This place is hoping. We met our friends there for a vegan dinner and man was it good. Ok as I said the place was hoping but we only waited 10 to 15 minutes to be seated. Once seated our order was taken. Since it's a build your own pizza let me say this, they offer a wide variety of ingredients to make your pizza. We built our vegan pizza and man did it taste good. The ambience of this place is absolutely warm and friendly. With multiple wide screen TVs all the games were on. It's cool to have a beer and pizza and watch all the games that Denver's sports teams are playing now. Good food, beverage, service and atmosphere who could ask for anything more. read more

Esters always seem to be busy, and I finally got a seat at the community tables. The food was good enough but nothing to rave about. The nachos were unique and tasty to have an impact, but the wings were average at best. Esters seems like a place you'd go after a soccer game with your kids to celebrate with a little extra cash to spend. If I do go back, I'll try the pizza as that did look good, but overall the food was overpriced for the quality. Maybe they'll have a burger you can order the next time. read more

Went on a Saturday afternoon and were seated right away. The place is pretty big with plenty of tvs to watch any games. It seems like they have a heated patio that maybe gets open in the summertime. The service was great and QUICK we were very hungry ordered an appetizer but the food came minutes after. The pizzas are medium side and very thin. The Cesar salad was good- hint of lemon! The pizza felt heavy in the stomach but it was prettty delicious. seems they have drinks special and a fun environment. Saw some yummy cocktails and a selection of whiskeys. read more

Feels like you're stepping into someone's house. The pizza was excellent. Definitely exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend. Each pizza feeds about 1.25 people. The flavors are balanced and thought out so I reconnect you don't deviate from the pre existing options unless you want to risk being not as impressed with the pizza. The layout of the restaurant is a little funky, for football or any sports for that matter you'll a seat in the back. Didn't try try dessert but know that they will deliver on it as well. Ask for a table inside, I would gladly wait for one deeper in the restaurant. That is my only gripe with this spot. Green pepper chili powder is excellent as well. read more

I have been going here for years now and I love this place. We order for work fairly often and they have a great lunch special. You get a pizza (smaller than a typical one but still fairly large) and a salad. I usually get the Ya Mar pizza and Cesar salad and it doesn't disappoint. The pizza always has a nice kick to it but not too spicy and I love their Cesar dressing. They are quick too when ordering online. read more

This place is super popular, but the pizza was not my personal favorite. I ordered a cheese pizza with sautéed mushrooms for takeout. It was ready on time, which I appreciated. However, the pizza was a bit of a letdown. The sauce had a good flavor but a strange mealy texture which was hard to ignore. The cheese and mushrooms were nice, but I found the crust a bit tough and dry. For the price, I do not think I'll be returning, especially with the number of great pizza places in Denver. A lot of people seem to like this place, so maybe I caught them on an off night. read more

We always order the Fee Pizza (BBQ Sauce, Mozzarella, Cheddar, Ale Braised BBQ Pork, Caramelized Onions, Jalapeños, Bacon and Cilantro), this time sub pork for chicken... They were also offering the Cheeseburger Pizza and it tasted just as it sounds with a heathy serving of burger sauce!

The pizza is delicious. We were pleasantly surprised with the flavors. From the menu, anyone can tell pizzas are their specialty. However, the service was awful. We recognized that it isn't the server's fault. It is Management's fault for seating too many diners and not providing the capacity to take care of the numerous diners. For example, a party of five seated after us, were served their brunch order before us, a party of two. We used a BOGO. It's how we discovered the restaurant. The ambiance was exciting and nicely decorated with television. It is a good space. read more

Food is good, service is good, parkingis difficult. It's fine, not amazing. I wish they would keep the blueberry habanero wings on the menu all the time, THOSE are amazing. I'm a little surprised a place that clearly tries to promote a hippie vibe with tie dye shirts and food named after Phish songs puts veal in their meatballs. Veal? Really? read more

Esters is a great spot to grab a quick lunch. We had limited time, but our server was efficient and took our order and got us our food in record time. We tried two pizza and they were delicious! The Catapult was fantastic! Esters homemade sausage and the caramelized onions made it one of the best sausage pizzas I've had. We also tried the Prince Caspian and the Gargonzola cheese, figs and prosciutto were the most amazing paring! The pizzas were also so perfectly cooked - a golden brown crust that was crunchy but still chewy! read more

Loved this place for a long time. There isn't much around in this neighborhood and they finally got a cool hip restaurant. Pizza is awesome, beer list on point. Great wings and tvs for sports. They have a nice covered patio, they have it all! But seriously the pizza is really good and that's why you should come! Parking used to be a little more limited but they have opened some spots on the street and there are a lot more options. read more

