Our food had great flavors and the salad was fresh and crunchy. Bar with canned beers and good selection! It's nice to slow ourselves down and eat somewhere good and local. Local food is always worth the wait! Good music too! read more

White Buffalo Pizza - Personal pizza with ricotta and spinach - Bars Near Me - Grand Lake, Colorado

See all

When you pay $47 for a pizza, you expect it to be at least somewhat decent. I should have read the other reviews first because my experience was almost identical to theirs. I was told 15 to 20 minutes and arrived right at the 20 minute mark, but it was obvious the pizza had been sitting there much longer. It was served up ice cold. Even the dollops of ricotta tasted like they were added after the pizza was made, straight from the refrigerator. I am not exaggerating when I say ice cold, despite parts of the pizza being burnt. The edges of the crust were burnt, not in a good wood fired way with flavor, but just hard, overcooked, and inedible. While the toppings were generous, the pizza itself was extremely dry, just like others have mentioned. As I waited, I could see into the kitchen and noticed they were using pre made crusts, basically the kind you would grab at a grocery store when you do not feel like making your own. Charging $47 for that? No thanks. I hate wasting food, but we could not even finish this pizza. It was that bad. That is on me for not checking reviews beforehand. We should have just stuck with our usual spot, Grand Pizza, which happened to be closed for mud season. The difference in quality is night and day. I just want to warn others before they make the same mistake and waste their money like I did. Definitely will not be back. read more

Very few places to get a good bourbon pour in Grand Lake, but this has the best offering that i saw. Came in to watch a game, enjoyed the saddle seats at the bar, the bartender was friendly and quick to help. I enjoyed some toasted ravioli, which was unique to me, so right up my alley. The town caters to tourist, no exception here, but a decent place to enjoy a meal. read more

One of the few places open when we went out looking for dinner and we were so glad it was! So so yummy! Their homemade crust is heavenly. Salad portions are large and service was fast and friendly! Cute cabin interior was the perfect setting for this delicious pizza spot in the winter. Looking forward to our leftover pizza! read more

Very flavorful pizza, great beer and excellent service! We got the Greek Goddess and a gluten free pepperoni. Kids loved their gluten-free and we thought the Greek Goddess was full of flavor. I'm usually a meat lover but would get the Greek Goddess again! Colorado Native Amber was a perfect touch. read more

The saloon vibes were pretty cool. Food was okay. Nothing crazy about it. I will say, the pizza is massive, so you'll have leftovers to go home! The server was good, didn't have any issues with him at all. We got the fried ravioli, which was alright. We also ordered a large pepperoni pizza. I think the pizza could use more sauce, but that's just a preference for me. read more

Visiting from Southern California and after walking around town we decided to get a pizza to take back to camp. We didn't want a "normal" pizza so we ordered off the speciality list and got "The White Buffalo". It was so flavorful! Loved the decor of the bar and our server was super nice. read more

White Buffalo Pizza - Sausage, green peppers, and red onion - Bars Near Me - Grand Lake, Colorado

One of the two pizzas was dry, over cooked and the crust was burned. The other one was cooked okay and not dried out. The price was high and was very disappointed. Strange cut on the pizza would not eat there again read more

Would give 0 stars if I could. When we first sat down, we were the only ones in the restaurant. It took 10 minutes for them to take our drink order. No sweat, maybe they're getting organized. Get our drinks 10 minutes later, little delayed but we had a mixed shot so ok fair play. As soon as drinks are dropped off, we order two pizzas. One large specialty, one personal cheese. An hour goes by and we don't even see another server by our table. We would love to at least get more drinks, but no servers in sight. 10 minutes later we have had enough, I go to the bar to tab out and ask for the pizza to go, this is when the server notifies me our two pizzas haven't even been started. Great. 86 them off the bill and let me pay for our drinks. 1.5 hours of my life I won't get back and a not great start to the July 4th weekend. Go to The World's End Brewpub instead. Would have given 0 stars but Haus the bar dog was a treasure. Avoid at all costs otherwise. read more

Man, I'll tell you what, the guy who runs the show here was as nice as can be. My family and I made the mistake of coming here about an hour before they open for the day and he invited us in and decided to "make it work" to feed us! The pizzas we had were incredible and I'm mad at myself for not taking photos first but I got swept up in the moment! The crust was by far my favorite part. The sauce was so fresh, too. We heard this was Grand Lake's best pizza place and it didn't disappoint! read more

This is a small, unassuming place with absolutely amazing pizza! We ordered the Whole Buffalo pizza with ground bison, elk sausage, pepperoni and Italian sausage. Every part of the pizza was fresh, made from scratch, and so delicious. My husband is from Chicago and is a pizza snob, and he couldn't say enough about how good it was. Patrick, we think was the owner?, was super friendly as well. We'll be back next time we're in the area. read more

