Beau Jo's Reviews

Super long wait time. Pizza so greasy and up with stomach ache and vomiting. Expensive. Crowded.

Delicious pizza. Staff are following appropriate Covid protocols for spacing tables.

Wow! Love their pizza. That thing was huge and so good. The sauce and crust were wonderful. We will be going back.

A must after any mountain trip! If you haven't tried the mountain pie, you haven't really done Colorado! Order by the pound- waiters can help you decide how much you need. Save your crust to dip in honey for dessert. Amazing historic building just keeps going- great place for families and large groups. Excellent gluten free options too!

What looks like a tourist trap restaurant is actually a 150 year old museum quality building housing some of the best pizza in the country. Beau Jo's is a local pizza chain that started in this location making their now famous Colorado style pizza. Soft puffy crust, house made sauces, a plethora of gourmet quality toppings (go for the prime rib), real honey to spread out dip your leftover crust...if you have any. A fresh salad bar hides out in antique claw foot bathtubs full of ice, and the extensive maze of a building is full of antiques and artifacts from its long history. They invite you to explore even the closed off rooms; try counting the bullet holes in the wood, brick, and mortar walls. Splurge for dessert if you can, the skillet made cheesecake cookie pie is amazing.

Love going here. Moved out of state and this will always be my go to for amazing pizza anytime I'm in town.

Fun place!
Lots of seating!
Had both pizzas of the different crusts. Deep is great tasting but leaving a lot of crust at the end. Thinner leaves more ingredients on it.
Go for it!

I'm a pretty big fan of Beau Jo's "Colorado style" pizza! I love that they offer honey to dip the crust! Their salad bar is clean and well stocked. I've never been when they're not busy. It's always a warm, welcoming, bustling environment, friendly service, and tons of space. This place is a lot bigger than Evergreen's. Expect a wait in all seasons, pretty much a fan favorite. Summer to ski season, always ready to serve hot pizza and so much more! Do us all a favor and skip the one time use products, plastic straws, bags. Let's keep Colorado green!

I first talked with Randy one of the managers and he was able to answer all of my dietary questions. Once I arrived at the store Alex another manager was more than helpful with confirming my questions. Caitlyn, our server was very patient and professional, and she made the trip worth the hype! Huge shout out to this company!!! The food and service was great.

Good service, great pizza. Gets busy during lunch, but if you can spare the time it's worth it. Great variety in toppings, and the crust is the main draw.

Their mountain pies are to die for. Our pizza was made wrong the first time, but we had no idea because they quickly fixed the error. Our server, Michelle, brought out the "messed up" pizza so hold us over while our original pizza was finishing up. We never would have known because the pizza didn't take much longer anyway. She was very courteous. And she even gave us extra honey to use for the extra pizza we had leftover. We've been to the Arvada establishment, and while it was awesome too, the crust and service here blew that one out of the water.

The server was very accommodating in letting me order an ice cream sundae, which isn't on the menu, and the kitchen did an amazing job in putting it together! I also want to say how much I appreciate being able to charge my electric car for free here, courtesy of Beau-Jo's Pizza in Idaho Springs! Thank you so much! This charger made my trip along I-70 possible in my 2015 Nissan Leaf!

Expect to wait for a table and food, but this is more of an experience than a meal and the food is excellent!

It's a mountain staple. Mountain pie with honey? Yes please.

Really good food. The first choice is the Beaugetti. (Pasta bowl) the second is the Medium Pizza with pepperoni and hamburger. The last was an appetizer called honey cheese sticks. All were great choices.

Amazing pizza, even their gluten free crust is awesome!

Honey with your crust is the best part! Pizza is good too!

Always worth the wait and the experience. Put the honey on the crust and enjoy

The pizza was good, not great, but a good pie. My complaint really was with how expensive the pizza was. I personally prefer Chicago Style deep dish to this, but they are completely different styles.

Good food, cheaper than most places. Small pizza is a good size for one or two people and has a great few specialty toppings you should try.

Great food! Pizza was great! Salad bar was average, but something unexpected in a good way.

I was told I was not a real Coloradan until I had the pizza here. Lol was not disappointed!

Great food just really slow bringing it out to the table.

This place was recommended by folks I met while on visit to Denver. I loved the thick (mountain) honey crust and the pizza was sooo delicious. Didn't think Colorado pizza could possibly beat NY but this was best ever!

Awesome place to get some unique Pizza. Yummy testing pizza with super thick edge crust.

This place is a Colorado tradition. They have expanded their menu and have something for everyone. Expect a wait, but it's worth it.

So much fun! This place holds so many memories for our family!

A great pizza place on the way back from the mountains. Don't let the big parking lot detour you, the restaurant is big! The pizza is good, and the extra crust and honey make a simple dessert. Service is usually good, sometimes a little slow.

