Blue Grasshopper Brewery
Anyone who is nervous about trying new beers doesn’t have to worry at Blue Grasshopper, they offer all of the local beers you already love and offer some of their own brews if you want to try something new. Those who enjoy good music with a cold beer will enjoy this pub because there is never a shortage of live bands.
Dion’s Pizza
Sun-Thurs: 10:30am-10pm
Fri-Sat: 10:30am-11pm (hours can change without notice)
Dion’s. Dion’s never changes. Every location seems to be a hold-over from the 1980s, and every location seems staffed by the same army of teenagers. Fortunately, that holds true for the pizza as well. No matter where you find yourself in Albuquerque, the pizza is made fresh to order (you can watch the high school-aged staff rolling and tossing the dough) and is always, always delicious with a side of ranch.
Pizza 9
Sun-Thurs: 10am-11pm
Fri-Sat: 10am-midnight (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: Pizza
Pizza 9, from the former owner of Chicago Beef, slings dough at multiple locations across town. It’s not deep-dish, but the puffed up, buttery crust will warm Midwestern hearts, as will the Fire Eater pie—a monument to capsaicin, it scathes taste buds with pepperoni, jalapeños, green chile and hot giardiniera relish. With gluten-free crust options, it’s a perfect spot for groups with opposing dietary needs, and with several locations, you can have it all delivered right to your front door!

Sal-E-Boy’s Pizzeria
Mon-Thurs: 11am-9pm
Fri-Sat: 11am-10pm
Sun: 11am-9pm (hours can change without notice)
Finding a good pie is a lot harder than it used to be, and Sal-E-Boy’s has been around for 22 years—longer than most delivery drivers for the big chain pie places. If you like seriously thick crust, you’ve found a home. If you like the idea of combining meatballs, marinara, cheese and green chile in an “Italian burrito” then you’ve found nirvana.

Turtle Mountain Brewing Company
Sun-Thu 11am-8:30pm, Fri-Sat 11am-9:30pm (hours can change without notice)
$$ • Booze Served • Craft Beer • Growler refills • Take Out / To-Go • Outdoor Patio • Wireless Internet
They take beer seriously here, and Turtle Mountain is one of the few places west of the river where you'll find house-brewed beer. Don't leave without trying the thin-crusted pizzas or a calzone. Oh, and order some root beer for the kids—that's made there too.
