Antico Pizza Napoletana

Authentic oven pizza, thinner crust but not brittle or crisp. Good choices for beverages and hard to find Peroni. The pizzas on the menu are very flavorful and thought out. Highly recommend eating in and bringing a party of 4. Seating is a little limited so best to split up and while someone orders someone else looks for a table.

Georgia’s BEST pizza in my opinion. This place has been on my radar for years, ever since I saw it on TV I’ve had it on my list. Through chance and tough change we now live in Georgia so you know we had to stop in. This style of pizza is my favorite (although I love them all) so to say I agree with those who rate this as Georgia’s #1 pizza would be an understatement. We definitely didn’t need two pizzas, one is enough to feed 4 people so we have lots of leftovers 🙂. I got the margherita and my wife got the San Gennaro and to they were out of this world delicious. The margherita is classic Buffalo mozzarella with basil and olive oil, the Gennaro is Buffalo mozz, sweet peppers, sausage and caramelized onions and mmm mmm delicious. This place also has an Italian coffee and desert shop right next door and don’t even get me started on the freshly filled cannoli’s made to order, O…M…G 🤤. If I ever ran in to a genie, one of my wishes would for this place to be closer to me, although it may not be a good thing for my waistline. Sorry the pictures aren’t great, I couldn’t wait to dive in.

We love it. They have many vegetarian option. Food quality is quite good. Avalon is a place where you can go any time. They have inside and outside sitting arrangements so whatever is your choice. They back pizza in wooden oven so its like you will feel freshness. I love calabrian pepper. They provide garlic, crushed pepper, whole pepper, chilli oil and parmigiano as complementary. Pizza size is quite enough for 2 adult. For reference pizza pic attached its margherita d.o.p without any additional toppings.

I wish I could give it a 4.5, but I’m assigning it a 4 for the following reasons. First of all, great location. It is right next to a parking garage at Avalon. Very convenient and beautiful indoor and outdoor seating. Secondarily, portion sizes are great. The pizza is very large and should definitely be split by two adults. Third, The place has a fun ambience. It is casual yet could be a nice gathering with friends. It would be an upscale pizza shop. The fourth is that the pizza was good, but it wasn’t great. I ordered the lasagna pizza and it actually was a little bland. It was sad to be the most meat filled but as the pictures suggest, it was moderately meat filled. The seasoning wasn’t amazing. Finally, it was costly. A pizza was $22 plus a drink. And my world, a $22 pizza is not a single serving, but is split between two people. If you’re doing that, then it’s normal cost. If you’re by yourself, it is a little pricey. Overall, it is a great spot and I would definitely come back.

Some times pizza places in Atlanta try to be too much with flavors but can’t perfect the simple stuff. Not here, great cook on the pizza! The perfect Margherita flavor that captures the tomato, basil and mozzarella! We appreciated the quick service, rather than that false advertisement about a 1 minute pizza that some how takes an hour to get. The gelatos were also delicious!
