The Footers story dates back to 1978, when owner Jimmy Lambatos and his partner opened Footers Restaurant in Denver's Capitol Hill Neighborhood. A restaurant known for its authentic Italian cuisine, fresh baked bread, private wine sellers and the jovial Maitre D', Harry Lordino. This is where Jimmy laid the groundwork for his belief in great food and great service. These elements combined to give Footers an unforgettable atmosphere that people still reminisce about today. Footers was popular for all occasions and whether it was their first date or their 25th anniversary people still remember Footers as a great date restaurant.
Footers Catering sprouted from the restaurant in 1981. After splitting with his partner in 1988, Jimmy took full ownership of Footers Catering. Footers moved from its location at 7th and Logan into the current headquarters on South Fox St. in 1990 and has since overseen a 4,000 square foot expansion to house rental equipment.
From his humble beginning, catering parties with his wife, Ronda, out of a truck, Jimmy has taken Footers to one of Denver's premier caterers. His passion for creating memorable events and making people happy is at the center of what Footers stands for today. He still plays a large roll in planning events, working on floral arrangements and attending parties.

Colbert was fabulous with helping us pull it all together. Food was awesome, buffet line looked great, and the staff was professional and attentive! Loved, loved, loved Footers! Wish I could eat the salad with goat cheese and raspberry dressing again.
Jimmy and Anthony Lambatos truly run a first class operation. Besides providing exceptional service and delicious menu options, Footers Catering goes that extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction. They take pride in building long-term meaningful relationships with clients - almost like family!
My company uses Footers for almost all of our events! Food is wonderful, people and staff are so helpful, and it makes my job as an event planner so much easier! If you need a caterer - use Footers!
The food at our wedding was just as incredible as at our tasting. It was elegantly displayed, the wait staff was friendly & professional, and the person that coordinated our event went above and beyond to take care of us and our guests.
I have used Footers twice, for our daughter's wedding and for my husband's 60th birthday party. Amazing food and service both times. I will always recommend Footers and will use them again.
Truly, the BEST food!!!! Jimmy and Anthony are a wonderful Father and Son team. Weddings are about family and it's wonderful to have one serving your food. Plus, the food is INCREDIBLE.
