Sunnyside Pizzeria

@sunnysidepizzeria A New Favorite?I'm a huge pizza fan, and I've got my go-to spots: Antico inside the perimeter, Atlas in Gainesville, Campania & Crust on the 400 side, and O4W in Duluth on the 85 side. But now, Sunnyside Pizzeria in Sandy Springs has jumped onto my radar, and I can't stop thinking about it. Which spot am I knocking off my list?The place is small, so if you're bringing more than 4 people, make a reservation. I started with a Caesar salad that was perfect--crispy pancetta, thinly cut lettuce, and just the right amount of dressing.Then came the showstopper: the PISTACCHIO pizza--fresh mozz, Italian sausage, pistachio crudo, hot honey, arugula, and shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano. Every bite was perfectly balanced, and the hot honey added just the right kick. I'm seriously considering where this ranks among my all-time favorites.The service was great, and Jeremiah recommended I try their tiramisu ice cream. It was the perfect sweet ending to an amazing meal, I was not expecting such amazing and creamy ice cream.Sunnyside has been open for about two years now. If you go, set a reservation and arrive early for easier parking. Can't wait to go back and see if I can decide where it ranks among my pizza faves! #Rolieats #SunnysidePizzeria #PizzaLover #sandysprings #mustgoback #forscience

We got the lemon pepper wings and the hot honey char pizza. Both were phenomenal. My daughter got the spaghetti and loved that as well, it tastes like an elevated Spaghetti-o's which in my mind is high praise! They also have a selection of gelato so save room for dessert.The dining space is a little small so if you want a seat get there early. Everyone on the staff was super cool and welcoming. Jeremiah is the man, go with whatever he recommends.

Stumbling across this pizzeria during an afternoon of shopping, I decided to give it a try. The staff that seat you, are a little disorganized, as they handle both dining and pick up orders. I ordered what I thought to be a small pistachio pizza, but it actually turned out to be enough for 2-3 people, so of course, I had a to go box. I would have preferred more actual pistachios and sausage to fully appreciate the contrast and flavor. However, this choice was very mild and delicate - good but delicate with sparse toppings (a definite turn-off). The beverage selection ranges from soda to wine, but no full bar. Also, dining area is neatly polished with neutral colors and suits both small and larger groups. The star of my visit was definitely the gelato! Would I revisit? It's possible.

Very good, expert service and delicious options! Clean and trendy place too. In a fun part of Sandy Springs and plenty of parking. We showed up with 15+ in our group and they went to work in order to accommodate us. Will return!

Sunnyside is delicious!! This pizza is so amazing. Everything we tried was so different and good. We absolutely loved the Burrata board!! It was awesome. The service here was also great. They were attentive and helped us decide what to order. You will love this place definitely check it out!!

Such a good neighborhood spot! Pizzas are fresh and delicious and the small spot is full of charm. Seating is limited so prepare to carry out. Parking is tight, especially at lunchtime, but there is ample parking across the street in a large deck. Pizzas are lovingly prepared and so tasty!!

We have at Sunnyside Pizzeria now a couple of times, and we really like it.They have a really cute restaurant in the atmosphere is great. It's a Neapolitan style pizzeria. My favorite pizza there is the hot honey pizza with pepperoni. It's delicious!My husband has had both the Mexicana and the Diavola, and he enjoyed both. We love the crust and that it's wood fired. They also serve pastas and more.The staff who work there have always been nice. And the kitchen is in the main restaurant, so it's cool that you can see the chefs prepare the pizza.I love that you can make a reservation. Plus, they also serve gelato!

So we came in on a Saturday around 5/6 PM. We were asked did we have a reservation, we responded "No." and we were immediately told it would be a 45 minutes wait. We were a little pressed for time anyways but decided to order carryout. (S/N: I was kinda irritated after the fact. Bc she said it was a 45 minute wait. I pulled up my Opentable app and there were reservations for the next hour+ in 15 minute increments.) But we took two menus and sat down. We were approached by a gentlemen and he asked have we been helped yet. And we told him, yes unfortunately there is a 45 minute wait. In less than five minutes he came back and asked if we would mind sitting at the bar, we did not.We sat down at the bar. It was a little tight but we were just happy to be seated. The first thing we noticed peering into the kitchen was the diversity of the staff. We absolutely LOVED that. We were close enough to hear their banter and they all seemed to get along very well. At the bar, you will see an open kitchen and it's very enjoyable to watch. My spouse marveled at the workers' proficiency taking the pizzas in and out of the oven and swirling for the pasta dishes. Every single pasta dish looked immaculate. We were defiantly contemplating ordering pasta but did not. Hopefully we are in the area again.We end up ordering the lemon-pepper wing for an appetizer. They are tossed in lemon-pepper, fresh lemon and butter. They were a great starter. Super fresh and juicy. The menu says they are fried but it did not feel gluttonous. I honestly thought they were baked or oven-baked before revisiting the menu. I do wish they had additional flavors. My spouse end up putting some honey hot on them. She enjoyed that.She had the VEGGIE LOVERS add pepperoni and I had the HOT HONEY CHAR. They use wood fire brick oven so the pizzas come out SUPER fast. I dont think we waited more than 10 minute after the wings arrived before our pizza came. We were still eating the wings and i had half a beer remaining if I remember properly. Unfortunately, her pizza was accidentally rang in at VEGGIES + sausage. FORTUNATELY, we let them know and she had a fresh pizza in literally three minutes. Her pizza in her words: "Magically delicious. The vegetable were seasoned and cooked to perfection." My pizza, I enjoyed throughly. I think I will order the PEPPERONI next time. The ricotta on my pizza was still a bit cool bc the pizzas are in the over for less than two minutes. So that was poor planning on my behalf. The hot honey meshes well with the "cup & char" pepperonis and the ricotta. Outside of the first 5 minutes of our visit, everything was perfect. I didn't not realize the gentleman that helped us was the owner. (I assume he is, he is featured on the Instagram.) But he has earned a couple of fans from Augusta. We were thoroughly impressed with how he handled the staff, his attentiveness (which had rubbed off on the staff), his person-ability. This is not an area we frequent when we visit the metro Atlanta but I know we won't mind going a little off-course to visit again.

We were in the area and thought we'd take a chance. Native New Jerseyans here, we've had a pizza or two. This little place delivers on its' pizza!The ambiance is lovely and our waiter steered us away from a table that he thought might've too cold with a blower near by. Our Margherita pie was excellent. The 12" pie is perfect for 2 for lunch and the price was right at $15.00. They have a large assortment of beverages, including wine and beer. This will be our new stop when visiting doctors in the Sandy Springs area!

The pistachio gelato was amazing, but I found plastics in it. Be careful when you eat it.
