Hand-pressed dough, thin, slightly scorched crusts, garden-fresh, housemade sauce, creamy ricotta and flavorful mozzarella, and a litany of fresh ingredients this is authentic Italian pizza served in brightly colored, artsy surrounds. Its a place where couples share bites of chocolate chip-studded cannolis, families devour seam-busting strombolis, and solo diners sidle up to the counter for plate spanning single slices of cheesy goodness. Virgilios parades 17 specialty pizzas that range from the House Favorite white pizza topped with ricotta, garlic, sausage, sundried tomatoes and spinach; to the Dean Martin with bacon, garlic and fresh basil. Beyond pizza are olive oil-slicked pinwheels stuffed with spinach, ricotta, garlic and mozzarella, doughy garlic knots, gobble-worthy calzones, spaghetti and meatballs and oven-hot heros. The clamorous happy hour, which runs from 3pm-6pm daily, flaunts great deals on wines and beer.

We drive 30 minutes just for Virgilios pizza.....BEST CRUST, FRESHEST INGREDIENTS, Have lived in Brooklyn, Connecticut and New Jersey and Virgilio's is the best! My husband always gets the meat lovers, we always split garlic knotts (melt in your mouth) and I've tried several diff pizzas, salads, never have been disappointed!

Go to Virgilios!
By DawnPMal on 01/29/2009
Since we discovered Virgilio's shortly after they opened, we have been there an average of 3-4 times per month. (we try not to think about the arteries!) A few people have said Virgilio is grumpy, but he is very hard-working. Last week, we saw him being very patient with a party who was 45 minutes late, and he had held his only large table open for them. What owner wouldn't be put off by that? I have a hard time ordering anything but the pizza, but my husband is always looking for the best lasagna, and thinks he's found it here. I don't know NY pizza, but I know what I like, and we drive 25 minutes to get there. MMMMMM.....

Best NY Piza In Denver!!!!

If you want the real deal you must try Virgiio's Pizzeria. This little place rocks. The pizza and garlic knots put this in the top 3 in my life. The crust may be the best ever. If you want true NY PIE then give Virgilio's a try it is the best that you will find in this state.

Obviously, you're probably from mid states or a place where people just dont understand quality pizza or it's like you said,uou live too far away, either the hills or the plains which then would explain to me your rating on this joint. You must of been having a bad day or pms' ing...........Big Lou
