Atwoods Pizza Cafe

This pizzeria is a delightful surprise! Their Neopolitan pies are some of my favorite pizza in Atlanta. Show me your Roni is my indulgence, with pepperoni and sausage. Or the Pepe, with just pepperoni. They're served personal style and even if you think you can't eat the whole pie, it's so good that you probably will! We usually get a salad to balance out the meal, love their garden salad.They're made with high quality ingredients and a perfect crust. We come here at least 1 or 2 times a month, and the place is usually hopping with Georgia Tech students. You probably wouldn't even know this pizzeria is here, tucked in a ground floor corner of the old Biltmore Hotel. But it's definitely worth seeking out, highly recommend!!

This has only happened once in my life before with pizza. I took one bite of their pizza and realized I made a terrible mistake. 1. The pizza I ordered would NEVER be enough to satisfy the greed of my taste buds fully, and I KNEW my diet was instantly ruined for the day. 2. I ordered a LARGER pizza to go (for later), and it never even made it to my fridge. I was tempted to take a little taste and ate the whole thing at the kitchen counter. Forgive me, Lord, I am weak. Lol 3. I ate pizza today like it was Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter all in one, and when I woke up from my binge-eating nap, the only thing that stopped me from getting another was their business hours. The staff, manager, and cooks were excellent, professional, and friendly. They took our order and served the pizzas fast, hot, and well-cut. The basic cheese and pepperoni pizzas were excellent. So good that my picky eight-year-old spontaneously announced how good the pizza was later this evening and she rarely considers a meal after the fact. The Buffalo Chicken pizza was better than any I have tasted. It was smooth, with mild blue cheese undertones, and just the right amount of buffalo sauce The chicken was sliced tender and the BREADING WAS STILL CRUNCHY! It would have been some of the best chicken strips I ever had by themselves, let alone as a pizza topping. The toppings and sauces were balanced perfectly. The crust was thin but not soggy or dry and freshly made. Make no mistake, this was a LOT of food. I am a shoelace under 280 and built like a (retired) defensive end. This pizza was so delicious I ate like when I was powerlifting. Price-wise, it was a steal. I could have fed my whole family (if I didn’t eat like it was my last meal), for less than drive-thru Taco Bell costs. I don’t drink anymore but they had a pizza big enough for two to share and a bottle of wine for $20 as a special on Wednesday evenings. That's 1995 prices, friends. I have eaten food from street vendors to private chef's tables all over the world (all but two continents), and I will remember this pizza. I am not from Atlanta, so this memory will be bittersweet, but I am VERY grateful I stopped in. The garlic knots were very good too, but the pizza was resplendent. Ignore the low reviews. Some people will complain if they find a $100 bill with a ripped corner. IF YOU ARE IN TOWN DO NOT LEAVE WITHOUT TRYING THIS AT LEAST ONCE. Then twice. Then once more on the way out of town. Great work Atwoods! You made a beat-up old veteran (and one beautiful little girl) very happy today. God bless!

We came in after the lunch rush. It was nice and quiet, the cibes were good and fun. My husband recommended this place, and it said it was the best near Georgia Tech. Boy, was he right!! I ordered the Not So Mellow, and my husband got the Sho Me Your Roni. Both were phenomenal!! I was blown away by my pizza. It had mushroom cream, fior di latte, roasted mushrooms, red onion, goat cheese, truffle fig balsamic, and rosemary. The balance of sweet, sour, sweet, salty, and umami had me literally dancing in my seat!!! My husband's was a carnivore delight! It was meaty and not greasy at all!!! It had red sauce, pepperoni, italian sausage, mozzarella-provolone, fior di latte, oregano, and Romano. This is now my top pizza place!!

What a delight to have such a perfect pizza spot right in Midtown, positioned in an ideal location very close to Tech Square and tons of city activity. For pizza as good as they make it, I would pay twice what they charge. Specialty pizza that has a crust that tastes like the oven it's cooked in has stood through both world wars and several fires (REALLY GOOD). I would eat here weekly if I was a resident here, and highly recommend that everyone checks it out.

