When my friends and I get together in the afternoon for
pizza, it’s a no-brainer; we go to Gabatoni’s.
Now, Gab’s has been around for as long as I can remember. It’s also my very favorite place for
pizza. Gab’s has that Old Italian world
feel inside that might remind one of something out of a movie. I’ve come to know the staff by name since
they see me in there so often. You
can’t ask for a nicer bunch of people who make you feel right at home.

| Gabatoni's Special |
As we entered Gab’s this afternoon, there was a funeral meal
going on in the main dining area so we were directed to the bar area which is
just as nice. I usually get ‘the
Special’ or four-item (sausage, green pepper, onion and mushroom) when ordering
and get a large if I have to share with at least one person but I’ve had other
combos which are equally as good. So, we
ordered our “usual” and another pizza (sausage, with ham and green peppers on
half). It wasn’t long before our pies
were sitting in front of us. I think
they cut them into little squares so it doesn’t seem like you’re eating too
much but after coming all this way, I want to get my “fix”.
There is nothing closer to heaven than biting into your
Gab’s pizza for that first bite. Just
the right temperature….don’t think I’ve ever burned my tongue on this one.
The pizza crust is oh-so-thin and crispy and the pilings of
the ingredients are just right…not too much cheese …just enough to stay put on
the crust and not slide off. It’s baked to perfection. They put the right
amount of ingredients along with the tomato sauce which is lightly sweet. It’s what pizza should be.
They also have a full
menu of other foods…sandwiches and meals.
Even though the meatball sandwiches are also one of my fave foods from
Gab’s, I need to have the pizza. I can’t stand seeing someone else’s pizza and sniffing
the aroma…what can I say? I have been
known to split a meatball sandwich/pizza combo with anyone who will allow it so
I can partake of both.
When leaving, I do not have the
so-full-I-need-to-loosen-my-belt feeling even though on occasion I’ve eaten half
of a large pizza…surprising to some people who can’t believe a person of my
size can eat that much!
As we are walking out the door, it’s not unusual for us to
be planning our next outing to Gabatoni’s.
I will definitely be back soon!
