The first concept to open in the Centro is Antico Pizza. Simple Italian ingredients that make for one amazing pizza. You may be familiar with the name as it is founded by Giovanni DiPalma who owns the same name pizzeria in Atlanta, voted one of the best pizzas in the US by Epicurious, Food Network and others. Pizza is made to order in a neapolitan oven, making for those charred crusts I love so much. Flour is shipped from Italy as is the olive oil and other regional ingredients, the water is shipped in from Atlanta, guaranteeing the same great taste. I love the fact that you can get your pizza to go with the first "Pizza Window" in the neighborhood or that you can sit in and enjoy with some friends in their beautifully decorated indoor space.
Scheduled to open next in the Centro is Gio's Chicken, Bar Amalfi and Cafe Antico. Bar Amalfi will be an outdoor terrace on their second floor overlooking Collins Ave and Cafe Antico will be located at the beautiful outdoor courtyard area near the main entrance where you will be able to sip on some Lavazza while people watching and enjoying an Italian pastry. Also scheduled to open next year is Cabana 2, an intimate cocktail lounge.
Here are Centro's details so that you can visit their awesome spot: Centro Storico, 1058 Collins Avenue - open daily - Monday to Friday from 11:30 AM until when the “dough runs out." Weekends they open at noon.
