The Atlanta Business Chronicle is reporting that the Castellucci Hospitality Group, which owns the popular Iberian Pig restaurant in downtown Decatur, is moving their Sandy Springs restaurant, Double Zero Napoletana, into the giant, vacant Ink & Elm space in Emory Village. Ink & Elm closed back in May 2015.
Here’s a bit of info about the new spot from ABC…
Castellucci Hospitality Group plans to move its southern Italian restaurant Double Zero from its location on Roswell Road to Emory Village. The restaurant that serves handmade pasta and Neapolitan pizza will take the former Ink & Elm space on North Decatur Road.
As part of the move, Double Zero plans to revamp its menu with new small plates and larger, shareable dishes. Executive chef Edwin Molina will continue to lead the kitchen.
ABC reports that the restaurant is expected to reopen in June.
In Creative Loafing’s “Ultimate Pizza Smackdown” Double Zero’s “Classico” pizza ranked #8 among Atlanta ‘zas. In that same smackdown, Decatur Sapori di Napoli’s “Green Machine” ranked #5. O4W Pizza’s Grandma Pie was #1.

Just what the village needs. A fourth pizza restaurant.
It’s much more than a pizza restaurant.
I haven’t been to Double Zero (yet), but something tells me it isn’t exactly competing with Marcos.
NOOOOOO!!!! Just made work that much gloomier. Loved going there for lunch.
This is such good news. We love 00, but it was just too far!
I suppose having them closer for dinner is a plus.
