Was craving Italian & found this place & it was great! Had the Alfredo pasta & a calzone. Pasta was creamy & calzone very cheesy & flavorful. Will definitely come back! read more

Mici Italian - Alfredo Pasta - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

See all

When my husband and I moved to Stapleton, we were a strict Anthony's Pizza family. When we first experienced the AWFUL service the terrible timing of their pizzas, we ventured to Micis. Ever since, we've been in love! Micis is much more affordable and much more reliable. For example, tonight we went for a simple pizza. When we were told 20 minutes and we didn't get the actual pizza until an hour later, we were pissed. This had been our experience every time at Anthony's and were so disappointed. However, when we received our pizza they refunded us the amount we paid and gave us a voucher for our next pizza "on them". We were blown away but they customer service and awareness of their mistakes. This NEVER would have happened at the Stapleton Anthony's! This experience makes us confident that we will continue to be loyal customers. We felt cared for and LOVE their pizza! read more

My kids love the little kid size pizzas here. They also have gelato. The caramel oreo flavor is so good. Staff is friendly as well.

Don't order take out, it sucks. No sauce, no seasoning, dry, bland, flavorless, and waaaaay overpriced. It's like whoever is in charge of the to go orders could care less about them. read more

I have been coming to Mici's in Central Park for years. I really like the food...so why the 2 star review. Because they mess my order up EVERY SINGLE TIME! I stopped getting delivery, because there would always be items missing. Sometimes my Salad, or that side of Spaghetti and Meatballs. I now only do pick-up because of this...but they still continue to screw that up. Last time I ordered - it was a simple Pepperoni Pizza. Got home, looked at the pizza..and no pepperonis (it was the only topping I ordered) Tonight, went to pick up my 2 things of Pasta and a Calzone. Stood there for 15 min waiting for the calzone to "come out of the oven". When the girl went to check again everyone in the kitchen were like "what Calzone? We don't see that on the ticket, what kind do you need". I said forget it...as I had hangry kids at home. So...my advice if your are going to order from Mici's in Central Park. 1. Don't get delivery - because they will miss items and screw it up 2. When you go to pick-up your order - double check what they put in the bags, because good chance your order will be screwed up. 3. Don't cash out your pick-up ticket until you actually have your food and checked that it is correct. Example - I tipped 25% on order as soon as I walked in, that I stood around for 15 min waiting on (because they never made it), and then when I cancelled the item, then refunded me just the value of the item I cancelled (at the end of their night), but kept the full tip - so basically I tipped them 50% to screw up my order and get half my food. So yes...I will continue to go Mici's in Central Park - because quite frankly we don't have a lot of options and I do like the food. I just wish Management would implement some better policies on checking orders when they come in and go out. Also, I feel the pain for staff shortages going on now, but tonight I was the only person in the restaurant the entire time I was there, 1 phone order came in, and 5 people were working (and still managed to screw up half my order). read more

My dinning companion wanted to try this place so I went along. My normal inclination would have been to turn around and leave once I saw that it was counter service. Turns out my initial reaction was largely correct. Don't misunderstand, this place is awesome as a kid's pizza parlor and ice cream shop. It makes a lot of sense in the neighborhood it is in to run this type of business. But don't for a second try to convince yourself that this place is a fine Italian restaurant. It is not and that's not necessarily a bad thing. There are plenty of local pizza delivery places that have long, successful runs slinging pizza to satisfied customers year in, year out. Nothing at all wrong with that. In fact if Mici's would just do that and do that well, I would applaud them for understanding where to draw the line. Where I have a bone to pick with them is the attempt at real Italian food on the menu and a feeling of overreaching. The salads are all made from obvious pre-mix which has the unfortunate tendency of going bad quickly. What this results in is a salad lightly sprinkled with rotten pieces of lettuce that, once discovered, render the entire dish inedible. Whatever happened to the craft of pantry work? The prep cook who washes fresh lettuce daily to insure the customer has a crisp, fresh salad? It must not be cost effective, is my guess. The gigantic mural on the wall of the extended family - would they have bought pre-mix lettuces to serve customers and called it their own culinary creation? The panini sandwiches are also a bit of a miss. The beauty of the panini is the forced fusing of taste elements via the press. The other beauty is starting with high quality bread. Mici did seem to get that part right, but the fusing didn't take, so what gets served is a pile of "stuff" on almost completely dry ciabatta. Fresh tomatoes are kind of a big deal if tomatoes are one of the main ingredients in the sandwich. In my case, the tomatoes were not fresh, but mealy. The lasagna was odd. I swear I tasted olive oil, which isn't necessarily "wrong", just strange for this dish. The whole plate was overly oily. The flavors weren't bad and again, the garlic bread was probably the best part of the dish. That shouldn't be the case. I get it. If you want to run a family place you have to offer something besides just pizza. But execution is key. For around thirty dollars for two people, this is not what I would describe as a good value for money. At that price point, things need to be fresh and correct the large majority of the time. On the positive side, the staff was very welcoming, responsive to complaints and generally present, so that goes a long way, but it does not overcome the food issues. After the kids' soccer game a few pies and some gelato for dessert is about the speed of Mici's, so go with that flow and resist your grown-up feelings for the more nuanced cuisines presented on the menu. If I return to find a much abridged menu I will consider that a good start. read more

