After a LONG day at Mesa Verde National Park, this spot was exactly what we needed! Phenomenal pizza and salads; I got a small Caesar and it was absolutely above average, and my wood fired pizza was cooked perfectly. Thin and crunchy under crust with a soft, breadstick-like outer crust. Ingredients tasted fresh, and drink selection was excellent. Would recommend the Moscow Mule, Roasted Garlic Sausage Pesto Pizza, and the Caesar salad. While on the pricier side, the food and service were worth it. read more

Good pizza and salad. Extremely sour Strawberry lemonade -- not a problem for me but might be for others. Good service.

I found this place by doing research, Yelp and YouTube, prior to our visit to Durango. Everything we hoped for. Cool atmosphere, everything you would expect from a wood fired stove pizzeria, friendly servers, and delicious pizza and cocktails. We ordered a pepperoni pizza and the superior pizza, and house salads. Pizza have the perfect crust, the right shoe and just the right amount of dark brown crust. And the toppings were fantastic. The pepperoni was not any regular pepperoni. One pizza feeds two people easily. Highly recommend this place. The staff is also very good with children, we had a one year old and a three year old and they treated us all great. read more

Delicious pizza! Perfect texture, great flavor. Not pictured, we got the collegiate also. I LOVED the fennel sausage, which surprised me. I figured the fennel would be a little off putting but it was my favorite thing! Had some nice cold beers to wash down the pizza and the grande salad to start. Didn't love the dressing, but the pizza was the star of the show. Bartender took great care of us. Atmosphere was nice and laid back. Smells coming from the oven were incredible. Definitely a place worth checking out! read more

Disappointing. Pizzas were burned black in places. Skimpy topping for pepperoni. Only two "choices" for take out. Pressured tipping w/o human contact; I did all of the ordering, including paying, online for take out, which was ten minutes later than texted. No service given. Burnt, late, skimpy, disappointing. I expected more. We live here but won't be back. read more

Awesome food. I highly recommend the mozzarella dip. The cheese was burnt around the edges and easily a great appetizer for our 7 people at the table. The pizza was thin crust and 3-12 inch pizzas were plenty for our table. Staff was very attentive and helpful. Sorry pic. read more

Absolutely in love with this place! We were recommended it and we were NOT disappointed!! They have indoor and outdoor seating and the weather was perfect for outdoor! Eli our waiter was super friendly and helpful! And the food was spot on! We would definitely come back!!! read more

We were happy to find a wood-fired pizza spot right off Main. Calling in our order for takeout was easy. Tried some basics including a margherita and pepperoni. Pizzas were pretty good and we were happy with the salad selection. Only complaint is that the pizza crust was a little burnt on the ends and a bit flatter than I'm used to. I can imagine it's hard to make wood fired pizza at this elevation, so I'm glad that Fired Up offers it! read more

The food was alright. The pizza is small (they only offer a 12") which really isn't enough for 2 adults. There should be other pizza sizes available but I see how they're making their money, most people seemed to order their own pizza. A 12" is too much for 1 person, yet it's not really enough for 2 people. So we ordered an appetizer, the Caprese salad which was good. My significant other and I ordered the Meat Works pizza. There was very little sauce on the pizza which was disappointing. As for the inside, there's vents everywhere you sit, so I got blasted with the air conditioning. I wanted to sit outside, but it was a 30-40 minute wait. This place is rather pricey for what you get. I don't know if I'd go back. read more

Good pizza! I had the "Smokey" which was good, but would have liked it better a tad longer in the oven. The fennel sausage was the best part for me. read more

3.5 stars... Cool little storefront on the main drag that was filled at lunchtime, so we ducked in! Opted to split the salad and a pizza... started out with the salad, heaped with feta, olives, walnuts, and veggies...dressing was served on the side and complimented the greens well. Waiter blundered and forgot to put in the order, so there was a delay... Chose the roasted garlic sausage pizza...crispy crust, sweet smoky garlic complimented the fennel sausage and cheesy goodness. Ambiance is shotgun storefront, prices are in line with expectation for a tourist town, and staff was friendly but spotty... If I'm back in Durango I'd come back, so this joint makes the list! read more

