About

Months before The Mad Italian opened in 1973, the search had begun for the "Proper" Italian Roll. After sampling the bread of several local bakers, we presumed the physical conditions in this city prevented the production of a roll which met our standards. Because of water quality, humidity and altitude, Atlanta bread was just not light enough to suit us.

Soon after this discovery, Allied Bakers in Long Island assured us they could supply the roll we desired. The regular hoagie roll is baked by the Cassone Bakery of Port Chester, New York and weighs only 3.5 ounces. It is made with pure vegetable shortening. We believe this to be the " Proper" Italian Roll. We are sure you will agree.

We developed our Creamy Italian Dressing many years ago from our own ingredients. Through the years, it has certainly been our most popular. People use it as a salad dressing, a dip, a condiment for their hoagies or just eat it with a spoon! It is extremely rich and creamy, made with Italian spices and other fresh ingredients. We take alot of pride in our dressing and we will continue to make it in our own kitchen as long as we are in existence. Ask your server for the House Dressing and enjoy!

For more than 40 years, The Mad Italian has strived to bring the freshest and best tasting food to your table. We offer the highest quality without regard to price and we take pride in what we serve.  We are convinced that our effort to make our own Meatballs, Sauces, Soups, Salad Dressings, Cheesecake Brownies and other items is what keeps our fans so loyal.
