Amazing pizza
by Matt D
Amazing hidden away word of mouth treasure. Sit in the kitchen area and enjoy the entire experience. Andre Bocelli, people, food. Fantastic pizza. Don't hesitate. I will take all of my friends.
by Ken Gross
Really good pizza! They only sell big pizzas so if you are planning to go alone be prepared to take a big quantity back home
by Paolo B.
Ok. Legit. One of the best pizzas you can ever eat. Props Georgia.
by lino b.
Best pizza in Atlanta! Expect to wait but it's worth it! Everything on the menu is king. Peppers are very hot!
by Camden A
Best pizza in Georgia! Their brick oven pizzas have the perfect flavor. Compared to NYC they are on target for what pizza lovers are expecting. Fun atmosphere and BYOB is a plus.
by Steve J
Always good. Don't love how they didn't comply with labor laws.
by Tricia B.
One of the best coal-fired pizzas I've ever had. You MUST try the diavola - just enough heat to to give it the perfect kick!
by Djaniella D.
this pizzeria is amazing you can watch them make the pizza
by Kris W.
Might be the best pizza I've ever had.

The only other place I've had pizza like this before was Florence, Italy. This shit is good.

Margarita pizza, or really anything. Best pizza I've ever had. Only restaurant I say is the best in any category in the world.
by Zach M
I love margarita pizzas.
by John M
Pizza!! Of course.

This authentic pizzeria is a staple on the Instagram feed. You can’t go wrong with a classic Margherita – you’re definitely guaranteed to rack up at least 100 likes.

Authentic pizza!! Go with a large group so you can try different types
by Allison K.
"Their traditional Neapolitan pizza is hard to beat, but the Diavola is the cream of the crop with its spicy soppressata and peppers." Chef Whitney Otawka
by Chefs Feed
"The flour is imported from Italy, the tomatoes are vine-ripened, and the owner does not allow substitutions, which keeps the integrity of his original pies." Chef Cyrille Holota
by Chefs Feed
Everything!
by Mauricio J
Pizza is so good! Great authentic topping combinations.
by Jack Scotty
Why the Pizza of course!
by James M
Best pizza in ATL

Best pizza in Atlanta (in my opinion)
by Louis S
Pretty damn good authentic Italian pizza.
by Norrin R.
The ambiance. The pizza is almost always burned; however, the scene is great.
by Monica Zarate
This place is a great spot to get a bottle of wine and some pizza with friends. Don't forget the gelato next door!
by Paul J
Try the Diavola And Lasagna Pizza - Our favorites (via @Foodspotting)

by Jovan A
They make the pizza fresh right there in the open air room...just the way they do in Italy
by Justin E.
The pizza and the people are both good.

One of the most fantastic pizza experiences ever. Open space, open kitchen, BYOB, Italian music blasting, and 3 gorgeous wood-fired ovens. And the pizza, oh the pizza. Eat everything.
by Amanda N.
Awesome pizza! I love that it's byob! Great place for a group of friends!
by Elle M.

Overrated pizza.
by John Liotta
Margherita... Next time trying sausage
by Lutrell C
Best pizza I've ever had.
by Josh T.
The pizza here is absolutely amazing. The owner came straight from Italy so he knows what he's doing in the kitchen. Takes about 2 minutes to receive your pizza!
by Nicholas P
Best pizza in ATL.
by Rane M.
Legit Neapolitan pizza. Fun atmosphere sitting inside the kitchen.
by Chris W.
Hugh Acheson, chef of 5&10, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Diavola pizza.
by Chefs Feed
Try the San Gennaro, and you'll understand why. The pizza's rippling, chewy edges give way to a thinner center generously strewn with primo ingredients.
by Epicurious
Best pizza I have had in a long time. And you can bring your own alcohol... Awesome place!
by Ricky
This pizza... THE BEST. Oh my God, seriously, sooooooo good.
by Stephanie H.
Best Pizza bianca I've ever had