I have zero complaints about this place! It's a solid spot to grab some really good pizza. The portion size was perfect, and I genuinely enjoyed the freshness of the ingredients. The pizza wasn’t exactly mind-blowing or life-changing, but if you're looking for a cozy place with quality food and a relaxed atmosphere, this is it. What stood out to me was the use of fresh, flavorful toppings paired with a great selection of beer. It’s clear they care about what they’re serving. The service was also attentive and friendly, adding to the overall experience. While it might not be a destination for a "wow" factor, it’s definitely a reliable go-to for a casual meal. If I’m ever in the area again, I’d definitely stop by for another round!

This is seriously some of the best pizza I’ve ever had, and the gluten free crust is solid! And the garlic knots are a must! Great spot if you’re in the area for the art museum.

I tried the mushrooms pizza here ( it’s called mellow to go or something ) the balsamic was too sweet on the pizza but the crust was very crunchy just what you need. It’s a chip vibe not too busy on a Monday evening. 🌱

The pizza here is consistently good pizza--if you like thin crust, full of flavor, and personal pies--all for a great deal! I came and ordered a pie and vine, where you can get a personal pizza and a bottle of wine for $20. I got the 'not so mellow' whereas my friend got the 'chicken coop deville'. The mushroom pizza I got was the perfect pizza for white sauce lovers as well as mushroom fanatics; the chicken BBQ pizza is a combination that's always a hit, and Atwoods delivered their version so well! I specifically loved the balsamic glaze and goat cheese on my not so mellow. This was the perfect place to catch up with a friend while grabbing a drink and a bite. There's quite a bit of seating inside and out with pretty string lights, so it would be a fun casual date for when the weather permits. The pies are made with a lot of love and care, so it is a wait for the pizza, but the service is as swift as possible for these personalized pies. I can't wait to come back and have their garlic knots again--I forgot to order them this last visit!

Hidden gem alert! Stumbled across this perfect little date spot that's connected to the Biltmore at Midtown -- but also has a street entrance, so it's super easy to find. They were playing old style music to match the vibe bringing great energy. The vibe is chef's kiss with big sunny windows and a cozy outdoor seating area that's great for people-watching or catching golden hour The pizza? I got a 12" Margherita pizza -- Hot, delicious, and totally affordable and just $13! Crispy crust and melty cheese with the herbs as a touch of just enough flavor. Loved the casual atmosphere and how chill the whole experience was. Definitely adding this to my go-to list for date nights or quick bites with friends

Delicious pizza joint near the Georgia Tech campus. It's also a reasonable walk from the Fox Theater if you're in the area for a show. My husband and I ate here before a show at the Fox. There's not a ton of seating but they do have a community table with some seating around the edges. You order at the counter before sitting down and you're food is brought to your table when it's ready. We ordered a Caesar salad to share and 2 individual pizzas. My husband ordered the specialty pizza called BEE Me Up Scotty. He really enjoyed it. I decided to make my own pizza with pepperoni, bacon and caramelized onions. I love when the pepperoni curls up when cooked and the onions added a nice sweetness to the pizza. I devoured it all. The salad was good but nothing special in terms of flavor. But I did enjoy the hard boiled egg. We will definitely come back here again!

I ordered the 12" margherita pizza and it was AMAZING! It comes with 6 slices... it could probably feed one if you're pretty hungry or 2 if you're slightly peckish. It was a bit extra crispy but that's how I like it! The service was great! She was helpful and easy to understand. The ambiance was also awesome! The restaurant is inside the Biltmore Estate (or you can come in from the outside.) but I felt fancy walking in. The vibe inside the actual restaurant is nice. They play older music at a volume where you can still have a conversation and the lighting is just right.. not too bright but not too dim. I would definitely come again!

