When you want it the most There's no easy way out  Birthday Dinner  2 lb. Sausage & Hamburger Combination Mountain Pie w/ garlic
Mojo S.

Probably the best first experience trying a pizza I've ever had. Even my beloved New Haven style had its beginnings in a pizza joint that wasn't 100% authentic. But Beau Jo's the real deal--the real Colorado-made and born Mountain Pie. We thought every bite was amazing-and-a-half, from the great fresh toppings, to the light touches of sauce, and of course the honey-soaked bites at the end. Every taste was a joy, and every joy was one that lived up to the hype. The night's server was impeccable--on the ball, super friendly, and even gave helpful suggestions throughout the night. Even her attempts to upsell, which I normally chafe at, were subtle and not in-your-face like most places. And while we didn't take most of them, it only felt like saying no to a brainstorm and not a pre-gamed question like they do with every customer. The ambience was perfect as well. Lots of room and a good flow to a food joint goes a long way to establish that vibe of a local place being comfy and energetic at the same time. This place and I guess regular crowd gave off nothing but welcoming energy. I'm coming back. Of course I am. This is a place that Scotch likes, so how could I not?

The stuffed mushrooms
Angelee C.

Oh honey, pull up a chair because we are feasting on feelings today. Let's start with the star of the show: THE PIZZA. They are famous for it. YES BABY! Now that's how you work a runway of rolled butter crust. That crunch? Delicate yet dangerous. And the meat, oh sweetheart, there was enough on that pie to make a cardiologist break into a light jog. A triumphant, greasy, gorgeous mess. But then, tragedy struck. Ugh, the stuffed mushrooms. Oh my. Oh my. No sizzle, no pizzazz, just a sad little fungi funeral. Slimy? Crusty? Slightly burnt? Darling, that's not stuffed mushrooms--that's a cry for help. Admittedly, I am a bit of a snob on mushrooms; someone has to uphold standards in this world and clearly it wasn't the kitchen tonight. Now let's cleanse our palates: the salad. YES BAB-- almost YES BABY! Cranberry walnut perfection. A sweet, crunchy little symphony. A salad that makes you wink at yourself in the takeout window reflection. But then the betrayal: WHERE. WAS. THE. CHICKEN. I ordered it. I paid for it. And yet it was absent like a deadbeat parent in a made-for-TV drama. Unforgivable. Overall? A rollercoaster. A culinary soap opera. Highs so high, lows so low you needed emotional support. Would I go back? For that butter crust? Meh, just feeling meh.

Honey to-go. Yes please!
Terry C.

What a nice surprise! Beau Jo's Arvada was a real treat. My hubby and I wanted to try authentic Colorado pizza on our roadtrip from San Diego, CA, and Beau Jo's came through! Our waitress Kelly was a delight--super friendly, informative, and efficient. And the pizza with a lil' yummy honey drizzled on the crust...who knew?! Everything is freshly made that day with top-quality ingredients, and it shows. Give 'em a try, and ask for Kelly. She'll make your experience even better!

Adult Mac & Cheese

Delicious food great atmosphere and great service! This was our first time at Beau Jo's since we moved to the Denver area. Highly recommend!

Meatball Skillet
Patricia H.

Average. I would say decent prices overall but I would much rather go to a different pizza place like white pie that truly sets itself apart. Meatball skillet app is really good though

Went to this spot on a Saturday early afternoon for pickup. This is one of the best food spots in…read moreLakewood. Was greeted by the owner, and just the fact she was there told me all I needed to know. Small but cozy space in a strip mall setting, I will probably do a kid free date night here once they get the alcohol going. I rarely find restaurants that exceed expectations on food, service and ambiance. This is one. I ordered the chicken piccata, works pizza, penne bolognese and salad. All were top notch, my kids actually cleaned their plates, and the pizza may be the best in town. When I reheated it, the crust was optimally crispy. I will eat here again, soon

We were looking for some yummy food, not too far from the house and saw ignazios had some great…read morereviews so we decided to check it out. They were pretty busy at around 5:30 on a Saturday evening and we were lucky enough to snag a table since they also take reservations and some were being held. The service was great, she gave us her recommendations and was very very patient while we all decided what plates to share. They give you some small plain bread knots when you sit down and had no problem, giving us a refill, even a side of marinara sauce for dipping when we asked. We started with the Caprese appetizer, which was fresh and delicious lightly, garnished with the balsamic glaze that sets the flavor off, not too overpowering. We shared three different pastas - the penne rustica, the shrimp and artichoke, and the pesto tortellini. The rustica was definitely the best, it had such a depth of flavor, and the sauce was a perfect rosé of creamy tomato, with the vegetables helping set off the textures and flavors even more. The other two pastas were good, but I wouldn't prioritize ordering them again, the pesto tortellini was so rich and creamy, but lacked any pesto flavor, which was surprising since it was vivid and green, and so visually appealing. The shrimp and artichoke was good, but didn't allow me, I felt like the artichoke needed more seasoning or something to bring it out a little in the sauce and pasta mix. The owner Nancy was such a sweetheart. She was so attentive and came over to us multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed. Next time I'll be trying the Bolognese :)

I love this neighborhood gem…read more I have been coming here for years and this is my first recommendation for people new to the area. Everything is always delicious It can be a little loud, a little crowded, long line, but it's worth the wait and you don't have to wait long. I was sorry to hear that they recently had a fire. I hope they can remodel and open soon. It is a little suspicious that so many great local restaurants are experiencing fire and damage lately, I hope it's just random bad luck and nothing more nefarious.

