Instead of limiting themselves to Neapolitan- or New York-style pizzas, brothers Jason and Hugh Connerty decided that they were more interested in combining the characteristics they liked from each style to create a truly unique pizza experience at Ammazza in the Old Fourth Ward. That began with three-day-risen dough cooked in their 900-degree-F wood-fired oven, but also meant not limiting themselves or their menu to ingredients from a single region in Italy — Ammazza makes their own fresh mozzarella daily and uses meats cured and prepared by The Spotted Trotter in Kirkwood (and yes, count sprinkles for the kid’s pie among non-Italian region derived ingredients). And whether you order the Margherita, the sausage-laden Ammazzare, or one of the other 14 pizzas on the menu, the result has been one of the South’s most successful pizza spots, and a true Atlanta favorite. — Arthur Bovino, 8/27/2014

Named one of the The Daily Meal's 101 Best Pizzas in America in 2014.

  • The Terra was amazing: wild mushrooms, mozzarella, goat cheese, basil and truffle oil. Delicious.

  • Order the meatballs!!!
    Kelly | 2012-10-01 18:30:34
  • Start with the Polpette & Insalata di Basil. Then the Carne and Bolognese pizzas followed by the Torta Caprese and the Italian donuts. Try a few of the wines on tap and you'll be spoiled for life!

  • The insalata di basil, a lightly dressed tangle of field greens with artichokes, olives, and goat cheese, is a genuine upgrade from most pizza parlor attempts at salad.

  • Kids pizza has edible glitter on it. Big enough for kids to share.
    Kimberly | 2012-10-28 19:47:33

    Marcus | 2012-09-22 20:37:57
  • The Margherita Pizza and the flourless chocolate cake are total winners!
    @HeyJK | 2012-09-22 20:27:16
  • There's more than one place for top-tier Neapolitan-style pizza in this town. Favorite pies include the Inferno with sopressata and peppers and the Ammazzare with Italian sausage and Vidalia onions.
    Eater | 2016-01-28 17:48:56
  • Bright acidity from a side of Ammazza's tomato sauce, served hot, serves to balance the gooey richness.
    Creative Loafing Atlanta | 2014-08-05 11:38:29
  • Sit and order at the bar. Inferno pizza!
    Carole | 2013-10-03 19:59:35

  • The Inferno isn't as intimidating as it sounds. Super delish.
    Mariam | 2013-03-05 20:39:37
  • Definitely get here early. St. Bernardus, insalata di basil, and Terra = the winningest of combos.
    Chelsie | 2013-02-15 17:34:45
  • Not open for lunch
    Daniel | 2012-11-30 12:53:53
  • Absolutely delicious pizza in a hip, casual environment. Soft and perfectly charred crust, chewy mozzarella. And also a great list of local brews.