With so many pizza selections it's hard to choose the right one. But if you're in Durango, Colorado, the right one is fired up pizzeria. All their pizzas cooked in a fire oven that come out crisp on the outside and soft in the inside. I had the southwest pizza, and it was absolutely amazing. Their service is excellent and the ambience is upscale for a pizza joint. read more

We were visiting Durango and ate dinner at Fired Up Pizza. We loved it. The food was wonderful, the service was great, and the atmosphere was awesome. We'll definitely recommend this place to others traveling through. read more

We ordered online and when we arrived to pick up our food they refused to let us sit and eat despite an entirely empty restaurant. I've never heard of a restaurant having this policy in my entire life. Seems like it was more the preference of the staff that was working at the moment. We were able to contact Jessica the general manager who apologized and agreed that we should not have been turned away. The food was good, but be careful if you order online. read more

Horrible place. Ordered online, went to eat and they refused to let us eat in the restaurant after paying their high prices and even tipped because we ordered online WTF. Worst business ever. Now walking around durango with 3 toddlers and 100 dollars worth of pizza and no place to sit down. There are even empty tables outside that we can't use. Nice man at Magpies newsstand said we can eat at his tables down the street. Take your business there instead of the wack jobs at fired up pizza. read more

I'm a pizza snob (New Yorker), and this pizza was super delicious. I was in Durango for 3 days with my son and daughter. We went here on our first night on my son's insistence since he was here a few months prior. Paige served us and she made us feel like regulars and well cared for. On our last night in town, my son wanted to go back... and we did. Again, the service (Molly) was top notch... answering all of our questions and making us feel like friends. On both nights, I had a La Cumbre Elevated IPA... I'm also a beer snob from the Bay Area... and this IPA was super solid. I'd rank it better than many of our local IPAs. My only complaint was the Cannolis we ordered on our first night. Originally a New Yorker, this is a staple desert at Italian eateries. The filling should be ricotta cheese-based giving it a heavy texture. The Cannolis here had a smooth, lighter filling that was not at all unpleasant, but it just wasn't what you'd expect from a Cannoli. read more

Came here for lunch on a Wednesday and it was packed. We were seated right away though, and food came out surprisingly quickly. My husband and I shared the Southwest pizza, with fennel sausage, green chile, red peppers, and red onion on a thin crust. We both really enjoyed the pizza. We also shared the wild arugula prosciutto salad, but got the house balsamic instead of the lemon vinaigrette, and we were glad we did. The balsamic with the figs in the salad was a great combo. I also got the on tap kolsch to drink, and it went great with the pizza. Splitting the pizza and salad with one drink set us back about $50 before tip. read more

After reading all the positive reviews I thought we had found the cure for our pizza cravings while visiting Durango. We had passed by "Fired Up Pizzeria" on our walk to and from the Silverton Train Station and decided a nice pizza dinner with a glass or two of wine would be great way to end our day after the trip to Silverton and back. We arrived about 7:30 and we're told the wait would be about 30 minutes, so we gave our name and cell number, then asked if we could sit at the bar and wait. We were then told the bar was only for having dinner and we couldn't sit there unless we wanted to have dinner at the bar; at that point we decide to stand outside and wait for a table. Once seated the friendly server came by, took our drink order and quickly retuned with the drinks, at which point we placed our order for a Caesar Salad and Pepperoni/Mushroom/Black Olive Pizza. Our server said the pizza oven was backed up and it would take about 25-30 minutes for the pizza; so we asked for the salad to be served first and wait for the pizza. When the salad arrived the romaine lettuce had several black spots and was extremely wilted, but being hungry and having waited we decided to bear thought it. The croutons were stale and dressing was definitely straight from a bottle off the grocery store shelf. The only redeeming factor was the shaved parmesan cheese. The pizza arrived as promised 30 minutes later. Coming from "Wood Fired Pizza Oven", I expected the typical crispy bottom crust and nice charred crust top around the edges; the edges were fine but the bottom was soggy and limp. Large circles of bland pepperoni were those used in deli sandwiches rather the standard pizza pepperoni served. The black olives were fine (how can you mess up black olives?), and the mushrooms were "OK". VERY limited about of cheese on the pizza and the toppings were sparse. Overall, a big disappointment. Not expecting a wine list from a gourmet restaurant, the list was bearable, but mainly "bottom shelf". I'm sure there are much better options in Durango for pizza if that's your craving. We certain won't be returning. Appears they live off of tourist and not repeat business. read more

