Ate there for my first time with a big group for a Birthday celebration last night, and now that I know there is one closer to me in Boulder (in Louisville), I am so very excited. First off, their beer list is GREAT, which is very important! They had many of my "staple" beers on their menu. It was perfect timing, because they had just tapped some Pliny the Elder (which anyone in Colorado knows is sparsely distributed here and near impossible to find, unless you want to buy a keg of it), so, I was thrilled. I tried several of the small bites- including the fried cheese curds and the pig sticks (pulled pork fried in mozzarella stick like shape with a delicious spicy BBQ dipping sauce)... Delicious. I could eat those pig sticks all day long... Really. I went simple, since it was going to be a night out on the town. and went with the Mozz pizza. Perfectly simple and the san marzano tomato sauce always brings a nice sweetness to a mozzarella and basil pizza. Crust was great, too. We had a big group of over 20 people and our waitress was great- very attentive and helpful with menu suggestions for those of us who hadnt eaten there before. She also mentioned the meatballs were her other favorite, so they are definitely on the list to try for next time. My friends that have been there said that everything on their menu is good- you really cant go wrong. They said the Popeye and the Pepperoni were their favorite pizzas, so thought Id share the dishes there that are *especially* good. Needless to say, a great place that I will absolutely be going back to. Cant wait to try the Louisville location!

I have been in the restaurant business for 26 years. Our service was fantastic! We started with the cheese curds which were crazy good, and Im from Chicago so I should know. Everyone at our table got the small batch handcrafted Sodas with real cane sugar was a treat. Next I had the classic Caesar salad but they added red pepper flakes to it which gave the spicy kick. Never had a Cesar like that before but I would have it again in an instant. Finally, I had Ruben pizza. You cannot just like I imagined it would and the crust was Crisp and light. All-around, I would recommend this as a good place to eat with a young fun atmosphere.

To notch bar and bartenders. They do a great job of keeping the beer selection interesting, which shouldnt be hard to do in a place like Denver but is surprisingly less common than you might expect. Or maybe its just me...but these guys get it. The pizza is also excellent. They put a lot of effort into quality ingredients and process - house meats and cheeses are the norm - and it shows. Located in the heart of Lodo, the space is fresh and is well laid out with good accommodation for groups either dining in or hanging out in the lounge. There is also Ioutdoor patio seating.

Words cant express how great this place is! From the very start, our awesome waitress, Nicole, set the bar high. Chef Rob followed up with a house made charcuterie and cheese plate and the best pizza we have ever eaten. He even gave pizza dough throwing lessons. Then the kids capped the dinner off with chocolate chip dough pizza. I would highly recommend this place to any one. It works as a high class pizza parlor with friends or family night out with the kids.

As pizzas go, this is the real deal: good crusts, generous toppings, and bright, fresh flavors -- with an excellent local beer selection on the side. We were pleasantly surprised by this Denver institution, which also served us a respectable salad (ew, healthy!) while we were there. The spicier the pie, the better our experience -- so order accordingly. Next time were in town, this joint tops our list of the pizza places well return to.

Upscale, trendy, upbeat and professional. I was very impressed with the menu which offers a fresh, healthy and great tasting pizza. Made with homemade cheese, and prepared in a Gordon Ramsay style presentation. Each bite was good well balanced taste. Although the food feels upscale the restaurant does not feel stuffy, or snobbish. It actually has a college laid back trendy feel. The staff is friendly helpful and knowledgeable.

Fantastic! The pizza was absolutely delicious. My wife had the Mozzo and I had the pepperoni, both were delicious. Something I always pay special attention to in pizza is the sauce and the sauce was fantastic on both pizzas we had. I also recommend as many others will the fried cheese curd, a great way to start the meal. The beer was also very good, I loved the Station 26: its very smooth. Highly recommend if you are in the area

I came here on GABF Friday wanting to eat and try the great beer selection. The beer did not disappoint, better organized than Falling Rock and the staff is certainly better. I did not eat, after I was told I would be CHARGED to have an item removed from a pizza (WTH, I had this happen once before in Boston). Many businesses say customer service is #1 but +70% fail for lack of it, +85% of people do not return because of it.

Holy cow. This place is great, and the service was just as awesome. Its like a craft beer buffet every day, some local, some not. They make their own organic cheeses and cure their own meats in house. Better yet, the prices arent ridiculous for what you light expect for organic, local, artisan food. Also, their cheese curds are delish. Hard to find real, good cheese curds this far West of the Mississippi :)

Pizza in Colorado sucks. Lucky pie does not. Its almost impossible to find a decent pizza in Colorado... Ive been everywhere. Lucky pie has a perfectly cooked crust with decadent, seasonal toppings. Stop wasting your money elsewhere. This pizza is amazing. Not to mention the salads and cheese curds. Next time we will try the charcuterie board. Word is they cure their own meats. Yum!

Food was spot on, five stars for beer and pizza. Suppose Wednesday is not the day to grab a personal pizza at the bar, poor service. Barely represented a smile upon being served, though punctual, lacking much personality. The bartenders had more interest in chatting with fellow staff that associating with clientele. Great food, maybe next time better service.

Pizza is very bland, very little sauce, and "balls of furry???". These lamb sausage balls are microscopic , and you cant even taste them. Im a guy from Montana and usually take what I get and am happy with it. I never write reviews, but felt compelled to say something. This is very disappointing for a pizza I just paid $32.00 for. Im just so disappointed...

This is some of the best pizza Ive ever had. If you like neopolitan-style thin crust and are in Denver, its the place to go. You can of course customize, but almost all of their specialty pizzas are really outstanding. Plus a nice atmosphere, outdoor seating, and a great location. As good as the best places in NYC (I lived there for four years).

Best pizza in Denver in my opinion, but the serivce was the worse today. Im not sure if the waitress had our table, but even if it wasnt she looked directly at our table several times and never came over. Just terrible customer service, but I do appreciate a different waitress who didnt even have tables, but she came over and took our order.
