Diversity equals deliciousness at the Buenos Aires Pizzeria, a downtown cafe that delivers the tastes of Italy via Argentina. Named for the cosmopolitan Argentine capital, the shop creates pizza, empanadas and sandwiches based on those created in South America by transplanted Italians. The inventive recipes, combined with a kitchen that prides itself on the high quality of its meats and ingredients, makes for one of Denver's premier pizzerias, a critically acclaimed and popular spot that creates pies unlike anyone else's. You don't have to take our word for it; just try its eponymous house specialty, a pizza of mozzarella, ham, hearts of palm, roasted red peppers and salsa.

Located around the corner from Coors Field, Buenos Aires Pizzeria is split into two separate locations: a take-out facility at 1319 22nd, and two doors down, the casual, colorful dining room into which the establishment expanded. Argentine owner Francis Carrera, whose extended family comprises much of the staff, provides his patrons with more than just pizza, also offering up the establishment as a showcase for local creativity. The cafe's walls feature local artists, and the basement hosts live music Saturdays and twice-weekly tango lessons.
