    Have to disagree. I've been going to Rico's for years (fair pizza, but pizza) and decided to try Franks last week. Yuck, dried crust, bland.

    New York Jonnys is decent but not great. Many moons ago I remember going to place called Abo's which IIRC was really good, but its 10+ years.

    Buddy at work loves Perry's Pizza, never been as its on the east side of town.

    It really is hard to find a decent pie here in town.

    Awesome, Franks was a hangout in high school. Carls on 38th isn't half bad, Edgewater Inn used to be good but I have heard it has taken a dive.

    Find a Nick & Willys, great built to order bake at home.

    I still believe the key to a good pie in the metro area, is to not try and find something to replicate or compare to pizza back east, because you'll be disappointed every time. That is why I tend to veer towards places like Beaujo's and Doo drop inn. The taste is pretty much exclusive to Colorado, and does not attempt to be something it is not, but is very tasty!

    Being from NY state, saying "I want NY Pizza" is like saying "I want a rifle"... There are at least a zillion different kinds of pizza in NY!! I'm from the Buffalo area, and the pizza from there is TOTALLY different from the pizza from the Big Apple. Sheet pizzas were 'the thing' in Buffalo/Western NY area. Hard to find out here. There used to be a shop here in the Springs, run by some brothers from Buffalo (they had all Sabres stuff in their shop) and they made a killer sheet. Not sure what happened to them.

    And don't get me started on wings. Anchor Bar in Buffalo, home of the "Buffalo Wing". 'nuff said.

    I was surprised at how good the new Dion's pizza in COS is. Reminds me of Nick and Joe's pizza from out east.

    I also really like Cheesy Lee's pizza up in Estes Park.

    Well I still like it. But I would like to try Rico's, where is that at?

    buffalo would not be the go to pizza spot....... "ny"pie to me is nyc(all 5 boroughs) and exit 80 and up nj(and parts of conn oddly enough).......hand stretched or tossed dough thin crust..... foldable with that nice droop in the middle usually sold by the slice.......thats pizza to me nothing else

    i think hurly nailed it if your not in the tri state your not getting pizza once you can get over that you can enjoy some of the stuff out here but most of it is par baked trash

    ill post some pics up of the pizza im making for lunch if it comes out halfway decent

    When we lived in Rochester, friends of ours (from NYC) owned a restaurant and they provided great pizza!! It all depends on what you like & what you're used to.

    Hmmmm, if cofi's pizza turns out decent, then we all need a little roadtrip out East!
