Took my 15-year-old son here while the Georgia/ Georgia tech game was going on, game had already started so we had the place to ourself! which was awesome! Plenty of TVs to watch the game the food was great! We got the bacon and cheese curly fries and chicken bacon ranch calzone and lemon pepper wings and it was all great and good portions! Great price, great selection of beer or wine if you'd like. My 15-year-old said we definitely have a new spot that we can go to for date nights.

I had the BBQ Chicken calzone and WOW! The calzone was really good! The breading of the calzone itself was baked to perfection. And I'm not one for having barbecue sauce on pizza but it was really good in the calzone. Definitely recommend!

Hot and delicious calzones with a garlic butter crust. The insides are packed full of toppings and the only thing I wish I had was a little more marinara with each one.

Great service by an extremely pleasant man working by himself. Delicious pizza (large beef and sausage, cooked up in 25 minutes just as predicted upon ordering). Solid curly fries. I ate here on a day where everything was shut down due to a snowfall, and this owner was at his station, while Mellow Mushroom was closed, and he delivered great food at a very reasonable price. Thank you, sir. You are awesome, and I hope you continue to succeed.

2 x 10 Calzonnes on Tuesday!!!! Im loving Eddies! On wednesday they have 0.50 Wings. Wait time can be very high on weekend nights. But i love their calzonnes.

At 3:30 on g day this place was empty, which was a little surprising as Amici next door was very crowded, but I think I just came in at a weird time because it filled up completely as I ate. The fajita chicken calzone recommended by the person taking orders was spicy but delicious (not too hot if you like spicy), though the center was a little cooler than ideal. Decent canned beer selection, lots of tv’s to watch the game, and the staff were friendly. In my original review I questioned whether capturing Amici’s spillover was a partial consideration, but this wasn’t a fair characterization. Eddie’s is good enough to stand on its own and I’ll be coming back. Bonus points for an owner who is on top of things enough to read and respond to reviews.

Nice place with nice service. The wait was timely and the food was delicious. At the time I was there, the place was not crowded and the waitress was very kind and friendly. My companion ordered a calzone and a drink but I ordered cheese cake and a diet drink. Everything was simply delicious and we'll prepared. I had never had a warm cheesecake before. It was the best strawberry cheesecake that I have ever eaten. We will definitely frequent this place.
