About this business

If you are looking for a budget-priced, family-friendly Italian restaurant, consider this north Denver institution. Carl's Pizzeria has been serving pizza, spaghetti, and other Italian fare from its modest location on 38th Avenue since 1953. Décor consists of plain white walls and vinyl tablecloths, but the friendly service always makes you feel welcome. Bring the kids and spread out in a spacious booth as you wait for your order. Pizza, obviously, is the item of choice. Limited delivery is available.

Been going to Carl's for years! – The service has always been great, and the food is delicious. Its an old North Denver pizza house...I don't know what is wrong with the other spoiled folks who have reveiwed this small restaurant. Seems to be highly favored by those who live in the neighborhood...(which I don't). We love Carl's!

Best Pizza in North Denver..Hands down – I am biased of course,since my family has been eating there for over 40 years,plus my Dad worked there in high school.Yes the atmosphere is old...but it is not pretentious like most pizza places seem to be these day,its not fake it is what it is!Carl recently passed away and it is now in new hands,it is small and Carl never cared about the profits just serving good pizza to a small loyal following!The wait has always been long,we learned a long time ago to call ahead,if you have ever ... read more

I got sick from eating here – I recently visited Carls and was a little concerned about the cleanliness of the restaurant. It's a small restaurant, it was crowded, and very hot. We sat right near the kitchen, which looked less than pristine. The cook was wiping sweat from his forehead very near to his hands. We ordered salads, cheese sticks, and a pizza. the salads weren't very fresh, the cheese sticks were O.K., and the pizza didn't set well with my stomach. And 20 minutes later it all came back up after we had left the res... read more

OLD FASHIONED, BRING BACK MEMORIES GOOD TASTING PIZZA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! – Carls Pizza is one of the best tasting pizzas in the denver area, It definitly lacks atmosphere, and the service is not the best. But if you want pizza that acually tastes like PIZZA. This is the place. For those of you who remember the old BOBS pizza in southwest Denver. The pizza tastes very close . The reason is that Bob and Carl (both desceased) were 1/2 brothers. We drive all the way from Highlands Ranch to enjoy this pizza and will continue to unt... read more

Horrible service! – It is friday night and we ordered our pizza over 1 hour 1/2. Called to find out if it was on the way the woman said she had no ticket for our ordered! We gave a credit card number to please check to see if we got charged. She comes back and says she found the order but forgot to place it. NO APOLOGY, nothing. Will never ordered from this place again!

Worst Delivery Service Ever. Decent Pizza – We decided to order a pizza from Carl's at 8:45 pm on a Saturday Night. Now, I am sure they were extremely busy with it being the weekend and a Bronco's game in progress. We were given no estimated delivery time. We waited until 10:00 pm before we called again to find out the status of our order. The lady told me only that it was "on the way" before she hung up on me. The pizzas finally arrived at about 10:15. The driver made no mention of the wait, did not offer an apology, nor di... read more
