Little Azio

This location has closed. No fixtures left in building. Closed sometime in Jan or Feb 2015

Good telephone service, great pizza and fresh tasteful ingredients a rarity in this neck of the woods. It pay$ to receive more to get quality. No more fast and ready made pizzas with substitute cheese. We will definitely order again from this establishment.

I’ve been coming to this location for years and the service gets better every single time. The owner, chefs and servers are some of the kindest people you’ll ever meet.
The menu is extremely diverse and when ever I try something new, I’m always happy I did. From salads, to gluten-​free pizzas, to meatball subs, to penne pesto chicken… They’ve got it all!
Quick story just to show how great their service is: I walked in around 730 PM and ordered GF penne pesto chicken, then I sat down and opened my computer to do some work. About 15 minutes later, Jerry (awesome server there!) brought me my food. As always, the food was delicious. I went back to doing my work and got in the zone. Next thing I know, Jerry tapped me on the shoulder and said, «Jordan I’m about to lock up man. I just wanted to let you know.» I looked at my phone and it said 9:45. I thought they closed at 10 and then I found out they closed at 9 PM. I profusely apologize to Jerry because I have been in the restaurant industry before and I know it is rude to stay that late after they close, but he was so kind about it and told me that he had no issue with me staying. Most employees at other restaurants would have complain but Jerry had a great attitude. This is a great example of why I will always be a customer here.

Fantastic place with incredible service and wonderful food. They always treat us like VIP. I try something new every week and I love it.

Absolutely delicious food and extremely friendly staff! I visited with my mom when I first moved to the area and have gone back many times since. Some of the girls there lack experience, but that’s not uncommon and there are others that make up for it 10 fold. I’ve tried at least half of the menu and the meatballs are still my favorite thing by far!

I’m giving this 4 stars. Food was pretty good the service was very basic. My lunch selection today was chicken panini with a side caesar salad. The lunch was very large portions. You will get plenty full thats for sure. I love the total set up of this place looks small from the outside, but once inside, it’s very spacious. It has a cool brick oven with a bar around it which you are more than welcome to eat at. There is also an outside seating area. Overall really good place. You should definitely look to try it.

As many Unilocalers suggested I came here for the pizza. I ordered the Wild Mushroom Truffle Pizza and an order of Calamari. The pizza was very flavorful and the crust was not too crispy as many thin crusts but had just enough chew. The calamari was pretty good too. I did unfortunately bite into an unseeded fried jalapeño which left my mouth burning but nothing a few sips of water couldn’t handle. The server was very friendly and even came to fix my tv as he saw I was having a little trouble. Since this was my first time here, I did use a scoutmob deal but would definitely come back without one.

This place is disgusting. We came here because we thought we would have a good experience since we always had a nice one from Scout Mob. The only good thing about this place is the t.v. which is basically on every table. The service wasn’t all that great either. I’m a foodie… This is not the place to go. Pizza hut or papa John’s will taste so much better.

Really cute little place… I worry that the location keeps them from the business they deserve. Give them a try! Really nice pizza and pasta selection and a nice patio.

I’m giving this restaurant two stars because my friend and I were the ONLY two people in there and almost all the tables around us were trashed. The people that work in there don’t like to clean off tables I guess. It was really weird. We sat there eating our food and waiting for someone to eventually come around and remove all the dirty dishes, napkins, and wipe off the tables. It never happened. Employees were doing nothing. Weird vibe, awkward.

This is one of favorite ‘go-​to’ places to get away from everyone at the office! The service is always very welcoming and I do like the thin crusted pizza.
Seems I always order the same thing… Pesto Genoa Pizza. Its good and consistent. I should probably try other items.
It doesn’t hurt that they believe in the power of Scoutmob, either. Thanks!

The wait time for our pizza at lunch was UNACCEPTABLE. Every single person in the restaurant got their food before us and finished. It took them about 30 – 35 minutes to make our Meatlovers pizza.
So why the 4 star ranking for this place? Because this is the BEST MEATLOVERS PIZZA YOU’LL EVER EAT. This particular location gave us alot of meat it tasted amazing.
I don’t care for this location but I’ll always buy a Little Azio Meatlovers pizza :)

Worst gluten free pizza ever. Overpriced and honestly I could have made a microwave pizza and it would’ve tasted better. I can’t speak on their other menu items, but I won’t be back.