The place was fun, atmosphere was lively. The staff were so nice. However, the food is absolutely awful. Got the parm bites, Mac and cheese bites and they were so mushy and gross. No flavor, not crispy. Yuck. The staff were so sweet it made up for it but man the food sucks. read more

DON'T BUY A PIZZA, THE WORST, IHAVE HAD BETTER FROZEN PIZZA! The pizza I received was terrible. It was nothing like the description on the website. it was dry and over cooked. the price was $5 ($45 for a large pizza) higher than listed on the website. I called the owner and she made excuses regarding the price. I let her know I was extremely disappointed and she made no offer to make it write. read more

I'm particular about pizza... I don't love red sauce, and the crust has to be just right. These guys NAILED it. The pizza was the best I've ever had. We got the large Greek Goddess and added Pepperoni and Sausage. The 4 of us made ourselves sick and ate every bit. We couldn't imagine leaving anything on the tray. Patrick, our server was a great host. He even got my BIL's football game on the TV. If you're in Grand Lake and want amazing pizza with great crust, fresh toppings and friendly service, don't miss this place!!! read more

Pizza was great. Didn't skip on the toppings. Circle pizzas square cut. Our group of 8 guys hungry after skipping golf and a round of golf had 4 pizzas and a couple appetizers. The place was a bit understaffed/inexperienced. They were friendly but slow. Place was a bit busy but thought could have been managed a bit better. Carried to go boxes we asked for around 5 minutes before dropping off at our table... Getting drinks initially or refilled was also a challenge even to get pitchers of water, asking for multiple as we knew were thirsty. Appetizers didn't even make it to table before pizza. Mac n cheese bites & mozzarella sticks barely warm. The 4-16" pizzas were spectacular though and more than plenty of food! They don't skiimp on toppings. Plenty of cheese! Light sauce just the way I like it. Whole buffalo one of the meatiest pizzas I've ever had, with a variety of meat toppings! Homestead pizzas was a BBQ bacon pizza with some veggies had fantastic flavor subtle BBQ sweet flavor. Pepperoni we did double pepperoni and was tasty. Sausage we didn't do double and was only one anyone in our group noted could have a little more sausage. Pizza 8.5/10 Service 6/10 read more

We have to eat gluten free crust because my husband has celiac. They had some of the best gluten free pizza we've ever had! The toppings were plentiful (especially the cheese)! They even have gluten free beer (Holidaily). The service was prompt and friendly and the music was fun (all genres over the decades). Highly recommend!! read more

Very good pizza, Kristen was fabulous and ambiance super fun! Drinks made perfectly and good beer selection. Thank you!!

This was a disappointing place - we walked in around 8pm and ordered three pizzas and some beers. They started closing down the restaurant while we were still there and hadn't received our food. Chairs up on tables, sweeping and turned off the music. They then brought our our pizzas in to-go boxes and were definitely trying to rush us out. The last and worst part was the bill - $191 for 6 women and 6 drinks to eat pizza!! Not worth the price AT ALL read more

Lisa B fraudulently tipped herself $40 with my credit card. We placed a $400 order to feed 30 people a week in advance for a wedding rehearsal dinner. Lisa B took the order and taped it next to the register. I arrived to pick up the pizza, and Lisa had completely forgot about the order. She quickly blamed her boss Patrick but then found the order still taped next to the register. She had to close the kitchen for an hour to make the pizzas. I came back an hour later, picked up and paid for the food. I did not tip them because Lisa forgot our order, and 30 people angrily waited an hour at a party for dinner. As we were eating at the rehearsal dinner, Lisa called the bride and said I did not tip her and asked for money. We told her she gave poor service and hung up. Lisa then added $40 to the bill anyway and processed the charge. The pizza itself was good, but half of them were not hot by the time we received them. Obviously I disputed the charge, but be aware of fraudster Lisa B at this bar. read more

Grand Lake in general is a pricey place, and White Buffalo is no different. That being said I don't mind their pizza. I definitely had better and definitely worse. If the lines for the other restaurants in town are super long, it might be worth a try. One thing they do right is the amount of toppings on the pie. They load it up. read more

White Buffalo Pizza - Load up on those toppings - Bars Near Me - Grand Lake, Colorado

Last night I ordered a large pizza with sausage on only half of it (my fiancé is vegetarian). The pizza and salad and the tip I gave came out to over $60.. I would never normally spend that much on two people but that's totally acceptable for a vacation town. I have no problem with the price. However, when we got back to our rental cabin, we discovered sausage was covering the entire pizza and so my fiancé couldn't eat dinner. No big deal. Very disappointing, but I thought, I'll go up there tomorrow and ask them to make it right and we'll call it good. Today we went back downtown at lunchtime and I asked if she could get a free small cheese pizza. They said there was no manager on site so the best they could do was 50% off. Totally unacceptable. I don't blame the employees I interacted with or whoever put sausage on the whole pizza. Mistakes happen, it's ok. But my advice for the owner- have a manager present or give employees the power to fix people's orders when they're meal is ruined. Otherwise you end up with a Yelp review like this. read more

