I hail from the east coast. We relo'd to Colorado 2 years ago. I have been on the hunt for genuine east coast pizza, not thick crust, not greasy, just the New York style, thin crust so it flops when you pick it up and you have to fold it, well-seasoned tomato sauce and cheese. I had given up - hey I know I moved to a state that's not east coast and I just figured pizza was one of those things I'll have to miss. Not anymore - I found the genuine New York slices as this location today. We had great service and were served quickly, and the garlic knots were also legit. We will def be back and we were going to return and order an entire pie to go so I could stash it in our freezer - but we ended up having a family emergency and having to leave Manitou. But we will definitely, definitely be back! read more

This is a great stop for a quick slice if you're feeling the need for sustenance in the Manitou downtown area. You're not going to find a more filling option in the area for less than $10. I tried the spicy combo option - pizza with jalapenos + the hot knots. For a comical $6.66 it filled me up enough to fuel taking my son and niece to the penny arcade. Not a penny these days, by the way... This is a hole in the wall style restaurant, so seating is fairly limited. Not great for a group of 20, but fantastic for everything else. There was only one fella working the oven, front, and every other hat, but he knocked out order after order with efficiency. Worth a visit! My new go-to for quick eats in Manitou Springs. read more

If you are from Ny/Nj this is it locally. Da bomb! The simple good pizza you remember from back home.

A Taste of home in Manitou Springs! Born and raised NYC, visiting Manitou Springs and of course had to try Hell's Kitchen pizza! They definitely hit the mark making authentic NYC pizza! Not much seating but with pizza this good- who cares. The decor is NYC photos and memorabilia mixed with a "hell" theme. read more

You know for take out pizza in the mountains this place is legit. We'd had a long day of travel and finally settled into our Airbnb for a few days of rest when we were ready to find some food. If you've ever travelled with little kids you know that by the end of the day everyone is tired and the idea of leaving your bnb is just not on the table, so we found Ruffrano's via DoorDash and a quick search taught me that it appears to be a local chain. Since it would deliver and promised a NY style 'za we were sold. We ordered one of their specialty pizzas for the grown ups and some plain chicken wings for the kids. It arrived on time and was delicious. I love pizza in general and this one was just as good as any. If you're in the area and looking for a crowd pleasing pizza this place should satisfy. read more

had an awesome experience at Hell's Kitchen Pizza. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was energetic and welcoming. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between casual and lively -- great spot to hang out with friends or grab a quick bite. The pizza was outstanding. Fresh ingredients, perfectly baked crust, and bold flavors in every bite. You can tell they don't cut corners on quality. The portions were generous, and everything came out hot and fast. The service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without hovering. Overall, great food, great atmosphere, and great service. I'll definitely be back. read more

GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE, ask what time we would be there and said our pizza would be ready at that exact time for pick up. GREAT GIANT PIZZA, ordered my pizza extra crispy and I got it just the way I wanted it! The salad was perfect and the wings were BIG & CRUNCHY with a great taste of DELICIOUSNESS! read more

This pizza FILLS you up!! Great environment on the inside and pretty fast ordering experience. Pizza is pretty good, but liking thin pizza is a requirement here. Got the regular (cheese) slice which was the best because it had sauce. The 4 white cheese and the mac and cheese slices were kinda like glorified cheese bread due to lack of sauce. Would definitely recommend for a quick stop in town. P.S. If you're a ranch lover like me the 75¢ charge per little container is worth it read more

We went in to this place after hiking the incline, ready to eat, and when the incredibly old and rude cashier harassed us when we didn't tip on our to go order. When we explained we were trying to save money and not receiving service, he angrily kicked us out. It is never appropriate for a business to harass and abuse their customers to tip. Tipping is optional, and if they need them desperately enough to be the worst part of society, then they should not be in business. read more

