Best pizza. Really that's all that needs to be written. If you want the greatest piece of pie anywhere. This. Is. It. Be ready with what you want in line. The length of the line might be intimidating, but don't worry, they'll take your order near the door and by the time you reach the front of the line your slices'll be ready. Did I mention they are the best? read more

Arrived today September 8th 2026 at 2.26 pm..purchased 2 slices of pizza ..1 pepperoni..sausage....and a lasagna dish.,due to they were sold out of the spaghetti and meatballs dish. The wait was about 10 minutes....1st, the pizza slices were very small, not like the size they were selling in 2020 my last visit to this restaurant..2nd..the pizza was a bit greasy..not much tomato sauce could be tasted on these thin sliced pizzas....3rd the lasagna was just ok..it did have plenty of meat, but was very salty and bland not flavor or spices 4th they didn't have any salad so they substituted a additional piece of bread..no butter, or garlic....many of my friends warned me that the service and quality of the food has declined over the years..so I knew what to expect....my total with a root beer soda was..$20.18....5th..cleanliness..hmm..this restaurant is not very clean, dirty floors,dirty tables..it is frequently visited by a lot of college students....the counter tops were you stand to place your food order,is filthy..none of the employees are wearing gloves ,or hair nets.. Definitely will not be returning anytime soon.. read more

First time trying Rosa's Pizza downtown. The customer service was great. The guys working there were friendly, welcoming, and made me feel appreciated as a first-time customer. I ordered one slice with pepperoni, onions, and garlic. The pizza was flavorful, and the price was very reasonable. The only downside was the cleanliness. The station with the red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese was noticeably dirty. The dining area is very small and could use a thorough cleaning. Overall, solid spot for what it is. read more

2.5 stars for today's visit, 4 for catering. Full disclosure - I prefer square, thick-crust Detroit style pizza. NY style for you newbies is hand-tossed, thin-crust with shredded mozzarella and a light layer of tomato sauce, usually sold by the slice. Rosa's has been an ATL staple since 1990. Parking? Fuhgetaboutit! Pay and park a few blocks away or walk if you're in the area. It's close to 5 Points station. The interior is tiny and humid with about three small tables so most get it to go. Walls are lined with "authentically signed" pics of the Sopranos and Scarface. I was impressed when the office had the pizza catered. Just enough cheese, crust and pepperoni to satisfy a cheat day. It's pre-cooked, topped and heated when you order, ideal for fast food. Salad is pretty good too. Friendly staff and decent prices considering the area. $2.80 for a cheese slice, $1+ extra per topping. Today's 2 sausage slices were disappointingly lackluster. Crust was thinner than usual and it was bland. And I wasn't full after but my appetite is a bit extra. We'll likely have it catered again but I'll stick to pepperoni. Enjoy! read more

I have taken a long time to write this review. I was waiting to see if the owner would respond to the ones preceding this one and make the necessary changes. I am still waiting. The place is really unkempt and the staff is careless and very unsanitary. OSHA, if they visited, would give this an unsatisfactory rating. Students and workers in the area deserve much better. Product without service is a lousy, and it this case, DIRTY product. DO better! read more

Fast and friendly service. Can get a little crazy around lunch, but they handle it pretty well. Slices are a tad greasy, but the veggie toppings are very good and moment fresh than I expected. read more

Nice pizza and friendly service. The dough had a good texture, and the flavors worked well together. The only small disappointment was that it wasn't quite as full as I expected. read more

Surprisingly good pizza for being a random place I walked into on a weekday. The pizza was fresh (very hot), and made to my order. I got the 2 slice + drink deal which was not a terrible value. They did give me a bottled drink instead of a fountain drink which is where the "weird" of this place starts... They recently scored a 70 on their health inspection which didn't discourage me, however, some things were definitely noticeable. In the back dining room, there was lots of junk piled up in a corner (old shoes, boxes, etc). The drink fountain did not work, and all the piping was torn up and scattered everywhere. There were flies in the restaurant as well. I'm not really one to complain about atmosphere, especially considering this is a hole in the wall, so my 4 stars go to the taste of the pizza. read more

Solid and affordable NY style pizza spot in downtown! Walked to here from Centennial Park and enjoyed the quick bite. There's not much seating inside, so most people were taking it to-go. Pizza comes out HOT - wished the crust was a little firmer, especially towards the tip of the pizza because it was quite flimsy, but definitely hits the spot. They have other things besides pizza, like calzones and lasagna. read more

The pizza had good flavor and showed a lot of potential, but the overall experience didn't quite come together. It arrived less warm than expected, which took away from the texture and made it harder to fully enjoy. Service also felt slower than anticipated, and the wait made the meal a little disappointing. While there were a few things I liked, the visit never really lived up to my expectations. With better timing and more consistency, I think this could be a much better place to visit. For now, it was an average experience that left me hoping for noticeable improvements before I decide to come back. read more

