Favorite Littleton Pizza Restaurants

There are plenty of great Littleton pizza restaurants, whether you like your pie thin or thick crust, loaded with traditional or offbeat toppings. Pizza is truly the most international of foods – ostensibly from Italy, though few there had heard of it before the Americanized version made its way back to their shores. Here are some of the best Littleton pizza restaurants:

Romano's Italian Restaurant

A Littleton mainstay for decades, the motto at Romano's Italian Restaurant is simple: “Our family serving your family.” The Romano family services traditional Old World pizza using much the same methods as grandfather Giovanni served from his push cart in New York City 100 years ago. Their brick oven pizzas come build-your-own style with a selection of popular toppings, or a dozen specialty pieces – including tortellini pizza, roasted red pepper pesto or gluten-free pizza.

McKinners Pizza Bar

A relatively new addition to the Littleton pizza scene, McKinners Pizza Bar is an eclectic mix of Italian pie, liquor, live music and even a small art gallery. With its brick walls and open ductwork, the interior has the feel of an industrial site dressed up for a party. They’re egalitarian about pizza styles here: Order it thin-crust or deep dish, stuffed or traditional cracker crust. Go for everyday toppings or try one of McKinners’ offbeat innovations like the “Daniel Oystermiller” (smoked oysters and sausage), “Mandarin” (oranges, balsamic vinegar and pecans) or the “Hot Diggety Dog” (frankfurters and chili).

Il Vicino Wood Oven Pizza

Combining Old World style pizza pie with modern speed, IL Vicino Wood Oven Pizza offers all the quality of slow wood fire cooking with none of the wait. Some patrons may be put off by its resemblance to fast food establishments – you place your order at a counter – but they’re soon converts. Most of the pizzas come in one size good for one hungry customer. Thin crust is the style here. Choose from 15 varieties, such as pesto and shrimp.

Old Chicago

You don’t have to guess very long to figure out the preferred pizza at Old Chicago. The Windy City is synonymous with deep-dish pie, piled high with heaping helpings of toppings – especially spicy sausage. Everything’s made from scratch: no pre-fab pizza here! There’s also a full bar and plenty of big-screen TVs tuned to your favorite sports team.

Lil Ricci’s New York Pizza

Few rivalries can match New York vs. Chicago style pizza, so if you don’t care for deep dish then Lil Ricci’s New York Pizza might be your slice of pie. Pizza is sold by the slice here, big enough to fold in half. Whole pies are also available, in either New York thin style or thicker Sicilian. No delivery available, but curbside takeout is.
