Stone Mountain Pizza Cafe

One of the best experiences I have had in recent memory. To experience the southern charm, one needs to leave Atlanta just a little and reach here. The place had a retro 80s vibe with the music, arcade games and diner style booths. Our server was very friendly, and the food was amazing. I have been to many retro theme restaurants, where they try to hard to role play, but not this place. It was in its element, genuine, relaxing and comforting. The garlic butter pretzels were like the soothing lotion on the burnt out and tired mind. The pizza was awesome, and the prices were genuine enough to make me a regular here. Had a good, relaxing time here. See you soon!

I had high hopes for this pizza spot, but unfortunately, my experience fell short. The dough was bland and noticeably undercooked, lacking the crispiness and flavor that make a great pizza base. On top of that, the sheer amount of toppings overwhelmed the pizza, making it difficult to eat without a fork—a far cry from the handheld slice I was expecting. While I appreciate generous portions, balance is key, and this pizza missed the mark.

Stone Mountain Pizza Cafe is a laid back neighborhood gem with great food and friendly service. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, making it a perfect place for families, friends, or a quick bite after a hike at the park. The pizza is the star here. The crust has the right amount of crisp and chew, and the toppings are fresh and generous. Whether you like classic pepperoni or something more loaded like the supreme, every slice is satisfying. The sauce has great flavor without being too salty or sweet. Service is always friendly and fast. The staff makes you feel like a regular, even if it is your first visit. They also keep the place clean and the vibe relaxed. If you are in the Stone Mountain area and want good pizza in a comfortable setting, this place is worth stopping in. Great for dine in or takeout.

Very good pizza at an affordable price! The pizza slices are BIG and loaded with toppings. They had a decent selection of beer on tap (most of them hoppsy), and my friends and I really enjoyed it.

Saw this place a few times and never stopped to support! I had a regular pepperoni large which I had to have cut into squares. I must say that the pizza had fresh ingredients and was cooked very well. My order was right and most of all the Kitchen was Clean!!! Will sit down with a crowd next time I indulge on my cheat day. Very satisfied with the 1st time experience

Called to place an order Togo the guy who took the order very short with us. Once we arrived to grab the pizza the lady up front was super nice! She showed us the just the pizza it looked fine so we left. The pizza is not good at all it taste like a frozen pizza and the mozzarella pretzels were just awful the amount of grease/butter was unreal!!! Highly disappointed and for the price we expected better. It was $27 for a medium pizza and 4 pretzels definitely know next time we’re in the area to stay clear of this place

Great find near Stone Mountain Park! Excellent pizza place! Mozzarella pretzels were great. We enjoyed the calzone with delicious housemade marinara. Service was wonderful too! And it's very affordable! We will be back next time we are in town!

Great food. Great people work there. And the place is just all around awesome. The sauce is fantastic. Pizza, calzone, whatever you get will probably be better then you expected.

My family and I came here and started with the mozzarella pretzels (made with their pizza dough) and marinara sauce. My family said, "Lots of mozzarella", "I like how soft they are", "I don't normally like marinara, but that was really good". "Marinara tasted great but the big chunks of tomatoes made it difficult to dip" I order the baked parmigiana with chicken tenders on honey wheat. My husband ordered the calzone with pepperoni, sausage, and mushrooms. My daughter order cheese and spinach ravioli with sausage links. My son order cheese ravioli with meatballs. Both kids (ha ha they are 27 & 22) like the ravioli, but my autistic son didn't care for the texture as it was al dente. My daughter thought it was perfect. My husband and daughter both loved the sausage, said it had a good kick to it. The chicken parmesan was flavorful, the only criticism I have is that I couldn't pick it up to eat it because it was so full and it was served on paper so when I cut into it, the moistened paper tore apart and ended up in my sandwich. After a couple of bites I moved the whole thing to a plate and it was fine after that. The restaurant is clean and well lit. There was plenty of room between tables and there were lots of families and we felt very comfortable there. There were televisions with various sports playing, but they were not obtrusive. Our server, Katy, was friendly, professional and attentive. We did not have to wait for anything with Katy and the crew making sure our food was out quickly and our drinks were always full.

The food is always great here and the staff is always great. I go pretty often with my partner and we have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is very laid back and is great to go to on the weekend or middle of the week. Love it!!