Excellent pizza! Excellent! It's authentic and delicious. They are pretty quick for delivery and just superior quality every time. You can build your own pie and the crust is of great quality. You must check this place out. We enjoy trying the variety of pies and their desserts are tasty! If you are looking for good pizza, look no further! read more

I got a flyer in the mail for Mici so decided to redeem the coupon and try them out. I had a coupon for a $1 personal size pizza that was olive oil, cheese and zucchini. It was pretty good--a little bland for my taste but it was good. I also got a caesar salad and it was really good. Not overly dressed and had a nice grating of parmesan cheese on top. The place is clean and modern--great for lunch. Not sure it has that cozy dinner time feel, but great for getting something to go if you live in the area. Prices were medium high to me. I will have to check them out for a large pepperoni pizza to see how they compare to other pizza joints. The crust was pretty good though on my personal pizza. I will be anxious to try their pasta dishes as well and I am glad there is a non-chain restaurant in the neighborhood. read more

This was good and affordable. I got a small pizza and a side salad. I left full and satisfied.

This is seriously the best pizza in Denver - I'm not even joking. I'm from NY and have unreasonably high standards for what good pizza is and this restaurant wins! The staff in the entire business from the food deliverers to the owners are such fantastic people- between the people and the food, I can't stop going back. And THE BEST gelato! read more

Let me get this out of the way. I don't love love love italian food (well, Americanized Italian food). But I was going to lunch with a friend and her kid, so I let them pick. I had the lunch special. Half sandwich, half salad. THEY WERE DELICIOUS. Loved the sandwich (turkey with pesto) and the salad (house salad with balsamic, grapes, walnuts). Everyone else ate their plates clean too. The kid had a slice of pizza and a salad. My friend had a sandwich (I can't remember which one). Then the kid got some gelato for dessert. Staff are friendly, tables and floor were clean. We stayed for a very long time and didn't get any kind of stink eye. Kid and group friendly. Great spot for lunch! read more

An easy to find convenient family oriented place to eat. Noisy, better than mediocre food. Grandkids loved the ice cream. The menu is posted in an tight space near the place you order, so you can get in the way of patrons as you read the BIG somewhat complex. I think they need to reposition the selection board. Will go back as the family lives about a 10 minute drive. read more

I saw some bad reviews, but decided to try it out anyway since I don't really have a go-to Italian place nearby. Big mistake. The good (sort of): I ordered delivery, the delivery person was nice, and got my food fast. Too fast. I ordered at 5PM on a weekend. They knocked on my door 16 minutes after I received the order confirmation email (and Google said the drive was 6 minutes). Although I normally appreciate a speedy delivery, this was suspiciously quick. Combined with the cold pasta (see below), it looks like they had it precooked. The bad: My pasta was cold, and the lettuce in my salad was pretty disgusting. The flavor of the pasta actually wasn't bad. At least, it didn't taste microwaved. But despite the 16 minute delivery (or because of it...) my pasta was mostly cold - some shells were lukewarm, but most were cold (as though it sat under a heat lamp for awhile, and the top shells got warmed up a bit). I got a side salad and just threw it away. About a third of the lettuce was browning and had that slimy moist consistency that happens just before it starts to rot. And the zucchini slices were so dry they had the consistency of construction paper. I'll keep looking for my go-to Italian place near Park Hill, and I suggest you do the same unless you are just looking for fast food. (Since I see that the manager likes to call and offer gift cards or free meals - I can save you the trouble and tell you that I don't want any more meals here, even free ones. Instead of always apologizing after the fact, put your energy into fixing the problems.) read more

