Beau Jo's Reviews

Nice waitress really good pizza everything went really well until we laughed had to exit through the bar the children we're looking at the mining area behind us and we told him come on let's go and they ran to catch up and the bartender yell no running to the children which was a little hurtful after we spend so much money in that joint. Maybe they should have a sign up that says no children may enter through the rear entrance of the bar although it does say enter here with no restrictions thanks anyway appreciated the hot food.

Yummy!!! Great service, awesome atmosphere n good prices.

Good pizza and beer, busy on the weekends but that's why I'm local.

Six of us dined here and all were very happy with the entire experience. The pizza is called "Colorado Style". It has a thick tasty crust and a very large amount of toppings. This is one of my new favorite pizza places.

Food was fine but temperature was unbearably hot in the restaurant.

Stick with the pizza. The rest of the menu is lacking in quality

Amazing service, fresh salad bar and
Most delicious pizza in town!

Best pizza in the USA, but don't expect it to be New York or Chicago style. It is a creation all its own, and it is definitely one to make you wanting to return again and again.

Great food, nice atmosphere, seated our group of 7 fast, just slightly slow service, would recommend.

The pizza is awesome and the staff is knowledgeable. Me and my family will he returning for more pizza.

Best pizza in Idaho Springs without question, and my favorite pizza West of Denver. I make a stop in here every time I pass. The wait isn t usually that bad. All of the sauces are flavorful and the toppings are fresh. Vegetarian or meat heavy, they re all good. Cant beat the flavor of putting honey on the crust when you re done, too.

The pizza is really good and they have a variety of pizza you won't find anyplace else. The crust is s bit heavy but some people are really into it. Great food. The Idaho springs location is extra cool with the east portal to the Phoenix gold mine tucked away inside

The OG beau Jo's, a must stop for any beau enthusiast.

Original Beau Jo's and still the best. Great views of the waterfall, fun mountain atmosphere and in the heart of down town Idaho springs. What more could you ask for?

Usually I love this place... but the gluten free pizza we tried was icky and overpriced

awesome service, massive dining room meant no wait, great pizza and the honey on the crust was out of this world

Best pizza place in the country. And thanks to Chip for hosting a huge party for local celebrity Al Mosch last fall. Al died Monday morning.

Love the pizza and salad bar and the old building and atmosphere is cool but other Beau Jo's have better service. They're always kind of slow here. Also, I sat in a chair covered in honey, told the waiter and he said thanks and put it at another table without cleaning it and then they sat another person in it before I could warn her.

We had a lovely time and our waitress was really nice. Trouble is the next day let's just say the food faught back. I am not sure what oils they are using but let's just say they where not digestible and caused Leakage. Yeah I know TMI but both my wife and I had the same issue. The food tasted great but wow did we pay for it.

Always like stopping by here for great pizza on the way home!

First time here and it's super good....really like the atmosphere as well as the salad bar in the claw bathtub...also great pizza dough and lots of choices

My party of two enjoyed a thin crust pizza (8 small slices) with classic red sauce, mushrooms, and turkey pepperoni. Additionally, I had the salad bar ($6) and my husband a lemonade ($3). Everything was DELICIOUS and cost $27.

Setting: Casual restaurant with lots of seating. Located on the main in street with views if the mountain side.

Drinks: Fountain drinks and alcohol offered.

Groups: Large groups can be accommodated.

Pricing: A bit pricey for a very small pizza with two toppings. However, given the wonderful flavor of the pie, would buy it again when in the area.

Service: Quick and friendly.

Parking: Street and lot available for a fee. However, parking was free on the day we visited.

** The turkey pepperoni tasted like turkey bacon, especially the crispy slices. Eight slice pizza was slightly larger than a dinner plate.

Overall great food! Service was not the best but still pretty good. Would head back :)

If you like pizza, this place is worth to try. The mountain pie has regular thin crunchy crust in the middle plus thick crust on the outside, which you can dip in the honey (it s a thing for this place). The crust is crispy and the bread is soft. They also have thin crust pizza as well. 1 pound mountain pie can be good for 2 people if not super hungry. The thick crust is definitely filling. It s a bit of wait, but worth for the taste! I got the hamburger and sausage 1 pound mountain pie, and I enjoyed it!

Great pizza, but was told 20 minutes for take out and was actually 53 minutes.

Really great place to eat we had the calzones one veggie one Italian sausage mush onion. Ingredients fresh flavors balances delicious was about a 30 min wait from order to eat so call ahead or order on line if your in a hurry!

Everything is just so amazing the food is delicious

I first started enjoying their amazing pizza when I was a college student at Boulder way, way back in 1975! Eating at Beau Jo's was as much of an "event" as the day of skiing at Copper or Vail. It made the day complete, and it is as great a place today, as it was all those years ago. Some things are true "classics", and Beau Jo's is one of those places. Keep it going!

Been going there for over 25years still great pizza.

The mountain pies are a Colorado classic that should not be missed. This original location is also quite interesting. Combine that with the friendly, efficient wait staff and it's easy to see why it's so popular. The prices are high, bordering on ludicrous though.

I usually like a thin New Yorker style pizza but their Mountain style Pizza is amazing! The honey on the crust is the perfect finish.

