Today was beautiful out...pretty windy, but still a gorgeous day to be outdoors. We decided to go to lunch at a little place called Fellini's. There are a few locations in Atlanta, but we decided to go to the one on Peachtree right near us. They have patio seating and supposedly delicious pizza so it was a no brainer.
You walk in and it's completely casual. There was a counter with a girl and a cash register and an obnoxiously large sign with their menu posted above her. As you can see, the prices are great and they offer everything in single sized portions. This is awesome because we hate when you go to pizza places and they only offer medium and large pizzas. You then get forced to settle on ingredients that everyone likes so you can all split the same pizza. Not here. You have the choice to order one of their created pizzas or you can basically build your own.
We took the liberty of trying their "created" pizzas so we could judge whether you should stick to those or making your own. We ordered the vegetarian, the white, the hawaiian, and the special. (we figured the spinach and mushroom would kind of be like the veggie...with less veggies)
After you pay, you get your drinks and then either sit inside or head out to the patio. We obviously went for the patio. They have a beautiful fountain and over 20 tables outside. The tables aren't on top of each other so you don't feel like your neighbor is eavesdropping on every word you say. Our pizzas probably came out in about 5-10 minutes. We ordered a total of 4 slices to split between the two of us, making it two slices each.
Here is the veggie. We were really happy to see the green olives on the pizza. A lot of places don't carry green olives. All of the veggies were crisp and fresh. Good flavor for a veggie, especially after we added some red pepper flakes.
Now here's the pizza they are famous for: the white pizza. Although it's called white, it still comes with red sauce when you order it as a slice. Chunks of fresh garlic, multiple kinds of white cheeses and italian spices sprinkled on top. This pizza is phenomenal and you should probably try it...even if you're normally a meat pizza kind of person.
This here is the hawaiin. Fresh ham and pineapple and just the right amount of sauce and cheese. This was definitely tasty.
Last but not least, the special. This slice is loaded with pepperoni, mushrooms, italian sausage, onions, meatballs, green peppers, black olives, green olives and extra cheese. It was a lot of toppings for the crust, so we ate it with a knife and fork. The meats were all delicious and distinguishable and the pizza just had an overall perfect taste of agreement between the toppings. An excellent "everything" kind of pizza. The crust was also seasoned really well for all of them, the kind of crust you can eat on it's own with no dipping sauce.
Here's one of our little sample platters. We were each able to finish about 2 and a 1/2 of our mini slices, equating to about 1 and 1/2 normal slices. A guy could easily put down 2-3 we're sure, but 1 slice and maybe one of their side salads would probably be good for us next time.
Don't worry, we took our extras home and a few hours later they made excellent cold pizza leftovers. yum.