We ordered pizza and salad for delivery online and everything came hot, fresh and accurately. It was delicious. The salad was amazing. Delivery boy looked sad so we tipped generously. Hopefully he cheers up lol I would def eat here again in the future read more

I didn't enjoy this Mici location as much as the one in Cherry Creek. Sure the parking is free and it's easier to access but it misses the mark. I ordered a house salad. It was a large portion but extremely pricey for the quality. I expected an awesome salad for almost $10. It was far from that. It seemed as if bagged ingredients were quickly tossed together and the lettuce was ice cold (a pet peeve of mine). If you can't add anything special to the basic ingredients of a salad don't tout that as a specialty item at your restaurant. The salad was served with two generous pieces of bread. That was a plus. In all fairness, I didn't try the pizza at this location so I can't speak on that. I was so disappointed with the salad that I don't feel the need to return to try it. read more

We ordered delivery through GrubHub, so I don't know anything about the location except that they're under a mile from my apartment. Our estimated delivery time was about 40 minutes. After probably an hour, I used the chat option on GrubHub's site because there was no sign of our food and Mici hadn't contacted us to report any issues. I can't say enough about GrubHub's customer service - they called called the restaurant, let me know that they were running late, and then offered me a $25 credit to make up for an issue that wasn't really even their fault. Mici FINALLY delivered (50 minutes late, and they're literally a 4 minute drive from me), and the food was...meh. My pasta was pretty good, but I could've made the same at home cheaper and faster. My husband said he only ate his because he was so hungry by the time we got it. Our garlic bread was kind of a joke, and it was cold. They gave us a card for a free entree, but we never bothered because we never wanted to wait that long for mediocre food. I could've ordered Pizza Hut pasta - at least that's usually still hot when I get it. read more

WOW... Best pizza in town. I just moved to this area and ordered from this place and is very delicious and fast delivery. For sure I'm going to keep ordering from here. Fast and fresh delivery read more

Love love love mici! Their sandwiches are gigantic and sooo good. The bread is nice and toasted - crunchy outside but nice and soft in the middle! The pasta dishes are really good as well. Its one of my favorite spots in my neighborhood! The employees are always nice and helpful, very knowledgeable about the menu. Great place! read more

Looking for a Pizza that wasn't a mass produced product, and we were more than satisfied with the meal. The pizza was delicious. We had three different types: the pepperoni, margherita and the Mediterranean. The location is two minutes from home and the employees were extremely helpful and courteous. read more

Mici's gluten-free pizza actually tastes like a real pizza, unlike say, Anthony's or Domino's , which taste like the cardboard box they came in. We like it. But it only comes in a 10" size and it is expensive, just under $14. Here is the real issue though with Micis'. If you buy a pizza for carryout or have one delivered, you better make sure that you open the box before leaving the store or paying the delivery person. Too many times we (and friends here in Stapleton) have been given a errant pizza order; forgetting to put on toppings or adding toppings we specifically did not order, or even once, making us a non-cheese pizza! One time, our pizza was woefully undercooked. Easy enough to pop it into our oven but still, no excuse. Yes, they will acknowledge their error but that's about it. Expect to wait at the store for 20 minutes while they remake the correct pizza or, 40 minutes to get the correct one delivered. Getting a good pizza on a consistent basis in Denver is like Finding Waldo. We are not ardent fans of any one pizzeria but do like the fact that Patxi's offers Daiya Cheese substitute. Too bad Patxi's pizzas are like massive dough bombs that sit in one's digestive track for days! read more

Pizza was good Delivery took 1 hour 25 minutes in a Saturday Lasagna was not Needs more ricotta. She doesn't believe the noodles are homemade Too much like microwave Salad was okay Soup was good but they gave us 1 set of fork/knife for a large order and 0 spoons for soup. read more

