The Original Pizza

Just found this place a few months ago and really enjoyed it. Went back 3 additional times. Will not be going back ever again. If you want to close at 8:00, then make that the hours-​of-​operation you have posted. Otherwise, honor what you advertise.

I’m originally from Brooklyn, NY and I was lookin’ for a great pizza joint in Broomfield. This place did not disappoint. I even got my wife hooked on it, now she knows how real NY pizza tastes. As for anybody that works here being «rude» like the other comments state, I just think that Coloradans get their feelings hurt way too easy. East Coast vibe is about being direct but yet still courteous. If you’re looking for a pizza joint that’s gonna pat your bottom, don’t go here. If you’re looking for an amazing pizza joint in Broomfield where you can get real NY pizza, then this is the place.

We have been coming here for 11 years and have always been very pleased with the service, food, and atmosphere. We love the manicotti ! Yum!

Just wanted to remind everyone that this is, by far, your best pizza option in the area. Locally owned, family owned and made from scratch or Papa Johns. Your choice. Don’t be stupid. Order from here.

Just moved to colorado from new york and struggled to find good pizza, and then I found this place. Absolutely love it and it reminds me of home. Pizza is so good.

My hubby and I have recently relocated to CO from NY. We have been searching for good pizza ever since we got here only to be terribly disappointed every time. Luckily someone mentioned this place to me (Thanks Marc) and thank the heavens he did! The pizza is wonderful. It def reminded me of home! And I have no clue what everyone’s problem with the owner is. he was funny and charming and pleasant! I loved listening to the back and forth between him and (who I think is) his daughter. They joked around and it was endearing. This was the first pizza place out here that even remotely looked like one back home. Everyone should try this place!

Broomfields best kept secret! So glad my friend told me about this place. I have been coming here ever since! I love coming to dine in for a quick lunch or taking a few pies home. The pizza is always amazingly delicious and the owners are always very nice as well (as long as you dont complain LOL)

OK pizza. Rude and pushy owner.
Dining should be a positive and fun experience.

The best pizza in this area by far! I think Ralphie makes them the best. The crust is crispy and chewy. The sauce is not that horrible thick dark red sauce and it has just the right amount of cheese. I love the flavored so much that I just order my pizza plain here. Also the salads are delicious as well.

Great pizza, fun staff, and tasty amber on tap.
I got the «Best Seller», which only comes in a large size, but that’s fine for me.

As always, tonight’s dinner was delicious.
We usually go with a crowd, tonight there was only 9 of us.
No biggie, they got us two tables set & ready to go in a NY minute.
Some first timers who said they’ll be back before they head back to
Pennsylvania.
Coming from NY, it feels like home. They understand my «accent».
Pizza, salads, calzones… Hard to decide, it’s all so good.
Now if they would just carry Italian ices in the squeezy cups, I would
be so happy. «Only a New Yorker would understand»

I wish I could start writing about the great pizza, but sadly I need to start by addressing the Schmuckatellis who gave bad reviews and insulted Ralph (whom I just met today). I grew up in New York among Italians (1^st gen) and frequently travel to Europe, and he is by no means rude. I got yelled at On a regular basis from my Italian mamas while being stuffed with the best Italian food you can imagine, it’s just how they work. That is being direct and honest; something these passive aggressive assessment could learn from. He was friendly, in a way you would expect from a hard working, old school man. Maybe it’s because the place is close to Boulder but if you want someone to wipe your nose and give you a hug, then go to Boulder, they have good food there too. The people who are Insulting this family are the same reason so many Americans are seen as asshole tourists.
Now that I got that out let’s talk food. To you readers out there, ignore those who judge NY Pizza based on never living on the East Coast or comparing to Anthony (a step above Papa Murphy). Thin crust does not make it a NY pie. I grew up in NY, lived in Boston and Chicago and I’m chubby… I know my pizza. That is why a friend from Brooklyn made me come here and try this.
Ralph makes a solid pizza! One that I can overcome my craving to go home and get one. Trust me, even NY has crappy pizza joints, and this place makes a good pie! If you want to compare to other great NY Pizza in Colorado than try Big Bills in Englewood and Jersey Boys up in Dillon. This are the best 3 I have found so far and the only ones deserving of being called NY Pizza.
As for those crying about the attitude, go to Papa John’s, maybe there you can get a hug and enjoy some crap pizza.

