Greenwood Village, Colorado –
Pizza Republica is celebrating a remarkable milestone as it marks 16 years of serving the Greenwood Village community with authentic Italian cuisine, warm hospitality, and timeless tradition. Since opening its doors in 2009, the restaurant has become a beloved local institution—one that brings the flavors of southern Italy to Colorado through handcrafted recipes, carefully selected wines, and a dining experience that feels both elevated and inviting.
The 16th anniversary, officially took place on May 9, is a moment of pride for the entire Pizza Republica team. It’s a reflection of years of hard work, adaptability, and a shared passion for excellence that has guided the restaurant through economic shifts, industry challenges, and changing tastes. Despite it all, Pizza Republica has remained a steady presence in Greenwood Village, offering guests not only delicious food but a consistent sense of welcome and community.
Much of the restaurant’s longevity can be attributed to its founding philosophy: combine high-quality ingredients with authentic techniques, and serve every guest with genuine care. Over the years, this approach has attracted a loyal following. Families return regularly for dinner traditions, professionals rely on the restaurant for business lunches, and out-of-town visitors are often drawn in by word of mouth. The dining room, patio, and bar have each become gathering spaces where memorable conversations unfold and special occasions are marked with a toast.
At the heart of the experience is the food—classic southern Italian recipes prepared with attention to detail and a commitment to flavor. Signature wood-fired pizzas, house-made pastas, and seasonally inspired dishes keep the menu fresh while honoring culinary tradition. Whether it’s a Margherita pizza cooked to perfection in the Neapolitan oven, a rich Bolognese served over fresh tagliatelle, or a carefully sourced antipasti platter, each item tells a story of Italian heritage and craftsmanship.
While much has evolved since 2009, Pizza Republica has never lost sight of its roots. From its early days, the restaurant set out to be more than just a place to eat—it aimed to become part of the community’s fabric. Over the years, the Greenwood Village location has hosted countless birthday parties, anniversaries, business meetings, holiday events, and wedding rehearsals. The private dining room continues to serve as a favorite for intimate gatherings, offering the ambiance and service of a fine dining experience with the comfort of a neighborhood gem.
The staff, many of whom have been with the restaurant for years, have also played a major role in shaping the guest experience. From the chefs in the kitchen to the servers and hosts greeting guests at the door, the team shares a dedication to delivering not just meals, but moments. Their knowledge of the menu, familiarity with regulars, and pride in their work set the tone for a dining experience that’s warm, attentive, and deeply satisfying.
As Pizza Republica reflects on the past 16 years, the future looks just as exciting. Plans are in motion to continue refining the menu, enhancing the guest experience, and deepening relationships with local producers and partners. New seasonal offerings will continue to be introduced throughout the year, and the restaurant’s wine program will be refreshed with more boutique selections from Italy’s diverse growing regions.
Though the restaurant industry is constantly changing, Pizza Republica’s core mission remains unchanged: to provide exceptional food and service in a setting that brings people together. This milestone anniversary serves as a thank-you to the community that has embraced and supported them every step of the way.
Guests are encouraged to visit the Greenwood Village location this spring to celebrate the 16th anniversary and enjoy the timeless atmosphere that has made Pizza Republica a staple of the neighborhood. For reservations or more information, visit pizzarepublica.com.
