    Ahhhhh

    Old school Athens, hole in the wall sandwich and pizza shop that's been around for years. I always get thin crust pizza- its the best ever and if you get some jalapeños, be sure to be prepared for heat. In town for a visit, stopped by to grab a couple slices of my fav thin and crispy slices of pepperoni, black olive and mushroom and it was sooo good!! Huge slices, the whole pies are huge as well and price points are for college students. Affordable pizza, sandwiches, antipasto , cold beer, its all here. If you haven't tried it, come in and have a bite and see. Highly recommend!!

    Ordered pizza to go and it was so yummy! The staff was very nice and it was a cute little pizza joint. I think it'll take about 20-25~ mins for the pizza to be done after you place it! But it was hot n fresh

    Little Italy in Athans Georgia is a retro Italian sandwich shop with good sandwiches and pizza right in the heart of UGA. After doing a charity walk in the AM, I went to lunch with my best friend Melody (also a Yelper) and her family. We enjoyed a good lunch before heading back home. I am sure this place has many a student visiting this establishment for a quick bit t

    Super, large pizza slices. Customize by adding your own toppings. I added green peppers and onions. The veggies were plentiful and tasted so fresh. Busy place due to it's proximity to UGA. Cash price is lower than price for using plastic.

    The best pizza & subs in Athens!!! Hands down the freshest. Delicious subs with amazing bread. Bottle beer or pitcher, and it's open late......after the bars close. This place has been Athens downtown "go to spot" since it opened in 1997. Awesome customer service.

    Little Italy is a great place in downtown Athens across the street from South end of the the UGA campus. They serve hot and cold sandwiches, pizza by the slice and whole pies, and salads; think antipasto. There might be other items on the menu I don't recall. I got the Meatball Parm, which was quite good. You can order a 6 inch or a 12 inch sandwich. The 12 inch is big enough to share, and it's conveniently cut in half. Beer and soft drinks are offered. Pro tip: If you want something stronger after your meal, the quite excellent Road House is right next door. It opens at 2:00 p.m. A little bit late lunch followed by a stop at The Road House next door is where it's at if one is at liberty to do so. The service was friendly and prompt. I went there around 1:00 p.m., and it wasn't busy. At night, however, it gets packed with UGA kids when they are done drinking at one or more of the numerous bars in downtown Athens. The place is quite roomy with lots of tables and booths. As depicted in my pics, the love for the UGA Dawgs is strong here. It's a legit very reasonably priced pizzeria. Cheers!

    This is the one spot in Athens that genuinely has NY style pizza. I got 2 simple slices of thin slice cheese pizza and for the portion, the price was fair. The pizza was cooked to perfection and had just the right amounts of flavor. I also got a veggie sub which was SO good and filled with lots of veggies and cheese. Both meals were very filling and the service was quick and friendly! The atmosphere of the place has a very downtown diner vibe, but it's a good spot to come hangout with friends. If you're ever craving some greasy NY goodness, then this is your spot! Will be visiting again!

    Nice by the slice joint; not the fastest but good quality. Plenty of booths to stretch out in and enjoy a beer. Or twelve.

    Great after a night out since they are open late. I like how you can buy just a slice and still add whatever toppings you want.

We love to meet family and friends there, share good food, and eat outdoors in good weather. * Food :Best fresh ingredients. Large portions. Good price. Personnel: helpful, efficient Facility: The restaurant building has been here so long it's a classic, well-loved part of the community, on a busy corner outside the main Athens area. Not new, but well kept, clean, and cheerful. Not new, but well kept, with nicely spaced tables & booths inside. Both covered seating , and open seating outside. Family friendly. Outside has lovely old tall, tall cypress trees along the side. like you see in Italy. They have added new little cypress trees in pots in the front so you can see how the tall ones began. The adjacent parking lot is usually ample. Location: Although it is outside the busy main area of Athens, it's a quick drive and well worth the trip. It's near the state botanical garden if you want to enjoy another Athens treasure before or after you eat. * * The only complaint we have is the addition of loud music after the new management took over -it's worse inside, so you can have conversations more easily outside if the weather permits.

Have to walk around people looking at a hand held menu to get a menu to then stand in limited area to look over menu. Ordered a Calzone and 2 pizzas, 80$ later, (water for drinks) told no substitutions... we get how they make it. They forgot our side of ranch, when asked about it, they act like I was trying to get over on them, after spending 80$.... Yes I paid for it. !?! ( 4 sides to be exact) They act very ungrateful. They yell your number order through the loudest speaker I've ever heard at restaurant. Felt like cattle auction. Pizza was greasy and limp. Not worth the money.