Nice neighborhood restaurant with quality food and great service. Awesome pizza! Not that I am in a rut, I've been to Esther's half a dozen times in the past year and all I ever order is pizza. What can I say! Could handle a baseball team,( with a call ahead ), the back rooms are spacious! Be on the look out for it at Jewel and Holly, it's a hidden gem of a place! read more

Great beer selection, fun atmosphere! Parking lot was completely full at the VERY early dinner hour on a Sunday. And there were a handful of "No Restaurant Parking" signs in the lot. Lost a star for weirdly subpar pizza. Other pizzas that came out looked so much better. Ours was flat and greasy. read more

Esters Virginia Village - Great food - Pizza Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We have friends that live close to this Esters location so have been here a couple times as part of a large party. Nice and open bar and seating area with plenty of TV's for watching sports. Ordered their nachos and a couple pizzas that were prepared quickly and brought out to the table. I have to say that this place knows how to construct their nachos. Arriving in a circular shape maximizing the topping to chip ratio, the nachos look to be prepared from the bottom up eliminating the issues of dry chips that are usually found at the bottom of the pile seeing no love from the cheese or other toppings. Tried their prince capsian pizza this time and although not my favorite, was expertly crafted with well disbursed toppings and arugula salad. Solid restaurant with good service and food. read more

Let's be upfront about why I removed a star. I checked into this spot a week ago and alerted folx that the restaurant is not dog friendly. A parking spot outside for dogs is appreciated but it's still not dog friendly if you are looking to train your dog or expect an actual dog friendly location. Please also note that ALL places are required to be ADA compliant so "dog friendly" really does mean that dogs are allowed even when they're not service animals. Even after that the business has still not updated their information. Service really cannot make up for that inconvenience. It meant that I took up a spot until my dog settled and potentially meant that a server was taking care of an area that wasn't theirs; had it been a busier day I can see how other guests would've been inconvenienced and how the servers would be struggling. Giving my dog water when I already had a water bowl further showed how this location didn't really attend to the guests' actual needs; I would've preferred that they tailored their response to me, and all I wanted was accuracy on their yelp page. If you're looking for food, the food is great. Definitely try out whatever fruity pie is on their menu too! And I don't want to be entirely rude to a pizza spot that I love; the owner certainly seems to have kept delivery options updated! So please go visit a location most convenient to you! Or in a more walkable area. Oneida park doesn't allow dogs on their patio either but there are more spots to tie up dogs along the fence, and there are plenty of other shops in the area too. read more

We had a private celebration of life gathering at Esters Virginia Village and it was fantastic. Esters was a recommendation from friends that frequently visit one of their two other restaurants in the Denver area. The place itself was very unassuming, kind of a hole in the wall in an old strip mall that has been around for many years. There was a fee to reserve the backroom for private party that included food and drinks, the price was very reasonable. We reserved the backroom for four hours with a buffet style food approach consisting of different pizza's, wings, hummus/pita, and salad. Everybody was very satisfied with the food and the staff kept bringing more until everybody was full. The place included a full bar and various beers on tap including Colorado craft beers - good selection! The staff was beyond fantastic, very attentive, responsive, and flexible to guests wishes. My only complaint is the backroom was dark. No windows or natural light except from the front of the restaurant that barely peeked in. They supported our event by having all the TVs show a continuous slideshow loop of pictures that we created of the family member who passed. This was an incredible touch and sparked various joyful memories and conversation. Would highly recommend Esters for a fun gathering with friends! read more

This place has gone down hill in the time I've been going there. We used to really like it from the neighborhood feel to the unique pizzas, even if they weren't what I was used to from New York. I think it can't handle the success. We went a while ago, and the brussels salad was not nearly up to the quality it had previously. They also can't seem to cook the pizza with a crispy crust. Most recently, we got take out. My pizza didn't have cheese on it even though I did indicate I wanted shredded mozzarella in the order. They were skimpy on the artichoke heart and broccoli pieces for the toppings as well. And again, even though I asked for it crispy, it wasn't even close. Overall, it seemed dry and bland. To top it off, my wife picked up the order, and it was sitting on the counter. She asked if that was our order, and the woman who was up front insisted it wasn't. This went on for 15 minutes, until that staff person relented and checked. She handed over the pizzas with no apology. I guess we'll have to find another pizza joint. read more

Awesome food and service. Great neighborhood eatery, clean restaurant and nice people.

