    Outstanding Neapolitan pizza, amazing service, and beer on tap! I should've gone here a long time ago. Itala Pizza has been open for about 3 1/2 years, and I finally stopped in -- now I regret waiting this long! This place has easily become my new favorite Neapolitan pizza spot in North Georgia. The first thing you notice when you walk in is the space -- plenty of room, large tables, and a layout perfect for families and groups. I even saw another table celebrating a birthday and grabbing gelato afterward. The service is fantastic, everyone's friendly, and the whole place runs super efficiently. They've got two wood-fired ovens, which means pizzas come out fast -- mine was ready in about 5 minutes even though it was busy. The Sorrento pizza (their pepperoni) was amazing: crispy, flavorful, not greasy, and that dough... just perfect. The crust had the right chew, and the pizza was served on a sturdy tray that keeps it from sliding around. Prices are about $20-$25 per pizza, one size (roughly 15-16"), great for two people. I even had leftovers, and the pizza still tasted great cold later. The pistachio cannoli was fantastic -- perfectly fried, light, and filled just right. They've got a Coca-Cola Freestyle machine (Coke Zero for me ), a cooler with Italian drinks, beer on tap, and -- my favorite touch -- a big metal container by the register with hot extra pizza sauce for dipping. It's those small details that make the experience special. Parking was easy, even though the plaza is busy. There's plenty of overflow parking across the way if it's packed during peak hours. All in all, amazing food, great people, fast service, and some of the best authentic Neapolitan pizza around. Highly recommend checking this place out -- you'll be glad you did!

    Came in here on a Friday night with my parents for a quick bite to eat and this did not disappoint! After ordering at the counter our salad and caprese came out so quickly and both were very tasty. Our pizza also came out very fast and was SO GOOD! We finished our meal with some creamy gelato. The staff was so friendly and was helpful with recommendations. Definitely recommend for an upscale casual, and delicious meal. We will be back!

    This is our first visit to this establishment. It's the real deal. Fresh ingredients is and the salad was perfect.

    My wife works close to here so my first time trying Itala Pizza was via a take out to go pizza and salad. I enjoyed the food and quality of the pizza and salad at home. Fast forward a few months and we finally had a chance to eat the restaurant so the experience was new and even better than eating it at home. The restaurant is spacious, well lit, and clean. The pizza and salad are great and the condiments are plenty and very well organized. It was nice to have the option to have some basil, oregano, olive oil, spicy olive oil, Parmesan, and marinara sauce to add on to an already delicious pizza. Our go to pizza was usually the Bellucci, but we have also enjoyed their margherita pizza and calabrese piccante pizza as well. Their gelatos are delicious and high quality. Drinks are in bottles and their prices while a little high, are competitive for this napoletana style pizza. Solid place for Italian style pizza and their salads are great also. The dressing is good but I have enjoyed their salads without dressing since the blue cheese adds enough flavor to the fresh greens already and pecans and blueberries add a delicious touch. 5 solid stars for Itala Pizza and glad you are here. Thank you!

    The best Italian pizza! Move over antico! Itala has a great setup with none of the parking nightmare that Avalon brings. You will want to give them a try and even sample some of the delicious gelato.

    Itala Pizza is open from 11AM to 9PM There Health Score is 100 =A as of 11/13/23 The service was cool. Main Tip: They only sale whole Pizzas. No pizza by the slice. The ambiance was quite on the day I visited because no one was inside the restaurant. It was the Pizza experience for me.

    Really good pizza. Not greasy and delicious. Located in the complex with several other stores. Have a good selection of desserts. Really good Cannoli, not too sweet at all. Has seating inside and plenty of parking outside.

    OK, so I heard about this really good ppace for "Authentic Italian pizza," in John's Creek, did a little research and decided to brave the wet streets on my CHEAT DAY and give it a try. I am not one for cussing, so I will just say... Wow! The pizza was REALLY GOOD! Full disclosure, it is absolutely NOT like an American-style pizza. The crust is thin, not cracker-thin but stable enough to hold the light, yet well portioned toppings. It is not over-done or piled with a bunch of toppings to confuse your palate or tastebuds. It is as I said REALLY GOOD. They also have desserts (did not indulge), gelato, sorbetto, cake slices and cannolis. As far as seating, there is plenty. Kind of reminded me of a school cafeteria. Big long tables with plenty of chairs. All that was missing was 'Peter Piper' by Run-DMC playing on a jukebox by the Coke machine and it would have time-warped me. Nah, it was a nice touch but I took my pie to-go. I had the Margherita pizza but the time I will try the Capri-Verdure and let you know. If it is anything like today's pie, I am sure I will not be disappointed.

    I enjoyed this vegan pizza, it was simple and garlicky and delicious. The crust is super thin and they make the pizza right there from scratch and cook them in their pizza oven which you can see from your seat. It's pretty spacious so you can come in big groups.

