Let's start with the good... The pizza and the cocktails are amazing! I ordered Nana's Traditional pizza with pepperoni! The crust was perfectly thin and crispy! They put these large pepperoni's on it, "mmmm, mmmm, good!!" Also, the bartender who ended up being our server, made me the most delicious Aperol Spritz. If you want an authentic one, don't do bottomless!! They use champagne instead of Prosecco. I paid the $11+ for the Prosecco. It was delicious! Definitely worth it! Also, our server did end up being super cool! The not so good. First, some of the employees need attitude adjustments. When we first arrived the lady that was the food runner was a bit rude! I asked her about parking and she abruptly said, "I don't know, you'll have to ask someone else," then walked off. After standing there dumbfounded for a minute, I walked over to the bar and the bartender was more friendly and helpful. Also, the tables were very sticky! All in all, the experience was a good one! My bookclub members loved all of the food! I will definitely come back! read more

Varasano's absolutely lives up to the hype! From the moment we arrived, it was clear why this place has such a loyal following. Watching the pizzas being made fresh by hand was such a cool experience, and you can truly see the passion and attention to detail that goes into every pie. The Neapolitan-style pizzas were outstanding with fresh in-house ingredients, a perfectly crisp, slightly charred crust, and incredible flavor in every bite. Everything tasted fresh and high quality. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I also loved the atmosphere and outdoor patio seating. It was the perfect spot to enjoy great food and spend time with family.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The happy hour specials are a bonus too, especially the bottomless wine and mimosas. The staff is welcoming and friendly. read more

Came recently and had an amazing time! There's validated parking nearby and lots of seating indoors and outdoors. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bottomless spritzes for $19 is such a great deal. Tasted great too! They kept our glasses refilled, definitely worth the money and got a great buzz. The Caramelized Onion Pizza was delicious and came out pretty fast. My friend got the Nana's pizza with pepperoni and a couple other add-ons and loved it. The add-ons are pretty pricey in my opinion (around $3 extra to add certain toppings). Overall: great pizza, great drinks, amazing drink deal, and swift, nice service. Will definitely be coming back to try their bottomless wine Thursday. read more

Best pizza in Atlanta, likely the entire east coast. Service is impeccable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is relaxed and usually not too busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Amazing read more

I tried the pizza at Varasano's and thought it was pretty good overall. I liked the thin crust, and the toppings were solid. My only issue was the size -- the pizza felt a little small for the price. I also ordered the meatballs. They come in orders of two or four, and I got the two. They tasted good, but the meatballs were pretty small for the cost. The small salad was also fresh and good, but again, the portion felt a bit small. So overall, the food quality was good, but the portion sizes didn't really match the price in my opinion. Parking is convenient since there's a parking garage underneath the building, and they don't offer a military discount. This was a takeout order, so I might give them another try dining in. I'm curious if the portions -- especially the meatballs and salad -- would be a little more generous if you eat there. read more

Very very great pizza! There is some parking in the deck behind but not a ton. You seat yourself when you walk in. But service was still quick! This was our first time so we went with some basics. Started with a Caesar salad which was very nice. But hard to mess up a Caesar! The pizza we decided to do half sausage with fennel and half capicola. Both were great! The pizza was a thin but with a nice crust. We saw a lot of other pizzas that looked great too! [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can see them making the pizzas and everything.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall a good experience! read more

This was my first time dining here. It's very accessible and in a good location. Parking is easy to access and free which is a huge plus. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We arrived around 4:30 pm on a Sunday and the dining room was quiet and fairly empty. By the time we left around 6, it got packed! Seems like a fun place to be on Sunday afternoons.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a nice patio area that I'm sure if very fun in the warmer months.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The pizza was tasty, but mine was a little cold when it arrived at the table. That is the reason for 4 stars. Will be delicious when I heat up my leftovers. Would still recommend and return for some good pizza. read more

DELISH!!! I met up with some girlfriends here for dinner on a Tuesday and super easy to get a table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a quaint little restaurant and the staff was super nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] No drinks for us this evening but we got some appetizers and pizza. The garlic knit bites were delicious and super garlicky. We split 2 pizzas, the one with arugulas and the mushroom pizza which we added sausage to. Pizza was delicious and yummy and I thought it was well priced as well. Definitely delish! read more

The food was sooooo fresh it was lol . I've never had a Caesar Salad dressing so fresh you can taste the anchovies. The pizzas are extremely thin and that is a very good thing . Quick tip , try two different kinds to get the full experience. The bartender was very informative and nice , she really helped us get the best experience. Definitely check this place out. read more

The pizza and salads at Varasanos are authentic and delicious. Food gets a 5 star!