Do not waste your time or $$$$$. Way overpriced pizza that tastes worse than a frozen pizza! Burnt- hard as rock crust. Could not cut pieces. When charging $36. For a pie, paper plates & plastic utensils are ridiculous ! read more

The food here was probably more of a three star caliber - basic pizza, but tasty! What bumps this up to four stars is the ambiance. It's like you walked into an old west saloon and it's family friendly. I'd certainly consider returning if I'm ever back in grand lake. read more

We were in town for vacation and stumbled upon White Buffalo Pizza since it was one of the only restaurants in town open during the off season. It was quite empty except for our party of six and a few locals at the bar watching various sports games. There was only one man behind the bar but he was attentive and accommodating to us. We ordered a build your own pizza, a mango habanero pizza (delicious but the habaneros were SUPER hot, eat at your own risk), and two customized calzones. The pizzas were about $23 a piece and only fed two people which in my experience is on the higher end for but were worth every penny. The crusts were buttery, garlicky, and arguably as good as the pizza itself! The kitchen staff made a mistake on the cheese of one of the customized calzones and immediately made a new one before the dish even came out. It was our server who informed us of the mistake and apologized profusely. We wouldn't have even known about it! All in all, great experience! read more

Didn't know until today someone could screw up making a pizza. This had to be the worst pizza I have ever eaten in my many years walking on this planet. Totino's out of a box is a million times better. I don't understand the reviews raving about how good the pizza is; maybe we came in on an off night? The crust was too loose to hold a piece but too tough to cut with a knife-how is that possible? There was no way to eat it comfortably. The toppings, the meats, I couldn't tell what they were, the were so dry and burned, it seriously looked like small bits of charcoal. But the worst part was the saltiness. It tasted like what I assume a salt lick would taste like. My husband loves salt and even he was shocked by how salty it was. The pizza was inedible. I didn't even finish one piece and my husband only ate one piece which is unheard of. We didn't complain, just politely paid our bill and left. I've learned when in a small mountain towns you don't aggravate the locals. The service wasn't bad, our female server was actually pretty nice therefore the 2 stars. read more

My family had the white buffalo pizza and a sausage and mushroom pizza. Both were excellent. I will be coming back anytime I'm back in town.

Friends and I went here after getting in late to Grand Lake. The reviews weren't the best so I was a little skeptical but I am very happy we went here. It seems like they have recently reopened and revamped their pizza. We had the pizza with buffalo sauce, sundried tomatoes, and bacon and we tried their cheesy bread. And we were all very pleasantly surprised with how good both things were. Crust was thin and crispy without being too crunchy and the flavors on the pizza all worked really well together. Would definitely come back here! read more

Went there twice this week while we were in town. Had individual pizzas and salads Wednesday night, delicious!!! We went there again tonight and they were offering calzones, up to four toppings plus a drink, special. What great calzones!!!! They had just the right amount of dough for a calzone, and there were plenty of toppings in each one. They were hot, hugh, and very delicious!. They are baked in a brick oven. I really wish they were in our town, if they were they would be packed every night. I would highly recommend this place for pizzas and especially calzones. The atmosphere is great too. read more

Came into town after a day of driving and was craving a good pizza. Ordered mozzarella sticks and a pizza for the family. Was disappointed when the food came. First off, the pizza felt rather stiff and bland. Toppings were not super generous and cheese seemed like it was a thick plaster. The mozzarella sticks were very garlicky. Add on top of that a higher-than-anticipated price, I would have been happier with a frozen pizza and drinks at home. Atmosphere was pretty plain. Looked like fun games upstairs, but we didn't venture up. read more

I haven't written a Yelp review since 2013. That should tell you something. Dave the bartender/server was super friendly and working hard. That said, very little liquor was harmed in the making of tonight's cocktails. The food -- wow, it was exceptionally bad. We ordered a medium pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms and 45 minutes later it came out lukewarm with the edges burned. The cheese was congealed and plastic. What we overheard from Dave telling a local who picked up four to go was that they are all frozen cheese-only food service (Sysco or the like) and when ordered they pull one out of the freezer, throw on the toppings, sprinkle a little extra cheese, and bake. That's right, you're getting served a tricked-out freezer pizza -- just like you used to make in. Illegal when you were high AF. Except you weren't high because the drinks were all mixer and melted ice. read more
