What happened after Food Paradise?

Pizzeria Locale brought Frasca Hospitality Group's fast-casual pizza concept to Boulder, Colorado, serving quick-fired, Neapolitan-style pies through a counter-service model developed by Bobby Stuckey and chef Lachlan Mackinnon-Patterson, the team behind Frasca Food and Wine. The Boulder spot, at 1730 Pearl Street, was the original Pizzeria Locale location. In December 2022, according to Boulder Reporting Lab, the restaurant announced it would close temporarily for a rebrand. It reopened in February 2023, according to Denver Westword, as Pizzeria Alberico, a full-service Italian restaurant with an expanded wine, cocktail, and amaro program.

Westword reported the new name draws on the maiden name of co-owner Bobby Stuckey's wife, Dannette, and nods to Naples. A 2026-09-08 check of pizzeriaalberico.com listed current hours, menus, and takeout ordering for the Boulder address under the Frasca family of restaurants.