by Paul d.
Bianco Pizza -- so good
by Ira Brian Miller
Holy shit. So good.
by Ira Brian Miller
Don't bother paying extra for Calabrian peppers. There's a container full of them in the back, along with fresh garlic and the usual crushed pepper options.
by Garett P.
Best pizza in Atlanta.
by Kimberly T
If you're looking for the canoles, they moved next door to Caffe Gio.
by David Z.
Best in the ATL!
by Barry H.
Margherita pizza is the best
by Donna P.
This place is so good. Don't be scared by the line it moves fast. they have beer and wine but you can bring your own.
by William W.
If there is a line, wait. Turn over is fast. To my fellow Italians, this place has amazing old world style pizza, it's amazing. You definitely want to eat here.
by Tina L.
Diavola pizza is the best!
by Briana B.
The friendly factor has been near zero on the last few visits.
by Mark L.
Best. Pizza. Period
by Steele
this place is amazing!!!!! fresh authentic Italian ingredients!!! have a great dinner in the kitchen and the best part is you can bring your own wine!!!!
by ABellisimaVita
Bring Your Own Beverage and enjoy a seat in the back, in view of the Ovens!
by Connect Global
BEST Pizza! Get there early, you don't want to show up after they've run out of dough!
by Connect Global
Margherita pizza was great. Wished I had read the reviews about BYOB before we went. Will be back...with my own beverage!
by Tanisha B.
Go for water or BYOB. $6 for a soda. Calzone is amazing!
by Jen M.
I was here Friday and I'm back today (monday) that's how good it is!!!
by Alee G.
Fast service, great food and cute patrons/eyecandy. Family style dining so be prepared to wait for a table on busy nights.
by Derrick R.
You have died and gone to pizza heaven when eating here. Three wood-fired ovens cook pizzas to perfection in minutes while opera music blares. This is the best pizza place I have ever been to anywhere
by Burt H.
Great pizza but I feel like eating it in a prison cafeteria on family visitation day
by Kelly R.
Outstanding pizza. On my "top ten" spots.
by Leibert M.
Try the Capricciosa Pizza - (via @Foodspotting)

