Proto's Pizza | Denver — Restaurant in Denver

The pizza was so delicious! You could have a small pizza which is basically a personal size one with any of the specials or make your own.I had a delicious small pizza with Spinach, portobello mushrooms and tomato and mozzarella while my family had pepperoni, sausage, black olives which I had to taste and it was delightful.I also had a yummy Bloody Mary but they call it something else. The garnish included an olive and.pepper and lemon/lime. Sooo good! However, my son had a chocolate chip cookie sandwich with mint chocolate chip gelato and chocolate syrup drizzled all over and I had a little. Soooo heavenly.The cookies were nice and warm and melt in your mouth goodness. We had to go on our last day before heading home just for the chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich which I got my own. We had a very delicious pizza too and another Bloody Mary. The service is outstanding! The bar is so cool.The top is made out of mosaic. Highly recommend going there. We definitely will be returning when we visit Denver again which I hope will be soon.It will be the only pizza place we go to whenever in the Mile High City. They say there is no such thing as bad pizza well is there such things as heavenly earth shattering pizza. Absolutely and you'll find it at Pronto...

Just an outstanding destination not matter if your intention is drinks or food. I lived near here for years and because they are slightly hidden never tried it. 1.5 - 2 months ago that changed. The Pizza? INCREDIBLE. The spice, seasoning, meat, cheese (it's REAL cheeses so if lactose intolerant like me be aware). The Staff? The best I have seen in Denver in years and it's not even close - everyone is amazing and works hard while still being relaxed (anyone that's worked restaurants knows how dare that is). I honestly can't recommend this place enough and even if I move away from Denver this will be "my" spot. I didn't even mention the desserts... Which... Omg...

Also, last - the $$ price tag is totally overblown. One of the best deals in Denver by car. Almost don't want to share this because I want my own little secret.

Last/last/last. No - I was not paid at all for this. PROTOS is just that good. Pizza amazing, drinks generous, people amazing. Go here. But don't...

If you're gluten-free, skip this place. I ended up with a sorry excuse for a margherita pie. BTW, you can only order a GF medium pie. The crust is paper thin and tasteless. Communion wafers have more body and flavor. Every component was tasteless. What they call "red sauce" was huge pieces of crushed tomatoes straight out of the can. No spices, no olive, no nothing. There were tiny bits of basil sprinkled on top that you could hardly identify as such. The cheese might as well not even been on it because, again, I couldn't taste it. I had to douse my pizza with salt, parm and red pepper flakes for it to be barely edible. To top it all off, I paid $20 for it because of the gluten tax (upcharge for gluten free anything). Insane! It did not differ much from a regular cheese pizza that was advertised at $12. GF people stay away. You're better off with a frozen pizza.

The only good thing I can say is that the service was good. Our server was...
