Apparently they have dumped the lame staff or retrained them. Â Fair has changed from Italian to Burgers and Pizza (smart move.) Â Prices are a bit high for what you get, but then its Colorado Ski Country (tm) and you can expect a good bending over at any other place outside of Minturn. Â There are vids, entertainment games, and some fooz. Â Machines seem to be well maintained when I was there, punch-a-game was a bit pricey IMHO, but then again I don't play them much either. Â Food, good. Â Staff, good. Â Company/owner climbing the local ladder from poor to good and hopefully heading to 'great.' down the road.
Review Source:Honest to Bar food as it gets.
Summary: Outstanding Delivery Bar food. Delivered to your home! which is rare up here, Frankly Ballsy. Their menu is perfect; Outstanding Burgers, pizza BUT also they're manning up to the fryer with some solid garden offerings. any other place up here does strictly pies and baking other fare in the oven.
Tips; Try the appetizer sampler platter(its enormous.((PERIOD))), the topping are actual toppings so be surprised, the burgers are what burgers should be and finally: when ordering the take out is also in a busy restaurant. Have patience and try to remember when, or what it would have been like if, you worked in a restaurant.
From outta town? maybe expect to warm your food a bit as temperatures tend to be cold as hell up here. IE.? turn on the oven.
I have to say, I feel some of the other reviews are wrong. We were in Minturn for the big bike race and went to a party that was fed with Magustos pizza. I am not a fan of a thick crust on my pizza, and had been led to believe this was the case here. No! The crust was thin, and crispy, the sauce good, light and not just Ragu'y. The toppings I chose included a sausage with other toppings, and one that must have been a cheeseburger with burger, red onion and pickle, which worked for me. My wife really liked her pepperoni. I have to say, when I want a pizza in the Vail Valley I am going to look at Magustos as my go to choice. The prices for a pie are really good, the pizza is great and they deliver. This combo makes them worth a call or a visit.
Review Source:Me and a big group of guys were staying in Minturn for 5 days on a ski trip and we drove right past this place each day to and from the slopes. Â A few of us decided after a long day of skiing that we wanted some pizza and since we were exhausted (and the other half of our group headed to a different resort for the day) we decided to venture just down the street to Magusto's.
We were not expecting anything extraordinary, but we were pleasantly surprised. We ordered 2 pizzas (house special and supreme) and both were excellent (especially considering we were in Minturn)! Â It's New York style thin crust...the cheese, sauce and toppings were all better than expected but the crust was really the standout. The atmosphere was just ok but I'm rating it 5 stars based on the pizza and considering where it's located. We'll definitely be back when we're in town next year!
I was a little nervous stepping into this joint after seeing the awful Yelp reviews. Alas, the peeps I was with insisted that it was hard to screw up pizza and burgers.
I immediately noticed that they place was bit confusing. There was a bar area in one room where a guy was attempting to set up some stereo equipment. We were led to the back room where there was a foosball table, a table saw, a laptop computer with lots of papers on one table and then some actual dining tables. It just felt kinda weird in there.
The menu was also a bit confusing. They had a bunch of fried bar food for appetizers, burgers, pizza, and Italian food for main entrees. We decided on a small Stach pizza to split and the others ordered burgers. The pizza wasn't too bad. Although, it kind of reminded me Digornio or some other thicker crust frozen pizza. The fresh jalapeno and cilantro were a nice touch. The others seemed to like their food. I tried a fried which was fine. The service was decent.
I guess I was expecting it to be really, really bad and it wasn't. It definitely wasn't good either. Â I'll be looking for another place to eat next time I'm in Minturn.
We "accidentally" ate here because the restaurant we had been referred to was closed. We were pleasantly surprised. I had the California burger. It was cooked perfect with fresh guacamole and thick strips of bacon. I thought it tasted great. Everyone else enjoyed their pizzas. They were much larger than expected. The toppings were tasty and plentiful and the crust was thin and crispy. The pizzas were great value for the price. Zoey,our waitress, was very friendly and attentive. She added to our fun evening. Â We would go their again.
Review Source:Hate to say it, but most inconsistent pizza I've EVER had. Â I JUST ordered and attempted to eat a pizza I ordered from Magusto's. The cheese, toppings were good and well done. The pizza was actually cooked well w the crust actually being decent. However, the sauce was very bad, almost awful. Also, as I was eating, I was interrupted by a TERRIBLE taste of chemicals, almost tasting like fertilizer put on lawns. Something had to have been sprayed and/or came in contact w my pizza. Ruined everything and threw the rest away. This is the 5th chance we've given Magusto's and it was the worst. Sometimes its soggy, not edible. Sometimes flavorless...you really never know what you're going to get. This was the last chance and Magusto's blew it. NEVER AGAIN...just hope I don't get sick....
Review Source:I think this place has one of the best pies in the valley. They actually leave the seeds in their jalapeños so they have a real kick to them, not just the pickled kind. They are open late with two billiard tables and a soon to be ping pong table. Nice, relaxed local scene too. Not so crowded with drunk people that they're stepping on your shoes.
Review Source:This was a perfect late night meal for us to cap off skiing and apres ski at Vail.
Despite their location in Minturn, Magustos delivers anywhere in Vail & Lion's Head villages until 2am. Â They offer up homemade meatball-based dishes, and have a variety of specialty pizzas along with the usual Italian dishes. Â We were quite satisfied with our meal and would recommend Magustos, especially if you're too lazy to venture out into the cold!