The best pizza...omg!!!! I dream about this pizza!!!
by Donna S.
Get dipping sauce for your crust! I think it's in the back somewhere
by Kimberly D.
The BEST pizza since Napoli, Italy!
by Truly F.
Awesome Pizza ! Cool Atmosphere ! You literally eat in the kitchen.
by Eric G.
Antico pizza is never a bad idea
by Margaret F.
Not sure what the fuzz is for
by M I.
As a native New Yorker I'd give this place -5 stars. No seating, no fountain drinks and inside is total chaos. They don't even do slices! Pizza is terrible! Totino 's frozen is better!!!!
by Nick R.
The pizza is delish, the employees are rude. So rude. God forbid you have a question when you're making your order. Especially Nardos (cashier) - she's got a huge chip on her shoulder!
by Michael H.
Best pizza I have had down south.
by Michelle
No doubt best pizza I've had. But a tip for vegetarians who request change of gloves at Subway - Here, same hands make a meat pizza without gloves. If you r very strict then this might turn you off :(
by Jinal P.
Very low key ! I love it is fast , and super fresh . The pizza is great you can choose the fresh basil and olive oil from the counter ... Very simple but fresh !!
by Noemi R.
Get the San Gennaro
by Rob P.
If you really want to try it, get there early. I felt it was a little over-rated.
by Amanda
Fresh ingredients
by Sean A.
An Atlanta must do/eat
by Lisa H.
Even Hungry Restaurant Baby agrees this the the best pizza ever!
by Andrew S.
Looks good! Smells good!!
by Mire S.
We'd sell our souls for the Diavola pizza, made with fresh Mozzarella di Bufala, spicy sopressata, and pepperonata and the San Gennaro which features fresh mozzarella, broccoli rabe, and salsiccia.
by Atlanta Eats TV
mi piace un sacco!!!
by kay v.
The best pizza in Atlanta BY FAR! Perfect for an informal date or one where you wish to be more chill.
by Chad K.
Finding eating can be difficult when it's busy. You have to find your own seat and there are only like 3 long tables tucked away in the kitchen.
by Brad K.
best pizza in the world, bar naples itself.
by suyog m.
Best pizza in ATL period.
by Paul V.
Great pizza, probably can't go wrong with any, Looks like you can bring your own wine to cork.
by Steve H.
Full de genteeee pero vale la penaaa deliciosaaaa
by Nina P.
Go when opens at 11:30 am or noon (Saturdsays). Places closes when dough runs out. There was a line of about 40 people today (Saturday) awaiting opening. The owner, Giovanni, gave out small slices.
by Linda M.
Best tasting pizza so far..
by Deon P.
Best pizza in Atlanta. End of discussion!
by Ben P.
You can bring beer as well as wine. First come, first serve on tables so come early.
by Kevin C.
Authentic Neopolitan Pizza. Excellent. And not to be missed.
by Fred R.
Antico's San Gennaro pizza is tough to beat. Chunks of fennel-laced sausage mixed with mozzarella and peppers take this pie from good to great, securing a place on CL's list of 100 best dishes.
by Creative Loafing Atlanta
The margherita pizza is amazing. So is the Diavaola! Spicy but awesome! U cant go wrong here.
by Jamar L.
Best pizza in Atlanta. Not even close. Can't think of a better place anywhere, actually.
by Andrew S.
Try the Pistachio & Tiramisu - (via @Foodspotting)
by iEatsBy J.
Try the Pomodorini & Diavaola - (via @Foodspotting)
by iEatsBy J.
BYOB makes this place even more fantastic. Order a pizza and grab a seat quick!
by Heather V.
My favorite meal in atl!
by Susan H.
just had the best thin crust pizza! get the san gennaro for the delectable swt red peppers. eating to the crust leaves u wanting more!! if this is ur 1st time, it will be the 1st of many more to come!
by Virginie L.
Antico remains the one to beat. If you like your pizza with a little kick, don't miss the Diavola topped with spicy sopressata and peppers.
by AJC
Note: Pizza
by Jason F.
The cashier was rude but pizza was worth it. Hope you have a better day hun. :)
by Rebecca S.
Excellent cannelloni tradizionale, too. Reasonable prices.
by Linda M.
Love this place! Bring a bottle of wine, and enjoy this yummy goodness.
by Cantey H.
One of the best pizzas in the city!
by ATL Bite Life
Be prepared for a crowd, its incredibly popular (but worth it).
by The Trot Line
This is the real stuff, only for lovers of authentic, neapolitan pizza! It's kind of a really loud atmosphere so don't be surprised
by Tim H.
Don't worry if there is a huge line and nowhere to sit. It goes fast and the pizza was delivered as our butts hit the seats. And it was delish!!! The desserts look amazing too!
by Monica R.
Bring your own wine. Try Lasagna pizza.
by Christy H.
Try the Daviola - My favorite pizza here! (via @Foodspotting)
by iEatsBy J.
First impression - PASS! I might feel differently if the women at the front counter weren't so rude and scowling. The pizza is lackluster at best. Very disappointing experience!!!
by Tony A.
Try the Pomodorini - I love this place! (via @Foodspotting)
by iEatsBy J.
Best pizza in Atlanta! Authentic Italian Pizza Napoletana as originally made in Naples. Be patient - it gets packed but it's worth the wait. And don't forget to pick up a cannoli for dessert!
by Eidé
Try the Pizza Margarita (via @Foodspotting)
by Social E.
Order 1, if u are reeeeeally hungry...they are big and dont seem like it.
by Jesus R.
The best pizza in town. Straight out of the brick oven. Hot & fresh cut vegetables and meat items with home sauces. Home made connli's too.
by Guri D.
Believe the hype.
by Andrew P.
Bring you own wine and make friends at the community tables.
by Jack S.
Pizza is awesome but I guess they're not making enough money for air conditioning.
by Krista A.
Cook acayip. Calisanlar, ortam ve yemekler. Ugrayin.