This was absolutely amazing. Being a girl from the east coast, it's hard to find great pizza out here. But let me tell you!! Esters did a fantastic job with their pizza making. I got the mashed potato pizza and it was amazing, the pesto sauce on it complimented it more than you can imagine. One of my favorite parts was every pizza on the menu has a suggested wine pairing, and the wine that was suggested paired phenomenally. The server was amazing and the food was amazing and the scenery and music choice were amazing. I had an amazing experience. read more

Esters is just a few blocks from our house so when they added happy hour I had to post. We love Esters for how chill this resturant/bar is and for the food which is simple with flair and flavor. We also love the staff--our favorite bartenders: Ville, Ben, Allie and another bartender that I'm forgetting his name. We prefer sitting at the bar when it's just my partner and I and in there dining area when we have the kiddos. Esters Happy Hour consists of Buffalo Wings (so delicious, we also had them dry rubbed), Spinach Artichoke Dip (so yummy--I forgot to take a photo), Chips & Queso (we had it w/chorizo--not my favorite--flavor was good but the queso was a little runny), Roni Rolls --my partner loves these, they are not GF so I've never tried them and great drink prices--just to name a few items on the HH list. We added a 1/2 house salad to our meal and my partner had a Skinny Marg. If you are looking for a chill atmosphere to watch the game, delicious pizza, appetizers or sandwiches--without having greasy food, Esters is your spot! read more

Solo mission. Yelp chose this place for me and I was not disappointed. First. I was lucky enough to find a parking spot. The restaurant is situated in a small shopping mall next to an apartment complex so parking is limited. I walked in and noticed a wait (Wednesday evening around 6:45pm). I wanted to grab a beer so I didn't mind sitting at the bar. The bartender was busy so I had to ask for a menu. No big deal! So far the reviews about parking and the place being packed with regulars are correct! I ordered a Tangerine Cream beer and the Of The Earth 12" pizza. The beer was light yet creamy. I ordered two! I knew I wasn't going to eat the whole pizza, so I ordered to-go. My pizza came out and I could smell the goodness! The box was cool and interactive. My favorite pizza is mushroom so I was excited to find a place that was loaded. It was delicious! The cheese was melty and the walnuts give a nice crunch and a surprising sweet yet not over powering taste to the pizza. The crust is perfect and crispy. I love oven fired pizza. The ambiance was chill. Great for a family dinner. Perfect for a date night. Nice place to enjoy a solo meal at the bar with lots of options for watching sports. I can't wait to come back! read more

So disappointed. I really wanted to like this place. Received "table is ready text". I promptly texted on my way "#2" per their instructions. Showed up "4 minutes late" (had to change baby really quick) to be told my table was given away, they sent multiple texts and we didn't respond. I showed my text as proof that I only received the one. Was told they don't get any texts. The lack in professionalism and careless, rude attitude rubbed me the wrong way. Didn't offer to help fix the situation but "put us back on the wait list." They said they would seat us next, but sat other same size families before us. We eventually gave up due to our restless children. I also overheard the hostess telling another family we "messed up the waitlist" and they would be next. Very unprofessional. Not how I thought this evening would go. read more

Excellent pizza!!! I can't turn around anymore without tasting great pizza - the secrets of the perfect crust have been unleashed, and now it's all about what unique combo of great flavors to ride atop the perfect crust.

This is the absolute best pizza I've EVER had! It had so much flavor to it, and the crust was cooked perfectly!

Amazing food and service. The atmosphere is amazing as well, parking is a little difficult but once inside everything is perfect.

Came here with fellow Yelper Erin B last weekend for brunch and I'm so glad she brought me to this understated but incredible little spot. Esters may not look like much when you spot it in the little strip mall it calls home, but the ambiance inside is great. But what makes Esters a real standout is the food! The pretzel bites we ordered are apparently only available during football season, so if they're around when you are, GET THEM! I also loved the winter salad-- it was hearty and flavorful with great textures too. The pizza options all look so good, and the crust is amazing. I also ordered a kids size biscuit with mushroom gravy and loved that too! Next time, I'm looking forward to going for dinner and trying more varieties of pizzas. read more

Food was amazing, atmosphere was nice as well. Had a pizza and the Caesar salad. Sat outside on the patio and it was lovely.

Great place to come for solid food and watch the game. Meet some friends here to watch the game and had a fun time. Service was great and all the food was good! Solid pizza! The place got packed because it was a Final Four game. I have to say the sound kind of gets trapped in there and couldn't hear the TVs or my friends down the table, but all is good as it was the environment expected going to watch the game. read more