I'm not sure how i forgot to take pictures but i usually have some good photos to add for my reviews , Anywho I came here yesterday for pizza before heading to the park and it was very busy we got here around 6:15 and it was barely anywhere to sit and a few dirty tables so you couldn't sit. We finally found us a table and asked the busboy if he can just clean it for us since nobody came directly to the front to look for us a seat . The busser a very young boy who seemed to have been doing most of the tables was really working hard which was not fair but he did help us out you can also tell he was very tired running from table to table. Anywho i wish i had a photo of our pizza which took a long time to come out but I don't have a picture of it we had the meat lovers large pizza with added peppers and onions, 3 glasses of sweet tea and one pink lemonade. The sweet tea was not the best but the pink lemonade was ok . The pizza was a little oily and soon as you pick it up all the toppings and cheese were falling right off but at least it was a decent size pizza . I didn't really see any Decor .

Food was delicious and service was super friendly. Restaurant and bathrooms were clean and well maintained. We got the Greek salad, garlic pretzels, and a large pepperoni pizza. Convenient when visiting Stone Mountain. Would come back.

Pizza was very good , literally just wanted a good slice of cheese pizza. I also had their mild wings & a garlic pretzel which I think is just cáliz bread but it was so yummy ! Paid $21.ish for a slice, wings and garlic pretzel and a soda The service was phenomenal, checked in , would come and clean up my table as I would finish . The ambiance was cool. They have a bar area! The only thing I feel they could adjust is the jazz music maybe have a mix of different music.

Stopped to eat on our way back to Mississippi and really enjoyed our meal! The spaghetti, garlic bread, mozzarella pretzels, and meatball sub were all very good! A restaurant we would enjoy coming back to! The Birthday Girl waitress was very good taking care of us!

Very reliable People love their pizza. Other dishes are good too! Been eating there off and on for 15+ years!

Been going here for years. Love the people and the pizza. It's a great place for community.

This is a regular spot for myself and my family. We're here weekly and we always enjoy our visit. The staff is always friendly. We ordered garlic pretzels, they are usually very good when they are not overcooked. We also enjoyed a large meat lovers pizza with extra cheese on one half and the other half with pepperoni and mushrooms. A few times our pizza has come out over cooked however usually if you let them know not to over cook it it will come out perfect. This is the place for me, we love the seating arrangement with lots of booths.

Party of 7 - 3 adults and 4 hangry teens. Went there right after the haunted house. Mind you we did try to eat before at "Stoned Pizza" and that was a mess, see that review so we were extra hungry. Service was friendly and service was quick. Our salads came out fast along with our drinks. Pizza, calzone, wings, chicken subs were all tasty and filled up this hungry crowd. Excellent food and service! Thank you!

Service was great food was fast and enjoyable. This restaurant is near great shopping. We will definitely return next time camp at Stone Mountain Campground.

They have a lunch special that's awesome and the staff was really nice! The bar is big and it's great to watch sports on the big screens!

I've had lunch here many times since I worked near them for several years I enjoyed their food very much

Blah. Average pizza. Definitely not as good as I had hoped. Thick puffy dough ok sauce.

I like this place, I love being able to order a large thin slice of pizza, NY style, good pizza & the salad is tasty as well!

well first the sad part is I only been there once but my experience was great pizza great service very nice clean place for pizza and the family I will definitely be making the second or third more trips to this establishment.

Just had the Mushroom cheese steak. Spicier than I'm accustomed too. WOW, IT IS SOOOO GOOD. Family loved the meatball sub.

I came here with my girlfriend around 2:30 PM so I grab the two cheese slices the lunch special but she had the barbecue chicken slice. Both options were really good. The mozzarella pretzel was also amazing and we had the Oreo cheesecake. Needless to say this place is five stars, and it is not crowded at all.

Excellent food have been back many times would recommend the friends and family I especially love the pizza and wings

Live roaches running around inside two of the parmesan cheese shakers at the bar. I'm not understanding how are they able to continue to serve food? I have a video of the incident.

Good quality pizza and their calzones are DELICIOUS . Staff is always friendly. I don't have any complaints

My experience was brief and simple with this restaurant. I called in 2 slices for pick up- one with one topping and the other with two toppings. The order was ready faster than expected which was nice because I didn't wait very long. The two topping slice and skimpy on one of the toppings. Despite, the pizza was pretty good and better than the last time I ate here years ago. I'll probably return for a quick, quality "by the slice" which is rare outside of the gas stations.