This location is super busy! The pizza is decent. However, you may want to think before you get a $$ side salad. As the lettuce was soggy and slimy. The service was poor. But since it so busy that might come with the territory. I guess that is to be expected. If your looking for a clean dinning experience ... this may not be the place for you.

Service is great and friendly. I take friends here when they are visiting as it's a great spot to get off i25 on the way back to Denver.

Great salad bar. Good pizza. Perfect stop on the way to winter park from DEN

Delicious food. Friendly service. Decent price. I'd recommend it if your looking to stop for a good meal.

Best Gluten Free Dairy Free pizza around. Go for the garlic and olive oil sauce and then any specialty pizza! TO DIE FOR. Wish I had a picture for you but I couldn't get one in time because my pizza was gone

Always a great atmosphere. They text you when you seats available and the new digital menus are very nice.

Always great pizza!! Salad bar is amazing!! Staff was a bit slow and forgetful. Had to wait a long time for to go items.

Always busy, but good service, nice local beer selection, and excellent pizzas. The calzones are huge and stuffed with well seasoned meats and cheeses, and the pizzas (especially the mountain pies) are outstanding - try the cajun, and the sky hawk, if you like a spicey pie!

Went there with a large group (17). We called ahead and they were able to seat us quickly and have the food out very quickly. The pizza is delicious. Will be back!

I brought friends here that were visiting from New Zealand. It seemed a bit run down compared to when I'd gone there in the past. The prices were ok, the service was mediocre. The atmosphere was casual. The decorations are fun for someone who's never been there. The pizza was still very good after all the years I've been going. They had gluten free options which was a bonus. Maybe it just needs to be refreshed!

Amazing pizza with a "twisted "crust. Outstandingly different honey dipping sauce. Great service as well. Great building with a lot of history.

Went there on a Sunday night and 3 of the draft beers I wanted they were out of. Ordered a pizza with salad bar. Went through the salad bar once, and when we went back it was all cleared away. It was only 6:00 and they did not close till 9:00. Pizza, well I have had better. Would not go out of my way to go there again.

The pizza is delicious and all the crusts are great with honey. It's a bit overpriced, but something everyone should experience while in Idaho Springs. You can ask for pizzas that are half one flavor and half the other.

As Colorado-style pizza goes, I prefer Woodys pizza in Golden, CO.

Beau Jo's is a Colorado icon. Love the mountain pie!

Great town, great pizza. Perfect for anyone visiting Colorado, or if you re born&raised.

Really great pizza! Definitely worth a stop, but I suspect this place gets really busy. We stopped for lunch on a Thursday and was a 20 min wait.

A little pricey, but we'll worth it if you want more flavor than a typical pizza chain. This is gooooood food.

This review is based solely on the gluten free pizza crust. It was honestly terrible. I've had many gluten free crusts that are decent if not delicious, but this was not one of them. It was thin, soggy and bland and took away from the AMAZING toppings! Yes, the toppings were amazing, but the crust made the pizza unenjoyable. Very disappointing performance for such a renowned pizza place.

Beau Jo's was recommend by friends. We are glad we took their advice. The pizza and service were excellent. The salad bar was a nice treat. The decor is rustic. The salad bar is in old claw bathtubs. We will definitely go again.

Really not as special as locals make it out to be. I'm sure it's great if you grew up with it. If not, nothing special.

Easily the biggest restaurant I've ever seen though...

Beau jo's always has amazing food. With the covid 19 going on i was very pleased with how the tables were set up and we had excellent service

The pizza was so good and the crust was fun to save and put honey on at the end Idaho Springs is such a fun little town with great places to eat and I highly recommend this place!

I came here to watch the fireworks on 4th of July and it was amazing. I love the pizza and the parking lot was perfect for fireworks.

Huge pizza place in Idaho Falls that is very well managed with way better than average food.

Locals said we had to try the Pizza. It was great. The crust with Honey was like a dessert. We also had the cobbler and ice cream and it was awesome

Amazing food and atmosphere!! Staff are super friendly.. must try!!!

Unique pizza experience. We had kalamata olives fresh basil and hatch green Chili's. Baail was fresh I appreciate that these guys bill them selves as a true Colorado pizza instead of trying to recreate a NY or Chicago pizza.

Always tasty. Good atmosphere. Great place to stop on the way back to Denver.

Crowd favorite when driving down after a weekend in the mountains

Went to get a (vegan) pizza pie. The service was fantastic, the place is super cozy (it was snowing outside) and I loved the old maps and decor here. The pizza crust was amazing, but it was a little dry. We asked for some olive oil but I think if you make a vegan pizza you should always compensate by adding some extra sauce. Also, we subbed the cheese for an extra ingredient but then got charged for it on the bill (which they fixed after we spoke up). It was good, would go again.

Favorite pizza in Colorado. We come from Colorado Springs for it. They are the best and even make us our favorite pizza from years ago that isn't on the menu anymore. The crust with honey is my family's favorite!
