Is it uptown? No but it is old school, in Rico's is damn near an institution. It is 100% great food with great service. Full stop. Their calzones are the best in the metro area.

I HAVE BEEN BY HERE SO MANY TIMES AND FINALLY DECIDED TO STOP IN. The sandwich was so good! I ordered the Bronx and the fresh baked roll, the bake on it..it was delicious. I also ordered a slice of cheese for my buddy and it was very good as well. I am so glad that I stopped in. Giant sub and a slice for 14 bucks is a great deal. They also have great lunch specials.

Best pizza I’ve had in years! The pizza tasted like good old fashioned pizza, nothing fancy, but oh so good!

I've been going here since the 90's when the meatball sub was only a dollar. Still a great deal at $4, stop in and give em a try.

Ok so this tiny Pizzeria has my heart. It really reminds me of my time in the big Apple. The food is always good and the service comes with a smile every time.Come with your paper game up. A whole pizza with two toppings will hit you $$. But trust me it's worth it.

Friendly service; food was fine (we had chicken Parm and manicotti--chicken was very good, sauce and spaghetti was alright, manicotti could have had more filling.) Drinks get 1 refill. TV was pretty loud especially since it is such a small space.

Amazing throwback to the days when independently owned small restaurants brought Denver. Great! On the cheap.Rico's pizzeria is a true gem. They have highly affordable lunch specials and generally good foodAnother huge plus, is they have their own parking lot. No parking blocks away and walking to the restaurant, you can park right in their lot.This is February 2024... Fingers crossed. Nothing changes.

Decent food and prices, but I just can't get past what a hot mess this place is. First time we ordered from here, my penne rose was missing entirely. The second time we ordered, what was supposed to be stuffed shells ended up being fettuccine and the blue cheese dressing we ordered was creamy Italian. Every time I've gone in there to pick up food it's a madhouse and the employees are incredibly flustered like they've never seen customers before. Totally fed up with the fact that my order is always wrong.
