Emmy Squared Pizza: Athens offers Georgia's best Detroit-style pizza, alongside craveable bites and a full bar featuring specialty cocktails. Join us for Happy Hour Monday–Thursday from 4 PM–6 PM. The top choice for crafted pizza in Georgia.In 2014, Emily and Matt opened their first restaurant in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, with a goal to create quality pies. A trip to Detroit changed everything: they loved the local style, the crispy cheese edge, airy dough, and bold red sauce. They knew pairing this base with chef-inspired toppings would be special.Back in Brooklyn, they began experimenting with organic flour, aged cheeses, fresh tomatoes, and combinations like truffle/mushrooms or pesto/Calabrian chilies, perfecting that crave-worthy cheese crust. In 2016, they unveiled their Detroit-style take with Emmy Squared Pizza. They remain committed to crafting the country's most thoughtful pizzas. We hope you enjoy them!Detroit-Style Soul, Brooklyn Born.

    We were blown away by our first visit to Osteria Olio. The restaurant reached out the day before to ask whose birthday we were celebrating, and while there had special touches for our occasion. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and suggested the perfect bottle of wine for our tastes. The food, wine, and dessert were phenomenal. We WILL be returning!
