Our date night at Cart-Driver was divine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere and vibe is warm and cozy, but upscale.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Cocktails were excellent - we had an espresso martini and The Floor is Guava. The Floor is Guava was fruity and flavorful, but not too sweet. We started with some east coast oysters - they tasted very fresh and perfect amount of brine. I loved using the house hot sauce with them and wish I had a bottle for home. Next was the farm greens salad, which was so bright and balanced. The breadcrumbs topped it off right! Perfect starter to have ahead of pizza. We ordered the Peppers pizza and Meatball pizza. You can't go wrong with either, but Peppers was both of our favorite with the heat from the Calabrian chili. While we loved everything, it's worth noting it took 40 minutes to get our pizzas. While this was surprising for thin crust, the menu said they like to course things out for the experience, so beware if you are in a hurry. read more

We drove to Cart Driver with a group of seven adults for a 9 PM weekday reservation. No issues with street parking at that time of day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated at a corner table, which fit us perfectly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Started with some greens (their Farm Greens Salad). Tasty and piled high with fun, crunchy toppings. We ordered 4 pizzas which was the right amount for us. The pizza crust is really nice - thin and chewy. Plenty of flavor from the sourdough starter and char, but you can eat it with some sauce if you want to. My favorites factoring uniqueness and flavor were the Pickle (white sauce pizza with pickles - an odd pairing that works), Clam (comes with pancetta), and Mushroom + Sausage. I thought the Cart-Driver was ok (a bit kale overload). One odd thing about this place is they only slice the pizza into six slices. We asked in a few different ways to see if they could slice it into eight for more convenient sharing but were shut down. I'm sure they had some rationale for it, but I certainly couldn't come up with a reason. We had to awkwardly cut it ourselves and that didn't work well. Overall, aside from the pizza slicing issue, we had a pretty good experience here. read more

Cart-Driver Lohi - Peppers pizza - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I lived around the corner from this place for a summer, and I tried the clam pizza once. Five years later and I was back in town and one of my few requests was to go get this same pizza. It was just as good as I remembered. My friend and I sat at the bar and had great, quick service. We ordered the clam pizza, buffalo chicken pizza, and some drinks. Everything was just as good as I remembered. The restaurant was busy- even on a Wednesday night, so be sure to make a reservation if you want a table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is very clean and lively.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Makes for a great dinner out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Have been to the OG Cart-Driver in downtown Denver previously. I think the OG has a better handle on pizza than here at the Lohi location. Yes, the food is good here at the Lohi location and yes, the salad and olives were divine, but I was just so underwhelmed with the market pizza which was the special of the day. It was not as advertised so I would recommend against it. Service also left a bit to be desired. Our server never came back to check on us after our food came out and I was in need of napkins and water. Happy Hour is literally an hour from 4-5 with only a few options on the HH menu. So my Aperol Spritz was only $14 instead of $15. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a cute set up, but left with a meh taste in my mouth.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Good thing we ordered the chicken liver mousse (which was actually pretty good), because our pizzas took over 45 minutes (!!!) to come out. The crust seemed a little underdone, and not super flavorful. I'm usually a crust lover, but I didn't finish these. The clam pizza was decent, but DO NOT get the market pizza. It was lacking in flavor but even worse the pesto was a vibrant neon-ish green color and tasted like lawn clippings. read more

Visiting from out of town and filling time, I enjoyed a great visit. I enjoyed a mushroom pizza, and an old fashioned with Four Roses. The crew was very friendly, the food was delicious. The pizza reminded me of a very soft but crunchy saltine cracker and the olive oil cake had a wonderful lemon flavor. Thank you for a great visit read more

The good: Being from the northeast originally it is hard to come by pie and shellfish that meets my standards here in Colorado. With that being said i think the oysters we had were incredibly fresh and delicious. The bad: I booked this restaurant to celebrate my partner's 27th birthday as she loves pizza and italian food in general. As i was making the reservation i put in the notes that it was a birthday celebration and yet when we arrived i was disappointed to find out that not only do they not offer "bubbles" or a dessert to celebrate but not ONE person who touched our table wished her happy birthday. When i ordered dessert they couldn't even bother to put a candle in it. They did absolutely nothing to help celebrate her special occasion. I have worked in the restaurant industry for 15+ years. I've done everything from CDC, to serving, bartending, dishwashing, you name it - i don't expect much but when 2 pizzas, 4 drinks and 4 oysters cost $190 the least you can do is acknowledge the celebratory note listed on the reservation. The ugly: The pizza here is incredibly overpriced and overrated. Both pies we had were undercooked on the bottom. While the crust has a nice char to it the bottom was as pale as flour. The clam pizza had maybe 5 little neck clams on it which was sold to me at "MP" ($20+). The special pie of calabrian chile and peach had a great flavor profile yet was under cooked so the texture was far too soft to handle the weight of the toppings. TL;DR: better neapolitan pie exists in Denver for much less. The oysters were good but the lack of variety and accoutrements was underwhelming. MOST importantly the feeling of hospitality is little to none here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is a fast casual spot with fine dining prices.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Do not come here to celebrate anything special - you will be disappointed. read more

