Mary and Stan suggested this place while visiting with them along with Jim and Ginger. It's up on Pearl Street in Boulder, though a few blocks east of the pedestrian mall section. My (3 of 5 stars "A-OK") review from Yelp:
—–
It was an early dining experience — getting there about 4 p.m. on a Saturday. Interestingly, the place was packed then, and actually had more open space by the time we were done around 5:45.
We were a party of seven, which in the tight quarters made for an awkward mash-up of a round table and a smaller square one.
The pizzas themselves are an odd lot of interesting flavor combinations, all individual-sized (if large), Neapolitan-style, all built and hand-baked in the oven in the center of the room. I had a Diavola pizza, slightly spicy, good flavors, great crust, a bit runny in the middle.
The combos might put off someone who is looking for standard pizza parlor fare. It was unclear how much you could tailor the selection, and I didn't see a pepperoni on the whole menu.
The wine list is extensive to the point of being daunting, even for someone with wide experience. It's also pricey — $30 to $3200. That said, there's some good descriptions, a wide variety for different tastes, and an offer for sommelier help (which is odd-feeling in a pizzeria). There's also beer and a limited amount of soda.
Service was helpful, but very busy. Ambiance was trendy, utilitarian, and a bit loud.
Overall, definitely worth (even with the price tag) the visit. I don't know that I would go out of my way to revisit again, but I wouldn't turn down an invitation.
