Sometimes when getting out of a club, all you want is just a great slice or two of pizza. Two Fisted Mario's Pizza is located right on Market Street in LoDo and stays open late -- 2 a.m. Sunday through Wednesday and 3 a.m. Thursday through Saturday. (They'll sometimes stay open longer as long as there's a crowd.) Their crust is doughy, thin and crunchy and the pizza sauce they use is delicious. Warning: it will be hard for you to eat just one slice. Also, while you're waiting for your slices you can do some pretty good people watching and enjoy some loud music on the speakers (usually punk).

If it's a late night corn dog you're seeking, you can get one -- a large, fantastic one -- at Euclid Hall, located just off Larimer Square.

If you prefer a brat burger with a pretzel bun to a corn dog you can get it here. Or just feast on some Chicken and Waffles with yummy maple syrup and salty walnuts. It's a guarantee you won't go to bed hungry.
