Varasano's Pizzeria - Buckhead, Atlanta GA

Amazing restaurant, Definitely worth its weight in Gold and Diamonds. I’m officially a New Member at this hidden Gem in the heart of Buckhead. Thank you for opening up this stellar establishment. Simple in its complexity and extraordinary food with hospitality indeed ; Michelin rated.

Had dinner tonight, ordered the dirty martini and it was amazing. Bake the bartender was awesome, He was very kind and he made my visit worth coming back. Great service!

Went here to get some pizza and had a great experience. Michael was our server and was hilarious and incredibly helpful with menu suggestions. We ended up getting the garlic bites and two different pizzas and everything was absolutely delicious. If you are a fan of thin crust pizza this is a hidden gem. Thanks for the great service Michael, can't wait to visit again.

Best pizza in Atlanta. Did the slice of heaven experience and totally recommend. Prices very reasonable. Jeff is the best!

Worst pizza I ever had. It tastes absolutely awful it belongs in the dumpster The same goes for the garlic bread bites. I feel absolutely sick after eating it. Worst Pizza restaurant ever. Avoid at all cost it will save you from the disgusting and overpriced food. Domino's pizza is 1000x better than this place. Never ever eating here again.

Nice location. We must have visited this place at a bad time. The food came out warm. The soft drink (see picture) was expired and my friend and I had to request new drinks because it was flat. The owner or manager made the rounds and asked how everything tasted which is a plus but when we explained how we made the trip downtown from the suburbs based on the reviews and further explained that the food came out warm and the expired soda, he responded that we should have mentioned it earlier as he can't do anything now that we have started eating the food. Really? You can't? I beg to differ. You don't know how to take care of patrons and are simply clueless about customer care when your restaurant is serving expired products. Anyway, too many good places to eat outside the perimeter to revisit this place. Good luck everyone.

Excellent pizza! The crust is so thin and chewy and the ingredients are top notch. Reading other reviews, apparently they have a pizza taste testing? We definitely want to go back to try that!

The best part about the pizza was the actual crust of the pizza. It was really amazing with airy pizza base. I have tasted better toppings and pizza sauce than these but the bread steals the show.
The garlic bites were not something we normally expect it comes as a flat bread. Tasty though!

I came for a business trip to Atlanta and I arrived pretty late, I figured I'll call for a local pizza to feed my kids
I passed by, sat and ate.the young guy on the bar was very welcoming and helpful, pizza was great and glad I decided to give then a call.

Jeff is awesome! Wonderful variety of pizzas! We were here for my son’s graduation from Georgia Tech and we did the Slice of Heaven experience and it is highly recommended!

Varasano's Pizzeria is, without a doubt, a gastronomic treasure trove tucked away in the heart of Atlanta. Having sampled pizzas in various corners of the world (including Italy!), I can confidently assert that Varasano's stands head and shoulders above the rest, making it my undisputed favorite pizzeria.

What sets Varasano's apart is not just its delicious pizzas but the ingenious combinations of flavors that Chef Jeff Varasano (the same guy who set the Rubik's Cube US Record when he was 15!) brings to the table. The caramelized onion pizza, a surprising favorite of mine despite my usual aversion to onions, is a testament to his culinary genius. The sweet, savory notes of the caramelized onions, perfectly balanced with emmentaler cheese, meld harmoniously on the palate. It's a culinary adventure that transforms seemingly ordinary ingredients into a culinary masterpiece.

My second favorite - the Margherita pizza at Varasano's, is nothing short of incredible. Chef Varasano's commitment to using gourmet ingredients shines through in every bite. The freshness of the tomatoes, the creaminess of the Bufala mozzarella, and the aromatic basil meld together on a sublime sourdough crust that elevates the entire pizza experience. The sourdough crust, a unique touch, adds a delightful depth of flavor and a perfect crunch to each slice.

What truly baffles me is how Varasano's Pizzeria remains so underrated in Atlanta. This establishment should be heralded as the best in the city and arguably one of the finest in the entire United States. The combination of inventive toppings, gourmet ingredients, and the exceptional sourdough crust sets Varasano's on a pedestal of its own.

The dedication to quality is evident not only in the outstanding pizzas but also in the overall dining experience. One of the experiences I enjoy most is the private experience that you can reserve, where Jeff curates an intimate pizza tasting, creating off-menu and custom items that blow your mind and your taste buds (deep fried or lemon pizza anyone?) This is perfect for a date night our a group activity.

In a world where pizza has become commonplace, Varasano's Pizzeria manages to stand out as a beacon of culinary excellence. If you're a pizza enthusiast or simply someone looking for an extraordinary dining experience, Varasano's is a must-visit. Prepare to have your taste buds tantalized, your expectations exceeded, and your love for pizza redefined. I believe it's time for Varasano's to take its rightful place among the elite pizzerias of the nation. I'd even nominate them for a Bib Gourmand!

LOVE THIS PLACE! First time here and it’s definitely going to be a staple in this household.

I’ve never done a pizza tasting before. This was so cool. Service was fantastic and pizza was phenomenal!

We love this pizza! It's just the best flavor, best consistency, perfectly cooked, light to digest, crust is fantastic and the toppings are the best quality.
We initially had the Brunch Pizza, that has a combo of ingredients that you would never think of putting together. And yet, it was perfection!
Then, recommended by the owner, we tried the Burnt Quattro, which has only toppings we never like.pepperoni, soppressata, pappadew peppers.we were preoccupied and unexpectedly, we loved every bite! The flavors were so balanced, that I enjoyed even the pepperoni pizza! And I hate pepperoni!
Great pizza, nothing else to say!

I recently wet to visit, with my crush of all people and I was so nervous our experience wouldn’t be right but I had NOTHING to worry about, our server Blake was amazing. Attentive, smart, funny, sweet and honestly ID HIRE HIIIIM. She loved it and I loved it, the pizza was rich with freshness like those tomatoes were beautiful and I don’t even like tomatoes!
I wanna go baaaack and I hope Blake is there he’s my server of choice and made the experience even better.

It almost felt like being back in Italy! I had my doubts about the pizza, but the dough here is nothing short of fantastic. We had two pizzas, the veggie and the margherita with pancetta, both of which were excellent. Michael was great, super friendly, and gave us great recommendations. We’ll definitely be back!

This place was tremendous! We had a pizza tasting done by Jeff and we were thoroughly impressed. I am a pizza guy who has sampled all around the state of Georgia and this place is absolutely the best. Varasano's is next level!

Michael was an incredible waiter for our birthday dinner! He was so attentive and so sweet to us. The food was wonderful as always and we had a great night

Had a great time eating delicious pizza! Our waiter was attentive and made our experience excellent.

Truly, splendid dining experience. Never knew how pizza can be elevated to this level. Thank you Jeff and team at Varasano's. Will be back soon for sure.