Excellent food and service! We enjoyed the vibe at the Idaho Springs location

Fantastic pizza! Best crust around! I didn't give it a full 5 stars due to I was with a large group with reservations and it seemed they were not fully prepared. Not enough cups and plates and so we had to wait.

Always have to make a stop here for the famous pizza.

This was my second time at getting a pizza. 3 years ago I had 2 pizzas with my son. We sat down and had a good meal and good service. It was a bit pricey ( we added toppings but the amount of toppings were small ).

This go around was during the whole Covid19 deal. I ordered a pie to go with extra toppings. Yes, it was again pricy but everything again tasted good and was fresh. The topping portions were small.......again.

I do recommend if you are able to sit relax and enjoy the ambiance and pizza.

I go once every couple months. The food is always fantastic. Hit and miss on the service. Not horrible service just okay. Most times it is great.

It s just normal pizza like anywhere else except for the crust and honey combination. It s the honey which is so yummy and tastes so different. Good customer service, Michelle was so amazing with her suggestions and was friendly.

A Colorado staple that shouldn't be missed if you're heading past on i70. If you only get one thing, make sure it's a mountain pie.

A very popular pizza place with very unique creations. I recommend the Dude Ranch.

This iconic Colorado restaurant is a must for pizza lovers! The food is good and the atmosphere just adds to the experience. Don't forget to wander through town into the local shops!

Hands down best pizza I've had in a long time. Service was great. Beer was excellent

Awesome and yummy food but long wait to get in and wait till u get the food!

Awesome pizza. They were packed, but service was still very good. We will be stoping by every time we head into the mountains.

Best pizza ever. Nothing like going to the original. Idaho Springs is just so much fun

Friendly service and great pizza with HONEY on the crust.

The best Pizza I have ever had!! We stopped in on vacation our server was sooo nice!! The pizza was Ammmmmmazing! Thank you all for the great experience

Amazing place to eat, may seem busy, but well worth the wait. I would definitely get the Motherload

The original Colorado Mountain Pie is a family favorite. If there is a wait, it generally move pretty quick.

The pizza was ok but very expensive. The service was slow and our appetizers came out about 2 minutes before the pizza.

never bad. always good. go here. you might be able to bring your dog, you might not - good luck figuring that out

I liked the concept, menu options, and overall the food was good. Better pizza than most restaurants. But I wanted to give this place 3.5 stars since the execution was problematic. The Sriracha hummus came with frozen veggies that thawed into mush. Dipping the pizza crust in honey was okay but a spicy marinara would be better.

Amazing as always. Love the food and that there is turkey pepperoni!! Fun atmosphere and great people.

Great atmosphere, great food & a wonderful staff. I had what is probably the best pizza ever here. I'm gluten-free & dairy free so I chose the Mediterranean Pizza without cheese.........AMAZING!
We came from Wisconsin to visit my cousin & his family. After hiking & shopping in Georgetown we stopped here for a late dinner. We also watched the Badger game & relaxed.
Thank you!

It's a Colorado tradition. Whenever you're in the mountains and going back to Denver you have to stop and get Beau Jo's. This is the original location. If you have not tried mountain pie pizza what are you waiting for. The mountain crust is great pick your pizza from recommend topping or make your own. For appetizers I recommend the Honey Cheesy bread. It's so good. We always order a bigger pizza so we can have leftovers. Also try honey on the mountain crust at least once before you think us Coloradans crazy. They also have a great selection of beer for the thirsty. So next time you're on your way back or to the mountains try stopping at Beau Jo's for some Pie.

Thick pizzas with great flavor! The decor is cool to look at.

Good pizza. We have made this a family tradition when we pass through. Pale ale from Westbound and Down.

The original Beau Jo's. Can be busy during the Ski rush on I-70, but still a great place to stop.

The pizza was good, but not $42 good, which is how much we were charged for a large two topping pizza. With that being said, the service and atmosphere were great!

We went for my boyfriend's 40th birthday. They let us decorate the table and bring in our own cake. They also give a complementary chocolate moulton lava cake for birthdays, which was SO delicious that we didn't even get to the cake we brought ourselves. Service was amazing! Friendly, attentive, and timely. The decor is warm and inviting. The artichoke dip appetizer in a bread bowl was amazing! And the pizza was fresh and the crust is delicious with their clove honey to drizzle on it.

Covid-19 specifics: Tables were very appropriately distanced, all staff were wearing their masks correctly and keeping with social distancing, as were all patrons. The restaurant, bathrooms included, was very clean. We felt very comfortable and safe. Thank you for contributing to a great 40th for my boyfriend!

I'm not even kidding this is the worst pizza I've ever had. It was $24 for not even a regular sized pie. Honestly I've had better at Dominoes.

That our server has been there for 15 years+ says it all. The food, service and restaurant were all great.

We love Beau Jo's. Service is great, pizza is unique to Colorado and always good! The atmosphere is fun in an old mining town house. Salad bar is a little lacking but we generally don't go for the salad.

Was recommended by friends to try this place. The salad bar was pretty lacking and not the cleanest. The pizza was just okay but there was a lot of crust.

Love this place, always stop here on the way back from the mountains,

Amazing. Service wasn't great and food came out slow, but when it arrived, it was delicious as always

Best place to eat. A must stop each time we are in town driving through. Food is amazing, worth the wait. Friendly staff as well as a great atmosphere
