I’d really love to give this place a 5 but I can’t. Gotta stay true to me.
The service was wonderful, the owner amazing, they seemed really busy and I can see why (I think the only pizza place in Black Hawk?
So that said it he pizza itself is mediocre at best. Is it pizza and you’ll still get your craving fulfilled? Yup!
A few small things could turn it from mediocre to good though (pictures will explain). So this is made on a smaller deck oven and their ability to get that crust edge color to what they did is impressive. However it goes in on a pan so the under carriage was quite pale. I attempted to fix such when I got home and threw it in my wood fire oven a bit. This did indeed improve such (second 2 pictures).
Unfortunately their sauce was pretty bland but did its job. Needs a tad more sugar and a lot more garlic (some black pepper too).
That said, any pizza place who has GREEN CHILI on their toppings list will get my business when I’m in area.
Good place...
Read moreAfter an afternoon of hiking with 2 children, we decided to stop for pizza before the hour long ride home to Centennial.

Then they greeted us when we arrived with coloring activity sheets for the kids, full size jenga, and bean bag toss on the patio with a beautiful view of the mountains, moon, and starts. Another 10/10 for the atmosphere. Then the pizza arrived and they were fresh, exactly what we ordered, and delicious. 10/10 for food. I highly recommend a stop at Black Hawk Pizza if you’re...
Read moreWe were leaving Hidee Gold Mine Tours in central City and i-70 was backed up so we decided to come down the canyon and try the new pizza place on the way. We caught the owner Mike flipping pizzas and had a great time talking with him over a pie. We got the house special and had some extra to take home to see if it passed my ultimate test, is it good the next day? That's where good ingredients show through, anyone can make one taste good right out of the oven but how does it handle a reheat? The pizza was great again the next day as well for a tasty quick lunch! We will definitely make this a regular stop when we go down 119 and congratulations Blackhawk pizza,...
