Antico Pizza Napoletana.

Antico Pizza Napoletana is the engine of Atlanta’s Little Italy, a no-frills West Midtown institution where the atmosphere is as loud and hot as the wood-fired ovens. Since 2009, the format has remained refreshingly simple: order at the counter from a overhead menu and find a spot at a communal table right in the heart of the kitchen. There are no partitions between the prep station and the dining room, so you eat while watching the pizzaiolos stretch dough and pull blistered pies from the Acunto ovens. The menu is strictly Neapolitan, focusing on imported ingredients and signature recipes like the San Gennaro or the Sophia, topped with mushrooms and truffle oil. For a unique twist, the lasagna pizza arrives on a sheet tray loaded with deconstructed meatballs and ricotta.
