Pizzeria Lui - Pizza restaurant in Lakewood - 5380 W Mississippi Ave, USA

Omg! This place blew my mind and restore my faith in the pizza scene in Denver. After having many other pizzas in Colorado I lost hope for getting a good slice of pizza, then my husband from nyc kept searching for a good one then finally found one. The first time we tried the pizza, we did take out, and I didn’t really care for it probably because it was cold by the time I ate it. Then we decided to go eat in person. Highly recommend doing that. The ingredients are fresh and all homemade. You can tell from the first bite. I get a little uneasy stomach after eating pizza but this place gave me such an easy feeling in my stomach. I usually think that has to do with the ingredients are being fresh and clean. As soon as I finished the whole pie I kept thinking that I don’t want this place to be too famous. It was that good. However, good business needs to thrive and this pizza place definitely deserves the best pizza award in Denver area.

Easily some of the best pizza in Colorado. A must try. The gluten structure in the dough is beautifully developed, leading to a chewy, light bread with a beautiful char on the outside. Sauce to cheese ratio is on point, something you don’t see a lot these days. Beautiful bright and slightly sweet tomato sauce, wonderful cheese pull and not smothered in grease. The right amount of everything, including fresh and colorful veggies. Service was kind and attentive in this quaint, cozy spot. If you care about quality food, and killer pizza made with care, eat at Pizzeria Lui.

How did I not know about Pizzeria Lui until recently? We ordered two pies. One red sauce and one with pesto. I usually don’t stray from red pies but man I’m I glad we did. This may be the best pizza I’ve ever had anywhere. The crust alone is amazing but then the toppings send it over the top. Fresh, delicious ingredients used perfectly. I can’t wait to go back. Not sure I’ll make it a week before returning even with the 30 minute drive.

Great pizza spot in Denver, with room of improvement to the atmosphere in the restaurant. Firstly, the pizza is very good, i got the Margherita and mamasita (replacing sausage with mashroms). Both of them were tasty, but I preferred the Margherita. Also not sure why pork is the only meat available. Secondly, the staff was very friendly but I was told the pizza will take 60 min but it ended up taking 75 min. Thirdly, the seating area is limited and the resturant design is quite outdated. But overall still giving it 5 stars for the quality of the pizzas.

Exactly what I've been looking for as a Philly transplant! Definitely best Neopolitan in Denver! Been here 3 times in the past week or so!

I would rate the margherita pizza a 3/5. Pizza was paper thin and crispy, which was good, but the California tomatoes they use imparted an acidic taste without the necessary sweetness, and the dough was exceptionally neutral. Margherita needs a tiny bit of sweetness. I usually finish the crust with pizzas but here I definitely threw it away. Just the whole thing was rather “boring” and I left unsatisfied. I definitely prefer Marco’s to date for Margherita. This pizza would be great with toppings, but I think a ton of pizzas make up shortfalls that way. I don’t plan to return.

Killer pizza. First, I’ve had in Denver but best I’ve had in past 5 year’s. Nothing fancy but still damn fine pizza.

this place is it. the flavors are unique and pair perfectly with their unforgettable crust. staff is friendly, drinks for your preference - and tunes are the cherry on top. great spot fellas.
