Went on Friday night. Service was excellent. Prices were more than reasonable. The place was packed. My pie was excellent. No, I don’t know JV, but I met him and he was friendly and his recommendations were excellent. At no time did they run out of beer(and the beer was great too). I suggest all you haters go back and try it again. I will.

I just do not like his pizzas.
It is not even him who is making the pizzas. He is too busy in a suit looking pretty to care about the craft.

The Magherita I had last night had the buffala liquified rendering the pizza a soggy trainwreck. The Nucci was great. Our server was a joke….he asked us if we wanted plates, wtf? Then when h brought us silverware, he said “here’s some silverware just in case” In case of what? In case I don’t want to wear this sloppy mess called the Magherita. I don’t think Grimaldi’s would have served a pie like that.

“My uncle, who was there on Friday, complained that his pizza was cold. Instead of heating it up, Varasano told him “It’s better cold, that’s how we make it”.” from Steve on March 30th

My question? Isn’t this pizza supposed to be eaten HOT from A BLAZING OVEN…. and supposedly loses its crispy exterior and “high quality” if it sits long enough to get cold? And, supposedly, Varasano’s doesn’t LIKE takeout and WON’T do delivery for that reason… but Jeff tells customers the quote above? Something makes no sense to me…

Went last night for the all-you-can eat, but they moved it to Monday after 10. Figured I’d eat anyway, and ended up waiting almost an hour. I wasn’t expecting much, considering the wide-range of reviews. I’m also a fan of Fellini’s, and I knew this was a different breed of pizza.

I gotta say, the pizza was spot on. Perfect crispy crust, excellent toppings, and served fresh-out-of-the-oven hot.

The salumi had salty cured meats and minced black olives. Wish there was more sauce to balance the meats, but it was otherwise delicious. The Margherita had perfect ration of crust-cheeze-sauce.

There was a blip in the service, but they more than made up for it.

I’m a fan, and I’ll be back.

From his website-

“Buckhead resident and world-renowned pizza authority, Jeff Varasano”

World renowned pizza authority??? Seriously this guy has an ego bigger than the world itself.

I also found the “Speaks Italian” requirement in his employee search to be ridiculous.

That is unless Buckhead has become the new Ellis Island for newly immigrating Italians.