Stopped in on a slow Saturday craving pizza and I must say, pretty solid spot. I ordered the "Bee Me Up Scotty" pie on gf crust bc I 100% believe hot honey honestly belongs on every pie lol. Pizza did not disappoint! I would've loved a crispier crust, but I do know how tricky that is esp with gluten free crusts. Service was great, fast and polite. This pizzeria is nestled on GA Tech's campus, so the vibe definitely gave young, hip, artsy, etc. Lots of tvs playing diff college football games. Also to note, due to location, there's no "on site" parking, however, we parked at the Biltmore's parking deck for a few bucks for an hour or two and walked over. Short walk and hourly parking was super affordable. I'd def return to hangout, watch a game and eat a pie.

I visited here on Tuesday evening for dinner and ordered the BEE Me Up Scotty and Not So Mellow to share. The 8" pizzas are the perfect amount of food for one person. Both pizzas were really good - fresh ingredients and good flavor. My favorite was BEE Me UP Scotty because I loved how the hot honey tasted on the pizza. This is a casual spot where you order and pay at the front before sitting anywhere. The service was great because we were offered water cups without having to ask and the pizzas came out quick. The price was very reasonable for the quality and I plan to come back soon to try other specialty pizzas.

Decent pizza for the price. Im not a pizza connoisseur, but the flavor was all there... but so was the flop. Inattentive service during my visit and expensive drinks, but the pizzas did come out quickly!

College hangout vibe. Small and cozy inside with brick walls. Not a lot of seating and most of it is high top chairs (probably the only negative thing I can say about this place. Being a short girl I despise high top tables). Pizza was wood fired and they had a great selection with some interesting combinations. I got the Not So Mellow and my friend got the Lazy Cat and we split an order of garlic knots. I also ordered a 401 Atwoods Lager which was good but warm (this isn't England, in America we like cold beer). You order at the register and pay and they bring it to you. The service was friendly and the food came out quickly. All in all, a great experience. I recommend.

Great pizza especially since most food in this city is below average. It was a small but nice place. Friendly staff while I waited for my food.

I've been wanting to try this spot out for awhile. I see a lot of folks going in and out. Always smells divine, from the outside. Since it's in the city, the best parking is on the road. Ordering: 2 ways - kiosk, and at the counter. Note, if you want an alcoholic beverage you can't order that from the kiosk. Service: this is where they lose major points. The worker at the counter was having conversations with other employees , not about the food. Then when we ordered our food, they had no order of what food goes with what. Picked up our food, without the drinks. And the food was on the counter and no one to direct us if it was ours. We almost received the wrong order. Just a jumbled mess. Food: small portions. Maybe this is nothing. But I like my salads to have a balance of greens and other assorted toppings. Not the case. The Alfredo lacked sauce and the other red sauce and pasta meal didn't look appetizing. Less than mediocre. I'm not rushing to go back. But maybe I'll give it another shot. All those patrons can't get it wrong.

Out of towner here, decided to visit this place while I was in the area of the college after a quick Yelp search. Good pizza, GREAT garlic knots! I am a sucker for garlic knots, generally just have to try them anywhere I see them, and these were definitely garlicky and buttery. So much so that I found myself lopping up the extra garlic and butter with the crusts of our pizzas. Delicious. We had two pizzas in addition to the knots, the Sho Me Your Roni and BEE Me Up Scotty. We went halfsies on each, a great option for two people to get a pair of personals and some garlic knots. Makes for a filling and inexpensive meal. The Sho Me Your Roni was just good, I would have liked more meat ultimately. Now the BEE Me Up Scotty was fantastic! Toppings were generously applied, and the combination of old world style pepperoni with goat cheese and hot honey was very much the... BEE's KNEES. We also like the vibe of this place, it had a very Manhattan feel to it, almost like a pizza parlor in a subway station. Exposed pipes, lots of tile, but somehow a big ass pizza oven got in there. If I were a student, I'd probably spend a lot of time here working down both the pizza and beer menu. But alas, I'm not of college age anymore. Great job Atwoods, keep doing your thing!

Stayed near Georgia Tech for a conference and the location was too close to pass up. I loved the vibe and convenience. Staff were chill and food was great. Ended up going twice during a two night stay.