Stop blocking the drive ways on Ethel Street. We tow
by Denny B.
Thin, tasty crust, fresh ingredients--everything you want in an incredible slice. #heart! Downside: limited seating makes people sweat you while you eat. Don't be intimidated; enjoy your food!
by Denene
The margherita Pizza is the BEST!!! ... The best Pizza ever!!
by Jennifer L.
The pizza is amazing! The Margarita is my favorite. It's got a great balance of flavors with a slightly charred, chewy crust.
by Steven B.
It was absolutely amazing! The pizza was the best I've ever had, the atmosphere was unique and the cannoli were delicious...and I don't really like cannoli! I highly recommend the lasagna pizza.
by Rachel C.
Try the Margherita Pizza - #authentic (via @Foodspotting)
by Sarah H.
Love! Amazing pizza and atmosphere! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu)
by Maansi S.
Try the San Gennaro or Lasagna pizza!

Try the pizza napoletana - Diavolo (via @Foodspotting)
by Social E.
Best pizza I've ever had anywhere...diavola
by John
BYOB BYOWCan't be beat :)
by Wayne H.
Do not block the driveways of the people on Ethel Street. You will be towed.
by Denny B.
The San Gennaro is hands down my favorite. All though many may claim the Diavola as a close second ;). BYOB and don't forget to offer Giuseppe a glass of wine when you see him!
by Stephanie
Almost beats Totinos!
by D. Scott K.
Beer & wine now for sale & you can still BYOB. Best of both worlds.
by Phred H.
The owner supports the community and is cute!
by Tanya W.
Chocolate canoli.
by Rachel H.
This is some of the best pizza I've ever had. Get the oil and red pepper for your pizza. Cannoli's are superlative as well.
by Withoutink
Add the fresh gratered parmesean for a delicious taste
by Marsha M.
Don't forget the red peppers and garlic up front.
by Vishi G.
Don't forget the red pepoers &garlic
by Vishi G.
When it comes to pizza, pile on the nutrients and eat in moderation. From the calcium in cheese to a variety of antioxidants in tomato sauce, pizza offers nutritious benefits.
by Sharecare
Beware of the crowds. The pizza is fantastic, but the experience is less than comfortable.
by Spencer L.
Giggioto calzone :As your teeth break through the slightly charred, tangy, bready crust, the rich combination of creamy ricotta and mozzarella oozes into your mouth.
by Creative Loafing Atlanta
Try the veggie pizza!!
by iFitness.com
Try at least EACH cannoli!
by TheFastFoodDude
Good pizza, good enviroment. Cashier socks!!
by Angela Ma. A.
Pizza is good. Front counter service is rude. Rude. Rude. Not worth the trip. Fritti is just fine for me.
by Cristy L.
Bring your own wine. And bring a book. The wait is craaaaaaazy. 60 min door to pizza is pretty normal
by Girish J.
BYOB... Get there Early!!
by Del P.
Standing room only!
by Mike F
visiting the ATL...you gotta stop here....amazing!
by tom r.
National recognition and a cult following have only fed their progress; plans for expansion are blazing away like the imported Acunto ovens that feed the masses. [Eater 38 Member]
by Eater
Best pizza in atlanta maybe anywhere
by Devon @
pasta, pizza & noodles - giggioto calzone
by John L.
You simply can't go wrong with their wood fired pizza, its a BYO wine also without an opening charge. Fun atmosphere, great for groups but it can get loud so don't expect a quiet evening
by edward a.
Been all over Italy - this is as close as it gets
by The Trot Line
Sit in the back, it's an Italian party every night!
by Wendy R.
Best pizza in Atlanta. You're fooling yourself if you think anything is better.
by Patrick L.
be prepared to throw them bows
by ___mary A
The best pizza in town is BYOB - Grab a growler of beer at Hop City or a bottle of wine from Perrine's - both nearby
by Savory Exposure
Pizza here is amazing - BYOB
by Melissa K.
Not what it used to be
by Tom B.
