"We keep wondering why Denver doesn’t have more New Haven style pies, but it could be that White Pie nails it so perfectly that no one else has the hubris to enter the scene. Besides the namesake white pie with crème fraiche, bacon, cremini mushrooms, and an oozing sunny egg, our favorite is the Porky Porkorino, and not just because we like saying the name. The soppressata, pickled jalapenos, and hot honey combo is one for the ages. Full of plants, sunshine, and backless stools, White Pie fills up fast (do other people not need lumbar support?), but you can order ahead for pickup and eat it on your ergonomic sofa." - allyson reedy
"With three communal tables lining its dining room, this Uptown parlor is all set to receive a gregarious gang with an appetite for pizzas aplenty, be it the crowd-pleasing Paulie Walnuts featuring mashed potatoes, bacon, and candied walnuts or the Detroit-style Spicy G, which boasts ricotta, pepperoni, pickled jalapeños, hot honey, and poppy seeds." - Ruth Tobias

"Though fraternal owners Kris and Jason Wallenta, who also run Dos Santos around the corner, opened this cozy Uptowner in honor of the New Haven–style parlors they grew up around in Connecticut, their menu is anything but beholden to tradition, East Coast or otherwise. Pies here come topped with everything from mashed potatoes, bacon, and candied walnuts to butternut squash, pumpkin seeds, and romesco sauce to Brie, Swiss, garlic crème fraîche, and smoked salt — and, with their distinctly irregular-shaped crusts, they look as well as taste as intriguing as they sound." - Paul Albani-Burgio
"A New Haven–style pizzeria offering thin, charred-crust pies that satisfy pizza purists looking for regional East Coast technique in Denver." - Ruth Tobias