Absolutely the worst Pasta Alfredo I ever had! It is made with large rigatoni instead of linguine, but what was worse was literally no sauce , what little there was , was stuck on the bottom of the pan! The Ceasar salad was dry with very little dressing! Service is bad as well!

Fresh baked pizza. Loved the little cafe and sat outside to enjoy my pizza. Service was mediocre, she was not friendly. Despite that, I would come back for the pizza!

If you love mushroom pizza, the not so mellow is for you. It is actually my favorite pizza in the entire world. When I crave pizza, THIS is the pizza I crave. The balsamic glaze, the goat cheese, and the onions, they all complement each other and balance the mushroom out so well. I will say it's a little pricey because the pizzas are not too big :( BUT THEY CAN TAKE ALL MY MONEY BC I LOVE THIS PIZZA WITH ALL MY HEART. The place is a cute college bar vibe, and the pizzas don't take too long. Especially if you order online, they have them sitting warm and ready, so easy!

The pizza was pretty good..I had to reheat because the pizza was cold When delivered and found the crust gets tough. Tasted a cold piece and the crust was good. Once delivered the food looked good but this Establishment does not put stickers on their delivery items like the pizza boxes! So surprising to me! So the delivery person can just open up your food! I don't trust GH like that....Post COVID...all foods should have stickers on them

The pizza arrived lukewarm but was still tasty. It may have been a driver delay as he called confused about the location of the Marriott on Peachtree. Not the restaurant's fault. Also, I did not get a receipt for my order. This was a business trip so that was rather important. I will go into my account to retrieve. I got the Roni which was good. It has a thin crust, not a lot of sauce (which was perfect for me) and sausage. Like I said, even lukewarm it was tasty.

I'm a fan of the pasta - so much that I came here for lunch two days in a row! I can't make any suggestions for parking because I was working temporarily upstairs in The Biltmore where Atwood's Pizza Cafe is located on the ground floor. It was an easy walk, but anyone walking by this restaurant, either indoor or outdoor, could easily overlook this business because the signage isn't that big. I entered both times through the door from the inside hallway. but there's also a door exiting out toward the street. Seating is in the form of long high top tables or high top counters with tall stool seating. A TV monitor tuned to sports and cranked to medium volume provided background noise. From the order counter, customers can view the large menus overhead and can see into the kitchen area. The menu consists of speciality Neapolitan pizzas that can be bought in 8" or 12" sizes. Customers can also build their own pizzas, with each and every topping (and they have a lot of toppings available) adding more cost. Atwood's Pizza Cafe has salads, appetizers, and pasta al forno. Yesterday, for lunch, I ordered their Creamy Alfredo, and today I bought Baked Pomodoro. Both were so delicious and cheesy! The Creamy Alfredo had a lot of garlic (and I love garlic!), and afterward I didn't have to worry about vampires coming around me. The Alfredo wasn't actually creamy, since they baked it just a little longer than normal. Doing this made the cheese dry up a little, but the flavor was outstanding. The Baked Pomodoro I had today was very tasty. Both pasta entrees were baked in a round aluminum bowl that contained a decent amount of pasta. Just know that I highly recommend these two pasta dishes!

The quality, 2/10 the taste 3/10 the customer service 0/0! Establishment (no wonder why the pizza is hidden in the back!4/10 I will never ever step foot in this establishment again!

'Twas delicious! We had the meatball pizza on a cauliflower crust (we were doing a no gluten thing), but I would bet money that the regular crust is even better.

Delicious pizza with lots of options for toppings and excellent salads. Food is ready quickly and is very reasonably priced.

Great little spot without a wait, walk up service, fresh food, Bee Mee up pizza was delicious.

DELISH!! Pizza is fantastic and a great size - perfect for 1. Easily customizable and made fast and fresh. Great to go, especially if you don't want to wait long. Service good as well!

