With his underground pizza parties reaching cult status, obsessed NY pizza blogger Jeff Varasano opened his restaurant with crazy hype swirling around it. NYC quality? Better than Fritti? Does he import the water? Once you get past the dramatics (and the corporate feel to the place) the pizzas are wonderfully unique, landing somewhere in between a NYC street slice and a Naples-style pie. Gourmet variations topped with arugula and capocollo instantly impress, but the Nana’s house special is damn close to pizza perfection. Folding your slice, heavily-herbed tomato sauce and blobs of mozzarella…

All I can say is WOW

by cmcolomb

Varasano's Pizza is, hands down, the best pizza I have ever eaten. The crust is amazing, because Jeff has perfected his own yeast formula which makes for a perfectly cooked, scrumptiously charred, pizza. My favorite is the Nana's by far because of the exquisite blend of spices used in the pizza sauce itself. And I can never get tired of the Nana's cuz I can add pepperoni or their really good sausage... Next, my favorite would have to be the Salumi which is their meats pizza. They use the highest grade cuts of salumi and the pizza is just to die for. And if you are looking for something lighter, try the Carmelized Onion -- mmmm especially with sausage; or try the Chica Bella!

  • Pros: Best thin crust, best pizza dough, best atmosphere! Amazing!
  • Cons: Small place, cramped bar area

Try the caramelized onion

by EatinE

The caramelized onion pizza is hands down my favorite pizza in Atlanta. It's not your typical pizza - it's a white pie with emmanthaler cheese, caramelized onions, and fresh thyme. The freshness of the herbs make a big difference in the overall presentation and taste/aroma of the pizza. I've also had the Nana's (with fresh oregano on it) and the Margherita (with fresh basil). Freshness is a key word here, because that's what everything is. From the sauce to the cheese to the herbs, everything tastes really carefully selected and prepared. Ignore all the hype about this restaurant - just go and experience it with an open mind. Whether you think it's the *best pizza ever* or not, for the quality you get and the reasonable prices, it's pretty hard to beat it.

  • Pros: Knowledgeable staff, open 7 days, lunch, late nights
  • Cons: No draft beers