Mici's was good when it first opened up but, now it's not worth the time or money. I say time because we live about 12 blocks from the restaurant and it takes at least an hour and half for delivery no matter what day of the week. I would choose pick up to save on time but, have found after 30 minutes I will have to wait at least 15 more in the store. It is ridiculous! The quality is way down too the last two pizzas I ordered arrived warm at best. They need to get their act together it used to be such a good quality pie. read more

The pizza is good and definitely more upscale/gourmet than other pizza delivery places. That being said it is a tad overpriced...you'll end up spending $40-50 to feed a family, where you could easily do it for $25 having pizza delivered from elsewhere. The other bummer for us was they don't have breadsticks but charge $8 for a side of garlic bread, and ours was dried out and so no one touched it. Don't waste you money on that. The crust is good and I appreciate all the veggie option and unique combos they offer. read more

My first visit here was very rewarding. I had the antipasto and also built my own calzone. The antipasto wasn't very traditional as it was dressed in Italian, but it was well done and delicious. The calzone, which I had filled with sausage, mushrooms, and artichoke hearts was honestly one of the best I've ever had. The only thing preventing five stars for me was the atmosphere. You order at a counter and they bring you your food and it feels a lot like you are in a noodles & co. I was also the only person in the place that did not have kids with me so it was a bit noisy, but what should I expect in Stapleton at 5:45? But it did have a great view of Kenny's house........ (Recent South Park reference) ;) read more

I came here with my sister and we're both loved it, I had a craving for pasta and this place got the spot. I love the combo of marinara and alfredo sauce. We both ordered gelato in different flavors, it was no disappointment and I highly recommend. I'll come back and will definitely be hitting up the gelato, I found this place on Google and was so happy with my meal. My sister who came to visit me wants to come back here next time she visits. read more

Mici makes a decent pizza, and a good house salad. Lunch special is the perfect size for one. Conveniently located across the street from Bladium gym, with parking in the lot in back. read more

It's okay! I'm new to the area and have been looking for a good Italian spot. Based on previous reviews I had pretty high expectations. I expected more of a mom & pop, full service restaurant, but it's set up to order with a cashier and someone delivers food to your number. We ordered calzones which were good, but nothing spectacular. Overall, a pretty mundane experience. I wouldn't go out of my way. read more

Had a coupon to try a cheese pizza. Very high crust to cheese and sauce ratio. Need some honey like Beaujos to eat with all that crust.

I really want to give Mici's 4 stars. I think the food is overall great, decent pizza and super convenient for me. I love the Mici's downtown and would grab lunch there often. But the past two orders have been messed up in some way. First, a couple of months ago - I called in an order and when I got there to pick it up they had just sent my pizza out with someone else. It is an honest mistake and they offered to remake the pizza. I declined, because I didn't want to wait for another pizza. I took it home. It was ok, although room temperature by the time I got it back from the other people and made it home. I chalked it up to an accident, but didn't let it sway my love of Mici's. Last night, I put in an order and ran to pick it up. I ordered a Cristofiori, Insalada Mista, and The bruschetta with mozzarella. I had added some veggies to the pizza and when I got home - all the veggies where there but no chicken. They forgot to give my salad all together and the bread was pretty bad. I called and they offered to remake the pizza and deliver it, but I thought it would be quicker to just run an grab it. The pizza was great and the salad was good (what I expected). But the bread was not even worth it a little. It was garlic bread with cheese just melted as if they stuck it in the microwave. It wasn't crisped up or broiled. It looked pretty lifeless. It didn't have a great garlic punch or anything. I ended up throwing it away, I just couldn't bring myself to eat it. I think the customer service is good and they always try to right their mistakes! Overall atmosphere is nice and the food is good. It is on the pricey side, but that's what you get for gourmet pizza. I will likely give them one more try, but triple check my order before I leave this time. read more

Mici is the BEST! We adore everything they make! From pizza to pasta to desert- it's soo yummy! My husbands favorite is the lasagna. They are consistently good! They always send out coupons and keep me coming back (probably coming back too often). Their delivery is so fast that it's freaky. Also the best customer service when we pick up. So glad we have this gem in Central Park. read more