It's a classic hole-in-the-wall spot and the cheese slice tasted decent with a good amount of sauce. However, the cust on the bottom was way too overdone and burnt, making it pretty tough to chew. read more

Overall, a very decent pizza. The sauce and dough were tasty, and the ingredients seemed fresh. It would be perfect with slightly more toppings. read more

Legit, substantial slices of pizza, covered in respectable amounts of pepperoni. Kind of a local hole in the wall joint, just a few seats, seemed like a lot of to-go-- but service is just fast enough to be considered quick. If you are expecting the best in New York quality, maybe this isn't it, but for a local place, this is damned good. read more

This is exactly what a pizza shop should be. It's busy, loud, and smells amazing. I grabbed a Cheese Pizza slice and it was perfect -- crispy crust, great sauce, and just the right amount of cheese. read more

The pizza was flavorful and enjoyable. It would have been perfect if it had been served hot. Overall, a pleasant visit

Overall I would rate this place 2/10. I placed an order online, it said it will be ready 20 minutes later. So I arrived 20 minutes later and ended up waiting an additional 20 minutes for my food. All I ordered was spaghetti and a drink!Over 20 customers came in and got their food before I was even acknowledged. As I finally get to eat my food it tastes like nothing.. literally nothing!! The noodles, the sauce, the meatballs, and the bread had no flavor. Honestly the only good thing about this was the drink. The side salad was a few pieces of lettuce with one single cucumber and tomato on top.. I get you guys are very busy and have a lot going on but this is just crazy. I hope you guys can improve. read more

Do not eat here. The pizza looks good and the place is busy, but there are roaches everywhere. I made the mistake of ordering food, saw one roach, then a 2nd, and yes there were more. The manager did give me my money back and honestly the entire strip may have a cockroach infestation. read more

One of things about me is I love promoting a mom/pop business. I've heard all good things about Rosa's Pizza including their signature New York style pizza. Rosa's pizza slice is very large & filling. Since I was pretty hungry that day I got two slices. One with just plain cheese the other one with chicken, mushroom & spinach. I thought the spinach would be fresh but it appeared to already cooked spinach. It did compliment the pizza well so I had no issues with it. The food was good & the best replica of NY pizza. This place is a take out joint but there's seating in the back. For those coming here for the first time watch your surroundings, there's a bunch of homeless people who linger around the front asking customers to buy them food. I was almost a victim of this but I simply ignored the gentleman. This is a good spot for a good pizza. read more

I had lasagna, salad, and a roll. The food I had was ok. The next time I stop by, I will order pizza.

What happened to you my love, Rosa!?! You used to be some of the best NY pie in the city, but the last 2 visits have been horrible. The dough is dry and flavorless, the undercarriage is 3x thicker than it should be. I mean seriously 1/4 inch in thickness!? What is that all about? The sauce isn't the same sweet, loving taste we had before. Tastes generic and cheap. It doesn't even feel like the same pizza place I've been going to for years. Come back to us Rosa. Give us our thin, floppy, greasy NY pie we love so much. read more

Fresh food and good pizza for a great price, all from a hole in the wall. What more could you ask for?

lovee this pizza place!! crust was crispy outside, soft inside, just perfect. the cheese was melty and sooo gooood. toppings were fresh, and the sauce was rich and tasty. service was friendly but kinda slow. overall great pizza, will be back! 8.5/10 read more

Great pizza slices at an affordable price from this hole in the wall establishment with a few caveats -- not the cleanest of restaurants with a dirty floor and, on a recent visit, witnessed the owner reaming out an employee in full view of customers. read more

If you are going to have a delivery order from Rosa's make sure it is earlier than 1230pm. Their pizza is great when it's hot. This is the second time I've ordered around 1pm and received an old inedible pizza. Grub Hub did refund my money - the pizza is in the garbage and now I have to find something to eat. read more

Pizza was excellent and the staff very friendly. Price point was good and the pizzas are big. Got it to go, so didn't eat in.

We bought 20 or so pizzas for a student group. The ordering and payment process was smooth, the delivery was perfect and 5 minutes early. They called when they were on the way! The pizza was also very good. 60 happy students and chaperones!! They were also thoughtful and brought plates, forks, napkins, parm and red pepper flakes!!! Thank you Rosa's!! read more

Small single counter pizzeria. It's easy to miss if you're not looking for it! Right next to Naanstop and Aderhold if you're a GSU student. Only $2.20 per cheese slices and the slices are huge. Good cheap pizza. read more

