Authentic Italian fare, an outstanding wine selection and excellent service come together perfectly at Moscato Ristorante. Guests feel at home in the Tuscan-style space, complete with Italian music, al fresco dining and stunning décor. The menu at Moscato changes seasonally to take advantage of the freshest produce and seafood. Start off with prosciutto e fragole — prosciutto di Parma with warm strawberries preserved in balsamic vinegar. The pasta specials feature tagliolini busere di astaco — fresh homemade tagliolini pasta and a half-pound Maine lobster in its own cooking juices. Try Moscato’s pescatrice limoncello — grilled monkfish drizzled with limoncello liqueur, alongside butternut squash and rosemary, or succulent abbacchio cacciatora — a Colorado lamb rack with Gaeta olives, San Marzano tomatoes and drunken goat cheese. Reservations are suggested. Private parties are welcome and delivery service is available. Free parking is in the rear of the restaurant. Brunch is served on weekends from 11 a.m. Hours: Open seven days a week for lunch and dinner. Monday through Thursday, from 11:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., Friday to 11:30 p.m., Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11:30 p.m., Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.