Alright.... For me, this was just not it. I had the Nana's and added garlic and mushrooms. This pizza, for me, had no flavor. The sauce tasted like it came right out of a jar and you can't see any seasonings in that pizza sauce. I added some Italian seasoning. It needed a few more. I guess, this all depends on what kind of "flavor" you're used to. read more

Varasano's is honestly one of my favorite pizza spots in Atlanta. The crust has that perfect chew and it is just thick enough to hold the sauce without turning into mush. The toppings always taste fresh and everything comes out hot like they actually want you to enjoy your meal. And please get the garlic bread bites. I don't know what they put in those little things but they disappear fast. I took my cousin here and he immediately said this is the best pizza in the city and he argues about everything, so take that as you will. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is chill. You can pull up for a casual date night, girls night, or when you just want good pizza without doing too much.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend. They're also open for brunch though I haven't tried it yet. Lastly, they have specials during the week, can't remember which day but one day they have half price wine read more

I've driven past this many times and finally decided to get dinner here with some friends on a Tuesday night! There's plenty of parking in the lot out front and we were seated immediately when we entered. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes are pretty casual but welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We decided to split garlic bites, the fontina mushroom pizza (which we added sausage to), and the Chica Bella which was ricotta and arugula based. For 3 of us, this was the perfect amount with a few leftovers! The garlic bites were delicious and buttery and the pizza had the right amount of bite. I loved the earthiness of the mushrooms and the chica bella was light and fresh. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, great, homey spot![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Came here for the first time and added sweet peppers and mushrooms to my pizza. I do like how thin the pizza crust is but thought the crust was a tad too thin for me. The pizza dough tasted nice and overall pizza was good but to be great I definitely felt it was lacking sauce and cheese, it needed more. If I come again I'd request those modifications. Service was excellent. The person that helped was Aout and she was lovely. Shot out to her! read more

Delicious food! We went there with a group of 11 and our server did a great job. We ordered garlic knots, meatballs, caprese salad and a house salad to start. For dinner we had the Margherita Di Bufala add Capicola. The bartender and server did a great job keeping the drinks flowing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Loved the decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We'll be back! read more

A Buckhead tradition for decades . The pizza is thin & Charred perfectly, The Italian sausage has that Anise taste I love . The bartenders & servers are a pleasure. You just know it's well managed .

Pizza was great! The crust had the perfect char with a light, airy texture, and the sauce was fresh and flavorful. The mozzarella was melted perfectly and paired really well with the cured meat on top. Simple, classic, and done right. read more

Had a girls night and tried their "Slice of Heaven" with the owner. Comes at $38/ person and is absolutely worth it. You try a bunch of pizzas that the knowledgeable owner comes up with on the spot. Everything was fresh and delicious. Their margherita is well awarded and I can confidently agree these are well deserved. We wished the owner would've gone through the flavors more, they were rather dished out one after another so we felt a little rushed between slices. Definitely voice this if you also feel this way. He was very accommodating to any dietary restrictions the party had, however there is a high likelihood of cross contamination because he wasn't changing gloves between the meats/veggies (I was a vegetarian). Also voice this if this is an issue for you. read more

I came here for the "Slice of Heaven" tasting. Varasano's is some of the best pizza I've had in Atlanta. Jeff curated this personalized pizza tasting to show how he makes the pizza, the history of the restaurant, and all the ingredients used. Some of the ingredients he picks fresh from his own garden on the patio. We tried pizzas that aren't even on the menu! Everything was delicious! read more

At the Atlanta airport location and ordered a house salad - got spinach instead of mixed greens. A hair in my salad and fly on the mushroom. To boot the salad certifiably tasted bad. That salad and glass of cab cost me $35. Will not ever be coming back despite how many times only through this airport. read more

Absolutely phenomenal pizza. Sauce has the perfect amount of sweet and the crust....THE CRUST! Paper thin and just fantastic! Overall a wonderful experience and would go back in a second! read more

Got to check out a "Slice of Heaven" Experience with Chef Jeff at @varasanospizzeria. We got to taste 8-12 different flavors of pizza, with some not even being on the menu. We got an exclusive look at Chef Jeff's garden where he uses the freshest herbs to add to his pizza creations. Because Varasano's uses natural ingredients and also uses natural sourdough yeast their pizza is flaky, delicate, and thin. I had so many favorites out of the variety we had to choose from!! In this experience, you will definitely find your favorite slice. If you're interested in this experience you can email Chef Jeff at jeff@varasanos.com to schedule! Varasano's is located in the heart of Buckhead so be sure to also visit the restaurant and check out the patio while it's still warm! I'll definitely be back read more

Pretty disappointed not gonna lie. Sauce was watery. Spinach was soggy and wilted. Garlic bites was a bunch of little squares of crust [[HIGHLIGHT]]Saw a tiny gnat on our table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Won't be back. read more

Bufala and Coppa and Margherita pies were absolutely impeccable. Nice thin crust and extremely tasty. I put them up there with the top pies in the city and that list is like 3 deep lol. They're there though. Texture as well. A nice folded slice. I will be back. ATL isn't really a pizza town but it's getting there if more options like this come into play. Cudos to the bartender as well. Her service was top notch. read more

