Pizza Casbah

Hands down the best NYC pizza in town and probably all of northern CO. The owner makes sure the pizza is always on point and delicious, especially when he's there. I always see him in the back on the front lines doing the dirty work and prepping pizzas, his employees always have good things to say about him too. Yesterday, I went in to try the Tuesday deal of 2 slices and a drink for $5, and I also ordered a big slice extra crispy. I received my big slice first and it was exactly how I ordered it. The deal is great too! One of the new toy machines took a dollar from my daughter, and even though they don't own the machines, the owner made it right. Beyond exceptional service, and the atmosphere fits a NYC pizza joint to boot!

This place has really gone downhill. Walking into the store you are greeted with an extremely dirty dining area that looks like it hasn't been cleaned in years. There is dust everywhere and mouse poop on the ground. I can't believe this place is allowed to operate with these conditions. The food was OK but i was hesitant to eat it after seeing where the food came from. I can't believe they let this place fall into such disrepair - what happened??

My favorite pizza in Fort Collins!! We got 3 24 inch pies and an order of garlic knots the other day and everyone loved the pizza! One crust was a tad burnt and the garlic knots were seriously burnt on top so I’m hoping g they’ll take a bit more care but we will still be back again!!

Second time they let me down in a month. 24" pizza barely cooked, cheese barely melted and all flop. Like a wet towel. Zero crunch. When I got home from picking it up, it looked like it was a take and bake. There's no way whoever pulled that couldn't tell. If you order pick up, check your pie before you leave to make sure you didn't just waste your money and time. I have loved this place for decades but two trash pizza in a row is a joke.

6-29-25 It’s REALLY hard to mess up pizza. How does that even happen? Last night was the second time that we’ve been to Pizza Casbah and it will be our last. We like to support local businesses so it’s unfortunate that this won’t be one of them. The first time we tried PC, our pizza was pretty good (7.5 out of 10) but our second visit was abysmal. I understand that quality and flavor will somewhat vary depending on the employees & their methods of food preparation but is there no standardized recipe or baking technique that everyone is trained to follow? FORTY percent of the crust on our slices was burnt to a crisp; *almost half* of our pizza was black and brittle & it wasn’t just on the edges. (Do employees not receive training on how to properly bake thin crust pizza to where there’s the chewiness and crisp but without charring the pie?) Additionally, there was next to no sauce and the pizza was so salty that we couldn’t even finish it. Thin crust pizza isn’t meant to be slathered in sauce but there absolutely needs to be a layer of it that covers the pie. Rather than a consistent layer of marinara, our pizza had thin, random swipes of sauce which resulted in the pizza being extra dry. The absence of it also caused the pizza to be extra salty because there wasn’t the sweetness or acidity to offset the saltiness of the our chosen toppings and the cheese. Between the absence of sauce, the pizza being charred, and how salty it was, I would rank our food as 2 out of 10, which is quite a difference from our first visit. In this economy & being on a strict budget, it’s a special treat to go out to dinner. When the quality of food of a restaurant is inconsistent, one doesn’t want to roll the dice and gamble on whether or not the food you order will be edible. I don’t like confrontation so I didn’t ask for a refund or for our food to be remade. I also know it’s never a good idea to offend the cook when ordering from an establishment; I’ve worked in the restaurant industry and I’m well aware of what happens when you do. It’s just better to take your business elsewhere. In the future, we will visit other businesses when we have a pizza craving. I hope the owners will offer or revisit the necessary training on how to bake a thin crust as well as how to correctly apply sauce & improve on their product. (Side note: even if unskilled, the employees were at least friendly. In terms of cleanliness, the tables were dirty and sticky. The bathroom was kinda gross too.)