I cannot begin to thank Sarah and her entire staff and the way they made what could have been a really bad night into a great night for our soccer team and parents! The food was excellent! The service was outstanding! They went above and beyond to accommodate our soccer team at the last minute when a local restaurant (Anthony's) failed to make or deliver our confirmed catering order and made no effort to correct their mistake! We are so appreciative of the hospitality and kindness they showed us. Great food! Great staff! Great management! Thank you for everything! read more

Decent food. Terrible service!!! All of our food came out at different times. No rhyme or reason??? Expensive for a very so-so experience. Skip it. read more

Mici's is by far the best pizza place in Stapleton. This review is for their pizza only, I have not tried any of their dishes. We've only had take out and delivery of Mici's I don't eat a ton of pizza but if I'm going to eat the calories of pizza I want it to be good. If you're looking for NY style pizza this is not the place for you. If you like a thinner flavorful crust with the perfect amount of toppings not overwhelmed by sauce then try it out. We've tried the formaggio, Giardino (my personal fave), Mediterrano and Caprarola. All delicious and cooked to perfection. Friendly fast service. read more

I was looking to have a quick client lunch at a location that triangulated between downtown, the Tech Center, and the airport. Oh, and that wasn't Applebee's. The client was a bit annoyed at first that he had had to drive into a "neighborhood" to get there, but he was not at all disappointed once the food arrived. Thick tomato basil soup with big hunks of crusty bread, delicious tortellini with prosciutto, and a glass of wine totally changed his mood. I had a gluten-free pizza that was a bit hard of crust, but the delightful sauce totally made up for it. Best of all, we were in and out in half an hour. Perfecto! P.S.--Don't leave without grabbing a few of the cookies. We got one each of the pignoli cookies and the florentines. Chewy and so authentic ... I thought I was back in Brooklyn. read more

Nice contemporary Italian restaurant in Stapleton. I had Tortellini Alla Miceli. Excellent. Only drawback to the restaurant was a wobbly table and where the menu is set up, its curved, (you order up front) read more

This is a great local pizza spot in #Stapleton. Love the staff and the pizza and calzones are tasty. The pizza has its own character, believe it or not, love their sauce as well. The kiddos love the gelato. The patio is great in the summer for an evening out with the fam. So happy to have them in the neighborhood. read more

Mici Italian - Italian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

UPDATE: On my next visit the General Manager addressed my review and personally apologized for the wait and explained that a short staff caused it on the particular day I had written this review. The GM comped my meal as an additional apology, which was kindly appreciated. I very much appreciate the extra effort, like I said in my original review, the staff is nice and attentive. And as you can see, the food is good enough that I keep going back, even if I call in my order first. ____________ The food here is half-decent for Italian fast-casual. Fair bit of options between paninis, pizza, pasta, soups and salad. Italian ice cream available too. The staff is nice and attentive. I have been pleased with their interactions. The main problem I've been having here is how long it takes to get food, even when they're slow. It always takes over 10 minutes, even if you're the only customer. 15+ during lunch. I've taken to calling in my orders but even then they aren't always ready 10-15 minutes later. In fact, this review was written during my 21 minute wait for a salad today. Unfortunately, I didn't call it in. This isn't fast-causal because there is nothing fast about the service. Prices feel about $0.50-$1.00 on the high end for most menu options. read more

The pizza is good. It would be better if they had jalapeños as a topping. Pepperoni and jalapeños are a classic and delicious combination.

Was in town for a sports tournament and dropped in on a Saturday night after reading the reviews. Ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, cheese pizza and a salad to-go. Service was good and restaurant was clean. Food was fresh especially the meatballs. Pizza crust was thin and sauce was clearly homemade. Price was average but good for the quality of food. Would definitely eat here again. read more

I was craving pasta and decided to give Mici's a try. Excellent choice! Had the Pesto Bow tie pasta with sausage added in; it was perfect and took care of my pasta craving. There was a slight mix up with my bruschetta that I wanted as an appetizer; the manager came by and explained why it came out after my entree and took it off my tab. I will definitely be back and recommend it to friends. Can't beat the combination of great food and customer service to match! read more
