Perfect atmosphere and decor. Beautiful location in Boulder. Wood fired pizzas are thin crusted and very tasty. We had the atomica, traffic jam and the Margherita pizzas. Mango sorbet was the very best we have ever had! Their salad special was amazing: rocket with bacon, avocado and jicama with a lime vinaigrette.

I used to be opposed to eating at Proto's, the price just felt too high for a pizza to me. But this place has really won me over.
I eat pizza all around the world. Any town or city I visit, I get at least a slice of pizza. It's just my thing. There was a place in France once (yea, Paris) that had a more memorable pizza, but that's it. But this place also had a line that wrapped around the block and a two-hour wait to get in. Everywhere else I go, I miss Proto's.
I went to San Francisco and ate the pizza that was awarded the best in the USA that year by a major publication. You had to call it in at least two days before because the waiting list was so long. Nope, Proto's is better.
I walk in and they know my name, they're super friendly, and even remember how many parms and hot pepper oils I want. I keep swearing I need to make some time to come grab drinks at the bar and get to know these lovely people better, but alas just haven't had time yet. Soon!
The crust is always perfect. I wish I could get my homemade pizza crust this good, but I can't. The sauce has just the right amount of tang and sweetness counteracting one another, without being overly salty. Cheese is just right, the only complaint I can find is that sometimes the pepperoncini peppers have stems and caps in them (which are inedible), but that's a minor gripe.
I like the Atomica (I prefer to sub out the black olives for pepperoncini peppers) but also I really like the Pontiff. Both pizzas are delicious as-is or with some spicy giardineira sprinkled overtop. Have some jalapeno chips, sharp cheddar chips, or malt vinegar chips on the side and you're in heaven.

Flavorful authentic thinner crusted pizza. Cool vibe. Great service. Delicious salads and desserts. Our favorite pizza place.

Awful terrible service. I arrived a little before 9 PM on a Friday evening. There were people that were seated and had just ordered. As soon as I walked in, they told me they were closed. The sign clearly states that it closes at 10 pm on Fridays so I don’t understand why they lied to me about something clearly stated on their door. Their open sign was fully lit as well. I don’t know if it was because I was wearing a crop top or because they don’t like how I look or anything. I just know that they had seated people literally thirty seconds before I walked in. It was very rude and unprofessional.

Angel pie. Pepperoni and Pesto, delicious.

Love this spot great pizza. Gym rats next door need to learn not to drop their weights after each set though!
Love this place and love that it's so convenient to our home. Packed on a Friday night (inside and outside), as it should be. The MOST polite folks there to welcome you. Pizzas are creative and tasty. I find myself ordering combinations I would never imagine anywhere else. Nicely toasty crust and quality ingredients.

Eating outdoors here during the late afternoon is a real treat. The variety of pies is interesting and a great spot for a meal with a friend.
