Oh boy, oh boy: Johnny's Pizza is a great place. The nicest people and a space that's just right - and it'll be just perfection on that patio overlooking the Sandias as soon as the heat of summer backs off a bit. I went for lunch, which got busy toward 1130. I got a 10" meat lover's and figured it would be easy. Well, it was delicious, but they went so heavy on the (fantastic!) toppings that I couldn't finish it (and I'm a big eater, with the BMI to prove it). Great sauce, great crust (good rise, good chew, good blister), reasonable wait. Reasonable pricing turns out to be a real value price once you factor in the delicious taste and the fantastic quality. Folks, I've only been here once, but based on this visit, Johnny's might be my favorite pizza in town now. My friend got the value-priced lunch special combo and had them give him a chicken parm (solid) and green chile wings along with his drink. He was quite happy (we remarked about how it's amazing that folks from out of town can come in and create a green chile dish like this that genuinely pleases the old hands), but told me that he'd probably split the sandwich with his wife were he to do this combo again. And the whole time the owner kept checking on us (and everyone else) and offering pleasant conversation. Wow - what a treat! I am planning to return soon (even though we almost couldn't live further away and still be in Albuquerque), and this time I'll bring my wife. And I'll get gelato this next time - I owe it to myself! read more
