“We began out tour through this elegant American / Italian restaurant, starting off by the lounge area; then we moved to the kitchen area. I was excited to see such a classy set up, that also includes The outdoor patio nect to the Courtyard fountain. Now here is a very nice spot to sip on one of their 21 different martinis.”
OK, now I am anxious to begin this tasting. They choose this elegant Italian styled room to hold our event. The entrance was two replica styled pillars on each side, and paintings of horses on each wall. Soft lighting and a large dining table, makes for an excellent place for your family or business special occasions.
Our tasting began with four different, delightfully fresh and cool salads. Then Siena paired the salads with three amazingly looking and tasting Italian styled pizzas. My favorite pizza was the “Spicy 3 Meat” which offers salami, pepperoni, soppressata, pepperoncini, crushed red pepper and house sauce. We were also served; Margherita a classic, with fresh mozzarella, light tomato sauce and parmesan, Chicken and Artichoke with roasted chicken, boursin cheese, artichoke hearts & brushed with extra virgin olive oil.
Now here was a real treat for me. We dove into Siena’s Maine Mussels’with Colorado Sausage Factory spicy sausage, tomatoes, cilantro pesto, lime and poblano chiles. “Yum, Yum! Another one of my favorites again, was the wonderfully cooked ‘Crispy Calamari’with a spicy marinara and fresh basil aioli. “I cannot say one food item was over or undercooked, just perfect!”We were spoiled to five different entrees: Chicken Parmagiana,Grilled Forentine Steak, Mahi Mahi, Double Cut Pork Chop and Angel Hair Pasta. Along with great food they served six different wines. Each was hand picked from the General Manager, Mark Gilbert. After tasting each wine I can tell you, Mark knows how to pick’um!
After a very warm reception from our host and its staff, to spending so much valuable time tasting such a great menu; we had closed the place down for that evening. Everyone had such a wonderful time that it was so hard to leave this restaurant; its waiting staff and what the Chef had delighted our palates on. I will diffidently recommend Siena at The Courtyard to everyone I know and come to know. It will now matter how far you need to travel, this quaint American / Italian style restaurant, located in the historic downtown of Castle Rock, is easy to find.
Thank You All, The owner of Siena Restaurant, Maureen Russell (Marketing Director), Mark Gilbert (General Manager)!
