I absolutely love their garbage pizza, the taste, the ingredients, best ever pizza! I would rather drive there to eat it not bring it home. The atmosphere is quaint, unique, like you are in Italy. The service was fine and we were the only two because we got there at 4 pm when they opened. I am not a pizza girl and would normally eat pizza every two months. Actually, I would go back monthly at least.

OMG, OMG, OMG! We had the large garbage pizza thin crust and it was so delicious, crispy on the bottom and the flavor of the pizza, wow! We arrived around 4 pm when they opened. No parking issues at all. The atmosphere was quaint, unique and loved hearing Italian music. I will only go back there for their pizza but I do want to try another dinner dish. If your in Atwater go there, I highly recommend it!Parking: No issues

A local favorite. Mom and Pop pizza place. Cool old building with indoor and outdoor seating and a bar. The pizza is great! It's the knife and fork type of pizza for me. We always get a couple of garlic bread baskets, a classic pepperoni and a combo. If my mom is joining us we better get the pepperoni and pineapple too. Yeah it's a little weird sounding but it's actually pretty good. The service is great. The whole experience is a throwback to the good old days. Pop is the back slinging pizzas, Mom working the register and the kids bringing out the food and drinks. I love it! Delicious food, fantastic service, Awesome times!

Is it common practice to send burnt pizzas home to call in customers? We've been long time customers and this certainly isn't what we expected.

Use to go here all the time back in the day and the pizza was the best in the area so thought I'd try it again. Pizza was dry and was very skimpy on the cheese and toppings not like I remember before. I paid a lot for a large pizza here but now I know for sure I will just be going to little Caesar's pizza. I could have got two pizza with plenty of toppings and cheese for what I paid for one large.. I use to love this place but they are skimming people and charging full price. I no longer recommend this restaurant.

I've lived here all my life and I'm also ashamed of myself for not ever coming until this evening! This place is amazing. Its private, service is prompt and food was fresh and phenomenal. The salad was crispy and the chicken marsala was delicious. The chicken alfredo with fettuccini was spot on. I look forward to coming here again and again to find my favorite dish off their menu!

An absolute gem of an old school Italian joint in Atwater. Hands down, no question, hang-it-up, stop asking the best pizza in Atwater & Merced and it’s not even close.

quite possibly the best pizza I’ve had in my lifeI had their pepperoni pizza and the ratio of bread to sauce is perfect, incredibly soft yet slightly crispy dough is to die for5 stars all around, a gem to the Atwater Community

?love Tarys pizza. Although I noticed a change in the pizza dough. It is a little too flat. What happened? I loved the bubbles in the dough.
Atmosphere: Outside front is wack! Looks like a broken down or closed business. Inside is tight and looks like a family run/traditional restaurant. They have seating outside in the back and it is great for families and huge parties! There is an open grass area that is perfect for kids to run around. Looks just like a backyard. Customer service: Neither good or bad. The workers do their job. Food does take a bit long, but what can we do. They're nice about refilling out water and switching out any dirty plates and utensils we get. Food: Pastas and fried food were simple and okay, but the pizza and bread sticks were perfection. Overall: Going back for the pizzas only!!!

GREAT Italian food! Servers are quick and attentive. Since everything is made fresh it can take a little while for your order to be ready. Worth the wait - this is authentic Italian. Hand made pasta and sauces, plus the bread is amazing.