Busy but a short wait. Excellent vibe to this place. Easy going and pet friendly. Paige took excellent care of me, my wife and two grandkids (6 and10). My wife and I started off with the Stuffed Mushrooms. We asked the grandkids to try them and they loved them - leaving almost none for us! The kids had their own cheese pizza which they both finished. They have great cocktails - Negroni for me and a Moscow Mule for her (great Ginger Beer). We split the Greek pizza and added Fennel Sausage. read more

Def worth stopping here. Ordered a thin 3 topper. Was excellent House salad also very good read more

I took my family to FUP for dinner last night around 8pm. We were quickly seated and I was looking at various pizzas being served adjacent to our table. They looked delicious. We ordered a margherita pizza and spinach salad and a Caesar. The spinach salad was good but overpriced for the size. The Caesar was limp with soft croutons. The margerhita was dry and skimpy with all ingredients. There was plenty of real estate on the pizza with very little sauce or cheese, and the basil was not whole Leaf, but crumbles. I commented my dissatisfaction to the server, who brought a replacement. Which to me was about the same. I will order a different item if I visit again. The server and staff were fine. read more

Fired Up Pizzeria - Margherita Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Durango, Colorado

Bottom Line: Great pizza and Italian inspired dishes and attentive service. My husband and I went to Fired Up Pizzeria after a long day of hiking and sightseeing and everything on the menu looked so tempting. In the end we got the stuffed mushroom appetizer, house salad and Margherita pizza. I think the house salad was one of the best house salads I've ever had. I really enjoyed the shaved Parmesan, fresh veggies and pepperoncini. The pizza was tasty too and I appreciated the thin crust. Fired Up has one of the fancy made-in-Italy (I think) wood burning pizza ovens that cooks pizzas at super high temperatures. Fired Up has a full bar. And speaking of bar, they have bar seating, an indoor dining room, some sidewalk dining and a patio as well. I think they might even have a patio out back or a deck up top. I saw a few people come and go to order take out so it seems that is an option too. Whittney was our server and she was awesome! She was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and efficient. I definitely appreciate a server who "makes every trip count" and hustles. Parking is limited to street parking which at times seems to be a little challenging in Historic Durango. On a Monday might we were able to get a meter spot about a block away so that was convenient. Parking is free after 6pm. read more

Wonderful pizza. Love the wood fired crust. Excellent salad and cocktails. Definitely recommend and cannot wait to return.

A cool place in the "main street." The pizza was good although a little pricey. It was worth it for the experience. The beer and drink selection was great and the craft beers I had were excellent. read more

Fired up Pizzeria 1. Cheese: 6 2. Sauce: 2 3. Crust: 5 4. Preparation: 9 5. Overall flavor: 5 Side notes: - Looks better than it is - Cheese is a little bland - Sauce: Average taste, barely existent - Crust: Average taste, extremely thin to the point where it's barely there some slices TOTAL: 5.4 Overall very average pizza, maybe a little below. However please take into account I take pizza more seriously than the average person. Would I eat again? Maybe. If I'm I'm starving and/or want to give it a second chance. If I ever go back I'll probably try ordering a pizza with mozzarella rather than the standard 4-cheese. UPDATE: My dad reheated his pizza the following day and the crust was extremely rubbery. He ended up actually breaking his tooth eating it. read more

