🍕 **A NEW CHAPTER BEGINS AT 202 S JEFFERSON STREET… ❤️**
Hello Athens!
For those who don’t know me yet, my name is **Max Villagómez**, and after a long journey, I’m incredibly grateful to say that I’m returning once again to a pizza place and a community that have meant a lot to me.
When I first came here, I found much more than a restaurant. I found a community that welcomed me, supported me, and gave me the opportunity to grow.
And today, I come back with the same energy — but with bigger dreams.
📍 **202 S Jefferson St has a history in Athens.**
Many of you may remember this location through different chapters and different names over the years — **Little Texas, Rodeo’s Cantina, Mozza Pizza, Hermozza Pizza** — and now we are honored to begin its next chapter:
🍕❤️ **GABRIELA’S PIZZA KITCHEN & BAR**
We are not here to erase the history of this place.
We want to **respect it, preserve what people have loved about it, and build something even better for the future.**
Our goal is simple:
Great pizza.
Great food.
Great drinks.
Great service.
And a place where families, friends and the Athens community feel welcome.
Those of you who already know Gabriela’s Latin Fusion know how seriously we take hospitality, flavor and taking care of our guests.
Now we want to bring that same heart and commitment to **Gabriela’s Pizza Kitchen & Bar**.
This community has given me and my family so much, and I am deeply grateful.
My hope is that **202 S Jefferson Street continues serving Athens for many, many years to come.**
🛠️ **We are currently in transition.**
You will see us making some renovations, improving the restaurant, working on the menu and gradually updating our Facebook, Instagram, Google Business Profile, website and other platforms to reflect the new Gabriela’s concept.
But one thing is very important:
**WE ARE NOT CLOSED. ❤️🍕**
We are OPEN and ready to serve you throughout the transition.
📍 **Gabriela’s Pizza Kitchen & Bar**
202 S Jefferson St
Athens, AL 35611
🕙 **Open Monday–Sunday**

Over the next few weeks, you will see many changes.
New branding.
New ideas.
New menu additions.
A refreshed restaurant.
And many surprises.
But at the heart of everything will be the same thing:
**Good food, good service, and gratitude for this incredible community.**
Thank you, Athens, for allowing us to begin this new chapter.
We hope you will be part of it with us.
❤️🍕 **Welcome to Gabriela’s Pizza Kitchen & Bar.**
**A new chapter. Same neighborhood. More flavor. More memories to come.**