This is absolutely one of our go-​to places. The restaurant has made every effort to make waiting painless — including individual TVS at every table (and two big screens on the wall). They’ve usually got some books, and crayons too. They’ve got big booths, a nice patio, and our favorite, the counter in front of the brick pizza oven. My 2 yo likes to watch the fire and watch the man making pizza.
Their pizza is really one of my favorites in the area — we are not papa john’s half a pound of crust people. I don’t particularly like Marcos. For reference. Generally its thin crust but not particularly crispy. You don’t have to stick to the menu, but they’ve got a dozen «specialty» pizzas, we’ve tried most — to mixed success (the bbq chicken would be our favorite but for a too sweet sauce, the atomica probably took it’s place, and the giardinara is really awesome for a veggie pizza. oh and the salad pizza is an interesting thing. good, but not every time good). I’ve also had the pastas, it’s a large portion, the turkey ragu sauce is great. I could probably rattle off the menu by heart, other than little eccentricities like the too sweet bbq sauce, I have enjoyed basically everything.
pro tip, unless you really want different styles of pizza. the large costs less than twice as much as two smalls. but I’m pretty sure it’s a LOT more food, and also the crust is a little less thin and more bubbly — which I like better. We go for the large now every time, and take home half a pizza. It works out better.

Good food at a fair price!
The reviews on here are all over the place from harsh to love so I had to go back today to see for myself what all the complaining was about on here. I timed the order and for two large bowls of pasta the wait was about 12 minutes which is not that long for fresh to order. The staff was nice and no attitude so I think the ones people do not like are no longer there or quit? Go back again and try it out people. This place is clean and might I add a 100 on the health food score! This is not a white linen place so you place an order, take a number, get your own drinks and they bring the food to you. Also you can watch cable TV at the booth that is just for your table. They have a great covered patio. Everyone is welcome here … Just saying go check them out.

Giardini pizza is the bomb diggity!

I checked this place out for lunch since it’s close to my office and was also on Scoutmob. I was less than impressed. This was my first time to any Little Azio location so I naturally had some questions about the menu but the lady taking my order was on auto-​pilot and cut me off before I could even finish speaking. Okay, strike one.
Bad service can sometimes be redeemed with good food but, in this case the food was strike two. I ordered a hummus wrap with a house salad as my side. The wrap was lacking flavor and also sitting/​soaking in the salad dressing that had run from my salad. The salad dressing (their house vinigarette) was sweet for some reason and I didnt care for it at all.
This was a miss for me. Maybe I would have a better experience at another location or if I ordered something different? I probably would not be willing to try though. First impressions are lasting ones.

Thin crust pizza place here… wherever we live, Wifey and I find a thin crust pizza place… and this is our choice (so far) for the Alpharetta/​Roswell/​Norcross area. The pizzas are well made (my fav is Barbecue Chicken)…and the crust is very good.
Unfortunately, we are on a healthy kick… so might not be visiting as often… but…if you are in the area, you cannot go wrong here…

After church one Sunday, a friend of mine and I decided that for lunch, we should use one of the many Scoutmob deals that are out there. We saw that Little Azio wasn’t too far away, so we made our way over there around 1 pm.
At first glance when you walk inside, it looks like a sit-​down restaurant with waiter service. However, I quickly realized that you are supposed to order at the counter, pay, and then sit at a table with your order number. Then, when the food is ready, an employee brings the food over to you.
We wanted to share one pasta and one pizza, so I chose the Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken while my friend ordered the Meat Lovers pizza. Their pastas range in cost from $ 7.25 to $ 8.95. For the menu prices, you pick a pasta and the sauce that you want. However, if you want to add meat or seafood to it, it will cost you an extra $ 2.95 to $ 6. So it can get a little pricey.
The food came out fairly quickly, probably after only about 10 minutes or so. But the restaurant wasn’t busy at the time anyway, so we weren’t too surprised.
* Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken ($ 8.95+$ 2.95 for chicken = $ 11.90) — As soon as I saw the pasta dish, I was already a little let down. It didn’t look very saucy, it actually looked a bit dry. Boo. It was dry and a little bland, but it helped to add some grated Parmesan cheese to it. Seriously, Olive Garden’s version is a little more expensive but they give you a larger portion and it tastes WAY better. Although the pasta was disappointing, I appreciated the toasted bread that came with it.
* Meat Lovers Pizza ($ 10.95) — Little Azio’s pizzas are 12″ thin crust pizzas that are baked to order. The Meat Lovers is topped with sausage, ham, salami, pepperoni, meatballs, tomato sauce, fontina, mozzarella. I’m not a fan of thin crust pizzas because I like my pizza crust thick and chewy, not crunchy. However, this pizza was decent — and it totally out-​shined the pasta.
Overall, Little Azio gets 3 stars — for it’s quick service, cool mini TVs at each table, and «OK» thin crust pizza. But I’m glad we had Scoutmob’s 50% off deal because honestly, I don’t think the food is worth the menu prices that they normally charge. I may return if they’re offering another deal, but I will probably stick to my beloved Pizza Hut or try one of Atlanta’s best pizza places rated by Unilocal if I am craving pizza.

I’ve been meaning to try this place but since there’s a scoutmob, we decided to go now. I’ve never been to a Little Azio so I was a little surprised it was an order and pay at the counter, and then sit where they bring you the food.
FOOD: I had the special which is the fried grouper panini sandwich with a side of green salad. The salad is just greens with olives, onions, and peppers with a side of ranch dressing. The sandwich is a little bland, but very meaty. The bread was awesome!