Brittany C was my super server tonight. Service was A-1000!!! I was greeted with a warm smile that continued throughout the entire night. The restaurant itself is cool and relaxing and extremely clean. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. I was so impressed, that after my dinner I stayed and had some drinks also. This Pizza Cafe is a hidden gem. Thank you guys for having me and providing me with another location to rave about.

My wife and I have been frequenting Pizza Cafe for about 10 years and have really noticed a change for the worse the past couple of years. The latest bad experience was about a week ago when we ordered a pizza by phone for carry out. I ordered a 3 topping piizza with onions, green peppers and Italian sausage. First of all the pizza was especially dry due to very little or no sauce. The toppings were very skimpy to say the least. I don't know what they have substituted for their Italian sausage that they used to use but it not like any Italian sausage we've ever eaten. On top of that you could have put the total sausage topping in a soup spoon. There wasn't a total of a half of cup of toppings on the entire pizza. Now this is not a $5.99 carry out pizza from Pizza Hut... this is a $24.00 plus pizza. It's not the first bad food order we've had recently, just the latest. We've had many good meals there in the past but it's time to move on.

It was soo good the pizza's are perfect and the wings too i had to take the left overs 100% recommend

Best pizza I've had in a long time also the Greek salad was fresh, enjoyed it all. Not open today which was a bummer

We really enjoyed the food, the service, and the service. A very affordable dinner out!

The food is fresh and fabulous their marinara sauce is the best made fresh from scratch. The lasagne with a whole roll of garlic bread beats Olive Garden and many other places.

We ordered the meat lovers added mushrooms, it was good, took a while to get it to the table but overall a good experience.

Went here for my moms 69 bday. Love that they have huge pizza by the slice!!! Wish more places offered this. Gigantic slices and huge Calzones! Excellent marinara sauce. Best part of the meal. The pizza looked OK with generous toppings. Greek salad was tasty could have used more olives. Calzone was alright, the ground beef was different tasting but they give you a lot of marinara sauce. Cheese steak sub was disappointing. The flavor wasn't there and it was lacking ingredients. Even my son didn't like it. I was overall not impressed. Should have ordered a slice. As we were leaving they were getting decently busy. It clearly is a regular spot for the older local crowd. I'm definitely missing the appeal.

Food is always above average. Really good wings and pizza. Service is always good. Great quality for the price.

We ate there for dinner last Friday. Started with the garlic pretzels which tasted good but were overcooked by a minute or so. A little too hard/crunchy for our liking. We also got a 16" Meat Lover pizza which we really enjoyed. I thought the crust on that was much better. Not overcooked & tasted good. All the toppings were tasty & seemed fresh. Our server did a decent job considering how crowded they were. We'll return.

My server Averleigh was wonderful. The service was quick, we had our drinks right away. She was very attentive and checked on us often. I had the Greek salad, the lettuce was crisp and the tomatos were very ripe. My friend had the bacon pizza and she really enjoyed that as well. Overall would definitely come back, service was definitely a 10 out of 10. Stop by and see Averleigh if you get the chance!

Their white pie is sooo yummy! My favorite type of pizza has always been a white pie so I'm kind of a white pie connoisseur if I do say so myself! Their chicken tenders are pretty good too!

Awesome pizza. Way better than any chain pizza joint. I love the double dough joints. They are like pan pizzas

Best wing recipe! I get the hot and ask to have barbecue added. Nice and crispy. Great vodka martinis. Ok, it's a pizza place, however, I love the spaghetti and the lasagna. I try to go frequently.

Food is always good and always fresh. Excellent pizza and other items, such as wings and subs. Full bar with an excellent bar tender if that is your thing. Never disappointed when I dine here!!

Pretty good pizza by the slice and the waitress was excellent. Place was packed on a Friday night, but they have plenty of parking. I read the reviews about their garlic knots and I tried the version topped with mozzarella. I was a little disappointed, the marinara was good, but the knots were bland and the cheese wasn't melted well. As you can see from my pics, it looks like they use basic cheese slices and put the knots under the broiler for a minute. I don't know why, but I expected more. I'd still return to grab a couple of slices.