    We have driven by this place countless times, and never stopped...shame on us! It's a pretty small…read moreplace, but comfortable spacing, atmosphere was very good, and staff were all very friendly and attentive. We ordered the calamari and bruschetta for appetizers and we were asked if we wanted the free garlic knots (BIG MISTAKE) The calamari were good especially because my husband and son prefer the rings and the whole plate were rings. My mother had never had them before (we didn't tell her what they were) and she also thoroughly enjoyed them. The bruschetta was ok; it was very different than I'm used to because it had tiny mozzarella balls in it, which were nice, but seriously lacked garlic and the tomatoes were blah. The thing I like about the most were the slices of bread around the bruschetta because they were soft and crunchy in all the right places. Those garlic knots on the other hand are trouble ...the dough was so fresh and had so much flavor, I ate 2 of them and couldn't really eat my entree, but they were incredibly worth every bite! For our entrees I ordered penne alla vodka (I wish the made it with rigatoni. I thought it was ok. It seems too thick and not as good as I've had elsewhere, but maybe I was too full already because my husband thought it was very good. My husband had eggplant Parmesan which was a very nice portion and cooked perfectly. My mother had a cheese calzone which was probably the biggest and nicest cook on one I've ever seen and she really enjoyed it. My son had sausage and peppers and he really like it even though he doesn't generally like red sauce, but the sauce that came with garlic knots and calamari was all the same, and he loved it. The only thing he wasn't thrilled with was the sausage were all sliced. We all expected to have whole links, but they were thinly sliced longways. I wouldn't say I'm in a hurry to go back, but I would again and maybe get one of those calzones for myself or try pizza .

    I sat at the bar for about 10 min before someone asked me "if I was picking up an order" or "if I…read morewas placing an order." Service could be better. Nobody was in the restaurant. I think 2 tables inside and 1 table outside. Ambiance was pretty cool. I ordered the chicken florentino which was a chicken breast with a demi glaze sage sauce, topped with mushrooms, & mozzarella cheese and mashed potatoes. The food was really good. It's very flavorful and very appetizing. Next time I will stop by and dine in, instead of do a to go order maybe my experience will be different.

Service is always attentive, but not pesty. Burgers on the menu are always a great casual lunch or dinner. The 007 burger is my favorite. The specials rotate regularly so if you want something different that option is available too. This visit they had a mascarpone ravioli with scallops, spinach, sundried tomatoes, and lobster-butter sauce. Outside seating is a winner with umbrellas for the summer and propane burners for winter. This place has a lot of variety for whatever mood you are in.

The service was already terrible when we were told to sit down wherever and then this guy comes out of nowhere and sits us down at a terrible spot, and keeps coming back to asks questions even when we ordered steak he came back to ask what temperature which is very odd because it's normally asked when you order THE steak. Ambiance is okay very simple and bland, could be more vibrant.

    First time trying Indian pizza and it's quite yummy! There's a very generous amount of toppings and…read morecheese for a good price ($14 for the small, which has 6 slices). You also get 3 free toppings! Jalapeños with the butter chicken was a good recommendation. The chicken 65 pizza has a nice subtle kick to it. The only thing for me is that the pizza wasn't as flavorful as I had expected and the garlic paneer didn't have noticeable garlic flavoring. Plenty of parking in the front and a very chill, grab-your-own stuff kind of restaurant. The owner is very kind and helpful with helping us order the pizzas and recommending toppings and portions. Overall, I recommend checking out this local restaurant if you've never tried Indian pizza!

    I love this place for Indian pizzas. We were introduced to Rice n' Pie a few years ago at a…read morefriend's party and since then we were hooked. It's uncommon to find Indian pizzas in Atlanta (ones that do it good at least) so this place was a treat. We've ordered numerous times - all pickup/takeout orders only. While they do have a decent sized restaurant and seating area, we've just found it more convenient to pick up our pizzas while we are close by. You have two choices of pizza sizes - small (personal) and large (this is the shareable option). If you are hungry and only eating a pizza this is a good size for 2. You can also opt for a pan pizza or a thin crust (which IMO is more like a regular crust). I've tried almost all their flavors - tikka, garlic, 65, chilli, butter and they all are yum. I always end up adding bell peppers, onions and cilantro on mine to give it that extra flavor boost (things that go perfectly well with Indian cooking). You can add up to 3 vegetable toppings for free and pay a nominal charge to add more. You also can select your protein - chicken, shrimp, or keep it simple with paneer. They do have a lot of other food options on their menu but I've yet to try, so this review is almost exclusively for their pizzas. Their staff is nice and polite, and there is plenty of parking outside. On occasions, I've found their pizza to have spend a little more time in the oven making the toppings a little hard, but still plenty tasty! I recommend their Indian pizza - you can't go wrong!