When in Atlanta, get some excellent pizza! Ubereats had tons of options, but I read some reviews and menus and chose this place to bring us three of the tastiest treats I have had in a while. Hubby holds Mellow Mushroom's Holy Shiitake as the king of all pizzas, and was amused at the shade thrown by the Not-So-Mellow. It was good, but a pretender to the throne by comparison. Featuring mushroom cream, fior di latte, roasted mushrooms, red onion, goat cheese, truffle fig balsamic, and rosemary. I am obsessed with BBQ chicken pizza, and the Chicken Coop Deville was fabulous. Loaded with bbq sauce, springer mountain chicken, bacon, cheddar, fontina, red onion, roasted red pepper, fior di latte, parmesan, and cilantro, it was perfectly balanced. The BEE Me Up Scotty was full of the best Italian meats and wonderful cheese. Red sauce, fior di latte, genoa salami, pepperoni, romano, garlic, datil bee awesome hot honey, arugula, and goat cheese combined to bring huge flavor and perfect harmony. The hot honey drizzle made it so delectable I kept going back for more. Hubby detected a licorice flavor that turned him off, but my guess was fennel in the salami and I had no problem with it. More for me! The crust was amazing, with the lovely bubbles that make eating pizza a thrill. I was so happy I chose this place, and will remember them next time I am in the ATL.

Been coming here for years but finally reviewing! Atwoods is always a solid spot for either pickup or dine-in. My most recent visit was a pickup which took them about 20 min to make, so I appreciated the speediness! My friends and I ordered the margherita pizza, garlic knots, and the sun dried tomato pasta. My friend who ordered the pasta said it was delicious! My other friend and I split the margherita pizza and we all shared the garlic knots. The pizza was simple but yummy and comfortably fed both of us and we loved the garlic knots!! Always a go to for pizza in ATL!!

Ordered this place for takeout and it came quickly, pretty good pizza overall. It's Neopolitan style and has plenty of toppings on it. The bread is chewy, it's not too greasy and lots of options. My favorite thing is to add a little bit of hot honey and red pepper flakes, yumm so good. Would definitely come back here again!

Seems like a popular place for students on a Saturday evening around dinner time as a result the food takes a while to come out which makes sense (over 20 minutes for us). There's paid parking on the street and it's very laid back. I do love the idea of personalized pizzas and not having to commit to a full sized one. We got the 8" festival pizza and the 8" magheritta pizza for I would not come here to dine in when the weather is cold outside but it was very nice eating outside on a day with nice weather and would be nice for takeout as well.

It is not often that I give a pizza place in Atlanta massive kudos for food quality. As someone spoiled by NYC, I found the Atwoods pizza to be competitive to what I get back at home, and there were some creative touches too! Hot Honey is a must have add. I only gave this place one star off because some of the furniture is sticky and rickety - not sure if that was a look they were trying to go with, but it made the experience a bit well interesting.

Good food topped off with the best service. Grabbed a quick bite between meetings and found a cute gem. Thanks Cam!!!!

I have one go to pizza option and it's the BEE me up Scotty, it is delicious and the combos are just an explosion of flavors in your mouth. You won't regret getting this pizza.

Only giving 3 stars because the food is tasty. I live next door and have ordered from Atwoods numerous times and more often than not, I am disappointed by the inconsistency of the food. My most recent order, and most likely my last, was a 12" Pepe pizza with EXTRA pepperoni for a grand total of almost $18 dollars. Neapolitan and a mere twelve inches people. There was even less pepperoni than usual despite having paid another $3 for extra pep. I reached out about the situation and never heard back which is usually how it goes with them... Tasty food but not worth the high prices for the lack of substance.

Very enjoyable with welcoming service. Not much on atmosphere unless you just looking to chill in a low key place. Pizza was very good.

Very good pizza spot for a quick bite! We ordered one pizza each, and they came out very quickly! Very happy to find a good personal pizza at around ~$10 in midtown :)

The pizza and garlic knots were very good. The Brussels spouts were amazing! The wings were a disappointment. They were drowning in sauce and the recipe is not the same as before. The staff wasn't the most friendly. They brought the Brussels sides to our table but did not bring the pizza. We happened to go there to ask for something else and they told us our pizza was ready. It's a quick place to have some tasty food but I would avoid the wings if you like crispy wings.

