Word on the street is that Johnny DeAngelo is going to make another run at things and is opening a new location of NY Pizza and Pasta on Jones Creek. Anybody know anything about it?

Is this the place going up in the old Arby’s building? Seems like it’s been in construction for forever.

No but I can predict that they will charge a premium price for a mediocre product if they are under the same management

My chums(many live in Jones Creek area) & I were very loyal customers, and used to buy all his $100 gets $200 cards,etc..

I liked him, but he is sorta BSC, treated staff questionably at times, and quite frankly excelled at a time when guys like he, and Omar at Roma,etc..were the only Mama Marino/Gino's pizza, and FDL alternatives..

I don't remember his pizzas being as good as Red Zeppelin nor Rocca. But, will still give him some biz when he opens..

BR is still a very lean Pizza town.

That’s the name of it but I don’t think Johnny DeAngelo is doing it but I could be wrong. It’s the guys that have La Contea on Jefferson is what I have been told.

So what are the best pizza places in BR now? Moving there and haven’t really been around in 10 years.

City Slice is my favorite at the moment. The crust is perfectly chewy and the toppings are great. Drink prices suck but if we're just talking pizza then it's great. Smoked buffalo wings are damn good too.

I used to eat his pizza all the time at the old place on Jones Creek...when it first opened, it was really good...as time went on, you could tell he was cutting costs on ingredients and the pizza went way down hill.

Last time I went in there, he wasn’t running the AC and I knew he was finished...too bad. I hope the new joint lasts.

I recently saw Johnny eating at Bistro Italia on Coursey... maybe he was sizing up the competition?
