Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

My friends come here way too much since we live close by and just walk (so we don't have to deal with parking). We always sit down at Normal Bar and have the pizza brought to us, which is a nice feature. The pizza is thin, floppy, and greasy (ideal to me, maybe not to others). One time it took a really long time, so they comped us a round of drinks at Normal, which was awesome. I'm a fan, but I can see how if you didn't like that style of pizza this place wouldn't be for you (you can ask them to cook the crust more than usual if that's your thing). My only complaint is that the big pizzas are a little expensive, but split between a group of people, it's not too bad.

Just dropped $100 taking 5 people to eat at Automatic. Cool place, and I will admit the food was good, but not worth $20 per person. Part of the problem is their policy of charging double for toppings if you split toppings. In all my days, no where in the pizza eating world have I ever encountered that! And it's not on the menu. And when I asked, "can we split topings" they said sure. So, for example, one was a large ($18) with 2 topings, split half basil+tomato on one side and spinach+sausage on the other side. We were charged for 4 topings at $1.90 each instead of 2. Same happened on a second pizza. To my mind, I was overcharged 4 topings or about $8 with tax. When I asked the server about the charge he said that was how they did it and he could not refund the overcharge. So, I'll give 4 stars for the food, 1 star for parking and comfort, 1 star for value, and 1 star for customer service. That averages out around 2 overall. I won't be going back. $100 for pizza for 5? Save your money and get better on all counts at DePalmas, Pepino's, Little Italy, TransMet...

We spent $28 on a large pizza with 3 toppings and a can of coke. It took no less than an hour after ordering before we got it. I understand sometimes it's busy (must have been to-go orders cause hardly anyone was there), but there was no acknowledgement of how long we had to wait or any updates given until we asked for one 55 mins after waiting. For me, all is forgiven with an explanation or apology, but none was given. By that point we were really hungry, so you'd think it would have tasted amazing. Nope. The crust is too salty. The outside was crispy but the whole center was soggy. I doubt I'll be returning but if I do return I won't be eating the pizza. It looked like there were some other options -- sandwiches and calzones. Save your money and your time and go to Little Italy or Peppino's. The building is cool. The location is great but I don't see how they will stay in business with the terrible service. Good job on the marketing though. It was a buzz all over nothing

Parking may be tight but it was not crowded. I got two slices with several toppings. It was just $11 including tip. I thought the pizza was very good. I don't know how previous reviews rate bad service. You order at the counter. They bring the pizza to you. The person that brought out my food offered to get silverware and everyone working there was very pleasant. Pizza is similar in quality to Transmetropolitan but this place allows you to order slices. Transmet doesn't let you order slices at night.

We waited for almost an hour for our pizza. Pizza was pretty good but nothing special. I guess it's worth going when it's not busy.

We had a superb Calzone and a Meatball sandwich. Both were exceptional !!!! Best in Athens! This former gas station was rated very high by The Flagpole, and the proof was in the eating. Great food, great decor and great staff ....... Plus beer and wine and can eat inside or outside.

I went for the first time to Automatic Pizza last night after hearing great things about the food. I heard the wait is a bit long and they were correct. I called in a pick-up and took my time getting there and still had a good wait ahead of me. I noticed the limited space in and outside of this very hip establishment and wondered how they accommodated on busy evenings/days.....I think if they replaced the 4 huge outside tables with more smaller patio tables they would benefit from the extra sitting. The pizza was the best I have had in Athens in a long while....of course everyone has their on preference but it was to my liking .....it was a little salty and the crust was thin and chewy....and who doesn't like lot's of cheese (please don't answer that)!! Great topping options and they even accommodated me with my special request. The prices are a bit on the high side but a great pizza splurge! I will for sure be CALLING in more orders but not sure I would want to sit and wait. Great job guys!!

I went here today for the first time and I have to say I wasn't impressed. First of all, I ordered a small whole pizza while my friends both ordered slices. While I can understand the slices coming out first, I had to wait at least 20 mins longer (maybe a total of 30 mins) for my pizza. And once I got the pizza, it was ok, but too much cheese for me. I at least prefer equal cheese to sauce, but more so more sauce than cheese. And the pizza was overcooked!

