Sit out on Marietta Street and eat some superb pie that comes out of a classic Italian brick oven. The meatball subs and fried green tomatoes are as good as you’ll find anywhere in the city. Read more

The pizza is just delicious. The base tomato sauce is so tasty. Probably the closest to a genuine Italian we’ve had in the States so far. Staff are really friendly and smiley. Definitely coming back!

Delicious garlic knots. Really enjoyed the Bianca and the Arugula & Prosciutto (the cheese was so tasty!) but their ovens aren't quite hot enough and don't create that lovely charred crust.

Went for company event where one if each pizza was ordered. Not a single negative review in the bunch! Oh, and be sure to start with the garlic bread knots. Awesome staff and vibe with all 80s music!

Max’s pizza is famous for many reasons: the crispy-on-the-outside, chewy-on-the-inside crust; their super secret special red sauce; house made mozzarella; and the fresher than fresh ingredients. Read more

The pizza is great. Thin crispy crust and great toppings. Stay away from the shrimp scampi. It was overcooked, fishy, and didn't taste very good. The sweet tea is excellent.

Park across the street in the public parking deck for free up to 3 hours. Make sure you get your parking ticket validated by the server.

Came in on a Tuesday around 1:30 , great service , decently priced . My favorite was the chalk art on the walls. Awesome atmosphere ! And the staff works well together.

This seasoned pizza vet thinks the pizza here is some of the best outside the Northeast in the country. Make it a point to visit each time I'm in ATL.

I can’t say that the pizza here is going to win the war, but Max’s, as an overall experience, is loads of fun. Read more

They'll give your kid a piece of dough to play with and shape, then they'll bake it in the pizza oven.

The worst chicken Parmesan I've ever had, but the service is good and quick, even with a HUGE group of people. The pizza is very good though!
Deborah GelaudeMay 9, 2010
Salads are pretty much just lettuce. Pizzas are the best. Pepperoni is good. Family pack is an excellent deal.
