Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta

What a great surprise! We just wandered in looking for a place to eat, and were surprised by the quality and flavor of the food, generous proportions, and great service! Fresh toppings on the pizza were excellent, the salad was full of lots of goodies. I love the quiet atmosphere in there too — we get plenty of noise at home, and so many other restaurants bombard you with noise and tv screens. I appreciated it being just quiet so we could talk. The service was excellent too — everyone was so friendly and quick to bring us our order. We will definitely be coming back and telling our friends about this gem!

What great pizza! I am originally from Brooklyn NYC and this is the closet thing to NYC pizza I have found in my 3 years in Colorado. I will continue to eat at this place as it is clean the staff are friendly and my orders are processed quickly.

Came here on my lunch break and despite it being busy my pizza came out in about five minutes. The guys who work the counter are super friendly and give awesome service.

This place is great. Always awesome customer service and definitely my favorite pizza in Colorado.

FILTHY!!! Men’s restroom was an absolute disgrace for a restaurant, maybe a rough bar, but not a restaurant. The floor and drain were covered in dirt with the drain partly clogged with dirt. Graffiti was written on the towel dispenser, trash can, and mirror. The toilet paper holder was dislodged from the wall.
An impression like that, doesn’t do much for one’s
appetite and expectations.
The meatball sandwich’s meatballs were dry and over cooked. Sandwich had a bare minimum of marina sauce and the additional sauce that I requested was very bland lacking in flavor.
I see no reason to go back again after this experience.

No complaints here! Certainly satisfied with this visit, and also being our first time at this location. The gentleman at the counter, with whom we assume was the Manager was so informative in regards to the menu and every little detail of it. He was extremely courteous and polite and even offered us water while we waited. The wait time for our to-​go pizza was just as explained and they even came outside to get us when it was ready. Once at home the pizza is perfectly made as requested and full of flavor. We will definitely be returning!

Called in to place a take-​out order and was told that it would be ready in 15 minutes. Awesome!
I proceeded to drive to the restaurant and arrived right around the 20 minute mark.
When I arrived, I got in line behind a young couple placing an order for a pizza. When it was my turn, the gal behind the counter looked me up and down as I walked up. Well, now I’m uncomfortable…
«Four more minutes,» she said. I’m a patient person, I didn’t mind at all.
I sat down and waited… Waited… Waited some more. The couple in front of me had their pizza brought out to them. Then another couple came in and picked up their order and left.
I leaned around the corner and asked her how much longer she thought it may be and she looked me straight in the eye, picked up the phone and dialed an outbound call.
I went up to the desk and patiently waited for her phone call to be over. I asked again how much longer it might be and I stated that if I had known it would take this long, I would’ve called in much earlier.
She huffed and went into the back and surprise, surprise… My pizza was ready now, and it only took 53 minutes to be exact!
I used to be in the service industry, so I get it if you’re busy or if you’re not having the best day. I just expect alot more out of you Anthony’s Pizza, you certainly lost my business.

I downgraded my review by a star because the last two times the pies were not cooked all the way through. Otherwise it’s still a good pizza when it’s cooked right.

Came here on my lunch hour after a lovely visit to CenturyLink next door and saw their lunch special board. 1 huge cheese slice, a small salad (or a second slice), and a drink for 6 bucks, can’t beat that! I’m not normally a big fan of NY style but this was pretty good. Salad was better than expected, good quality lettuce for this type of place.
I didn’t have any issues with the customer service, I was in and out nice and quick. I can see though how people have had issues, it’s clear that it’s a bunch of kids working at a pizza place and don’t necessarily care for their job. But I had no issues, definitely would return.

I’m not sure this place deserves such a low rating. It’s a chain, and for the price point the quality of food, customer service, and cleanliness of the restaurant are right on. I’ve been to several Anthony’s locations throughout the front range and I found this place to be consistent with all the others I’ve visited.

great pizza, very new york

This place is awesome. Everyone was really cool and it was the best pizza I’ve ever had. And, all the guys who work there are totally hot, especially the drivers. I always order delivery ever since a muscular and strapping young lad came to my front door. I would highly recommend this place, and for everyone before me who left negative reviews, maybe it’s not the service that’s lacking, maybe it’s you.

I would give this location ZERO stars if I could. I like Anthony’s okay, but the few times I have been to this location, the employees don’t seem to care. They let me stand by the counter waiting to order for several minutes! The girl came to the counter & stared @ me, I placed my order & she said almost nothing… no «thank you» or «have a nice day» & the expeditor guy dropped my plate of pizza in front of me walked away… very unfriendly. The employees don’t seem to care.

I really wanted to like this place. Gluten free pizza that delivers? Yes, please. But what I received cannot be called pizza. It was one of the most disappointing meals I have ever had. Absolutely no flavor. Not in the paper-​thin crust, not in the sauce, and not in the toppings. My husband got a regular pizza and said the exact same thing. No flavor whatsoever. Also, the gf crust was pretty much a tortilla. Save your money and go to Beau Jos across the street.

