It is with great heartfelt sadness, that after 23 years of serving the Denver community, Rialto Café will be closing its doors permanently on August 16, 2020, at 2 pm.

We have been so lucky to have so many loyal patrons throughout the years, but the majority of our business also depended heavily on visitors to downtown brought by the Colorado Convention Center and Denver Center for Performing Arts, and the many downtown hotels. Unfortunately, with so many of these closures and cancellations, we are not able to sustain our business and its operations.
We want to thank all our guests and friends who have dined at Rialto Café over the years. We will miss celebrating birthdays and special dates with you, serving Denver’s best brunch on weekends, and hosting all the many meetings and events.
We also want to thank all of our wonderful employees - some have been with us since we first opened our doors in March of 1997! We will miss you and wish you all the best for your continued success.

    We always enjoy dining here, though we missed being able to get their delicious green beans that used to always come with the bison meatloaf. Had to settle for Broccoli Rabe, not my favorite, but okay.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and time at Rialto! The staff was so sweet to our little 1.5 year old son and our waiter was prompt and friendly. The food was delicious! Our son especially liked the french fries (:

    We had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant. The bartender waited on us. She was very attentive. The place has a fun atmosphere and right on the 16 th street Mall. Can’t wait to go back.
