Max’s Coal Oven Pizzeria is Now Open in the Luckie Marietta District
Concentrics Restaurants announced the opening of its newest restaurant Max’s Coal Oven Pizzeria on Monday, June 29, 2009. The third Concentrics venture and partnership with Legacy Property Group in downtown Atlanta’s Luckie Marietta District.
The restaurant’s signature feature is a genuine coal-burning oven, a hallmark of New York City pizzerias. The oven heats up to 1,000 degrees. In addition to producing genuine New York flavor, the coal oven promotes environmental sustainability by burning anthracite coal. One of the cleanest burning fossil fuels, anthracite is abundant in the United States. Max’s defining fixture, the oven recaptures the feel of the original pizzerias of the early 1900s. In a historic building with original brick walls from the 1900s, Max’s captures the feel of traditional Brooklyn, Soho and West Village pizzerias.
Executive Chef Nick Oltarsh, a native of New York City, is heading up the kitchen at Max’s.
