and it was just weird. Tasty but not the kind of bruschetta I?ve gotten before. Same withthe eggplant parmigiana, it was just okay. My husband got the seafood dish with scallops. He said the vodka sauce was the besthe has had in a long time. At the end of the evening, we were really happy with our choice and I would recommend this place.Maybe the cook was just having an off night or maybe I was. Sometimes nothing but beer tastes good to me! Read more

Stopped in this evening to try this place out since we've been downstairs a few times. Was able to get a table within a few... minutes or arriving which was great for a Friday night. The Host, waitress, waiter, and bus boy were all very attentive.Finished plates were not on the table more than a few minutes; they had good recommendations; and we're friendly and courteous.Can definitely tell the owner and staff care about providing great service. For dinner we started with a glass of wine andLimoncello. We then had the Arancini, the outside was nice and crispy while the insides were a flavorful combination of sausage,risotto, and mozzarella. The accompanying sauce also had a bit of spice which was nice. I ordered the lasagna and my wife hadthe Spaghetti Carbonara. The entrees comes with soup or salad, I opted for a Cesar salad which included an anchovie. The lasagnawas a nice balance of noodles and cheese. It came with a couple of meatballs which were a good blend of beef and pork as well asa piece of sausage which has a great spicy trailing flavor. Overall a well balanced combination that is very filling. Thespaghetti carbonara was a good mix of flavors. This version was topped with an egg yolk which made it decedent. For dessert wehad the flourless chocolate cake. It was very close to a dense chocolate mouse but was very good, especially with the chantillycream and berries. Overall a very enjoyable dinner and dining experience. Read more

Excellent ambiance. Our server was outstanding. The drinks were very good and reasonably priced. The food came out slowly... and I thought it was average. Fairly heavy sauces, lots of cream. For the money I expect more. They could use a buser as theservers are covering too much ground. No manager present to oversee the flow. Once again, the servers were hustling. Read more