Fort Collins’ Fallen Cheesy Empire Pizza Casbah… Fort Collins’ very own greasy time capsule from 2009 — back when getting a Casbah slice at 2 AM was a spiritual experience and not a gastrointestinal gamble. Remember when Casbah was the spot after hitting Old Town or getting kicked out of Road 34? Now it feels more like a punishment. You don’t “go” to Pizza Casbah anymore — you end up there. Let’s be real — that crust isn’t doughy. It’s raw ambition with no follow-through. You take one bite and it’s like chewing on a memory foam mattress soaked in bong water. How about that crust? — doughy doesn’t even begin to describe it.— including this slice. It’s so underbaked, it’s still in therapy for abandonment issues. Toppings slide off like they’re trying to escape. Even faster than a freshman dropping out after syllabus week. Mushrooms, pepperoni, even the cheese joined a union and now refuses to work overtime. That whole pizza’s more disorganized than a freshman’s planner . And the staff? A rotating door of CSU students who clearly just woke up from a nap in the kitchen. Half of them are high enough to mistake marinara for hand sanitizer. You walk in and they look at you like you just asked them to solve a physics equation using mozzarella. They move slower than Larimer County road construction. One guy took my order while FaceTiming his ex — still more engaged than the cook in the back who was probably dabbing with a spatula. Honestly, Casbah is like your college ex — used to be fun, always there late at night, and now it’s kind of embarrassing to admit you ever loved it. But every now and then, nostalgia tricks you into going back… and like always, regret is served hot, with a doughy crust. Good luck!

Cool pizza spot with really good NY-style slices. They’re truly huge slices, I was full after 1.5 slices and a soda.

Delicious! I love the slice option because I get to try more creations. I had the BLT, creamy bruschetta and supreme. They were delicious!

They're pizza fugs great crispy crust, good sauce, and plenty of cheese. Price is right too and service is good.

The owner Pete swears and cusses customers out when his shitty "restaurant" screws up your order. I haven't eaten here in months because last trip they again gave me the WRONG order. Not even close!! Pete will hopefully be OUT OF BUSINESS very soon. His lack of appreciation for paying customers is pathetic and inexcusable. I won't ever be back after he told me to "F off" This was after they burned the pita bread and made me wait while they made another one...with lamb meat BURNED AND BLACK. I took one bite and threw it away. Waste of 8 dollars and no lunch thanks to them. He doesn't deserve to work at McDonalds. This place has gone far downhill and his terrible attitude is probably to blame. Avoid this place at all costs I will also be contacting the BBB in Fort Collins to alert them of this asshole and his

The first time I heard about Pizza Casbah was in a class at CSU when Pete came to speak to a class. I figured I might as well check it out, and brought a friend with me. . . and I wished I had heard about this place sooner! The pizza is by far the best in Fort Collins. I'm a sucker for good pizza dough, and man is Casbah's is AMAZING! The pizza is a little on the greasy side, but that makes it taste even better! Pete does a great job! I wasn't a huge fan of the seating/area inside, but they have an amazing patio to eat outside! This is defiantly a pizza place you NEED to check out! Best in Fort Collins!

Casbah is my favorite pizza place in the world (no joke). I used to go here all the time for dollar slices as a broke college student. Never disappointed! Now that I'm older, it hasn't changed a bit! It's the same great slice time and time again. Quality chewy crust (ask for extra crispy). Quality cheeses and toppings! Absolutely love this pizza place. It's the best in Fort Collins if you like NY style pizza. Check them out!

Realized it had been too long since my last visit. So I jumped in the car and I was very happy I did. Just as I remembered, simply excellent NY style pizza. And just seeing the 24" pizza laid out in all its glory, always makes me grin from ear to ear.

I'm just a slut for greasy pizza. Has some of the best prices in town for the wettest, greasiest pizza in all of northern colorado. Gotta hand it to the boys in the back for makin it sloppy.

It's extremely disappointing when you have an amazing pizza, but only half your order was for failed. Caution.

Best pizza place in Fort Collins. Regular cheese pizza and mozzarella sticks are typically our go to, but their specialty pizzas are the ! Highly recommended!!