The pizza was solid overall. The sauce was just okay--not bad, but nothing particularly memorable. What really stood out, though, was the crust. It was outstanding--perfectly cooked with great texture and flavor, and easily the highlight of the pizza. read more

We were visiting Manitou Springs and wanted some grub after checking in to our room. I went to pick it up and it's a small place with very limited seating. The service was great, the guys there were all pretty cool. Now, as far as the food, we ordered a large pizza, garlic knots and some drinks. It was ALL delicious!! The pizza is NY style which typically is not my favorite but man oh man.....it was crazy tasty! The garlic knots were super garlicky and fresh! We ended up ordering again a couple days later. So definitely will be back!! read more

I loved in Brooklyn, NY for 12 years and this place is legit. They have an amazing special: a slice, 3 knots, and a fountain drink for $6.66 plus tax. I had the cinnamon knots and my wife had the garlic knots, and these were the best knots! My pepperoni slice was exactly what I seek out in a New York style slice: thin, foldable, and greasy with good pepperoni. The bearded gentleman working the counter was the king of customer service. If you are in Manitou Springs you need to swing by here. *chef's kiss* read more

Ruffrano's Hell's Kitchen Pizza - To go Alice! - Pizza Near Me - Manitou Springs, Colorado

Our pizza was burnt. They had to know it because you could smell it. They even opened the door to air out the place. Half was sort of alright but the other side we just rate the toppings. read more

Great pizza. It's New York style and it's reasonably priced. The service was fast and friendly.

If you want a slice of heaven with just a little bit of mischief, Hell's Kitchen Pizza is the spot. We went for the four cheese pizza, and let me tell you -- it wasn't shy about the cheese. Big, glorious clumps of ricotta sat on top like cheesy mountain peaks daring you to climb them (without the risk of a heart attack like the Manitou Incline). The crust was crisp, the cheese was melty, and each bite was a gooey reminder that sometimes in life, more is more. If you're the kind of person who says, "That's too much cheese," this probably isn't the place for you. If you're a normal, sane human being who understands that ricotta should be served by the scoop -- welcome home. Hell's Kitchen Pizza doesn't overcomplicate things. It's just good pizza, big flavor, and the kind of pie that makes you wonder why you ever wasted time on frozen DiGiorno's read more

I've been coming here for so many years and as of today I will never be back. I understand the coffin races are the busiest day of the year for these small business in this town which is good for them but the guy at the register who's always been there for years was so incredibly rude I absolutely will not ever give another penny to this place. The pizza is decent but absolutely not worth the awful service. Also I'd love a health inspector to come to this place because I know 100% it's not up to code. They had pizzas on trays on top of FULL trash cans. "Prioritize by tip" okay cool. As a single mom of three I can't give a $20 tip for mediocre pizza. Go to literally any other restaurant in this town. read more

We didn't leave a tip on our $40 large pizza order. The staff verbally assaulted my wife and called us all sorts of names and threatened to call the police if we didn't leave. I've never had this poor of an experience in my life. I really can't believe we had this experience here. I've never been treated this poorly as a customer in my entire life. read more

Was starving and randomly saw this place as we drove down the hill. Wexeach had 2 slices and a drink for about $25 total. The macaroni and cheese slice wasn't great, but the others were all solid NY Style slices. Also, if your working the counter, at least tell me if a new pizza is coming out. read more

huge slices, good prices. service was quick and the pizza was cooked fresh. it was a bit greasy but really good

Great food and service, the workers were nice and the food came out quick. 10 out 10 pizza, would eat again.

