Rosa's Pizza

This place is a traditional hole-in-the wall New York style pizza joint. It's cozy and tight like a shotgun shack and kinda grimy, but very popular as a cheap lunch spot. The pre-made slices are good though not particularly exciting, but Stromboli/sausage roll and calzones are amazing. Only a few seats are available in the shop but there are plenty more in the basement down the stairs in the back.

I'm from Pennsylvania I've had great pizza a few time which has ruined pizza for me from a regular chain pizza places. I needed a few pies for kids at The Skills USA competition and I got the 2 slice deal for myself. This is hands down the best pizza I have ever eaten. Only downside is if your trying to drive back to where it is it is a little tight.

I went into Rosa's pizza after being up all night starving. The staff greeted me warmly.even tho I walked in kind of demanding. When I calmed down and got my head together I was able to look at a menu of traditional Italian favorites. I ordered a slice and a calzone with a couple toppings. It was a very good slice and the calzone was packed with flavor. I couldn't even finish the calzone in one setting, as I chatted with a couple of the employees he told me they have been in business for 32 years. I can see why with great food like this.

You cannot go wrong with this NY flavor like pizza in the heart of downtown ATL. It had been 10 years since my last time going and it's still excellent! It has such an organic feel and the pizza is delicious. Prices are in line with inflation but not horrendous. Friendly staff. Just know what you want to order before you get to the front of the line. Will certainly go again.
