 Greek Specialties & Pizza |
1341 Clairmont Road Atlanta, GA 30033 United States +1 404 636 1100 http://www.athenspizzaatlanta.... |
Located near Emory University, this is a longtime favorite of the hungry college crowd. Unassuming and friendly, this family-run restaurant is home to great pizza and even better Greek specialties. Diner booths and plastic tables are the stage for some great pizza, but the Greek entrees steal the show. The gyros are huge and filled with hearty portions of juicy rotisserie lamb. Moussaka and other Greek favorites are available as well. The pizza is stacked high with toppings, and the ultra-sweet baklava adds a perfect ending to any meal. . Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Neighborhood Pizzeria's Fresh Takes |
710 Peachtree Street Atlanta, GA 30308 United States +1 404 879 9962 http://www.baraondaatlanta.com |
This pizzeria and restaurant combines chic décor with old world charm and creative takes on Italian dishes. Pizzas, made in a wood-fired brick oven, feature thin crusts that hold an extensive list of possibilities. Red or pink tomato sauces, mozzarella, goat cheese, brie, sun dried tomatoes, and arugula, paired with prosciutto, chicken, sausage, or mushrooms make it hard to choose from over 20 artful combinations. Baraonda's ravioli of the day and pastas in delicate cream or red sauces will delight anyone who wants a full meal. Impeccably seasoned chicken, veal, fish, and lamb chops make great dinner choices, too. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The hip and happening pizza joint |
2359, Windy Hill Road Southeast Atlanta, GA 30067 United States +1 770 436 4446 http://www.bluemoonpizzaatl.com |
This eatery serves some of the most innovative and fresh pizzas in town. Blue Moon Pizza oozes vibrancy and makes a blatant claim of wanting to remain an illogical pizza joint. Go for the hand-tossed variety or the thin crust ones, they are all good, complete with large portions of fresh and generous toppings. The Greek pizza is quite a crowd-puller here and so are the house made desserts. The blue walls and serene blue lights infuse an enchanting glow. All of this with an open patio, live music, an upbeat bar(with a good stock of martinis) and televised sports. Pizza joints just got better! Review © 2007, Wcities |

Funky Pies |
Lenox Square 3393 Peachtree Road NE Atlanta, GA 30326-1162 United States +1 404 262 9221 http://www.cpk.com |
This restaurant is a great place to fuel up for a day at the sale racks, especially when you're looking for something more than a quick burger and fries. The restaurant occupies its own atrium balcony, where guests dine in bright sunshine let in from skylights high above; choose a booth along the right for optimal views of the shoppers below. Pastas, salads and other light fare complete the menu, but the headliners are the unusual pizzas. An Oriental chicken salad with fried noodles and Asian spice is also a popular choice.

New York Pizza Down South |
11875 Jones Bridge Road Atlanta, GA 30005 United States +1 678 624 0009 |
This traditional pizzeria is imbued with a New York theme, from the stylish booths and checkered tablecloths in the dining room to the overwhelming New York Yankees decor. Braves fans might not feel at home, but most guests rave about the lasagna, ravioli and hero sandwiches that make up the menu. Televisions and a nicely appointed bar round out the neighborhood feel, and the best seller is, of course, the pizza. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Whether you're looking for a solid meal or just a place to unwind and catch up on your favorite sports teams, Chicago's is the place to be. The dining room can accommodate parties of up to 14 diners at a table, or take a seat at the separate bar if you're in a hurry. Banquet facilities also available, but call in advance.

Who Wants Pizza? |
1040 North Highland Avenue (near Virginia Avenue) Atlanta, GA 30306-3551 United States +1 404 873 4545 http://www.everybodyspizza.com/ |
This old neighborhood place offers some of Atlanta's best pizza amid the busy shops and friendly taverns of the Highlands. From the storefront, the narrow bar cuts through this historic building, with exposed brick and ceiling fans lending an old-time feel. A few tables oppose the bar in front, and booths line the wall that leads to the porch in the back. Great pizzas, big salads, pastas and unique sandwiches are all available. The bar features 14 beers on tap and stays busy throughout the day. See website for menu, delivery, and Emory Village location. Review © 2007, Wcities |