The pizza here is absolutely to die for. I only ordered a slice and immediately went back for another. Really good stuff. The staff were awesome and super helpful. Super cool people who are wizards at the pizza making game. Great tunes and such a great spot to eat at! Thank you guys for a wonderful experience. We WILL be coming back. read more

Great hole in the wall pizza joint with no frills but, great New York style slices. Definitely worth stopping in and visiting if you're in Manitou Springs. read more

So..we had just finished a tour of garden of the gods and we definitely wanted a little something to nosh...we came across this spot and I had let's grab a slice. It's a little hole in the wall but...I was completely surprised by the taste...tasted like NY...crispy slice and absolutely delicious. I'm a jersey girl born and raised and I give this 5stars for food alone. We had a white slice and garlic knots which are spicy, regular, and cinnamon...I had a hellsfire...spicy oh so good. read more

The pizza is fine. Not great or bad. It's a cool spot. Was not a fan of the automatic 18% gratuity on parties of four. Could have just ordered a whole pizza and come out for less than our four specials after that. read more

Holy crap. Was just looking for some delivery pizza because we were lazy and just chilling in our Airbnb. Pizza was cold when delivered by uber eats, but was still freaking awesome. I can only imagine it hot. Dave Portnoy would probably love it too. Well done. Will be back on our next incline trip. Wow. read more

We wanted a quick meal for being late at night so we got two slices of pepperoni pizza. It was end of the day so there weren't many choices left. I was charged $8+tax for two slices. You can get 2 slices plus a drink for $9.99. I made a comment to my fried that we should have gotten the drinks. The you man over heard and just gave us two fountain cups. We ended up just getting two cups of ice because our place didn't have ice. It was super thin and tasty but greasy. We used napkins to pat out the oil and inhaled the whole thing. read more

After hiking the treacherous Manitou Incline, I stopped here to fill my stomach and was greatly pleased. The pizza here was extremely cheap and delicious; it was on the thinner side which I usually don't like but I think this is the first thin pizza I truly enjoyed. In my opinion this is the best pizza in the state of Colorado. The service here was immaculate, the staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the town and some of the history behind the hike I did. The ambiance here wasn't anything crazy, but it was very nice and had decorations relating to to town of Manitou Springs. read more

Fast, friendly and delicious! My new favorite spot in Manitou Springs. We were able to sit outside with our dog which was a plus, but only one table. Don't forget the cinnamon knots! read more

This is one of the best gluten free pizza I have had! It is a crispy crust and good flavor

They have gluten free pizza! The crust was like a homemade New York style, and it was so so good...one of the best I've had!

Sunday afternoon. Beautiful day. The guy working the register was kind of rude. Which I can overlook if the slices are good. Unfortunately, the Pizza is some of the worst I've ever had. Sauce was for color only, no flavor. And the cheese tasted like a cheese substitute. To top off, place is dirty. Wish we went somewhere else in the town. So many other options. Don't do this. read more

Love their pizza and atmosphere. Will go out of their way to make sure you get just what you want.

Got 2 slices of hellfire. It was perfect. Crunchy, could do that middle fold thing, spicy goodness. Felt bad for the guy running the place, it seemed to be a one man show -- he was bouncing between taking orders, putting orders together, and making pizza. Pizza was great tho, I'd come back. read more

What crap hole - nothing special - no ambience and the vibe if there is one was certainly negative and just a downer place - I would not recommend going there and will not ever waste my time there again ... food was old and cheap - service well - I wish I hadn't left a tip read more

Stopped here for a quick lunch before our cave tour. We were a little skeptical due to the reviews and the place was empty at 11:30am. They had great lunch specials, which for a tourist town, I wasn't expecting. I got the 1 slice of pepperoni pizza and 3 garlic knots, with a drink. For $6.66. My boyfriend got 2 slices of pizza and a drink for $9.99. The slices were HUGE! Crust crispy. Super hot pizza. Just enough sauce and cheese. Pepperoni was good. Boyfriend had the Hawaiian pizza, with bacon instead of Canadian bacon. Very good. He also got the hellfire pizza, super hot/spicy! The only thing is you can't special order your pizza slices for the specials. You just pick from the 6 pies they have in the counter. Oh and by the time we were almost done eating, the place was packed, and the line to the door! (It's a pretty small place). Would return, recommend! read more