While visiting the area, a local said there was no good pizza to be found in Denver but I would say this pizza was pretty satisfying. Staff were friendly and it was a quick 5 minutes or so for the pizza to be grilled. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is in a shipping container and has a cozy interior.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I am a big fan of the taste of grilled pizza and their dough was just right - tasted great the next day as leftovers too. The tomato sauce had a vibrant taste and the cheese was good, although I think they probably could use even better mozzarella. It was a tad expensive ($18) for what was basically a personal-sized cheese pizza but other than that good experience. read more

One of my favorite happy hours in Denver. There is usually a small line just waiting for them to open for happy hour. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside and outside seating opens to really enjoy the spring, summer, fall weather.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The happy hour menu is good with lots of options for drinks and apps. I usually order off the regular menu for a pizza because their speciality pizzas are so good. Love a pickle pizza. The cannolis for dessert are awesome. They have a thin shell and the perfect amount of filler. read more

Went during HH (a literal hour from 4-5pm daily) and stayed for dinner. Ordered off both menus. We were a party of four. Half of us were very pleased with what we ordered, while the other half were disappointed and had food envy. I was fortunate to be in the first group. The happy hour white wine was a nice Pinot Grigio at a generous $8 pour. The chicken liver mousse had a nice spice with a touch of sweetness, with the seasonal mostarda on top, and was served with plenty of rosemary focaccia. After seeing the rave reviews for the Farm Greens Salad, I ordered it for the table to share--definitely a hit with the parm vinaigrette, pickled onions, and artichoke. My friend and I shared the mussels, a half-pound portion of some of the largest mussels I have seen. The salsa verde was a perfect compliment. Although friendly, our server didn't check on us as frequently as our table needed, but did meet my requests whenever I caught her attention. My disappointed friends ordered the pizza, which did not meet the hype. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is fun and lively, the remodel was great too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was friendly and attentive. The food, unfortunately, was not great, namely the pizza, which was supposed to be their thing. The dough is soggy, the crust doesn't rise well. While they use great ingredients and do everything from scratch, the fact that the pizza is this bad is unacceptable. We do love their oysters, the carbonara was good but came out warm vs being hot. The pizza and pasta were not timed well, so I finished my pasta while my husband was still waiting for his pizza, while they did warn us this would be the case, it's just unprofessional. read more

Solid pizza! But if you order online it'll give you a time to pick it up but when you get there they make it fresh.

Cart-Driver Lohi - Daisy pizza - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I've visit their RiNo location before and loved the food but their LoHi location has even more options and way more space! They have an outdoor patio that was full when we dined on a Friday for happy hour but the indoor seating was a great option. Their happy hour included drinks, oysters, and the Daisy pizza and more. The happy hour cocktail was super tasty and rotates, which I love. The cheese pizza was just as good as I remember! Our server was great and quick. We have a miscommunication about the happy hour negroni but she was able to fix it without issue. I will certainly be back and can't wait to try their pastas at this location. read more

Cart-Driver Lohi - Bread & Butter - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I've been here a handful of times and I've had good and sub-par experiences. That being said, this past trip was amazing. Unknowingly popped in during happy hour so we had to oblige in some cocktails. The messed-up-Negroni is fire. The addition of Prosecco in their take on a Negroni makes the cocktail extremely crushable with the same bitter taste of the original. Big fan. We threw back a couple oysters and they thoroughly impressed me. Fresh and no salty fish taste at all, great presentation as well. We started with some bread and butter. Slightly charred focaccia with a rotating compound butter. The butter at the time was a salsa verde flavor which tasted a lot better than you would think. Great way to get warmed up for more carbs. The entrees we ordered were the Zaerano Farfalle and Prosciutto and the Daisy pizza. The farfalle was the star of the show. Full of flavor from the sauce. Almost like a buttery broth. For pasta this is as light as it gets, but the flavor is all there! The daisy was great too, nothing much to report. Above average Neapolitan style pizza. Great size for 17$. If you're hungry you could probably crush it yourself. The restaurant itself is well kept and charming. Upscale feel and decor - type of place to impress your parents with a casual meal. Might sound weird but they have misters for their outside seating and they perfectly offset the 90° weather. Our service was great! Accurate and timely. Friendly and upbeat. Very fun and delicious meal. read more

