    We visited Johnny Brusco’s in my daughters neighborhood. The pizza is good. I give it three stars which bests most take out pizzas which I rate one or two stars tops. I’m not a big fan of chicken wings but found their chicken wings to be better than most places I’ve visited on Atlanta. The beer selection is good, the seating is comfortable and the service is friendly.

    Pizza was great! Not overstretched or overcooked! Sauce has good flavor as well and the Stromboili was perfect. Will be back to try the pasta for sure! Trinity was awesome and said we were going to love it. She was correct!

    This was my first time ordering here. I got pickup and got the Parma Rosa Pasta with Meatballs (from the fall specials menu) that came with a salad and got the homemade ranch dressing. At pickup the waitress asked if I’d had this before and I said no. She said it was REALLY good so I had high hopes, and I can confirm this pasta IS really good. The sauce was truly tasty. The salad was fresh and the meatballs were tasty too! I’ll definitely be coming back here.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re looking for the best kept secret in town, it’s Johnny Brusco’s. Every week we take over the patio, and honestly, it feels like home. David is our guy—he takes care of us from start to finish, knows our orders before we do, and somehow manages to keep both the adults and the kids happy (a true superpower). Half-price wine? Dangerous. Delicious pizza? Irresistible. Add in good friends and good vibes, and suddenly Wednesday is the best day of the week. Our kids think it’s their personal playground, and David never makes us feel bad about it—he actually makes it more fun. Bottom line: great food, better service, and the kind of atmosphere you wish every local spot had. Thanks to Johnny Brusco’s (and David, the legend), we don’t just eat pizza—we celebrate life, every single week.