Here's the rub. I like their pizza but hate their customer service. I stayed away for years because of a lunch time fiasco (I had ordered lunch, gave them my card. Waited. Waited more. Called. They "lost" my order. No delivery. No lunch. No apology.). That was enough for me. I should've stayed there. Seriously, folx. But the years passed, and I decided to give them another try. A few deliveries to the office every now and then, followed by a few in restaurant pick-ups. Staff is always curt, like they have better things to do than take my order. Not my favorite feeling, but I've tried to extend grace. Ordered a pizza this evening. Specifically asked delivery driver to NOT leave pizza on the floor outside my door. Indicated I would mask up and answer door to accept pizza. Not what happened. Driver left pizza on the floor outside my door. And, my Caesar salad had disgusting brown iceberg lettuce in it! Who makes a Caesar with iceberg? Not to mention the bonus of receiving Kraft dressing. No thanks on so many levels! Consistently poor service. Kraft salad dressing. I've learned my lesson. I chose to pass on the Casbah experience.

Pizza Casbah is exceptional NY style pizza right here in Fort Collins. The pizza is a great value, and always tasty. The Brooklyn Deluxe is my personal favorite. And, getting extra cheese on any of their pizzas is always a really nice bonus (some places it's too heavy or makes the slice fall apart). Also, they have a nice little dessert option in zeppoles (I like the cinnamon sugar + icing). I've actually never eaten in, so I can't comment on that part of the experience but their delivery is always earlier/faster than expected.

Best pizza in Fort Collins for the price. Good atmosphere and ambiance in the restaurant as well.

This place is just a classic college pizza joint. You get the feel walking in with the couple of arcade games, sign for $1 PBRs, and just this vibe like many college students have definitely vomited here on late nights. But that certainly doesn't take away from the pizza they produced. A friend suggested Pizza Casbah so craving pizzas to-go while in town during the lunch hour I figured I'd check them out. I really appreciated that their menu had a wide array of vegetarian options. The prices weren't too crazy either even for these specialty pizzas and I enjoyed the ones we tried. Even if you want to stick to cheese, I got a 18" and it just hit the spot and was a lot of pizza. Employees were respecting COVID-19 precautions while I was there and told me when I ordered on the phone that masks were required to enter so much appreciated on that front. Ultimately, I'd return again if in the mood for a pizza and in reliving college days for some reason. As I don't drink anymore, I'll pass on the $1 PBRs and the possible insane drunkenness when we get out of COVID times. In conclusion, Sharif does like it! Pizza Casbah!

You should go to cosmos or slice for better pizza. They do have a mural on the wall with Frank but this place is not good. This town is dry when it comes to good pizza.

Frankie, at the FtCollins location is the bomb!!!! so helpful, kind and patient! I had a question about my order that I had placed the night before.. He went to the ends, just to find the answer for me... Who does that???? Thank you Frankie in Foco

There is no better pizza place in town in comparison to Casbah. Any occasion, in-laws in town, celebrations, you name it, I go here. Amazing and authentic NY style pies. I can't get enough so I stock up on the frozen personal pies to go and fill the freezer. Still amazing!!

We have been ordering pizza from this place for the past 3 years and is always great! Last order, pizza on a snowy day for pickup. They were jammed, phone blowing up with orders but the guy at the register was super nice and kept his cool. I definitely recommend this place Ps: PARKING for pick up can be a little difficult as there are little spots available so if possible, two people in the car are suggested. One to get off and get the pizza and another one to go around the block if you don't want to pay for parking in that really tiny alley around the corner.

Marinara and ricotta base. Sausage and fresh basil. Well done. This is one of the greatest pizzas I've ever had. Thank you to whoever made it.

