    Hungry Sasquatch & Thai pizza. Can't say which I liked better, but both were awesome. Bring an appetite. The slices are huge, and you'll want to try more than 1. No complaints on the service.

    Hands down my favorite place to eat. Period. Kinda hipster and people smoke outside so eating outside can be tough if you're not a fan of that. The food can take a while but it is WELL worth it.

    Extremely friendly! Try the front outdoor seating if you're alone and want good conversation! I'll definitely return on my next visit to Athens.

    Food was great! the problem was the hosted snapped at us for asking to sit upstairs. Everything would have been fine after that if the hostess let our waiter know she had a table so we had to wait 20

    Great pizza at a great price! This is the original downtown location. The hungry Sasquatch is hard to beat!

    The Hungry Sasquatch is amazing! Also it's open until 2am on some nights.

    Blackened chicken calzone is delicious! I had it with ranch instead of bleu cheese dressing

    If you’re in Athens and you want pizza on Friday night, you’d better get to Transmetropolitan early. If you don’t, you will experience mayhem like you never have. Read more

    Over an hour wait for our pizza that was lukewarm. The waiter didn't come back to check on us- we needed our checks. Instead we got to watch him take shots at the bar while we waited. Not impressed

    Waited in line for 20+ minutes to order pizza. Yummy food but if I had known I had to wait for 45 minutes to eat (in summer with no college kids) I might have reconsidered. Ben and Jerry's next door!

    I love the build a salad and the veggie bowls. Also they make excellent balsamic vinaigrette dressing.

    Food's ok, but the wait to place order is ridiculous. Beer selection kinda sucks, but at least they have some local stuff.

    Don't come hungry, service is slow enough it'll happen while you're here.

    Extremely long wait for lukewarm, watery pasta sauce. Not impressed by the food or the apathetic attitude of the employees.