Rosa's Pizza - Two cheese slices - Pizza Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The significant other and I stopped here after the Atlanta Science Festival for lunch. He remembered Rosa's Pizza from back in the day when he was a teeny weeny student. :) Don't judge this place by its cover bc the health rating, B, will probably not be inviting -- nor the cracks and cranny of this place. But, the food was cheap and pretty delish. You can order by the slice or a whole pizza. And as for the topping choices, you can add whatever and how ever many your heart desires, and you will be charge according to the topping amount. The pizza slice is huge btw -- see my pic -- so committing to one or two of that is enough. The mushroom and ground beef pizza slice he ordered was pretty yummy. I wanted something different and got the cheesy calzone (it comes standard with cheese inside). I added ricotta cheese (don't recommend), sun dried tomatoes (yes! please), and spicy sausage into the calzone. Man, was that thing super duper cheesy when you get to the middle bottom. But, it was tasty. Overall, Rosa's Pizza was cheap and had good food for a whomping $10. My calzone was a standard $4.99 with add'l toppings, but the single pizza slice was pretty cheap. read more

I just got back from Manhattan so their pizza is still just fresh in my mind. I had some horrible pizza in NY and good slices but they were all at least $3 a slice. Rosa's starts a $2.20 which is amazing. I did see a 0.99c pizza walking around in NY but I was somewhat hesitant to go inside. Rosa's is my favorite NY style pizza in Atlanta. I remember coming here frequently as a student because of their price. The price is still great and the pizza is still good. I like making pizzas at home but I could never get the thin crust NY style right. Rosa's has all the toppings I want. I went with mushroom and sausage. My fiancé got a calzone with sausage and sun dried tomatoes. I think I paid $10 for both of us. Would I come here again? Yes. Parking sucks but I would stop by if I were in the area. I hope they stay there feeding poor college students forever. read more

Omg, how could I have missed this place?! I went to GSU for 2 years and never stopped by. Idk what authentic new York pizza tastes like but all I know is after eating this, I'm ready to book it to NYC. They have a $6 special, 2 slices of pizza with 1 topping and a drink. Waaaay too much food unbeknownst to me. I got one slice with ground beef crumbles and one slice with spinach. He added my toppings on some cheese pizza then pushed the slices into the oven. Mannnnn, this pizza was so good. I tried to stuff it down but it was too much. I have to come back for sure x unfortunately they close at 6 but I get off at 5 so I should be able to make it lolol. read more

Love Rosa's! If you are close by, then this is the spot to stop for lunch. I mean it is always a good time to eat pizza! It is good for for a VERY reasonable price. It is the only place that I can get a $3 lunch that tastes good and leaves me feeling full too! I always order just one slice of pepperoni for the past few years that I have been eating here. The NY-style slices they offer are huge and made fresh to order. It might appear that there is a long line, but trust me, it moves fast! They also have another location in Marietta if you are OTP! read more

If you're from where I'm from then you already know REAL New York pizza. If you're not where I'm from and want to try authentic New York style pizzas then this is the place for you. It's been here as long as I have and has never changed it's menu or recipes once. Lunchtime is always packed mostly because it's inside of Georgia State University's campus so if you have limited time for lunch (like everyone else) call in your order. Lunch specials 2 slices and a drink $7. Paid parking on the street and at lots located less than one block away. Luckie street up to broad street is now closed off and changed into an outside dining area. read more

Surprisingly good NewYork style pizza in the south. I would eat here again! It's a hole in the wall... but don't let that keep you away!

Fast, hot, delicious pizza - what more could a person ask for? Um, how about monster slices for only $2.20? A tip: lunchtime is an utter zoo! So many people means the food has to be good, right? It is. Well, that and you're smack in the middle of the Georgia State campus downtown. Be prepared for a line that stretches down the length of the wall when you arrive. It may seem long, but don't let that phase you: it actually moves pretty quickly. And because you yell your order to the cooks, by time you make it up to the register, your food is either already or close to being done. Works for me! It's your standard NY-style pizza (fold to eat, folks! fold to eat!) where a slice of pie just straight-up cheese stands nicely on its own. Want extra toppings? Only .55 each. Plus there are some specials, as well as offerings like calzones, lasagna and salads. The restaurant itself is no-frills with a tiny eating area in the back with tables. But if it's a nice day, I'd suggest instead to take it to go. Snag a seat out front to people-watch, or head just a block over to Woodruff Park and picnic outdoors. Good, cheap, tasty pizza. If you're peckish, this will hit the spot. read more

So I ordered delivery to my office from here the other day because some people in the office rave about them. I odered 5 large pizzas for my department and was told on the phone the building told them that they can not go upstairs, so I would have to meet them in the lobby. I thought that I could meet them in the lobby and escort them up since security would see 5 large pizzas was not light. The guy I arrived, I met him downstairs and he had the pizzas on a cart. The lady at security told him that he could go upstairs and that they get food deliveries all the time and that is not the buildings policy. So from what I gathered, it's the restaurants policy. I signed the credit card receipt and left a nice tip, so I asked him to please help bring the pizzas up, he obliged. So now to the pizzas, they were exactly what I ordered, but unfortunately no one was impressed. The slices were huge, so I suggest getting it double sliced if you order a large.Something was missing, but we couldn't put our finger on it. The white pizza was my favorite. read more
