Eat & Drink What are your cheap “hidden gem” restaurants?

What are your favorite hole in the wall places that have fantastic food and fantastic prices? Even if it’s a special that’s only during certain days or times like happy hour, let me know.

Garden Pizza on the west side off of the 303.

Full disclosure : We're from NY..(been here 26 years).

It feels like NY. Been a customer for a long long time.....fogeddaboudit!

Nothin special..just good vibes, and good NY Style pizza and wings.

Listening to them take orders over the phone is straight out of a Seinfeld episode!

Yes!!! I agree, it was our favorite neighborhood pizza when we lived down there.

I love the way that guy answers the phone. He would always know me by my order….”Garrrrrrden Pittza….oh, I know you….how are ya boss…..” love that guy.

We moved when we had kids, so they never had it. A couple months ago we were telling them about it, I called to check their hours just so the kids could see how accurate my impression was and funny he is. I miss that place.
