Firewall — Restaurant in Atlanta

Amazing food by folks who obviously love and absolutely kick ass at what they do. If you possess even the slightest hint of culinary curiosity, an appreciation for layered, high quality delicious flavors, or an affinity for Middle Eastern and Mediterranean (Israeli-inspired) cuisine, then you MUST try Firewall.

Back story... my husband and I take food seriously. We research, we travel, we experiment. One evening, following a deep dive into the art of wood-fired pizza, Justin found himself craving that unmistakable smoky, charred perfection. Enter Firewall. A quick browse through their menu confirmed what any (starving) foodie instinctively knows: these people understand food, and if it is executed well, we will be making our way through their entire menu.

Ironically, despite our initial pizza-driven mission that night, we found ourselves unable to resist their hummus and a few of their sandwiches first. Fast forward a year, and we’ve had (and loved!) everything on the menu—except for two pizzas we haven't had yet (which, rest assured, will not be neglected for long). I order the hummus and extra extra veg every single time. Even their cookies are delicious ffs and we are so so lucky to have them down the street from us!

TL;DR — If you truly appreciate well-executed food, I challenge you to find even one thing here that doesn’t impress.

EDIT: one pizza left on the menu and the Rancher did...

I really enjoyed this place. The customer service was great and the food came out fast. I tried a sandwich, two pizzas, and a hummus bowl.

My favorite of everything was the hummus bowl.Definitely recommend. I did not even come to get the hummus bowl but after being provided a sample, I could not resist. It was delicious. The hummus alone is really flavorful. However, it was worth it to get the bowl for the bread and veggies. The fresh bread smelled amazing and was seasoned. The pickled vegetables really set the hummus apart. The flavors are spectacular. I added garlic confit which isn’t do much. Next time I’ll try the chicken on it.

I tried the short rib pizza and the spinach pizza. Both were different and unique. I liked the flavors of the short rib pizza. It is greasy but not too bad. The spinach pizza is a dry pizza. I like trying different/new things. I only took a bite of that pizza so I will have to edit my review once I’ve had a chance to fully try the pizza.

The sandwich I had was the one with pork and greens- the Southern Italian. It did not have a lot of greens but it was full of meat. Seasoned! It was flavorful! The top part of the bread was a little hard to chew for me. It was worth trying.

I would definitely go back to try other...

Really?! $40 for burnt pizza. Okay came back and added two stars because hummus bowl is awesome. But I should never have been served a burnt pizza

REPLY To the owners who don’t know how to take criticism that’s factual and accurate!

I added the photo of the bill taken off my receipt so argue with my bank! And the pizza was not charred; I included a photo. it was literally burnt. take responsibility for the product that you serve your customers. this could’ve been over with a simple I’m sorry and normally our pizzas are not served this way or something like that. Instead you have a disgusting attitude so not only will I not be coming back for the pizza but SCREW your hummus bowl! Yes, I removed those two stars.

Oh, and look at their responses to reviews they don’t like; that’ll give you a clue at how professional they are not! On top of that if you look at the negative reviews most of them are about burnt pizza and his rude attitude.

UPDATE He removed his reply that accused me of not telling the truth about how much I was charged for my meal so he wouldn’t look bad. I hope his business burns to the ground. And Tip for PICKING up an...
