Authentic, delicious pizza and a fantastic atmosphere! Benzina nails it. The crust is perfect, toppings are fresh, and the vibe is warm and inviting. A must-try for pizza lovers! 🍕

I ordered the Caesar salad and the cauliflower appetizer. Both were exceptionally good. The cauliflower was surprisingly amazing. Also ordered the tiramisu and it was light not too sweet and delicious!

This place is such a Gem. Benzina’s dishes are well balanced, with fancier options and nightly specials, alongside classics like spaghetti, lasagna, and of course pizza! The chefs know how to elevate these classics perfectly, with delicious ingredients and gorgeous presentation. The music fits the restaurant’s aesthetic well and the service from Jordan was excellent!

The burrata is the best in Denver. Love the wine selection well. Thursday night burger night is a nice add to the menu.

Date night at this place was a success! We ordered the homemade bread and it came with a cacio e Pepe sauce to dip that was mind blowing. I also ordered the burrata and it arrived with some bread w olives on it. For our entrees we ordered the tagliatelle, it was delicious and the chicken parmigiana. I was so full from the bread appetizers that I didn’t eat my entree but I did try it and it was very good. Portion sizes are decent. We also ordered the panna cotta and the affogato, my husband really enjoyed the panna cotta but the affogato was a miss for me. It was dusted with espresso grounds and it just made it weird. The atmosphere was nice, I felt it was a little bright-our table had a light directly over it that was a little too much. However our server was great, the food was great. We will be back!

This was my first visit to Benzina and I truly enjoyed it! The food was delicious, the service excellent and the ambience was also really great and it was quiet enough that it was easy to have a conversation. It had the Chicken Parmesan and it was best not have I have ever had. The noodles served wit the chicken were excellent and the tiramisu was also delicious. The bread and dipping sauce was also really good and so we will be back!

We hadn't been to Benzina in a few years ( sadly to say.) However, despite the construction on Colfax , it was not difficult to park on a busy Friday night! Everything was absolutely wonderful! Our waitress was over the top in meeting our needs, friendly and kind!!! The food was so delicious!!!! Pasta, salmon , chicken parm!!!! But ‘THE BREAD AND CACO E PEPI DIP!!!!!!!! OMG!!! We could not stop eating it!!! Oh, and a great wine list and drink menu ! The owner checks in on you several times, to make sure you are doing OK, so what else can you ask for???? Definitely get over there ASAP!!!

It’s great. It’s great every time. The pizza is fantastic, the staff are kind and helpful, and the drinks are solid. They’ve got their ingredients dialed and the carbonara pizza is insanely good.
We had a really amazing meal at Benzina last night. The food was amazing as always, but the lamb gnocci was out of this world and they recently added gluten free pizza crust, bread, and pasta which were all incredible. Hannah was great and even brought us two separate dipping sauces for the bread to avoid gluten contamination. Thank you for a great evening!

Okay central Denver folks… we need to talk about Benzina. They’ve clearly done a “reboot”, and my goodness have they NAILED IT! The pizza is fantastic…but oh my mangiamo molto bene the lasagna is spot-on like what we’ve only had in Italy! Slow-cooked bolognese between house made pasta sheets and true bechamel sauce (not ricotta or mozzarella). You gotta go eat this. Really. SERIOUSLY. 💥💥💥

Loved Benzina again. Awesome pizzas. Don't miss the roasted cauliflower. Also, if you're lucky enough to get Hannah as your server, lucky you. She's fantastic!

I’m so thankful for this place. The food is delicious! Today the Mushroom Pizza, Smashed Meatballs and Chicken Parmigiana were all winners. The service and vibe are amazing. Please keep them busy and thriving!
