The local leaders of Mister O1 Extraordinary Pizza, a chain of pizza restaurants, said they’re bringing the unique eatery to Buckhead and Sandy Springs to introduce residents to its “revolutionary” pies.
“Mister O1 is a revolutionary pizzeria founded by internationally acclaimed chef Renato Viola, whose extraordinary talent earned him an O1 Visa for artistic ability,” Miguel Blatt and Daniel Scala, who along with Brandon Weitz are Mister O1’s Georgia partners, said in an email. “With a commitment to quality and consistency, Mister O1 crafts artisanal, thin-crust pizzas using premium ingredients—imported from Italy or locally sourced—and a signature 72-hour dough fermentation process. The result is a light, flavorful, and truly extraordinary pizza experience.”
Mister O1 opened its first Georgia location in Sandy Springs, in the former General Muir space, on March 11. It will open its second location on Lenox Road in Buckhead in early June. Based in Miami, Mister O1 will have 29 locations nationwide once the Buckhead restaurant opens, with most in Florida but some in Texas. It was included in Michelin’s “Recommended” Miami restaurants list in 2022.
Blatt and Scala said they plan to open more metro Atlanta locations in middle to late 2025.
“Mister O1’s expansion into Atlanta’s Sandy Springs and Buckhead was driven by a mix of strategic growth, community appeal, and a passion for bringing our unique pizza experience to new audiences,” they said. “Atlanta’s vibrant food scene, strong sense of community, and appreciation for high-quality, artisanal cuisine made it a natural next step for us.”
Blatt and Scala added that they chose Georgia and metro Atlanta because of its recent growth, which has attracted “a diverse and food-savvy population.”
When asked why they chose Sandy Springs and Buckhead as their first Georgia locations, they said, “Sandy Springs is a thriving, family friendly community with a strong dining culture, making it the perfect place to establish a presence. Buckhead is known for its upscale lifestyle, vibrant nightlife, and appreciation for top-tier culinary experiences—an ideal match for our brand.”
Also, Blatt previously lived in Atlanta, and was excited to return to the city.
“Our move into Atlanta represents more than just expansion—it’s about sharing our passion for great pizza, artful craftsmanship, and a welcoming experience with new communities,” Blatt and Scala said. “We can’t wait to be a part of the Atlanta food scene and create a place where people come together over great food.”
Mister O1 offers pizza-cooking classes in its Miami and Dallas locations, and the Georgia partners said one of the new Atlanta locations will present those classes soon. Blatt and Scala said you can follow their social media channels to get details once they’re released.
