Coming from Chicago I miss the diversity of pizza and the pizza culture there. This place is the only joint I’ve tried that comes close to reminding me of the aura of so many good restaurants/pizzerias. The quality of ingredients and attention to detail is

I’m laughing hysterically at the people who left negative reviews because the crust was too crispy. Someone actually compared it to Costco. Seriously?The crust, the sauce, the cupped pepperoni … this is made by people who know pizza, and love pizza.This is the closest thing we’ve got to authentic NYC pizza like DiFara, John’s, etc. They’ve nailed everything about this. Best pizza in Abq.

Ordered a pepperoni to go after reading emphatic endorsements on Reddit and was impressed!Crispy but chewy thin crust pizza bursting with flavor. An excellent start to the weekend.

Absolutely incredible and absolutely lived up to the hype. Great place for classic pizzas at a really high level with quality ingredients. The dough was the ideal balance of chewy and crispy. The sauce was tangy and rich with so much depth of flavor. The cheese was perfectly browned from the brick oven. Oh, and the pizza was massive. We ate it so fast I forgot to take pics. This place is amazing.

Lived around it for a while now, omw back from store, not wanting to cook, and seeing a guy waving a sign looking like he was hyping the place, I dropped in on a whim. Staff was friendly, quickly attended me. When I came back they ran the pizza out to my car. Got the vodka pizza with some spicy honey drizzled on it, my God fricking so good. Will be back. Thanks staff for an amazing dinner.

By far my favorite pizza joint in ABQ. People are always friendly. Atmosphere is really cool with eclectic art and rad music playing. Pizza starts with great crust and has the real deal ingredients. They don’t mess around. Prices are totally reasonable.Vegetarian options: Many specials are vegetarian

I love Rumor! Their white sauce pizza specials never disappoint. I wish I could eat an entire Rumor white sauce pizza with lemon wedges every day of my life.

All I’ve seen is how amazing this place was from friends to just instagram post. So I wanted to try myself because everybody seemed to love it so colored me surprised when I ordered their pepperoni pizza and one it looked nothing like the picture and two I would say Costco has a better pizza at this point. I’m hoping that it was just an off night for them or maybe they had just gotten done with a big rush, but it definitely wasn’t worth the time it took to drive down there or the pizza. It was super disappointing.

I’d heard good things, but my partner and I were disappointed and won’t be back. We’ve never had brick oven pizza that was so crispy/crunchy. Each bite snapped off. Flavor was good, service was great, but that crispy crust was not doing it for us. We got individual slices from 2 different pizzas. Maybe a fresh whole pizza would fare better
Pizza was great. Small place mainly take out but they have a few tables outside.

The pizza is fantastic, but I was unprepared for a $30 pepperoni pizza, nor the fact that there is no dine-in. It was pretty big though, and tasted great. The crust was perfect! Unfortunately, it's probably $10 more than I wanted to spend, because there's only one size available (large).