Best pizza in ATL! Try the white pie.
by Carlos E.
Lovely convivial atmosphere but the pizza (and cannoli's!) are devour-worthy. BYOB--amazing. Get anything. Make sure to say hello and thank you to the chefs before you leave it's well deserved!
by Kiersten F.
Definitely not worth it $20. Pizza falls apart, toppoings just junked together, and nasty burnt crust. Get some Lil Cedars and save $15.
by Trevor C
Thanks Antico for making it impossible to get out of my driveway. This place doesn't care about the community that it is in. If you go here, remember you are parking in our neighborhood. Be respectful
by Zac H.
The Diavola pizza was amazing!
by Brett P
FYI-soda is $2.50 for a 9 oz. Coke
by Felix C.
Bring your own vino or get lucky and sit next to someone who will share!
by Amy R.
The Diavola is spicy, but the best pizza in Atlanta, IMHO.
by Halbo
Margherita or San Gennaro. Case closed
by Ryan F.
CL Best of Atlanta 2010 winner: Best new restaurant and best pizza. You''ll love their pizzas that arrive with their hot, crusty, thin, perfectly balanced crusts, and their tangy, sweet tomato sauce
by Creative Loafing Atlanta
The pizza is amazing and it's byob- can"t go wrong! Just don't expect to find a seat.
by Kate
Absolutely amazing pizza. The environment in the building is one of the most unique I've seen! Bring a bottle of wine, bring some friends, and have an amazing meal/time!
by Robert G
WOW, the end.
by Jordan D.
Best pizza I've ever had. Totally different from every other place. Albeit expensive, it's worth it.
by Matt S.
As an Italian in Atlanta I must say that this place is 100% authentic. Every ingredient is one you'd actually find in Italy and the fact that They have a real wood burning oven is amazing. If you love
by emanuele c.
ENJOY and meet the owner and his brother. This place is AWESOME, especially with free espresso by request.
by Veronica K.
Best Pizza in Metro Atlanta! Bring your favorite adult beverage and enjoy the best pizza south of the Mason- Dixon Line
by Oscar C.
Okay, simply the best pizza experience in Atlanta. Not my local spot, but totally excursion-worthy. The kids were in awe.
by Laurel u
Best pizza experience in Atlanta. Go to share, it's perfect for a group.
by Jan S.
This may be the only restaurant in Atlanta where you simply cannot skip dessert. The Cannoli is epic.
by Tom B.
As a self proclaimed pizza snob, THIS IS SOME GREAT PIZZA! And if you can get a seat in the kitchen, just do it!
by Kamisha M.
Bring your favorite people or your family; The best place to share supper in Atlanta! Best cannaloni in Atlanta **ever**!!
by Jon D
Don't forget to BYOB and try to snag a table in the kitchen - so entertaining!
by Lil G.
Amazing and authentic pizza place in Atlanta! Love the open family enviroment and the open kitchen to share with the chefs! Make sure you get the canolis!
by Hayley B.
You can bring your own alcohol, but don't expect to have a lot of time to drink it. I just got back from Naples and this is the real deal. Yeah Atlanta!
by Elizabeth T
Love love this place. You need to eat there or live close, best when HOT!
by susan M
Seating in the kitchen is the best, as you can watch the activity around the ovens and check out the rising dough, palettes of flour, and industrial mixers. Don't miss the filled-to-order cannoli.
by Jason B.
Yummy, pizza that tastes just like Naples... (but without the smell of Naples.) Be patient with the ordering, seating etc. This is not a place to go if you're in a hurry!
by Allison E
The diavolo pizza is ome of the best I have ever had. Don't forget to get the canolis too
by Akshay P.
eat a few slices at the table. da bomb!
by Matt K.
This is tremendous pizza, and having never been to Naples for real pizza, this is supposed to be tremendously authentic. Don't expect to go to lunch except Saturdays, only open after 4.