Sept 2018- updated review Just placed my semi-annual party order this past weekend and was once again super happy with the crew at Pizza Casbah and the quality of our food! I almost ordered from another joint closer to home, but just couldn't bring myself to do it. Thank Goodness! Pizza casbah is the best! Shout out to the three that helped me on this order: Harley, Asia and Owen. All three were awesome and friendly. Previous review: If I'm gonna eat pizza, I want it to be great... calorie-worthy pizza. Pizza Casbah is, every time. It's a small joint near CSU. Not a ton of indoor seating, but normally we don't have a problem grabbing a table. It's New York style pizza.... thin crust deliciousness. The menu offers tons of specialty pizza options for both carnivores & vegetarians. I typically order one of the veggie pizzas but the cBBQ pizza is also amazing. Only hungry for a slice or two and don't want the same thing as your dining partner? No problem! They'll sell any type of pizza by the slice! I also order form pizza casbah twice per year for special event. They've never messed up the order and have been polite, accommodating and on-time. This place is seriously my favorite go-to pizza joint in FoCo. Come and you'll be glad u did!

In town for a night and this place was recommended by a friend. Good pies, easy ordering experience through the yelp app and the delivery was on time delivered by a nice, friendly delivery driver from Casbah. Look, I am not gonna tell ya it was the best pizza I've ever had BUT....it was a really good pizza, it's quite filling for a thin crust style Za and it was very convenient! I'd definitely do it again next time I'm in town!

Great little hole in the wall serving good pizza for a great price. The HUGE slices run $3-6 (3 for a cheese and then more for the specialty types). I got the gyro sandwich instead of pizza, which I throughly regretted. The lamb on the sandwich was over cooked and it could have used way more tzaiki sauce. Stick with the pizza for sure. Service on a Monday night was quick, and I love the location in downtown Ft. Collins, where I could walk around while I wait. The systems that they put in place due to COVID appeared to be effective and they weren't super inconvenient.

Heard good things about this place and decided to check it out. Waited over 35 minutes for our pizzas. It this is "New York's Finest Pizza in Ft. Collins" the bar could not be set much lower. Totally overcooked and not even close to expectations. Could have done better at Papa Murphy's

Perfect New York style pizza price is reasonable and pizza was tasty. Small seating indoors and outdoor. Very hard to find parking

Pizza casbah was one of my favorite places to go when attending CSU. Decided to stop by for a bite to eat the other day and the experience was less than pleasant. The restaurant roof was under construction and there was debris all over, they definitely should not have been open while the work was being done. Secondly, our food was cold and seemed like it had been sitting out for some time. We were told we could sit on the patio since we couldn't sit inside but the tables and chairs were chained up so we ended up having to leave. Also disappointing that they got rid of their specials during the week. Can't say we'll be returning after this.

great place if you're looking for a huge, floppy pizza slice. friendly staff, cool little hole-in-the-wall vibe and good value for the pizza. I always know it's gonna be a consistently good, solid, NYC style pizza. I always order for pick up and it's always done when they say it is, warm and fresh every time. Yum!

85% Chance they'll get your order right. But even if you get the wrong stuff the pizza is solid. Good crust.

Absolutely delicious! Legit New York slices! Friendly! Fun hole-in-the-wall! Harley was an awesome employee and very helpful! Highly recommend! We tried four different kinds of pizza and two types of wings with a happy-hour beer :-)

This has been my go-to pizza place for years because when they get it right it is delicious pizza. In the last several months, though, the pizza hasn't been consistent- it's either raw and floppy or overcooked and burnt. I'll start the search for a new go-to.

First time ordering and the pie was excellent! The delivery man was polite and on time. Casbah is my go to place for pizza! Ordered delivery for a meatball sub with spicy marinara and a Greek salad. OMG the spicy marinara was excellent and the sandwich had a great deal of meatballs. It was delivered hot and on time. My favorite place for Italian food!

Authentic New York style pizza. Delivery was on time to the minute. If I lived here, I'd be a regular!

