Stopped into this pizza place for lunch while I was on my lunch break. I've eaten here about 5 times already prior to writing this review. Every time I've gone in, I've only ordered their pepperoni pizza and/ or their bbq chicken pizza. This time I wanted to try something completely different, so I asked the owner, Pooja, what she recommended outside of the typical American style pizzas. She immediately pointed me to their Samosa pizza and their Butter Chicken pizza which were both Indian inspired concoctions. I had no idea what they would taste like, however, my taste buds wanted something that they had never tasted before so I decided to order a slice of each. They have a deal which includes two slices of pizza and a drink which is $9.49 including tax.
Let me tell you, I am SOOOOOO glad I took her up on her recommendations! These pizzas were deliciously mouth watering.
When you bite into the Samosa pizza the first flavor your taste buds will experience is a delectable sweetness from the Tamarind sauce drizzled on top of the pizza! As you chew you start to feel a slight kick in the back of the throat from the heat of the cilantro chutney sauce, however, it is a subtle heat that only hits you toward the end! I typically don't eat indian food, because alot of it is spicy, however, this pizza was the perfect blend of sweetness and heat that makes your belly thank you for treating it right! Oh, did I mention that this pizza is a vegetarian pizza for all you healthy eaters out there!
The Butter Chicken pizza is more of a curry based pizza. It is definitely more on the lighter side in my opinion. The butter chicken sauce that is mixed in tastes like, well, butter, with a milder, sweeter gravy flavor/ texture. It compliments the diced chicken and cilantro very well for a perfect light flavor!
Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed the Samosa pizza more out of the two, but they were both very delicious and unique compared to the regular styled pizzas you can get anywhere. I will say that the only downside to this pizza shop is that they advertise that they sell "New York style" pizzas. Unfortunately, that is not so. The slices are not as big as a new york pizza slice and the pizza dough underneath is crispier compared to the real way a New York style pizza should be cooked. New York pizzas are known for being huge, cheap and the dough should not be crispy. The dough should flop down when you pick it up! Well, there is one more downside that I took into account. The price of their deals went up by more then a $1 since the last time I went in. The two slices and a drink deal used to be $7.29, however, now the price is $8.87 before tax. Not sure why they hiked the price up, but I do take that into consideration.
Nonetheless, neither of these take away from the simple fact that this pizza location still makes some great tasting pizzas. I will definitely be adding this place into my lunch break rotation for Windward Parkway! Keep up the excellent...

I really feel bamboozled, but it's my own fault for wishing so bad that my favorite pizza spot from Orlando was here near Atlanta. I mixed up "Flippers Pizzeria" chains in Orlando with this place. I even asked the lady at the counter if they were affiliated. She said yes, but I'm pretty sure there was a language barrier. I should have stood on business and walked out. Instead, I decided to check their menu since my hopes were high. Pricey mistake. I searched for pictures on the menu and things weren't looking like they should. I stumbled across peperoni rolls...ok that's a good sign. Oven baked wings.. ok, things may not be so bad after all. I wanted a large pizza, but it was too risky. I ordered the wings and rolls only. The lady that took my order was extremely nice, the food didn't take long after ordered. But I was taken back a little by the food when it arrived. Check out photos of what I wanted vs. what I got. I feel like a customer that goes to a salon and show the stylist a picture of exactly what I want and she says, " Yes, I can do that," but the final result isn't even close. The pizza rolls were fresh but greasy and overfilled with cheese with a thin shell of what seemed like dough surrounding everything. The bbq wings were oven baked and fresh but the taste was awful...I think it's the BBQ sauce they use. The prices definitely need to come down to reflect the quality of the food served. The lady was super nice... that's it. I wouldn't try this...

This place serves great pizzas for vegetarians. I have been living in this area for almost 4 years now and I never had a chance to try this place. I used to think that this is like one of the NY style pizza places. But my wife's cousin visited this place when he was here, he told us that this place serves Samosa Pizza and Paneer Tikka flavored pizza. I was not that much intrigued that time. Today me and my wife were looking for a dinner place and we went to this place. We ordered two slice combo, one of Paneer Tikka and second of Samosa. We were patiently waiting for our food. When the slices arrived, the aroma of the slices made it so tempting. We couldn't wait to take a bite and as soon as we took a bite we both looked at each other and we were in awe of the flavor and the taste of the pizza. It was thumbs up to both the flavors on that first bite. Trust me these pizza slices have put the veggie pizzas from other outlets to shame.
We will be definitely coming back and recommending this place to all our vegetarians and non-vegetarians ( those who like tandoori chicken) friends Please give this place a try. It...