Order the pretzels as an appetizer! Also order extra sauce and maybe even an extra garlic better! A huge portion for the price and can't be beat. Our server was in the back on her phone through half of the night. We were sat by a table where she can be seen on her phone, not a good look. She was nice enough though. The tuna salad plate as soooooooo dry. The sandwiches do not come with a side. The spaghetti was a great portion. The marinara is absolutely delicious ! Ordering a slice of pizza with fresh toppings might mean that slice of pizza is hours old, with some new toppings there in the oven for a few minutes. Bacon is lace thin.....

I stopped here a few weeks ago, right after my son and I visited Stone Mountain. I drive past this place all the time and really never paid much attention to it. We were hungry, so we stopped by. Pizza Cafe Of Stone Mountain is right off Hwy 78 on the way back from Stone Mountain park. The service here was good during our visit and the slices were decent. I had a Greek salad and two cheese slices and my son had a slice of sausage. His sausage seemed like it was just tossed on the slice and when he picked it up all of it fell off onto the plate. They probably reheat slices of cheese and toss on the toppings as slices are ordered here. Just a suggestion, they might want to add extra cheese so this does not happen. Either way though, the pizza was okay. We ordered a pretzel as well, that was tasty too, just eat it quick, as it will get hard. Overall, I'd eat here again if I was in the area, but would not drive over here just for pizza. I'd give this a solid three stars. [Review #391] (37th Review of 2016)

If you are approaching this place from the north side of Hwy 78, you will need to cross under the highway. This wasn't obvious from the map apps. Once we found it, parking was easy. It is located on the edge of a large strip mall / plaza. They had no trouble accommodating our party of 6 ~ early on a Sunday evening. Their menu selection was fairly broad, and once all of our party was seated we had no trouble in ordering enough to satisfy everyone. Several of us split a pie, while some had slices or pasta. Service was a bit spotty, but not bad. The pizza was definitely above-average. Everyone left full. It is a bit of a drive for us, but if I were in the area at meal-time, I would consider a return visit.

Gross. Waitress walking around with her vape-pen in her waitress belt, mouthpiece resting against straws. Restaurant is dingy, and smells like old grease, makes you gag.

Support your local restaurants. Pizza cafe still offering great food. We always enjoy a fresh salad with our slice of pizza. They are providing social distance dining seating and safety protocols.

Greek Salad was very fresh and good. Meat pizza slice was so good had to get second slice. Wife got veg sub and homemade chips. She said it was fresh and fabulous. Will visit again soon.

Pretty good pizza. Service is good. The Garlic pretzels are wonderful. Been here 6-7 times. Never had one problem here. Always some kind of specials running

I love this place. Great pizza, calzones. great garlic parmesan pretzels, spaghetti and great service. I've been a long time customer since 1998. Its been a few years since I have patronized due to covid. I just went back and it's as good as it has ever been.

Another chance given and I wasn't disappointed. Service was attentive, food was good. I had the Avalanche pizza, one of our party had Teriyaki wings that weren't that great, but they remade them with a smile. Would definitely recommend this as a good local pizza joint.

One of the best parts of our trip today! Started with the garlic and mozzarella pretzels. Both were very good as the dough tasted great and was cooked perfectly . I ordered the lasagna which was full of flavor and the tomato sauce was amazing. I also tried the calzone one son ordered it was amazing . Again perfect dough with the mozzarella and pepperoni inside . Also tried my other son's slice of sausage pizza. The dough was again perfect and the sausage tasted very good as well with a little kick. Lastly we split the Cannoli which was spot on as well...tasted great. The service was really good too. One of my favorite pizza places to date! I would definitely come back.

I'm from Upstate NY and I've been living in GA since 2011, Stone Mountain for approximately 4 years. Been dying for some good NY style pizza and thanks to YELP, I came across this place. By far....THE BEST PIZZA & WINGS IVE HAD IN GA!!! I've ordered twice in the last month and both times my family and I were extremely pleased. The pepperoni pizza was huge, thin crust, salty(how I like it) and just plain ole DELICIOUS. The only thing is, they're kind of pricey but I was satisfied so....

Stopped by for a quick lunch on the way to ATL. We LOVED the Primo pizza with artichokes added! And our waitress was really thoughtful and efficient given our time limitations. What a surprise on the fly. Will definitely return!
