Risica is on the list, and a few rooms are not
Westword and Axios both have Risica open in RiNo. Axios also names three closings and a Halloween slice at Federales. We have not eaten at Risica.
Checked the evening of Wednesday, Oct. 21.
Risica is the one that goes on Eat. Westword said Andrea Frizzi's Milanese pizzeria and wine bar opened over the prior weekend at 3463 Walnut St. in RiNo, with nothing on the menu over $20. Axios Denver's Oct. 21 list includes it too. The restaurant's own site says "Now open" at that address and also still prints "Opening soon." We have not eaten there. It is On Our List, not a review.
Axios also said Denver is saying goodbye to The Greenwich, Uptown's Park & Co, and Parlor Doughnuts' Lincoln Street location. None of those three was a listing here, so nothing came off Eat or Nightlife for them.
A free slice, not a new restaurant page. Axios said Ranalli's has a walk-up window at Federales in RiNo starting Oct. 29, and a free slice on Halloween from 4–6 p.m. while supplies last. That note does not print a street address, so it stays in this post and off the calendar.
Den Thai Street is in the same Axios story as planning to open Thursday in the former Reckless Noodles spot in Capitol Hill. That is a plan in a news story, not an opening we can put on Eat tonight.
