I have been coming to THIS specific Abo’s, no joke, since I was very young in elementary school, and I’m almost 30. This place is so… charming and welcoming, I can’t even begin to describe it. It’s just your typical hole-in-the-wall kinda joint. But the people and the food are what make it. The guy running this place is so nice, and his workers are just as kind. I MUCH prefer this Abo’s to the other one in Boulder — every time I try to do anything with them, I always have some kind of issue. Never had an issue here in all my years. I do miss all the old creepy masks on the wall though!!! (Only OGs will remember that. Apparently, the masks are all fine, they’re just with the original owner after he sold the place.) Dude chose a good new owner cause I never even noticed a difference minus the masks until I met the new owner. (Also some of the best arcade machines there got removed… and the ones that do remain very often eat your quarters. But they’re very easy to replace your quarter if this happens!

The service was quick, informal, and brief. Didn’t have too much of an interaction with the guy behind the counter, but since it was such a fast transaction, I didn’t mind. I would go to Abo’s again for a piece of pizza if I were...
Read moreDearest, Abo's, I order, I dined, I cried, I yearn for more. Some say "it was just a slice of cheese"! I say it was a transportive experience where my slice was the medium of conveyance to a...dare I say? "Slice" of heaven! The crust was thin and sturdy, offering a delightful crunch, while performing the oft thankless task of providing the structural support necessary to make any pizza little more than a mess on your shirt. The sauce married with the cheese (neither of which was too much nor too little) to create a harmonious balance of sweet, citrus, and savory. Curse you for pulling me away from reality on this culinary excursion! Curse you for now, until...