This place is located in the center of LoHi. We found street parking. Had a reservation and we're seated on time. There is also an outdoor patio which is nice when the weather is appropriate outside. We came here a little bit earlier to get the happy hour cocktail deal. The happy hour menu, features several appetizers and cocktails. It was refreshing. After we got seated for dinner, the server was very friendly and gave us great recommendation. To start, we ordered a charcuterie board and added prosciutto on the side for an extra six dollars. My favorite thing on the board was the chicken liver moves and sausages. Another appetizer that we ordered was the beat and ricotta cheese salad. I highly recommend it because it's got a nice flavor, great for Summer For pizzas, we ordered a lamb and chimichurri as well as the signature cart-Driver pizza with sausage and mozzarella. I like both of them and I like that they are not as heavy as some other sick and heavily sauce. Pizzas you might find elsewhere. Their pizzas achieved a nice balance My favorite part of the dish was actually the Bolognese pasta! It comes in a very small portion, but very well cooked with a beautiful presentation . This is something that I will definitely order again One thing that I really didn't like was that one hour and 45 minutes since we sat down at the table , the server already started rushing us out, saying that the next reservation for this table is coming up soon. Then the server kind of hovered around the table and looked at his watch as a passive aggressive sign. I understand that this is not the servers fault, but a decision made by the restaurant. However, it is very unpleasant to have someone constantly rush you while you are enjoying food and drinks with friends because they set their reservations close to each other and are so eager to flip the table! read more

Great spot in a cute neighborhood. Can choose from indoor and outdoor. We ordered the Daisy to share. You can also do toppings on half the pie! The pizza took awhile but because it's made fresh! It's pretty large. We were both stuffed eating half of the pie. Service was great! read more

Cart-Driver Lohi - Daisy with half mushrooms - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Super good! I really liked the pizza. Came tonight on a Friday and it was packed but I didn't even have to wait 10 minutes to get sat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Only downside is that the tables are so small it's hard to eat with a lot of people but I get it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely want to try the clam pizza next but I was afraid at first but once I tried my pizza I know that one will be good!!! The lemon ricotta one 9/10 so good I just need to add meat next time! Daisy 9/10 can't go wrong with a basic margarita pizza. Whatever hot sauce they have on the table is super good. I think adding hot honey would be amazing! read more

I've been eying Cart Driver ever since I heard about their Prosecco on tap and Clam Pizza - so after pampering ourselves with facials, my sister and I ventured over for a glass of wine and a bite before heading home. We arrived around 5:15PM on a Monday, which allowed us to snag a spot to park on the street and walk less than a block to the entrance. The restaurant was relatively busy for a weekday happy hour yet there was plenty of seating in the cozy interior, so the host graciously lead us to a high-top table near the bar, which was perfect for the two of us. Let's just say the large windows, exposed brick, open kitchen, rich oak bar and jazzy tunes played overhead really create one hell of a vibe, that's totally welcoming. We quickly found ourselves right at home and proceeded to check out the extensive menu. The bartender (who also happened to be our server) approached us within minutes to take our drink order, and although we weren't feeling Prosecco, we simply asked him for his recommendation on wine that would accompany the Clam Pizza. Ultimately, he chose a deliciously crisp white, that was dry and delicious! He was very friendly, informative and made small talk with us, which was nice. He was attentive yet allowed us to enjoy all aspects of the meal without a rush. Now - the FOOD! HOLY MOLY. Everything is made in house - dough, sauces, pasta - you name it, it's made within the walls of the establishment and totally impressive. We opted to start our meal with a round of fresh Oysters - Massachusetts Oysters to be exact - which were lump, plump and oh, so good! The 4 we ordered went fast, so at the request of my sister, we ordered the Sardines. Before we knew it. the canned Sardines arrived with a side of sauces and freshly baked Italian bread. Let's just say - this was one of my favorite parts of the meal! The soft salty fish paired SO WELL with the sauces against the dense bread - creating the perfect bite! YUM! THEN, out came the Clam Pizza! Each pie features a delicious cream sauce topped with littleneck clam, pancetta, panna, roasted garlic cloves (which were so so so good) and herbs. Within the first bite, my sister and I looked at each other and said YUM in unison, because YUM. The pizza was perfectly wood fired, generously topped with goodies and had both salty and sweet elements (I swear I could taste cinnamon!) that balanced out nicely! We were too stuffed for dessert, but possibly next time! Overall, I'd easily return to this little gem in the heart of LoHi - and you should too! ***Pro Tip: Happy hour is offered, despite the misprint on the menu. We were a little stumped when the host brought us a happy hour menu, only to see that happy hour was offered Tuesday - Friday, but I assure you, it's offered each day - both during the week and weekend! read more