This is in the top five best pizzas I’ve ever had in my life. That includes being in Italy and New York.
Every ingredient is absolutely fresh. The crust is NY style but not too thin, not too thick, really it is just right!
The wait isn’t bad at all, your standard pizza wait, even when they are busy.
My favorite pizza is the pepperoni, I alternate with/​without fresh garlic. I also LOVE their ham (aka Canadian bacon)!!!
The calzones are stuffed with delicious cheese & your choice of ingredients. I recommend the sausage with mushroom. The flavors just melt together in your mouth!
It’s family owned by this awesome Italian family, you feel like you’re in their kitchen when you are there! It’s fun and feisty and they love to entertain, especially children! There is an older guy, white hair, black mustache, he’s probably the head honcho-​who will toss the pizza dough all around and do tricks in the air with it to make children smile and laugh, it’s ADORABLE! It made me smile and laugh! And then one time he asks us if we want to pay twice, we say No? And he says the classic «ThenGETOUTAHERE!» Line and we fell in love instantly and tell everyone the story all the time! It was hilarious!
There is one waiter there, white male, early 20’s, that needs to learn better customer service skills. Thankfully everyone else there makes up for his ignorance.
We bring EVERYONE who is visiting Colorado to this location. Period, done deal, every time. YOU MUST EAT HERE AND EXPERIENCE THIS GOLD!!! They’re closed on Sunday’s.

Best pizza ever ! The salad is cold and fresh, the pizza is hot and crisp! Must try if your in Broomfield.

Best pizza ever in my entire life. Anyone that says otherwise is literally insane or they Just don’t know pizza. Best ingredients, so flavorful, and I seriously have never found better across the country.

Pizza is okay, not as good as NY style. The owner is a total dick. I would often go at lunch and pick up a few slices to go. They get mad if you ask for a box or bag for your pizza. I guess they expect you to just hold it on a paper plate while you drive? Idiots. Went there for the last time on Tuesday. Owner was a complete rude asshole. Never again will I give them my hard earned money to be treated so poorly. I suggest you do the same.

Gotta love the Proverbial «hole in wall» places. You can certainly tell this is a single family owned place, but I visit a restaurant for the food, not the owners. After reading some previous reviews, I really don’t care if the owners are friendly or not, the food was great! New loved it & will most certainly be back for more!

If you’re looking for the best pizza in town come here! Who cares that the owners are not very charming;) I’ve been coming here for 15+ years and it’s still the best pizza (and pasta) ever.

The owner certainly didn’t attend charm school. If you can get past his guffness, the food has always been very good and consistent. The eggplant is very saucy, cheesy and tangy. My wife always gets the manicotti and is never disappointed. Pizza is probably not going to win awards in NY, but here in Broomfield, it’s pretty darn good. The atmosphere is varied depending on where you sit. The dining room in the back can be quiet, quaint and cozy. The front area has a Donkey Kong old style video game, and is usually loud and hectic. A fair chance you’ll see and hear the owners grandkids running around. In sum, it’s very family run, family feeling, usually good food, a little rough around the edges at times, and would have gotten 4 stars from me if the owner would embrace the power of please and thank you.

A coworker told me about this place, usually when I am seeking pizza I will go to Anthony’s or Abo’s. This place puts out some good New York style pie. I met my son here for dinner and he is an Anthony’s loyalist so I was anxious to hear his appraisal of this place.
The place was pretty busy with sit down customers and people waiting for their carryout. The place is quaint and comfortable and the service was good. The prices are decent we had 2 ice teas and a large 18″ pizza (½ mushrooms/​onions, ½ pepperoni) all for $ 25.00.
The pizza was real good, foldable, plenty of toppings and cheese that leaves a trail coming out of your mouth. My son said it’s a little better than Anthony’s and a cut above Abo’s. This will be a place I will go for dine in pizza. I saw the old guy everyone talks about but he stayed in the kitchen and behaved himself.