The "Restaurant Kid" Litmus Test: Parisi Passes with Flying Colors…read more On my first day in Denver, a childhood friend took me to lunch at Parisi, though he was admittedly a bit apprehensive. Having grown up with Italian heritage on both sides and parents who owned an Italian restaurant, I am notoriously hard to please when it comes to authentic cuisine. He was worried I'd be overcritical; instead, I was completely charmed. Located in a quaint, quiet neighborhood, Parisi offers the kind of authenticity that is rare to find. Here is why it earned a perfect score from a tough critic: The Main Course: The Tagliatelle Ragu was balanced and traditional--exactly what you want from a high-caliber kitchen. The "Woodfire" Factor: The aroma of the woodfire pizza oven hits you the moment you walk in. While we opted to eat inside rather than on the lovely patio, those scents alone convinced me that I have to return specifically for the pizza next time. The Grand Finale: I had to finish the meal with my favorite, Stracciatella gelato. It was the perfect creamy, artisanal end to a fantastic lunch. The service was seamless, the ambiance was inviting, and the food spoke for itself. If you're looking for a spot that feels like a true slice of Italy in the middle of Denver, this is it. I'll definitely be back to tackle that pizza menu!

It had been some time since I was here. I came with my husband and son for dinner on a week night…read more There is plenty of parking available. We were welcomed in and seated. The decor is charming. Our server, Holly, brought us our requested water. My husband ordered bread and butter for the table. He chose the split plate of spaghetti and ravioli. He requested Bolognese instead of marinara. The meals came with salads and he decided to get the Italian dressing. My son chose ranch with his salad and ordered the fettuccini alfredo adding parmesan chicken on top. I chose the fettuccini and meatballs with marinara. I selected Italian dressing for my salad. The salads came on cold plates which made the veggies seem even crisper than they were. It was more than just the usual side salad with the addition of garbanzo beans. We all enjoyed the freshness. My dish was ample and tasty. The meatballs are fork and knife size. The marinara had a bright tomato flavor. Overall enjoyable and enough to bring home for lunch the next day. In fact, we all needed a container. Holly boxed everything up for us. This was a pleasant evening out.

My husband and I went here to celebrate his birthday and Father's Day this afternoon. We were promptly seated without a reservation at one of the table on the patio to enjoy the fresh air. We started off with an order of garlic knots and Italian /chicken lettuce wraps. We asked about the honey dipping sauce and were told it was on a spicy side, so we skipped paying the extra $2 for it. However, our waitress wanted us to try it, so the honey was on the house. And, boy, that honey dip sauce was indeed very spicy! And the wraps? It was delicious! Fresh cherry tomatoes with diced chicken breast and bean plus seasonings. We loved the dish and finished everything on the plate except for the 3 sauces. We ordered our main entrees after finishing our appetizers. I had the Linguini & Clams, while my husband ordered the Rigatoni & Sausage. What a disappointment my Linguini & Clams dish was to me. The lack of flavor from one of my favorite dishes made me sad. I was looking forward to it. Adding hot pepper flakes, then black pepper, and the worst was adding salt. If this dish were to be prepared correctly, I would have been happy to eat it all. However, I gave up after adding my own spices. The Rigatoni & Sausage dish? OMG, out of this world! The red sauce with the meat sauce smothering the pasta was one of the best dishes I've ever tasted. I'd wished I ordered that dish, but at least I was able to try a couple of bites. When the bill came, our waitress said she took off the clam dish because I didn't like it. THIS, this! is how they gained a new customer! I'll come back and will give them my business. Thank you for treating this customer right and making sure my eating experience will be different the next time I dine here.

Ambiance and food were fine, but not amazing. Generously rating as "ok" mostly due to lackluster…read moreservice. The hostess and our server were casual to the point of being almost rude. After entering the building, the hostess approached with a tepid "what's up." Our server acted like taking our order was a favor, and she was so eager to walk away I had to get her attention TWICE to finish ordering what I wanted (hey, can we also get an order of pepperoni rolls, HEY, can I also get an IPA). Zero attention paid to water and drinks that needed replenishing. The manager needs to pay more attention to the level of service and professionalism of the staff, a lot more. This may be why they tack on a mandatory 20% surcharge with a little lecture on the receipt about how it provides a living wage, because I doubt they'd ever get tips at that level with this style of service. Or maybe the service is that way because they don't feel any need to work for a gratuity. Under the circumstances, calling this a "hospitality" charge was just plain tacky. I didn't feel like there was any hospitality, certainly not enough to warrant a 20% fee.