Without question, Cart Driver is one of the top 5 pizza places in Denver, and the LoHi location has great vibes, friendly service, and plenty to love. If you're into Neapolitan style pizza, outside of Marco's Coal Fired, there's pretty much nothing that compares to Cart Driver in Denver. Neapolitan style pizzas is the classic style of pizza, and they mix it with modern recipes and delicious appetizers that make this a great place to bring friends and visitors alike. There's a reason why Cart Driver is on every best pizza in Denver list, and the LoHi location has more comfortable seating that's still super cool and modern when you're looking for pizza in the area. read more

Best pizza in Denver! I am a huge fan of pizza in (almost) all it's forms. However, overall if I were to choose the best pizza I've had since moving to Denver I'd pick cart driver. My boyfriend and I came for happy hour and got the special cocktail and the Daisy and Peppers pizza (basic, I know). The drinks were so good and the pizza was the perfect combination of toasty and chewy! It tasted very authentic and not too overwhelming or rich. Loved the vibe of the place as well, but defiantly get there early since it filled up quick! The outdoor bar at the LoHi location was so cute and great for people watching.

A whole section of the menu dedicated to the classic spritz? Found my new summer patio spot. I got the spritz of the day, which was wonderfully floral and bright. I would definitely get it again! We got the farmers salad which came with a Parmesan dressing. The dressing was a bit much, and I would definitely get it on the side next time. I also thing the Parmesan made it a bit gritty in texture, but hey, it's a popular dish! We got the Daisy pizza which was delicious! Such a chewy crust and fresh marinara! The cheese could have been a bit more fresh, the mozzarella wasn't anything special. Overall though, I enjoyed my pizza and would have gotten another! Bonus points for such a cool atmosphere, misters on the patio, and great service! read more

My wife and I came in Wednesday night without a reservation and Sean the manager could not be more friendly and accommodating. I happened to be there a month earlier with three of our sons and some of youngest, Thomas's, hooligan friends and Sean remember us .

Cart-Driver Lohi - Bolognese (the BEST ever) - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This place rocks! Located in a funky, cool neighborhood in Denver, this place screams laid back cool. Street parking can be tricky but we were lucky on a Sunday night. This was our last dinner during our Colorado vacation and we went out with a bang. We did dining in. We started with a Farm Green salad and it was honestly one of the best salads I ever had in my life. It was phenomenal and the flavors just melded together. The dressing was excellent. I had the Daisy and it was great. The little one had a pepperoni (which is called Peppers). There was a bit of mix up since I thought they would make a kid size for her but she got the regular adult size and of course proceeded to eat one piece. I helped out a bit and it was THE BEST pepperoni pizza I have ever had. Ever. The wife had the Hawaiian and liked it a lot but there were pickled jalapeños that were very spicy and overpowered the rest of the flavors. The star for all the pies was the crust which was crispy and charred. Delicious! I had a Colorado cola and the kid had a Colorado root beer which I thought was cool. The service was friendly and helpful. I would definitely return here. read more

A short walk from our hotel in LoHi area. We walked in and was able to get seated but a high top table for 2 by the bar area. We were explained the menu and they had a happy hour menu. Got a few drinks but they were honestly very weak like water for both of our drinks. First off, it's pretty expensive. Like coming from Boston, the prices were on par. Also something I noticed were they are super light on the meat options. Some here and there but the menu is pretty vegetarian friendly so we actually preferred they had more. Ordered pork bolognese and peppers pizza. The pasta was good in its own way I would say. The flavors were good but nothing close to Italian. Comparing it to an Italian dish, no good but not comparing it, it was good in its on way. The pizza was just ok. Just a pepperoni pizza honestly that costed $20 for a small 10 inch. Service though was super quick. Anytime our plates were cleaned, instantly the waitress was ready to pick it up. read more

First off I'm gonna say the food we had was definitely mediocre and I have a terrible stomach ache the next day. Be prepared for terrible service. Our server not only wasn't friendly. He rushed us and made us order our drinks and pizza all at once when honestly, none of us were ready. We had to wait 15 minutes for our drinks and probably an hour for our pizza when it should've taken 20 to 30 minutes. It really wasn't that busy. Lastly when our food runner brought our food, our server disappeared for the rest of the night. He never asked our food was anything like that. While watching are their servers keep up on their table and check in with them. We've literally had to wave down a random food runner to get our check. I will never come back here again. It is overpriced and the service is terrible. read more
