Abo’s Pizza is a Colorado institution, founded in 1977 by New York City transplant Steve Abo. A few years prior to its opening, “On the Hill” in Boulder, Abo, a University of Colorado student along with some of his buddies, constantly found themselves yearning for but not being able to find their favorite “munchie” food, a great big slice of New York-style pizza. Yes, that would be the fold-over kind in the classic Neapolitan-style.

History

Abo’s Pizza has a signature taste. The crust is strictly New York City Neapolitan, is always hand-tossed and the dough is light and chewy and never frozen. Steve Abo adapted the secret sauce recipe from Graziano’s, and it has a similar yet unique character made to Abo’s own specifications.

Customers come first

Fresh comes first at Abo’s. Everything is prepared daily, so whichever pie you choose is going to be tasty. Order off the menu or customize your pizza to your heart’s and stomach’s content. Why is Abo’s better? “Definitely, it’s the ingredients!” says Charles Sarni, a manager at the Broadway store in Boulder. “The dough is fresher, and the sauce is some of the best I’ve tasted. And I’m from New York, I know the difference.”

Licensing

Although many Abo’s customers think it’s a franchise, you should be happy to find out it will be a license agreement that you sign to become an Abo’s Pizza partner. This means even though both franchise and licensing agreements are governed by the same laws, franchises are in the securities category while licensing is in the contract law category.

Abo’s sauce is sweet but with a hint of tartness that does not detract from the toppings. Abo’s cheese is the highest quality 100% mozzarella that has a moist and chewy consistency. Multiple toppings and combinations abound.
