Great pizza. Always order ahead - www.anticopizzaavalon.com Extra paper serving plates and self service Parmesan cheese are pluses. read more

This is by far the best pizza I've had. Probably ever. The flavors are just perfect -- there's no need to add anything but if you want an additional little bit of cheese, garlic, or spices -- there's a nice little toppings bar with peppers, pepper paste, dried red peppers, Parmesan, and fresh minced garlic. It's delicious! The ambiance is nice - you can see the wood fired oven behind the counter. The servers are friendly and the food comes out fast. The crust has the perfect bounce and thickness. I'm in love! read more

This place never disappoints. The pizzas are the best in Atlanta. The location is quite upscale oriented, but the pricing is fair. Expect to wait for the order to arrive, this place is usually very packed. read more

Antico's is a great pizza place! It's always busy with customers, but the service is fast. Their pizzas are a bit expensive, but that's normal for brick oven pizzas. The crust and sauce are great, and there's a bar of free peppers, parmesan, garlic, etc. I would definitely recommend trying it at least once. There's free parking around Avalon. It is usually very busy so it is hard to find seating. read more

Antico IS the pizza spot to eat at while in Atlanta. I will dream about this pizza in years to come! The Sophia Pizza is the best pizza, please know if you try this dish it will change your life! The calzone was delicious, also. But that Sophia... yum! The restaurant was cafeteria style, with a condiment bar for added peppers, cheeses, etc., with a coffee shop attached. There is an array of Italian drinks as well as a water station if you want to keep it simple. This location was in a shopping district with a lot of amazing shops! Give it a try, you will be hooked! read more

From reading reviews I was excited to try this spot, but was immediately disappointed and underwhelmed because of the poor operations of the place. WE WAITED OVER 60 MINUTES while other parties who we didn't see in front of us grabbed their pizzas. The loud music and atmosphere made it impossible to hear people's names. While waiting for our pizza one of my party members went to ask when we should expect our order but they were treated with a rude and abrupt response. I decided to go up and chat with the staff and they said they LOST our order. They immediately got one of our pizzas but then we waited another 10-15 min for the final pizza. I've been to many pizza places that are as loud and busy as this one and they need to get a better system in place for people to know when their orders are ready. Instead of calling people's names out they should have a number screen available where people can see if their order is ready. That would help eliminate all the confusion with staff yelling out names that may or may not be mispronounced. We weren't the only party who experienced this wait too, I saw at least two other groups go and chat with the staff letting them know they were waiting and they were able to receive their orders because of that. Likely will not recommend this place to friends and family unless they get their systems improved. read more

Antico - San Gennaro pizza- slices missing because of the long wait we had to experience with our hungry party - Pizza Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

One of the best in town, and certainly my favorite. It's been forever since I went to the ITP location, but we finally went up to Avalon and I knew I had to try Antico again. Ordered the Bianca white pizza (to avoid the extra acid reflux from red sauce), and it tasted fantastic! Loved all the flavors, cheesiness, and just getting that quintessential Neapolitan style pizza. It is a massive whole pie, there's enough for 2 people to get 2 meals out of it. Yes, it is $22 per pizza, and yes, there's a bit of wait to get yours freshly made. But it's worth it. Can't wait to go back again and try another variety! read more

During Covid season, we decided to get some good a$$ pizza and Anticos never disappoints !! :) Restaurant is carry out only at this time. You can order at counter or call in. Every pizza is minimum $20 but crust is beautifully cooked, thin, toppings are above par and worth it! We love this pizza! Service is great and as most businesses, they weren't really busy so I was able to order inside and grab our two pizzas within a few minutes. read more

Best pizza in Atlanta. Your pizza is brought to you fresh from the stone oven with ingredients imported from Italy. If you are looking for quality pizza, this is the only place to go. Antico's brings old fashioned Southern Italian pizza making techniques to Atlanta - from hand kneaded dough to Italian D.O.P tomatoes. The warm Margherita D.O.P Rosso Pizza pizza has a thin chewy crust that is layered with pockets of mozzarella, tomato sauce, and your choice of topping - opt for the pepperoni. The Funghi (mushrooms) is also one of my favorites. But you must decide quickly because you only get 1 extra topping. Get additional fixins from the toppings bar. These include grated parmesan cheese, whole red peppers, fresh pressed garlic, and crushed red peppers in oil. If you sprinkle some of the last two on your pizza slice, your mouth will thank you. To get water, you have to pour yourself a cup from the dispenser on the left of the establishment. It is fully self serve and you will need some water because the pizza is so savory. This location in Avalon is always crowded but it is easy to get a pizza or two. Just walk in straight to the counter and place your order from the menu above the register. They also serve wine and a variety of drinks. In the refrigerator on the right, there are delicious desserts. These are excellent to bring home and a meal would not be complete without an Italian Tiramisu. The Tiramisu here is delicious, sweet, and delicate. Grab one on your way to the counter. read more

