Lil’ Ricci’s

Great NY style pizza. Make sure to try the garlic knots and hot knots (garlic knots stuffed with jalapeño peppers).
They have a great family deal Sunday — Thursday. $ 28 a family sized salad, bread sticks, garlic knots, a large pizza with two toppings, 4 cookies, 4 ice creams, and 4 drinks.

Good as always. We always have a good experience here, but tonight seemed especially good. The service was good. The staff was friendly, prompt and attentive. We ordered the greek salad, pizza & lasagna and it was all delicious and came out quickly. We honestly have never been disappointed with Lil’ Ricci’s.

Wow just called to have a pizza delivered and they do not deliver on Friday’s. Haven’t had their pizza and I doubt I ever will. I’ve never heard of this before either you do or don’t but to not deliver on Fridays is whack.

We love Lil Ricci’s. The food is quick, plentiful, and delicious. My children love the white pizza. The California pasta is incredible. The calzones are huge.
Bryant is one of the best servers in town, and is always consistently helpful and friendly.
This is a great place to bring family and friends.

We are new to the area and we were looking for an easy, reasonably priced, delicious, family meal. This place was perfect, offering a good Monday-​Thursday family meal deal. The food was awesome, the service was amazing, and the price was very reasonable. We were extremely impressed!

Really good food, one of the nicest waiters you’ll ever meet, GREAT value for kids. The calzones are awesome, meatball hero is good, pizzas aren’t amazing and are better than you’d get at a standard pizza place.
Kids love it here. They get a great meal with a drink and fresh baked cookie and ice cream for a great price.
Fun local shop.

Service is terrible. Food is mediocre at best. This place needs to call the «restaurant impossible» show for help on running a business effectively! I will NOT be giving this place my business ever again!

I absolutely love Lil Ricci’s! The pizza is so cheesy, doughy, & delicious. They cook it to warm, hot, tasty perfection. If they change a single ingredient I’ll go bananas on them immediately. I just love their pizza so much! You have got to go & try it.

Barely one star. This place is located near the Edge Hockey rink in Littleton. During a tournament for our child, the team had a break and chose this place for lunch. I’ve never gone to a place and had the workers act offended that we wanted to eat there. We filled the entire patio with our party. The waitress came out and said she would only accept pizza orders with a party our size (this is what we came for, but she was very defensive). We all ordered all you can eat pizza. The team coaches served drinks and pizza to our party. The waitress wouldn’t allow us to pay ahead of time and complained when we wanted to use debit cards. The waitress, who really didn’t serve us at all made very loud comments about not receiving a tip as we eventually talked her into allowing us to pay separately.
That’s the «service».
Sometimes, service can be overlooked if the food outshines it. Not the case here. The pizza was greasy and toppings all slipped off as the pieces were pulled from the pie.

The pizza here was delicious. I cannot count the many times I have stopped in for lunch here to indulge in there New York style slices. If you are in the area, it’s a must have! If you are looking for a place to treat your family, this is the place. great cozy atmosphere as well where you feel like a true New Yorker. I advise you order more then one slice, you won’t regret it.

It’s not the best pizza on the planet, but it’s pretty good and a lot better than Anthony’s. I recommend if you want NY pizza in the Ken Caryl area.

I’ve dinned here at least a half dozen times, and probably twice that as «carry out». The food is always good, I’ll give them that. However, the service and atmosphere has always been terrible. Every time.
The dinning room is cold and uninviting, crammed with too many tables, and much too loud due to the close quarters and a chaotic corner reserved for video games, pinball, and candy machines. More like eating at Chucky Cheese than a neighborhood restaurant.
The most unrelaxing and frustrating dinning experience ever. If you don’t mind sitting shoulder to shoulder, and have to shout over the table next to you to carry on a conversation then this place is for you, the food isn’t bad.

Summered here for 2.5 mos – ate at LR’s 4x… great pizza and superb service. pepperoni/​sausage combo was our fav.

How terribly disappointing. Ordered pizza, 2 dinner salads, and kids ravioli. People who came in 5 min after us sitting near us received their pizza and salads before us. The single man who sat behind us received his pizza 10 minutes later. Another 20 minutes out comes our pizza, but its wrong. Not a complicated pizza, artichoke hearts, mushrooms, onions, garlic, and on half tomatoes and pepperonci. No tomatoes, no pepperonci, but sausage on the whole thing. Don’t get me wrong, sausage is a good thing, but not what I wanted tonight. Flag the waitress down. She put in a new order and took the wrong pizza back. Then she decided we could keep the wrong pizza while waiting. Probably should have eaten that one. 30 minutes later out comes the pizza. Hubby kept his tongue in check, but we’d had enough. Asked them to box it up to go. Waitress said she’d give us a discount, but never saw it. $ 36 for waiting 90+ minutes for pizza 3 sodas and a kids meal. If there was a discount it must have been 1%. There wasn’t even a sincere apology.
The taste was okay, but next time it’s pizza nite it’ll be the local competitor or the chain. Flavors just as good, but service and price are better.
Good luck with your orders.

Such a great place! We have been going for years and it is always great — definitely our favorite pizza in Colorado!

I was born and raised in the Chicago area and with that being said, 90% of the time I crave pizza, I want a nice thin crispy pizza.
I tend to notice that even in the Denver area «thin crust» is still thicker than what I would like. Lil Ricci’s on Ken Caryl is the best thin crust pizza I have yet to find in the Denver area. The pizza flavor itself is nothing special, however to me, the consistency of the thin crust for a change totally makes up for it.
I’ve been looking for a local good casual hangout spot with decent food. The interior is very sports bar-​ish with almost a late 90’s flair to it. Much like an upscale dive bar. I dig it.
Looks like it has outdoor seating for when the weather is nice. Lil Ricci’s sits right at the base of the Ken Caryl mountain area, so it’s a nice view too. Easy access right off 470 so this would be a GREAT place to grab a bite and a brew after a day of skiing or shredding.
Highlights:
Pizza by the slice $ 3 — It’s a giant slice of pizza, plus only .40 cents per topping if you choose to spruce it up.
7 days a week happy hour — 3pm — 7pm.
They also looked like they had some pretty good deals during Bronco’s games.
Bottom line:
The garlic knots are great, the pizza is good, the beer is cheap, and the price is right. I’m not a fortune teller, but I can totally see myself in the future at Lil Ricci’s chowin’ down on some pizza and knots with a cold beer after a good day of skiing.

Decided to give this place a shot and I picked up a pizza in the way home from work. I thought it was good! Of course it pales in comparison to the east coast but its relatively tasty regardless. Took a little bit to wait and pick up but otherwise easy. We’ll order from them again but try a different topping combo.

Went in for lunch. Got 2 slices and a half order of garlic knots. The garlic knots are not good, the pizza is average, the waitstaff is nice. Not a bad place to eat if you’re out that way.

This is my second review. Still just average pizza. The breadsticks tasted like dish soap. Just had the chicken parm entrée. Ugh… Chopped up chicken with barely any breading and not fried. They hide their horrible job of an entrée by loading it with cheese. I don’t know what is up this place, but they need to figure out a somewhat decent recipe for their food selections. Damn… Maybe we’ve been too spoiled with living back East, Arizona, Boulder, Denver.
I miss Cosmos, Fatty Js, Abos, Mama’s pizza, Marco’s. I regret not going to Anthony’s, like we usually do.
Just gave away all of coupons the kid from Boulder sold to us raise money for whatever he was raising money for this past summer.
Still like the bartenders and the beer. Can’t screw those two things up.

Decent pizza. Not over the top good but not bad either.