Durango has a strong pizza game, with several good spots depending on the kind of pizza you are looking for. Fired Up, conveniently located toward the South end of Main Avenue, serves thin-crust Neapolitan-style pizza baked in their wood-fueled oven. My favorites are the plain old margherita, the Vesuvius (spicy sausage) and particularly the prosciutto Bianca - prosciutto with fresh arugula and tomatoes, among other things. They have good Colorado beer on tap, some creative cocktails, as well as a few sandwiches and salads if you aren't in the mood for a pie. Some have complained about the cost, but I think the prices are fair for what you get- a thin crust pizza that's way above the average. The atmosphere is sort of trendy and modern, and I've never had reason for complaints about the service. Recommendable for everyone, including families. Happy travels! Seatbelts! read more

What a wonderful location with wonderful pizza, a lively atmosphere, and helpful personnel. There are lots of things to do in Durango, but whether you're just passing through or want to stay for a few days, you should definitely stop by. You can unwind with a beer and a slice either inside or outside while watching the game. The location is handy to all the places in town you would need to go, and the staff is helpful and kind. read more

Their fennel sausage pizza with the Bianca base was the perfect antidote to my late afternoon hunger. The crust was light and crisp and their chili sauce was perfect for dunking crust. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Fired Up Pizzeria - Bianca base with fennel sausage - Pizza Near Me - Durango, Colorado

Honestly, our family of 13 wasn't thrilled with pizzas. They were kind of small and the crust didn't seem thoroughly baked like other wood burning places we've enjoyed. Was hoping for some unique flavor combinations but it was really same old same old pizza options. Not to be too critical, but we had leftovers and none of the kids, hungry teens included, finished. read more

Wait staff was rude. Insisted on 20% gratuity for party of 7. Wouldn't allow us to buy drinks at the bar Only through server. Go somewhere Else when in Durango. read more

So good! Four different pizzas, and they were all wonderful. Brenna was a terrific server. She took orders for drinks and food and delivered all of it in good time. We didn't want for anything with her nearby. She also answered all our questions about the menu. The Smokin' Salmon "pizza" appetizer was light and tasty. We will definitely try this at home. The fennel sausage pizza was a little sweeter than the regular sausage (with green chili!) pizza. My Bianca pizza was delicious with fresh spinach. Nieces shared a Margherita pizza with chicken. We all had the shredded mozzarella cheese. We sat by the window where pizzas came out, & the aroma was wonderful. The place was busy, but we didn't feel rushed or wanting for anything. Brenna did offer us the opportunity to order dessert, but we were comfortably full. And only one piece of pizza was left behind - but we wanted to finish it! read more

We ordered the arugula salad. It was fresh and tasty, but could have used some more dressing. We also got a pepperoni and mushroom pizza. It was really delicious. The restaurant was full at 6:15 on a Sunday but surprisingly not loud or manic. Our server was okay--slow to acknowledge our presence but totally fine after that. read more

This place was amazing! The staff was very friendly and quick to get your drink and order. They were very helpful in suggesting different items to eat. The pizza was delicious and above expectations.

This is our second visit to Fired up pizzeria, we were told our wait was going to be from 20 to 35 min wait but we were seated in less than 15 min, food was great my kids love their pizza and the lit dessert.

Okay. This place is hoppin and poppin. Great atmosphere inside and outside. Pretty day? Go eat outside. Cold outside, go enjoy the inside. Waitresses were so kind, thoughtful and quick! It was pretty crowded and they handled it like champs. I ordered the Bianca and added pepperoni and mozerella. Husband had the meat lovers and devoured the whole thing. Our brother-in-law ordered the pesto and mushroom and he ate the entire thing. We will 100% be back and come to this spot every time we are in town. So many things on the menu and freaking Bomb read more

Craving some fancy pizza? Look no further! I ordered the Biano Prosciutto Pizza and loved it! It was packed with flavor and I kept wanting more after each slice. Others at my table ordered Salmon salads, and they said it was good but that the salmon was a bit weird. Lesson learned here, order the pizza! My main complaint is that it's pretty pricey. My Pizza was almost $18 and while it was really good, it's just not something I can come and get all the time. I'd recommend coming for a special occasion or splitting one of the larger pizzas to make it more doable. read more
