Bottom Line: I would recommend this restaurant. Great pizza and flavor.

Atmosphere: Low, red-light ambience. Fairly quiet so you can enjoy conversation with your companions. Tables are fairly spaced apart. standard bar/pizzeria vibe. They have a nice gag where you write anything on a dollar bill and they let you staple it anywhere on the walls/ceilings/booth frames.

How it works: You have a choice between a $20 small (12") pizza or a $25 large (18") pizza. You choose either Italian red sauce or alfredo sauce. Each comes with three free toppings, and they have a very nice, uniqute list of toppings to choose from. They charge $1.99 for each additional topping. One catch: The cheese counts as a topping.

Food: Nothing beats Brooklyn, but this NY Style pizza was far better than any pizza of the same kind in Atlanta.

We got a large pizza with Italian red sauce, mozzarella cheese, and spinach. On one half, I had them put fresh basil and crimini mushrooms while my companion got pepperoni on her half. This was legit pepperoni. Large, flavorful slices, not that Dominos stuff. Another note: toppings on half of the pizza is still counted/charged as one topping.

The Pizza came out piping hot with fresh ingredients and an amazing cheese pull as you attempt to take a slice. The cheese pull was so satisfying that I wish I got a picture of it. Nice flop, good thickness, great flavor. One note: the center of the pizza crust will feel the slightest bit too soft/floppy. This somehow becomes crispier after it's been sitting for a minute or so.

I'll reiterate, it's really only two free toppings after you add the cheese which I'm used to coming standard on any pizza. This was a downside to this restaurant.

Service: I wish our waitress came by more often, but other than that, she was very polite. Food could have came out a bit sooner, but it didn't take a ridiculous amount of time.

Overall: I would recommend this restaurant if you are a tourist. Great flavor, great crust, fresh ingredients, and overall affordable for how many people each...

Excited to place an order with Vinny's 3 pizza's and wings however, the excitement was elimated as soon as I went to pick up the order. The first pizza was 1/2 cheese and half canadian bacon the pizza was made with 1/2 cheese and the other 1/2 was literally just bread, light sauce, and canadian bacon no cheese whatsoever. When this was brought to Ruth's attention her first reaction was to tell me I placed the order wrong. Then she assumed I was an uber driver as the order was placed via Uber for pick up and she stated "Your just an uber driver what does it matter anyway" ( I'm not an uber driver just a paying customer) as she continued to attempt to justify the ridiculous attitude and childish behavior she displayed instead of acknowledgeing the order was made incorrectly. She aggressively snatched the pizza out of my hands and slammed the to-go window (unable to get a photo at this point). Opened the window to say "you over paid for the order anyway by placing it with Uber." WTH Ruth.... Uber is advertising for Vinny's and that is how I found your location!!!!! The second pizza was ordered with alfredo sauce and the pizza was disappointingly dry. The third pizza was hamburger, jalapeno, and cheddar honestly it was Ok. The wings were ok they probably would have been better if they were warm/hot. This was a simple order that cost over $130.00 which turned into a horrible experience with Vinny's. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS LOCATION. Order mishap maybe however, the ability to resolve the issue without attempting to curse at your customers shows you should not be in a management position Ruth. Due to the escalated confrontation lets just say we left with a partial order as I would not want anyone to remake an order I paid for with that type of attitude. We ended up ordering pizza from Mimmo's which was half the price and a more authentic flavor than what we received from...
