If you drove past and didn't know..you wouldn't bother stopping. that would be your greatest mistake. This place produces one of the best pizzas this side of NYC. generous, fresh toppings, marvelous crust...what more is there in a pizza???!!!
If you drive across town to pick up a pizza, it will not last the drive home, and your family will be very disappointed.
I've been known to travel far and wide to find the best ny pizza and have sampled the various places said to originate the style in ny and new haven, ct. Well, the flavor here was pretty good but there was much to be desired. This has to be the soggiest pizza I have ever come across. I don't know if it was a one day only thing but my party got 3 pizzas and they all were so wet that we couldn't keep the cheese anywhere near the bread, to say the cheese slid off was an understatement. I believe the sauce was watery and the oven was not quite hot enough.
My friends and I decided to try this place out after it was recommended to us as the best pizza joint in the Colorado Springs area. They make east coast (New York) style, but unlike some New York style, the pizzas were not too thin crust at all. It had the same thickness as what you would find at Dominoes or Papa John's.
My favorite of the bunch was the ham with onions. I found it a bit weird, that for some reason, all the pizzas were a bit soggy on the bottom, which detracted from the experience a little bit. Other than that, I really enjoyed all the pizzas that I tried.
The only drawback that I could see was that their dough wasn't the best tasting. If you want to try a great pizza dough, go to the Homemade Pizza Company in Chicago. They have the kind of dough that tastes great, without putting anything on it.
Overall, I was very happy with these pizzas. Also, please note that I grew up in Chicago and so have ridiculously high expectations for pizza. Definitely not the best that I've had, but I don't doubt that these are the best pizzas in Colorado Springs. If you're looking for a great local pizza joint, look no further.
Oh my gosh!!! I dream about the Pizza Bianca! Seriously though, I hate pizza but I will swear by their pizza.
I looooove their pizza. It definitely has a unique taste. My favorite is their thin crust plain cheese pizza. I wish they had a location in Denver :(
AMAZING
We go to Colorado Springs every year and we ALWAYS stop to grab a pie, salad, and some garlic knots on our first night in town.
Delicious Pizza, Greasy, big sliced floppy. . . MMhmhmmmmm . . . When do I go back to the springs again?
I have heard bad things about their delivery, but I have never had them deliver so I can't comment!
All in all a must for fans of New York style pies!
This was the best pizza I have had in a long time! The crust was perfect. The sausage was spicy... very nice
As an avid pizza aficionado originally growing up in the NYC area where my father built a napoletana pizza oven in my back yard I can say that Boriello Brothers is a great slice joint. Definetly the best slice i've had in the Colorado Springs area and the closest thing around here to a NY slice that i've found. A regular slice here is good but what i really like is the white pie (bianco). I give my stamp of approval and i recommend this place to all my friends. The location on Barnes and Oro Blanco is a very comparable off shoot to this downtown pizza joint.
Having just moved here from NYC, this is the closest resemblance to NY pizza that I've found. It's not great or anything. It's kinda like the average slice you'd get in NY, but for CO, it's excellent.
Came here after checking out some houses in the area. I had had Poor Richard's the day before and was rather unimpressed, so was hoping for something more to my liking, since I'm moving to the area.
And boy we scored. Much better. Good amount of cheese, great sauce, copious amounts of grease. One of the better NY-style places I've had in Colorado. I ate too much, so I guess it was pretty good.
Great NY style pizza - hand tossed thin crust. No goo or raw cheese floating in a sea of raw dough here.
Keep it simple and order a cheese pie. A sprinkle of parsley is nice. One of our favorites is green olives and banana peppers. But really, you want a cheese pie.
Make sure they cook it through. Remind them.
Seating area is sterile and uninspired. They don't serve beer due to the proximity of the high-school. This is to-go only for us (the alcoholic family).
My favorite NY style pizza to take home. The blanco, white pizza, is what we get most of the time.
I got a large pizza there last night and it sucked, the crust was hardly cooked so we had to put it in the oven again. :( I thought it was gonna be way better, but no such luck.
Best pizza I've had in COS. All of the locations are good.
The only true East Coast style pizza place in town. Their thin crust is a fold-able treat. I've tried most types and I liked them all with the exception of their white pizza and pesto. The Calzones are good too. Modest sit- down area. Crazy at lunch time with Palmer High across the street. Haven't tried their subs.
This is absolutely the best pizza you will find outside of New York. It is as authentic as it gets. If you like New York style pizza, this is the place for you: big floppy pieces that you have to fold to eat, crusty yet chewy dough, the perfect tomato sauce and a generous amount of cheese. It's truly out of this world. Don't forget to blot off the grease on your slice of heaven with a napkin first! If you prefer Chicago style pizza, look elsewhere. DISCLAIMER: Borriello Brothers has expanded. I believe there are two more locations now. None of the other locations have the same quality of pizza as the original Borriello's on Platte. It's very similar, but you won't find the five star pizza you'll get at their downtown location. The difference is in the crust. I actually asked the owner why the crust is so different, and he explained to me that the oven at their original location makes all the difference because it's one of a kind and has been broken in. This five star rating is for the original Borriello Brothers on Platte. FYI: If you want the real thing, it's worth going out of the way to their original location.
