    It's Friday, March 20 but 67° outside due to La Niña!! Spring Equinox!! We were hungry for pizza…read moreand came 35 minutes before closing because they close early at 7:00 PM!! It wasn't overly crowded but they had several pickup orders during our visit. We got a couple beers and a Greek salad and the 16" super pizza. Palisade peach beer was great. There was only one lady working the front of house by herself and she was efficient but a little frazzled. The salad was delicious! Crisp and tasty and the dressing was great! I was surprised, though, by how dirty the place was and to see the plastic Covid wall separators still in place between booths, but it stops pesky kids from staring at you over the neighboring backside. LOL! The shakers of salt and pepper and Parmesan cheese were greasy and covered in fingerprints. The napkin holder was gross. The floors could be cleaned better too. I guess off season means relaxed standards? Our pizza wasn't cooked enough in my opinion. The cheese was not fully melted and the bottom of the pie was soft and doughy and a little soggy. We asked for extra cheese and extra sausage but Kelsey only heard xtra sauce. It wasn't bad and the ingredients were good but it could have been better. The place appears to need a facelift and deep cleaning. Lots of wear and tear is obvious. This place needs some love.

    Excellent, just excellent. Perfect pizza joint type of vibe,…read morefriendly servers, decent prices. My kids didn't want pizza again, or i would have went back multiple times. Been in the Grand Lake area multiple days, and we asked local shop owners for their best choices.... No one said this place... so either the others get all the praise, or they have yet to visit here.

    Wanting to try out different places in Grand Lake, we walked to a virtually empty teeny bar &…read moregrill. The owner Phillip was drinking a Guinness at the bar when we arrived with his back to the door. No welcome. Just told us to sit anywhere. Turns out the whole family works there. Met the daughter Grace while perusing the menu. Not a lot of options but we tried the chicken wings with pints of Outlaw lager beer. Both were fairly tasty. Looking around at the tiny place made me think of a cozy little British pub. The tunes playing in the background were pleasant. The owner told us his story about buying the business and how his family worked there. Saturday afternoon had only three family members as the wife was out. As sweet as his daughter was, she was far too talkative to patrons and fairly ignored the two groups of people who came inside and sat down. Her dad was in the back washing dishes and we still waited 10 minutes to order our main dish. The other patrons even got up to look in back to see if anyone was working there because they were ignored. About ten minutes later the owner came around the corner but Daughter was still gossiping outside. He scurried around. We split the fish and chips between the two of us as well as the salad. I was not impressed with the food. The small pieces of battered fish were decent but the overcooked fries and the salad were NOT good. I was bummed. It's like they realize the fish portions are small and they overcompensate with too many fries. I really wanted to like the place. The salad dressing came in store bought packets. Bottom line; only come for the beer and you will be happy.

The Owner and his family made us feel welcomed and appreciated, we truly had a wonderful time talking with everyone in there! The perfect place to stop and enjoy your evening! Put the cherry on top of our trip! Be sure to decorate yourself a dollar while there and stick it somewhere! Cool vibe inside!

    This is a food truck located at the Lumpy Ridge Brewing Company, at least on Sundays. Google does…read morenot give the correct directions - when we followed them, we ended up in a random parking lot a block over. I recommend setting the GPS to the brewery rather than the truck. When we visited on Sunday after hiking at RMNP for the morning, there wasn't much of a crowd here. We ordered and the the food only took about 8 minutes to arrive. Meeker Margherita ($21) - Perfectly cooked crust in this pizza. The cornicione in particular is expertly risen and cooked, giving plenty of charred bubbles and the perfect chewiness. The undercarriage, while floppy, isn't soggy at all. It hold up very well to the ingredients on top. The crust is first slathered sparingly with tomato sauce. The sauce is reduced quite a bit and tastes almost like a concentrated tomato paste. They don't use a lot so it doesn't soak into the crust at all. On top, there's a couple of pieces of basil giving a very noticeably fresh aroma. There's plenty of melted mozzarella cheese, which seem to be of the pearl variety, mild tasting and stretchy. They apparently also drizzle some EVOO, although there's no particular peppery or fruity notes, or heck any real olive oil flavor at all. With how well all the other ingredients worked together, the olive oil is very disappointing. Still, it's a very well constructed pizza. (5/5) Panorama Peak ($23) - Again, this pizza has the perfect crust. Instead of tomato sauce, it's slathered with ricotta cheese, making the pizza very rich and creamy. More melted mozzarella on top of that for even more fatty richness, then pieces of proscuitto, chewy and salty. The meat isn't sliced that well so it's messy to eat. They then essentially cover the pizza with an arugula, tomato, and shaved parmesan salad. The arugula is super peppery and bitter, the tomatoes are fresh and sweet, and the parmesan adds more saltiness. The main sources of salt are the parmesan and the proscuitto. Neither are added in large enough quantities to make the pie overly salty. Mixed in the with the arugula are a couple of stems of cilantro for some reason. Nothing on the menu actually uses cilantro so I'm a bit confused where it comes from. It's essentially a salad on pizza dough so everything falls off the crust very easily making it messy to eat. (4/5) I'm very impressed with the food served at Mangia Mangia. I didn't expect to find such great pizza in a small touristy mountain town. I'll be back next time I'm in the area!
