“ We went on Valentine's Day and it was a great environment. We sat at the bar and the owner helped serve us. It was a great experience and the pizza was amazing. We will be returning customers! ”
“ Love me some good Chicago food. I always say that is the main thing I miss from Chicago. Not anymore. You suggested taking "dipped" off the menu. I wouldn't. That's true Portillos/Chicago style. It's wasn't too soggy. Maybe just clarify that for non-Chicagoans on the menu. And thank for for dipping it at my request. Great service. ”
“ Da Sauce's Chicago thin crust nearly nails the real deal. As an Illinois native, I was thrilled by their crust! The Italian sausage and green peppers were perfectly balanced on a crispy, flavorful base. Quick pickup service makes it an easy stop :) ”
“ The BEST Tavern Style Chicago pizza in Colorado! I gladly drive 30 min across town for this pizza! I order mine well done not burnt and cokes out perfect every time! ”
“ The best Pizza place I've found !! John is super friendly and energetic he's always quick to lend a hand making the food scooping ice cream washing dishes he treats his staff and his customers like family. He's from Chicago and I'm so happy he's brought a little piece of Chicago here to Denver. Denver food is horrible but Da Sauce is a gem. The building is beautiful the ceilings are so high and it's nice being able to see the staff make the pizzas in the middle of the room. I've tried Da Northsida it's so yummy and their calzones are so good too I love the dough. Their ice cream is homemade too and delicious. I'd def recommend this place to friends and family. Also the music was fire !! Pump up the jam and return of the Mack was playing ”
“ Chicago style thin crust pepperoni, and Italian sausage was delicious! The service was great, the atmosphere was really relaxing. ”
“ I think pizza is my love language, and John and Jandee got it right. Medium pizza (da north side) and a regular beef, two of us killed it with no leftovers while we sat at the bar and talked with staff. You like tavern style pizza? This is it in Denver. Can't wait to be back for the homemade ice cream. ”
“ I was so glad to have found this place on Yelp! This place was open late when nothing but fast food places were available. Great thin sliced pizza and homemade ice cream and super friendly service. Inside is small and casual, we didn't stay to dine indoors but just ordered our food to-go and everything came out quickly! If you could only order one thing here, I'd definitely recommend the ice cream over any other offerings! ”
“ My group and I randomly walked by this restaurant for a late dinner right after landing in Denver. What drew us in was the Happy Hour & Anniversary deals, and the fact that it was Chicago food (one of our favorite cities!) We walked in around 10pm and it was right after their dinner rush and right before the bar hoppers who wanted a late night snack that came in, so it was quite empty. We didn't expect much, but boy were we surprised! All the food was 10/10 and the service by the owner's wife, Jandee was 10000/10! We ordered Da South Sider pizza, a classic Chicago Dawg, and an Italian Beef. Everything was delicious and the pizza was definitely our favorite. You can definitely tell the food was made with love and came from Chicago. Jandee, the owner's wife and who ran the floor that night, made the most amazing cocktails (that were only $5 each with their special!) She was the absolute best host and even made up a new drink with our group (ask for a Ram bomb if you ever stop by!) We also learned that they do catering and allow events to be hosted there, if anyone is interested in that. Overall a 10/10 experience and will be stopping by again the next time we visit Denver ”