Nothing too fancy but a fantastic pizza joint for slices. Can’t commend on their delivery or full pies, but their jumbo slices for lunch are freaking delicious! Great 2-​slice + drink lunch deal as well, which makes me want pizza every day for lunch! It’s hard resisting the urge for another slice…

I ordered my pizza BEFORE I read all the reviews here, so I’m sort of sorry I did.
But the deliver order was fast and easy, and they were here in 20 minutes!
The pizza was delicious (plain-​old pepperoni), but the wings did not appear to be fully cooked and smelled funny. Not sure I’m going to eat them. I covered them in hot sauce and put them in a 350-​degree oven.
I was buzzed when I ate the pizza, so my rating is only semi-​reliable. It should probably be 3 stars, but when you’re buzzed, ALL pizza tastes delicious.
If I have to get rushed to the hospital because of the wings, I’ll get back to you.

Food is a hit or miss. The employees are… questionable?
I walked in with a friend at about 8:45PM seeing as their hours were 9:30PM or later and stood at the counter for a good 2 minutes or so with no one in sight. An employee came out from the back and headed towards the bathroom and heard hacking in the bathroom. When he came out, his hair was drenched in water and watched as he ran his hands through it while heading towards the kitchen. And employee finally came out, ignored us and cleaned the area by the cash register. When he finally acknowledged us, he grunts and says that they’re closed. We sort of thought we was joking with us but as soon as he said it, he continued cleaning, we looked at the time and told him the sign said open and continued to ignore us.
I don’t think i’ll return to this joint again. Guess i’ll have to find a new place to eat lunch at.

New York style not because it’s thin crust — because the customer service is rude and/​or short and/​or non-​existent. Just like my experience in the Big Apple with people not having any d*mn manners.
I couldn’t even get a «hi» or «hello» (it’s called a greeting!) from the punk behind the register. And as I stood there waiting for my one slice I noticed him and another punk were too busy fussing over a smartphone to do anything else.
Older guy (and that’s a relative term) was too exasperated from a call-​in order to see that my slice had come out and was sitting on the counter while he went into the back for something. He came out and handed me the bag without a word until an insincere «thank you» fell out of my mouth, reeking with the same bad attitude as his «you’re welcome».
C’mon, folks. $ 2.70 (with tax) for a cheese slice is a deal, but not enough of one to put up with the ‘tude from the employees. I should have continued on in my travels and gone to the new pizza place on 38^th Ave. They have slices there and maybe even a smile.

Not unlike millions of Americans, I have been to countless pizza parlors/​restaurants and while most share many similarities, some stand out among the crowd. Well, Anthony’s stands out too; as THE WORST experience I have ever had purchasing a pizza. It deserves a ZERO star rating and I wish Unilocal would allow that distinction for this lead medal winner.
The evening I went to pick up a pizza the owner/​manager was arguing in front of me with another manager/​senior representative about time clock punches for the employees, he reprimanded another male employee in public for something-​or-​other, all the while, I was completely ignored by every staff member in the establishment including the owner/​manager and two young women who were supposed to be working the counter. One of them actually walked past me to build pizza boxes.
I sat six feet away from the counter on the bench they have facing the register for almost 30 minutes, expecting at any time that someone would acknowledge my presence; mind you, it was not the least bit busy and it was the dinner hour. Amusingly, behind the counter, they have a sign that tells the customers to be patient because «we do not prepare your order in a New York minute.» I may be paraphrasing, but you catch my drift.
I decided to be patient because I was certain someone would ask if I had placed an order or if I would like to place an order. HA! No dice, so I approached the counter to announce I was there to pick up my phone order vs. arbitrarily loitering and staring at them which must be common because either they didn’t notice or care.
Abysmal service aside, the pizza was a 5 out of 10 at BEST. The word: «style» is overused in American vernacular, but is supposed to refer to something particular, distinct or characteristic. Their «NY style pizza» resembles it from a distance, but falls woefully short in all respects. I grew up on NY pizza and realize how difficult it is to reproduce those results at altitude, but it has been done and done perfectly at a few Denver/​Boulder restaurants. I suppose anyone can claim anything they want about their business, but these guys really have some balls.
Tastes vary, so judge for yourself and then go and have a real slice of NY style pizza; the difference will surprise you.

It’s been over four months since my last review and I just have to add that NOTHING about the loutish employees at this place has changed. They are still as grim and joyless as ever, but it seems they’ve hired a few more of these zombies to take our money, not say «thank you» and proceed to heat up your slice to the temperature of Venus even though you ask them — again and again — NOT TO HEAT IT UP TOO HOT, PLEASE!
Oh, and if no one is watching the lame hockey game, why do you have the volume of ALL of the TVs turned up to 11?
Your dining area is supposed to be for those of us who are dining, and our dining enjoyment. When will these places get the idea that a dining room is no place to be subjected to heavy metal, screaming TVs and/​or FM radio and it’s obnoxious commercials?!
Turn off the TV or radio, buy a CD player, get a better caliber of appropriate dining area music, play it at a respectable volume.
Simple enough?