Delicious. That is the end of this review. Just kidding. But it pretty much sums it up. The restaurant is cute inside. Kind of reminds me of a high school lunch room. There are long tables and benches where you can sit. I think if it gets busy, you might need to share your table with somebody. I think these tables can sit maybe 6 to 7 people comfortably. Drink coolers are off to side, choose your drinks. They do offer a small selection of beer and wine. They haven't array of soft drinks and sparkling water. Now let's get to the meat and potatoes of this review. The pizza... amazing. We ordered the Margarita pizza with extra cheese. They were not skimpy on the cheese. Ingredients were fresh. The other highlight of this pizza... the crust. To die for!! Very chewy and soft, with the perfect amount of slight char on the bottom. YUM!! They have condiments on the side for those who need: parmesan, salt, pepper, oregano, hot pepper flakes, etc. You'll also see a prepackaged orange looking oil. Don't miss out, give it a try. It is hot chili oil and a fantastic addition to any pizza. I guess I can just end this review like I started it... delicious, all that needs to be said. Enjoy!! read more

When my wife told me that Antico was a good pizza spot in Atlanta, I wanted to try it out. I've had pizza in NY, good pizza in Knoxville (hard to believe, but it wasn't bad), and other places around the world. So Antico was put up to the test. We ordered the diavola pizza, and all I have to say on the size is that one pizza was more than enough. The pizza comes with peppers, spicy sopressata, and bufala. The spice level is pretty high for this pizza, so keep that in mind. What I did love about Antico was that they had unlimited garlic along with other sides where you can just refill. That was different compared to other pizza shops. The seating at this Antico is more family style, and basically wherever you can find a spot that's open it's free to sit at. I think it can foster some random conversations, but from what I saw it was basically just separated by where you sat at the table. Make sure to keep your ears open, because they'll yell out your order number and you have to just self identify yourself. I think this could be improved, maybe have a number display to show when the pizza is ready? I don't know, I guess they like yell the numbers out. Overall, this pizza is big. If you want a definite take out, order 2. If you just want one good extra meal after you should just order one. Antico's pizza is solid, I wouldn't say it was the best pizza that I've ever had. It was a little bit too saucy so most of the toppings sort of fell off. I'm sure this won't be the last time I eat Antico and will be on my revisiting list. read more

Antico - Diavola Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

I called in carry-out (1 pizza) a little before 7pm on a Thursday (busy but not slammed) and was told it'd be ready in 20 minutes. At 17 minutes, it was 'about to go in the oven'. After not hearing my name called, 35-40 minutes from placing the order, I asked about my pizza. 10 minutes later, they let me know that my pizza had been left boxed 'on the rack' and that no one called my name to say it was ready. 2-3 other customers were complaining about similar issues/extended waits . Presumably, they cooked me a fresh pizza and it tasted fine but it certainly wasn't worth waiting 1 hour and 15 minutes to pick up. The service at this location continues to slip. read more

The pizza is perfection! We consider ourselves margherita pizza aficionados and have only found pizza to suit our picky tastes in New York City (Emporio, Grimaldi's, Don Giovanni) ... until now! Who knew Alpharetta, Georgia had this gem of a pizza place tucked away in Avalon. The atmosphere is friendly, the staff efficient and, with just a few pizza items on the menu, the chef has truly perfected the pie!!! The crust is charred just enough and the self-serve condiment bar has olive oil for dipping the crusts. Nice touch! read more

Very good pizzas and they are huge. Crust is chewy and the ingredients are super fresh. You can watch your pizza being made and then placed into the brick oven. Quick service to place your order.