I love their monthly special pizza, the Philly steak. I've ordered it almost every day for the last two weeks and, unbelievably, I'm not tired of it but still enjoy it. What an addictive taste! I sincerely hope the restaurant keeps this as a regular menu item.

I ate here twice while in town recently for work. They have super fast service for the early dinner diner - I ordered online and my order was ready really quickly. I got the calabrian buffalo wings, which were really good and a nice order size (6 wings). I got the hot honey special pizza one time and the Pepe with roasted mushrooms on the next visit, but I think I would have been better off with the regular Pepe (just pepperoni). The hot honey pizza ended up just being sweet with honey but having zero kick - I think they need a hot honey with more kick! And the goat cheese was dry little balls and not good. The roasted mushrooms were okay but didn't add much so I think I would skip in the future. The pepperoni was good and the crust was not too thin and not too thick. The pizza size is good - I could maybe eat one by myself with nothing else, or it would be easy to share and supplement with other items. They have a small interior space with high top tables to eat, and a small patio that had a few people on it both times I was there, but it cleared out when it got hot. Not bad!

The arugula salad was delicious, the best me up Scotty pizza was different( but we love it). Hint ...The tomato sauce in the pizza it is sweet . Pizza dough it's very light:)

Had a Pepperoni pizza, garlic knots, and Caesar salad and EVERYTHING was delicious! Very laid back environment and some outdoor seating. Food was ready quickly too! Definitely recommend.

I would definitely recommend going here over any of the fast food style chains in the area. The specialty pizzas are a must to try. Ambiance was good , not too crowded. Service was excellent.

The food makes my stomach hurt but tastes good, the service is good since you don't really interact with the people, the ambiance is laid back most of the time.

Some of the best pizza in Midtown. The crust is really good. Pizza is always hot and ready at expected time.

I'm from New Jersey so I can get pretty picky about pizza, but Atwoods is probably the best I've had down here. Extremely flavorful, great crust, and the ambience of the place is also a definite plus. Their garlic knots are also delicious. I've always experienced friendly service there, and prices are reasonable for what you're getting. Love Atwoods!

Of Course Atwoods Pizza has the same owner as Nina and Rafi another favorite spot of mine. My girlfriend and I were pleasantly surprised by this place. Has a local hangout vibe. Pizza is Brick Oven style with many toppings. I had the 12 inch Sausage and sweet pepper pizza. One of the best pies I have had. My girlfriend had sausage and pepperoni. I highly recommend this place!

Total college scene. Fire baked pizza. Worn and unclean. Good beer choice. Great for the college crew

such good pizza! it's definitely a hole in the wall vibe, but it's cute! only thing i'm not a fan of is their pasta-- it's dry and not the most flavorful. if you go, i'd definitely stick to the pizza LOL

Once again this place is a great for a quick pizza. Their personal pizzas are enough for two to share. They have a variety of beers to choose from as well. There's seating inside and out, but it's an order at the counter type of place. I always walk here, so parking may be an issue.

My lovely bride stopped by to order takeout - the service is very pleasant and helpful. We ordered the arugula salad, meatballs, and garlic knots for appetizers. My wife loved their Show Me Your Roni pizza on cauliflower crust. My favorite pie is the Bee Me Up Scotty, which had a nice bit of kick to it. The Lazy Cat is a close second. Highly recommended.

Yummy pizza place in midtown! We started with the garlic knots and then got a "bee me up Scotty" and a "lazy cat" pizza. Both were fresh and delicious. The Bee me up has hot honey on it which my boyfriend loves and the lazy cat had a touch of sweetness from the caramelized onions. Affordable dinner at less than $30 for everything!

We came in on a Friday night. Lucked up with a parking spot on the street right by the door. There weren't many people on the inside at the time. Seems like most people take the pizza to go. We orders The Meats pizza and some meatballs that could've been warmer but they were tasty. The pizza was thin, crispy and flavorful. Service was fine. We waited about 15 minutes or so.