University Pies and Fries |
1593 N. Decatur Road Atlanta, GA 30307 United States +1 404 377 7766 http://www.everybodyspizza.com... |
Right across from the beautiful Emory campus on Atlanta's east side, Everybody's serves up great food and cold brews to students, teachers, and townies alike. This is a college hangout, which means that occasionally there's more beer being served than pizza. Three levels divide the eating crowd, so some division of noise and atmosphere is attainable, even during the more raucous hours. Specialty pizzas are the best-sellers, with everything from chicken to artichokes available for your self-designed pie. The hot sandwiches and made-to-order salads are well prepared, affordable, and large. See website for delivery details, menu, and Virginia Highland location. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A surreal Atlanta tradition |
909 Ponce de Leon Ave Atlanta, GA 30306 United States +1 404 873 3088 |
This stark pastel building on Ponce stands out from its more timid neighbors, right on the border between Midtown and the Virginia-Highlands. Stucco and tile has replaced the traditional red-and-white tablecloths, to stunning effect. Ceiling fans spin over the brightly colored tiled dining room tables, while the patio is fitted with ornate, wrought iron chairs. The Vegetarian and meatball-laden specials are popular pizzas, while the calzones are a great choice for lunch. The White Pizza, with mozzarella and ricotta, is famous throughout Atlanta. Beer and wine is available. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Big Bites & Fun Times |
1279 Glenwood Avenue Atlanta, GA 30316 United States +1 404 523 8900 |
The neon sign on the corner announces Grant Central with all the subtlety of an old time theater marquee. Inside, you'll find East Atlanta's most complete pizzeria crowded most hours of the day. The enormous single room is open to the kitchen, with booths and tables against rustic exposed brick walls displaying eclectic art. Pizzas like the Cardiac Arrest (featuring pepperoni, spicy sausage, meatballs, ham, and extra cheese) made Grant Central famous, but the menu has expanded over the years. Subs, salads, and a few vegetarian items round out your selections. Review © 2007, Wcities |

New York Deep Dish Deep in Dixie |
4800 Lower Roswell Road Suite 155 Atlanta, GA 30068 United States +1 678 560 2228 http://www.johnnyspizza.com |
The best pizza comes from New York, even in the deep South. Transplants and visitors alike will thrill to the authentic taste of Johnny's New York-style pizza in near suburban Marietta. A loud, frantic ambiance provides further authenticity to the plastic tablecloths and the curt wait staff. New Yorkers might get a little homesick, but the pizza will make up for that. In addition to great pizzas, from traditional deep dish to creative specialty pies, Johnny's offers wings, great appetizers, and various Italian favorites. Beer and wine available. Free delivery.

Away from the Crowds |
903 Peachtree Street Atlanta, GA 30309 United States +1 404 876 7711 http://www.littleazio.com |
It's an Atlanta mystery that no one can quite figure out: Azio, a great little restaurant in a central location, never gets too crowded. This place is a good choice if you're looking for a bit of peace and quiet amidst an otherwise hectic day. Order up a tasty pizza with many interesting toppings and take it outside in nice weather. Watch the pies fly as the constant stream of to-go orders is filled. See website for menu and other locations. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Trendy Street Corner Slices |
422 Seminole Avenue Atlanta, GA 30307 United States +1 404 525 2530 |
This no-nonsense pizza shack is a favorite among area residents, always crowded without much of a wait and a great spot for satisfying your late-night cravings. The shop is tiny, with a few booths along the wall, but you'll want to take your pie outside to watch the local artists and punk-rockers go about their daily business as you dine. Pizza, calzones and salads are big winners here. The white pizza is very good and the vegetarian special is second-to-none. Several beers are available on tap or by the bottle.

Family Favorite |
3655 Roswell Road (Tuxedo Festival Shopping Center) Atlanta, GA 30328 United States +1 404 239 9733 |
This family-operated restaurant has been a longtime favorite in Atlanta, having fed its loyal customers for more than 16 years. The large dining room features large booths for parties of 10 or more, plus smaller tables for more intimate affairs. A quaint motorized train circles the restaurant overhead. Marcello's isn't strictly a pizzeria, although pizza may be what it does best. Its family recipes ensure a delicious meal at any time. Everything is served fresh and made from scratch, whether it's a pizza, pasta dish, sub sandwich, calzone or gyro. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Great for Relaxed Celebrations |
320 Peachtree Street Atlanta, GA 30308 United States +1 404 525 4400 http://www.maxlagers.com |
This expansive restaurant is perfect for big groups, and is placed right between downtown and Midtown. A large bar anchors one side of the main floor in this restored warehouse setting, while tables and booths are sectioned off into more intimate dining areas. A billiards room and a smaller bar are upstairs, and a large deck provides al fresco opportunities. Ribs, steaks, fish and pasta dishes are featured, as well as wood-fired pizza and some nice vegetarian dishes. Be sure to try one of Max's specialty beers, too, brewed on-site.

Pizza with Pizzazz |
1770 Peachtree Street Atlanta, GA 30309 United States +1 404 687 4766 http://www.mellowmushroom.com/ |
It all began in the early 1970s when three Atlanta University students made a plan to open a pizza business that offered nothing but the best and healthiest pizza in the world. Three delicious decades later, Mellow Mushroom is still going strong. The menu offers all varieties of pizzas for the health-conscious and everyone else. The atmosphere is a relaxing, fun one, where you can also order freshly-baked soft pretzels, salads, sandwiches and a variety of beers.