Tried a whole pie this time. Same thing -- total mush. Everything kept sliding off. The toppings were MUCH better proportioned this time but totally inedible. I've heard people complain about Little Italy being greasy -- the pizza from here is covered in a thick pool of grease, much more so than anywhere else in town. I don't mind a little pizza grease, but seriously, it's ridiculous. Everyone that ate some of this pizza felt completely horrible for hours afterwards, as well. I had two slices (pretty normal) and thought I was dying. Even a five-slice Pizza Hut binge has never made me feel *that* bad. I thought after they'd been open awhile they'd get it together, but I was wrong. I definitely won't be back this time.

Funky, eclectic pizza joint in Normaltown neighborhood. My favorite pizza so far in Athens. Unique toppings, New York-style crust...very tasty! Perfect craft beer list. Grab som friends and be sure to sit outside at one of the picnic tables...youll love watching the neighborhood traffic go by.
(5)Kelly K.
First two times were really good. Last two times were really not. The slices actually had to much topping so they were luke warm and soggy. Whole pie with sausage peppers and onions was again over topped...over cheesed and super soggy. Guys cooking were yelling and singing and not paying attention to cooking. Great potential but so far not very consistent. Hope the get better soon.

This is my favorite pizza spot in Athens. The pizza is great and it's fun to sit outside and eat when the weather is nice. Also, if you order a pizza, you can go next door to Normal Bar, and they'll bring you the pizza with no delivery charge.

I go here multiple times a week. Best slice in town. I usually go for Literally's Pizza downtown on Lumpkin St when I have my slice hankering, but Automatic Pizza is top of the top notches. It caters to the neighborhood and people walking first and foremost, so year, if parking it a factor for you in how good pizza is then I can see how you wouldn't like this place. I love it though. Dinosaurs and attractive employees always helps.

I've been here twice now. Both times, we lucked out with a great parking space in their tiny lot, but if not, I'd imagine the parking would be a little annoying like most places around Normaltown. Here's the thing. The first time we went, it was the first week they were open so I wanted to cut them some slack. The space is cool but tiny, so all the tables inside were full. The line was at the door, and it moved very slowly. After I ordered my slice and my bf ordered a calzone, we were given a plastic animal in lieu of a number, which was a nice touch. It was just a slightly stressful situation. Even with the slow-moving line, all the tables were occupied once we placed our order. There were tables outside, but it was freezing and the outside area wasn't covered and there were no heat lamps. My slice came out, and we were still standing awkwardly by the door with a slice of pizza and our plastic dog, scanning the room for anybody who looked like they were about to finish up their meal. We finally snagged a table with another couple after 30 minutes of waiting. Onto the food: the pizza was good but not great. It looked slightly anemic, like it needed a couple minutes more in the oven. The calzone was good but the ricotta was really watery and seeped out of calzone as soon as you cut into it, and it was served with cold marinara sauce which was off-putting. Our second visit was a little better. We got a prime parking spot, the line moved faster, but all the tables were filled again. Once we got our animal, a table was open and we grabbed it immediately. It was exhilarating, to say the least. I got a slice again, and my boyfriend got the calzone again. The food was also improved this time. My slice still needed a little more time in the oven. The calzone seemed like it had more color, but still had watery ricotta. This time, the marinara sauce was warm. Overall, I would come back to Automatic if I happened to be around Normaltown. Pizza and calzone were fine, not the best I've had, but it's cheap. Hopefully, they invest in some heat lamps and cover up the outdoor area in the fall and winter so it's a little less crazy trying to get a table. Or just get it to-go.

We had a great pizza, great service, cold beer. Cool rehab of an old gas station, outdoor seating in Normaltown. No complaints. We will be back.

The pizza is a little greasy, kind of messy, the crust is thin and kind of floppy, and the cheese oozes and will slide of if you are careless handling your slice. It is a more slutty, primal pizza than you will find at Ted's or Transmet, but it is completely delicious and I can't get enough of it. This is not the kind of pizza you take home to momma, it is the kind that rocks your world and you have to have more of when you wake up in the morning. Whatever cheese blend they use is perfection, and the crust doesn't fill you up with dough so you can really attack it. I'm glad I live near this place and plan to eat there a lot. Also, I found the service to be very good, and the plastic animal you get is fun and gives you something to play with while you wait.
