But no matter where you think the Mile High ranks, it's undeniable that the metro area's pizza options — and the area's pizza styles — are plentiful these days. From Monday, October 21, through Sunday, October 27, we're celebrating the glorious combination of dough, sauce and cheese with Denver Pizza Week — the ideal excuse to get out and try some new pies and maybe win some prizes, too. Over a dozen restaurants are participating by offering a $10 pie (while supplies last). Using the Denver Westword Pizza Week app, diners can check in to earn points for every pie they try. If you hit up four spots, you'll be entered to win the grand prize, a $500 Visa gift card. You can view the full list of participating pizzerias and what they're serving at pizzaweekdenver.com. Here are some highlights: Gusto: Amalfi PieChoLon chef/owner Lon Symensma debuted his Italian restaurant Gusto near Sloan's Lake in March. During Pizza Week, stop by to try its citrus-spiked take on a white pizza, the Amalfi Pie with confit lemon, Calabrian chile, Pecorino and ricotta.Rosso Pomodoro: MargheritaThis Italian-born chain chose Denver's Central Park neighborhood for its first standalone location in the U.S. It debuted in June and is offering its signature classic Margherita pie for Pizza Week, made with San Marzano tomato sauce, mozzarella, fresh basil and extra-virgin olive oil. Denver Milk Market: Pizza a la VodkaThere have been some changes at this Dairy Block food hall since ownership changed from Bonanno Concepts to Sage Hospitality Group, including the recent addition of Fuso, a new pizza and pasta concept. Its $10 Pizza Week special, Pizza a la Vodka, is made with vodka tomato cream sauce, fresh mozzarella, Parmesan and fresh basil.Anthony's Pizza: 12-inch New York-style cheeseIf you, like Kevin from Home Alone, prefer simplicity for your pizza fix, you cannot go wrong with this Denver-born chain that's also celebrating its fortieth anniversary this month. Cucina Bella: DiavolaThis small strip-mall spot near the Denver-Aurora border was opened by two brothers in 2022 and remains off the radar for many. But it shouldn't, and Pizza Week is the ideal time to drop by for a taste — starting with its $10 special, the Diavola topped with San Marzano tomato sauce, mozzarella, spicy salumi, ricotta cheese, Calabrian chile oil and oregano. </div></body>