Wow.... if you're competing to find seating you know the place is poppin. Hands down the best pizza place I've been to. The open kitchen environment provides a unique dinning experience that is both fun and enjoyable especially for those who may not be from around here. We brought our three grandmas visiting from South Korea who are normally not pizza lovers. They were skeptical to try but after the first bite, no more convincing was necessary as they dove in for another piece. The San Gennnaro was perfectly simple yet flavorful while the Verdura was the perfect combo between white sauce and vegetables. SERVICE WAS THE BEST!!! The food may be good but if the service is not to par it can definitely disappoint the dining experience. The manager explained every type of pizza so we knew exactly what to order for the grandmas and he was very patient with us as we chose our drinks. When we told him our grandmas were visiting from out of town he thanked us for visiting antico's. He checked in with us when we were done to make sure our dinner was perfect. Looking for dessert after dinner? Just take a few steps next to the antico cafe and try their quality gelato, you will not be disappointed. So many flavors, all so creamy It's rare to find a place where food and service are both perfect but anticos does both. Will most definitely be back!! read more

I've eaten here one time before, but this is my first review. This is a little piece of heaven that makes me feel like I'm dining in Italy. The pizzas are completely unique. They serve their pizzas on a large metal sheet. They use just the right amount of sauce and cheese. The ingredients taste fresh and flavorful. If you save room after eating pizza, make sure and try their gelato for dessert. They have a number of traditional flavors with Italian names. I tried the salted caramel gelato, and it was amazing. I'll definitely be back the next time I visit The Avalon in Alpharetta. read more

The Pomodorini and Diavola Rosso are all-time favorites from here and I definitely recommend them if you can't decide. However, it does get busy and you will sometimes have to wait for something that is way too overhyped knowing that there are other Pizza places around Atlanta that are or could possibly be better. _________________________________________________________ PARKING | [The location is in the Avalon shopping area, left side of the theater. You have several parking decks around Avalon, so you will not have any trouble finding parking.] _________________________________________________________ EXTERIOR & INTERIOR | [Because Avalon seems to be a popular area to hang out at, you will have to look for the building because it's a small shop that doesn't have a big sign that points you in the right direction. When you walk inside, the building is pretty simple and more of a modern-day pizza shop that's catered to the more wealthy aesthetic, since Avalon is aimed at the more wealthy people in the Alpharetta and Atlanta area. Interior is basic as it can get.] _________________________________________________________ IS IT CLEAN? | [If you are planning to eat here, then do know that the majority of people will eat at the shop and a good amount of them don't really clean up after themselves, so don't expect staff to clean up after them while they are focused on getting your pizza because it does get packed in there.] _________________________________________________________ FOOD & DRINKS | [The drinks are just simple bottled/canned drinks that they have extra to sell, but if you don't want that, then they have free water to the side. Now, for the pizza. If I had to rate the pizza then it would be a 7/10 and the reason being is that people overhype something that seems to be extremely overpriced where it tastes like another average, soggy, thin pizza with little to no taste in the sauce. Yes, I did have two fan favorites, but it was the toppings that saved the pizza from its none, satisfying base. There are at times when the pizza is very oil drenched and it's not as satisfying. If I had to describe the pizza in modern-day language. it was MID. =I] _________________________________________________________ SERVICE ‍‍| [The service was mid because the majority of the staff is focused on getting your order. That's basically it. They get the job done and do an excellent job at doing so, but there really isn't much to say about them.] _________________________________________________________ OVERALL | [Overall, the place is mid in my opinion for something that is way overhyped by the public eye. Again, there are better or possibly better pizza places in the Atlanta area that people should discover than one in expensive districts tbh. Give recognition to the shops that should get the statues of Anticos.] read more

Antico is not bad... I think they just need to tweak a few things. As you come in there are very long tables with benches to sit family style... and little beyond that there is a front counter where you place your order and pay. Food then is delivered to your table. Pizza here has a good flavor but it could be a bit more crispy. Crust almost feels soggy, but toppings are fresh and pizzas are a good size. Prices are a bit on the high side for a pizza place where you stand at a counter and order fast food style. There are better places. read more

Drove up to Avalon from Buckhead today and decided to eat at Antico. We were all craving good pizza. We walked in and were a little confused about what to do: sit down, or order, then sit down, etc. The place was empty, yet two employees watched us turn in confused circles without asking us if they could help. They just sat and stared at us. We finally realized that we had to order at the counter. One of the employees, Tyler (whose name my sister took note of due to his very rude service), who had watched us without help as we walked in, walked behind the counter to take our order. He literally just stood there and stared at us. No "hello," or "how can I help?" Not even a "what can I get for you?" Just silent stares. We asked him if we could order and he grunted agreement. We ordered two of our three pizzas well done. I specifically said "super crispy, borderline burnt." Tyler finished taking our order with very little personality or welcome and we paid, then sat down after being asked to tip on the payment system. My sister said her finger hovered over the 0% for quite some time before she felt guilty and tipped anyway. For what we are not sure. Of course when our name was called our pizza was not well done. We decided not to complain to these people because it would have been a waste of time. Suffice it to say that I will not be back. read more