Shroom On In |
931 Monroe Drive Suite 104 Atlanta, GA 30308 United States +1 404 874 2291 http://www.mellowmushroom.com/ |
Perhaps the most popular location of the busy local hangout that is the Mellow Mushroom, this is a great place to meet friends for a great pie or a few beers. This corner storefront in the hectic Midtown Promenade offers a large patio for good views of the comings and goings along Monroe Drive. The interior is heavy on 70s decor, with funky memorabilia spread everywhere. The pizza is very good, but the calzones are famous. Fill them with your favorite pizza toppings or just get the cheese and go heavy on the sauce. Heart sandwiches and luscious salads round out the menu. See website for complete list of menu items, online games, online gift shop, and links to 45 other regional locations. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cool pool and hot pizza |
3055 Bolling Way Atlanta, GA 30305 United States +1 404 264 0135 |
Metropolitan Pizza is a smart bistro featuring nightly entertainment. The Italian food is authentic, ample and served into the early hours of the night. Try your hand at a game of pool while waiting for a specialty pizza or calzone, or sit for a drink at the bar and watch the livelier guests move on the small dance floor. Live bands are featured Thursdays through Saturdays, and highlight some of Atlanta's hottest young stars, while a disco DJ brings back the 70s and 80s on Wednesday nights. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A Picnic on Ponce |

For a quick bite as you make your way down Ponce, stop at this classic neighborhood pizza stand. Order at the long counter that fronts the kitchen, grab your drink and wait at a picnic table outside. The patio is shared with Gumbo A Go-Go next door and is set at a comfortable distance back from the traffic of Ponce. Pizzas and wings are the mainstays here, along with submarine sandwiches and a few other items. Save room for dessert, as Milano offers many varieties of Ben & Jerry's ice cream. No alcohol.

Family-Style Italian |
2615 George Busbee Parkway NW Atlanta, GA 30144 United States +1 770 423 0391 |
Lots of places promise home-style Italian, but if you want to feel like one of the family, My Cousin Vinny's is your best bet. While the dining room is great for families, adults will enjoy live music on the covered patio Fridays and Saturdays from 8pm to 2am. You must be 21 to enter the patio during these hours, as the mood can get a little rowdy. Pizza, cal zones, and some of the best spaghetti in town are consistent favorites, but if you want Vinny's best, opt for the lasagna. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The Pie's the Limit |
2810 Paces Ferry Road SE Atlanta, GA 30339 United States +1 770 434 9355 |
Pizza is not traditional Dixie fare, but these guys know what classic New York pizza is all about. In keeping with tradition, a very simple decor graces this almost fast-food pizza shop, where as many customers pick up as dine in, maybe more. Calzones, salads, pastas, and hot and cold subs are all on the menu. Oh, and pizza, with 23 available toppings. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Neighborhood Pizza Parlor |
1255 Grimes Bridge Road Atlanta, GA 30075 United States +1 770 587 1100 http://www.phillypizzapasta.co... |
This no-frills restaurant serves up some of the best pizza in the city. Red, white and green in true Italian tradition, the dining room is open to the kitchen so you can watch the pizzas being hand tossed. The specialty pizzas are authentic thin crust legends, and the toppings are always fresh. The white pizza, a sauce-less pie topped with ricotta cheese and veggies, is a favorite among locals. Large Greek salads, hot and cold sub sandwiches, and homemade soups are also on the menu. Review © 2007, Wcities |

All-American family pie |
1386 Roswell Road Atlanta, GA 30062 United States +1 770 509 5858 http://www.pizzahut.com |
Still the most famous and one of the most popular of American pizzerias, this longtime favorite has several Atlanta locations. While their pies have kept up with the times, Pizza Hut has maintained its standard family pizzeria look. Large and small tables are available in the dining room, and most locations still feature a juke box for fun family outings. New favorites like the Meat Lover's and Cheese Lover's are still a bit more expensive than the competition, but the eat-in atmosphere makes up for that. Beer only. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Geniune "New Yawk" pizza pies |
3354 Chamblee-Tucker Road Atlanta, GA 30341 United States +1 770 457 4466 |
When your order is up, you'll hear a different accent coming from the kitchen. This authentic New York pizzeria stays close to its roots, right down to the wait staff. The décor is rather institutional, with a cafeteria-style lineup on the left and a few booths to the right, but for takeout or a bite on the go, it's tough to beat this place. Pies are made the New York way, and well enough so to be known by many New York transplants as the place to get their hometown pizza fix. Review © 2007, Wcities |
