Varasano's Pizzeria - Buckhead Menu (2025 Update)
Welcome to Varasano's Pizzeria - Buckhead, a hidden gem located at 2171 Peachtree Rd NE in Atlanta, known for its exceptional pizza crafted with care. Immerse yourself in the cozy ambiance as you explore a menu filled with artisanal offerings. The star of the show is undoubtedly their signature Slice of Heaven, featuring a perfectly baked, sourdough crust that is both crisp and chewy.
When it comes to toppings, simplicity reigns supreme. Varasano’s recommends adding just 1-2 premium toppings like Prosciutto di Parma or Capicola to enhance your pizza without overwhelming the delicate base.