We've always loved Antico but believe it's a pizza best eaten in the restaurant so haven't been in the past 2 years - boo covid! We were up in Milton and decided to stop by Avalon and grab pizza on a Sunday evening around 6pm. Parking was easy in the garage and we quickly made our way over to Antico. While crowded inside, it seemed most people were waiting so we walked right up to order. We ordered a margherita, w capricciosa, a side salad, meatballs, and delicious Chianti. Lucky for us, a group vacated a table so we quickly found a spot to sit at a communal table. We loved the condiment bar, getting plenty of parm and peppers for our meal. We did wait a bit for pizza, long enough for my daughter to finish her milk and for us to finish our cups of wine. But the food was worth the wait! I started with the salad which was simple but so delicious. Fresh lettuce blend with perfectly shaved Parmesan strips and a fantastic homemade herb dressing. The small was plenty to split between two hungry adults. The meatballs came as an order of 2 and with a great side of Rosemary focaccia. My daughter loved the meatball and happily ate it alongside her slice of margherita. The Pizza was as yum as I remember - great crust, fantastic flavor, fresh toppings. It's easily my favorite pizza in Atlanta. I just wish I lived closer so I could patron Antico locations more often!!! read more

Antico - Pizza Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Good pizza. But the increasingly difficult seating situation makes me not want to go back. Place doesn't take reservations but they have an area called "reserved" that sits empty while people lord over you while you eat. Can we sit there - "no, it is reserved" was the reply. So instead we stand there with a tray of pizza in our hand waiting. Raining outside so you can't make use of the outside seating. I guess shame on us for coming when the weather is bad but to have 1/4 of the place reserved for no one seems a bit ridiculous. When you get up people are so desperate to get your seat that they practically slide under the small gap between your butt and the chair. If that's how you like to dine, go for it. The tables in the reserved section sat empty the entire time. read more

Pizza used to be great. I get the Sophia. Which is carmelixed onions, mushrooms, truffle oil. Maybe three or four onions hardly any mushrooms mostly dough. This place used to be the best . Not anymore . $27.00 for 16" of dough read more

Pricey but good... I brought some out of town relatives here to try out some foo foo pizza....I'm more of a traditional cheese and pepperoni type...but I keep an open mind and be willing to try out new stuff... The place has a farmer's market feel to it with picnic tables and open floor plan. The folks here are friendlier than many of the other vendors in the Avalon. We ended up getting the Sophia which consists of Bufala, cipollini onion, roasted mushrooms and white truffle oil for $27.00. I wasn't sure about getting pizza with no sauce on it but to my surprise it was pretty darn good. I wouldn't mind coming back again and trying one of their other pizzas... like the Margherita D.O.P. with San Marzano tomato, bufala, basil and garlic.... 1513rd review 9/1/2018 433rd for 2018 read more

Great pizza place in Avalon. Probably best quality pizza you can find in the area? Got the Margherita pizza with mushrooms. They burnt it a bit, but it was still delicious. Usually can't have more than 2 slices of pizza, but ate half of the whole pie. You order at the counter then find a seat, and a staff will bring you the pizza and clean it up afterwards. They should think of a better system of bringing the pizza to the customers though; yelling out the order numbers isn't really efficient nor pleasing for the customers. read more

Finally we found a great spot to eat pizza! We've been living in Atlanta for a year now, and we have tried a few pizza places, but they were ok, nothing great. A coworker recommended me this place, so we decided to go during the weekend. First of all, it is located in an very beautiful open mall called Avalon in Alpharetta. They had a few pizza options, but we went for the Capricciosa, since we love artichokes and prosciutto. The pizza had a great flavor from the wood fire oven, and the dough was thin and crusty. The only thing is that it's in the pricey side; $30 for the pizza and two peronis, but it kinda makes sense considering it's located in a fancy area. If you're in the area, give it a try, you won't regret it! read more

I've been here and the West Midtown location a couple times, and we usually get the Margarita pizza. This time we added in pepperoni, which was soooo good. The flavor of the pizza and the chewiness and char of the crust is amazing, but I always find the texture of the pizza to be so soggy. It falls apart while you eat it. I feel like you can get better pizza for the price around the area. I'd recommend coming here if you have a pizza craving in the Avalon and don't feel like leaving the area. It's good, but not that special. read more