I asked a co-worker where the best pizza in Fort Collins was and she immediately answered Pizza Casbah! We were not disappointed. We got an 18" pie for 4. We really enjoyed the thin crust pizza with its rich sauce to the basic toppings-- pepperoni, mushrooms and extra cheese all the way to the end of the crust--foldable at the beginning to the slightly chewy toward the end. The counter staff was great. Polite, friendly, accurate. What more could you want? If you like New York Style pizza, check this place out!

Always great pizza! They have the best "NY Style" thin crust in Fort Collins. This is my go-to spot for delivery, which usually comes faster than the estimated time, and they are always great about calling if they are out of a specific ingredient. Highly recommend!

Jenna J.! I would have bought that pizza from you. You have horrible tastes! this is the best NY pizza in town and has been since they opened. Don't agree? Fine. idgaf what you think. Better than crazy carl's. Love the gyros. Also, Jenna J, I feel sorry for you if you actually do eat processed garbage from 7-11. I'd have to go all the way to NYC to get something similar. Maybe you have 4th grade cafeteria taste.. al good jenna but you still have horrible taste.

What a treat!!! We got there and it was packed with college kids, middle agers, a dad in town visiting his student son, and a young family. So obvi a very eclectic clientele. We could see why right away. There was something for everyone!! Including a 24" pizza!! That thing was soooo huge! Wings. A million kinds of pizza. Sandwiches. Mellow Yellow on tap. We got a giant slice of The Queens and it was delicious! Exact same size you get in NYC! We also got an All American pizza. Tator Tots on a pizza? Yes please!!! It's a tiny hole in the wall. Narrow and deep just like the pizza places in NYC. So even the actual restaurant was authentic. Loved it. Go!!!!

Totally awesome pizza. Traveled all day from Montana and didn't want the chain pizzas. Pizza Casbah did not disappoint. I ordered the Bronx with green Chiles and it is certainly one of the best pizzas I have had. You all ROCK!

This is my favorite New York style pizza in town! The pieces are huge and have just the right balance of sauce to cheese. The crust is delicious and the topping options are awesome! The wings are also a great deal. This is my go-to pizza place for delivery.

Love Pizza Casbah, always have - always will. Kept me sane in my college days with cheap large slices of NY style pizza and brings me great nostalgia when I come back to visit. Delicious and always hits the spot.

This is by far the best NY style pizza that ever was. I used to live locally and we had it all the time.. Since moving away I really realized what a gem this place is. We were in Denver area for a trip and made it a point to drive up just to have some of our favorite pizza. Staff is always friendly. The interior is eclectic and fun. Homemade ranch is yummy as a dipping sauce. I wish I could have pizza casbah at home. Until next time!

Worst pizza I've had in over a decade. Got it delivered... cold, rubbery, and zero sauce.

Seriously the best pizza around. I love the pizza and the staff. We've done delivery, pick up and dine in. It's always consistent and great. I love just a plain cheese but can't go wrong with any toppings. Love the size and the inside is too cool. I recommend them to everyone

1st their Pizza is really really good. 2nd we ordered from them about a week ago and there was a mix up and I had to call in about 2 hours not receiving my order. They were very nice and my order was at my door 30 minutes later. Well today as I was checking the mail I got a note from them saying sorry and a gift card! They really went above and beyond thanks!!

We ordered two pizzas last night. Done perfectly. Great tasting New York style pizza with excellent topping choices

We were staying in a nearby motel and were tired, cranky and hungry. And not in the mood to wait or to fuss. I called in an order and they didn't tell me when to come - just see you soon. So, I just headed over. And my pizza was ready and waiting and hot from the oven. Yay. I had ordered the The Grand Central (pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, onions, and black olives). Great combination. The sausage had a good flavor but was oddly soft (not uncooked, it was just the way it was crumbled, I think). My husband loved the sausage, I wasn't as much a fan. But overall taste - yum. Crust was tender, but the bottom was nice a crisp. I hate a limp pizza! We also got a Greek salad with gyro meat. The meat add on was only 50 cents! We got the full size salad which came in a little clam shell. The meat was cooked and given to us wrapped up in foil - so it didn't wilt our salad on the way back to the motel. The clam shell was a little hard for eating, but the salad was on point. I really like a salad when I have pizza. Two thumbs up for having a good salad selection. We didn't eat in (our dog was with us). But, it is a fun location. Pin ball games, etc. Just the right amount of funk. We will be back.