The location, the service, the food, the ambiance all rank a solid vibration at this one of a kind pizzeria. I need lessons was the single line that popped in my head when I watched the chef stretch the dough to make the pie. Where I grew up in San Francisco, pizzerias in my neighborhood would stretch and soon that dough to perfection. I too want to learn that phenomenal experience. This restaurant is top notch with a menu to match. The owner takes his quality ingredients along with a side of heart and soul to please your palate. Don't take this step lightly, it's trend setting and more pizzerias should embrace this concept. Better ingredients healthier food is what life evolves around. Why waste time investing in anything less from a business perspective and from a patrons expectations? At Varasanos pizzeria, customers will get higher quality and some of the best tasting pizza in the entire state of Georgia. In my opinion. You'll have to find out for yourself. Come solo or bring a group, you will not face disappointment read more

Varasano's Pizzeria - Margherita Di Bufala Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. The few times I have been here, has been for brunch and they were to celebrate a birthday. The first time I went, it was for my birthday, the 2nd time I went was for my girlfriend's birthday, and the 3rd time I went was for my friend's birthday. They have a brunch menu that goes until 11:30am-4pm on Saturdays and Sundays. One of the coolest things about this place, is that not only does it do bottomless mimosas, but it does bottomless bloody marys and bellinis as well. You can mix it up too, it doesn't have to be just one type for the entire time you are there. I personally get the bloody marys, because I love a good bloody! While they do have a brunch food menu, you are also more than welcome to order anything from the other menu as well. It is a pizzeria type of place, so I highly recommend trying one of their pizzas. The grilled egg sandwich is excellent. Comes with some arugula and the bread has such a nice crispy bite to it. The eggs in heaven or hell (sweet or spicy) are EGG-cellent as well. I got mine spicy, because I love anything spicy. I have also tried the bacon sampler and the potatoes as well, and they are super good. Apart from the food being a 10/10, the service is a 10/10 as well. All 3 times I went, the owner, Jeff, has come to our table to talk to us and ask us how our experience is going. He even took a shot with us one time! He's one of the few owners in Atlanta that I actually remember their name, and who has made a lasting impression on me and my friends. He's super friendly and quite humorous too. Definitely request to speak with him, because he's a super cool guy and he actually creates a relationship with his guests. For my girlfriend's birthday, he brought out a bubble making device and some sparklers (He did this for my birthday and my friend's as well.) Such a nice touch! This place is the perfect brunch spot for a big group of friends or even just a place to have lunch/dinner with your significant other. They have a vast menu and a full bar, so you'll definitely find something you like. I can't recommend this place enough!!! read more

I have nothing to complain about service the pizza was out quick and hot and fresh. However i was disappointed on how it wasn't crispy or flakey being a thin pizza I would expect that. It felt like it was really lacking taste of freshness of basil and the tomato sauce it felt like a bland naan bread. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place was very cute they had fresh basil growing outside and overall cute spot[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Uber eats order.. I love this style of pizza but I've def had better in the area.*cough (Varuni Napoli) cough* They need to add a bit more sauce basil and mozzarella to their margherita pizza.. felt like I was just eating crust .. literally had barely any cheese on it at all. The pizza dough here is really good tho! garlic bites are good but you barely get any for 7 bucks. They also forgot the sun dried tomato oil I added to my order. Lastly, we got a side order of sourdough bread thinking it would be a nice loaf of doughy table bread thats fresh & moist .. but it was literally sliced sandwich bread. Kinda weird! Maybe the pasta is good? Idk haven't tried it and probably won't now. read more

This was a huge disappointment. Unfortunately, most of the food looks better than it tastes. The pizza has decent flavor, but is so thin and soggy that the toppings slide right off when you try to pick it up. I was shocked by how bland Nana's Sunday Gravy was (this was the worst thing we had). The garlic bites looked like ripped up scraps. The house salad was ok, but some of the toppings didn't look very fresh. I would say it's definitely overpriced for what you get and there's much better pizza places in Atlanta. read more

The worst. Got there at 7:15pm, seat yourself. Waitress came took our order and gave waters. Waited about 45mins before she came back to say sorry food is taking so long. Came back about 15-20mins later with one persons order which was the wrong order, but also looked very soggy and undercooked inside. I wish I would have taken a picture. She comes back and notices it's the wrong order, apologizes and says she'll fix it. My order never came. After waiting a total of 1hr& 15mins, we decided to leave. No one at our table of 2 ever received their food. We only received water. Watched other people come in after and get their food. I watched a guy eat his entire pizza and get a to go box and we still never received anything. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Complete waste of time. And it was not busy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Pizza was good. Hand tossed. Nice ingredients. I went to the counter and asked for a pizza with meat, I was told to use the basic "Nana's" and add toppings. I said pepperoni and sausage. $29!!!! Four small thin pieces. Most expensive pizza I've EVER had and it was only okay. It's an airport...get some basic pizzas and make them available...took 25 mins too, my co-travelers were all done by the time I ate. Go elsewhere. read more