We were extremely disappointed in our pizza experience tonight. Pizza Casbah has been our go to place from before the COVID restrictions. We Have reviewed our wonderful experience several times. I started the order through Yelp @ 5:00 pm. We finally received our order @ 7:00pm. At 5:35 we finally received a text from Yelp that our order would be delivered at 6:13. At 6:45 I called to inquire as to the status of our order and was told that the delivery driver had just departed and we should expect delivery in 15 minutes or less. We live @ 5 minutes from the restaurant Our pizza finally arrived @ 7:00. The delivery person was very dismissive of our concerns, and the pizzas were cold. I guess it's time to experiment with other pizza delivery.

One of our family favorites. The decor is interesting - but the pizza is amazing! I don't think I ever make it home without eating at least a slice.

Never count on them for catering or large orders. We cater event for our company monthly, we have never had service this poor before. Clearly Pizza Casbah is not capable of accommodating large business orders, or isn't interested in doing so. Called several weeks in advance of a large ($450+) order to see if they could accommodate, we were told it would be no problem. Called a week prior to see when they needed our order submitted, again checking that they would be able to make our order, and were told "no problem, call back the day prior". Called back today to place the order, were told there was no way they would deliver it. Talked it over and decided we would send someone to pick up the almost $500 worth of food, called back and told them picking it up was no problem. The manager answered and told us they would not accept our order, had already told us they wouldn't, and had no interest in our business... If you're planning on a large event or catering, find ANYONE else. We do event for our company on a regular basis, generally catering for 40+, and have NEVER had an experience like this before. Absolute worst service you could possibly receive.

While their pizza rides on their former showing on the food network, their quality declines. The crust lacks flavor and definition, it tastes like cardboard gently covered in inedible cheese. The cheese is only for those stomachs who dare eat Taco Bell or McDonald's. The cheese will not reheat to the same or near close gooey goodness it was when it was fresh. Instead you are biting down on elastic rubber bands with hope that you won't need to buy a roll of tums later. ** Note this review is based on several visits and several stomach aches later and I do appreciate the business reaching out but my response is simply, not the pizza for me.

Best pizza I've had in Fort Collins! The giant slices are awesome, and one slice is more than enough to fill you up! The wait is relatively short even with personalized pizza slices. My only complaint is that the restaurant can be pretty loud and can be hard to order at times.

Love me some New York style pizza and had a coupon, so we decided to get this for dinner last night. We got takeout, and I was actually pretty surprised with how quickly we were able to get our pizza considering that it was a Friday night on Memorial Day weekend. The sauce was excellent, toppings were great and loads of cheese.. my only complaint is the dough. Absolutely tasteless, and the bottom was just a very strange texture... I guess the best way to sum it up was that it had no bite to it and was strangely chewy. Everything else about the pizza was great. My main complaint was the wings we ordered with it. They were ridiculously tiny and had almost no sauce.. buffalo wings should have ample sauce and not resemble frozen wings that you cook in an oven at home. Final thoughts: pretty good pizza, skip the wings if possible.

It was rainy and miserable on the Fourth of July and we were having trouble finding places open to grab some dinner. We were thrilled to find that Pizza Casbah was open for business so we stopped in, placed our order, and waited for our pizza to cook. It took about 30 minutes but that was fine, especially given the holiday and the volume of orders they had to work through. The pizza itself was good but not great. I've had better New York style pizza outside of New York. That being said, the staff was friendly and it was tasty enough to satisfy a pizza craving on a national holiday.
