Little Italy's Pizza & Pints, originally Little Italy's Pies & Pints was a New York-style pizzeria and bar in Five Points South.
It was opened on December 16, 2014 by Russ Rozof and his daughter, Shannon Kidd, who managed the business. Rozof, formerly a partner in Helena's Little Italy's Pizza, sold his stake in order to open the new restaurant, sometimes called a "sister restaurant" in Birmingham. They leased space in the Five Points Grocery building at 1924 11th Avenue South and Rozof, who is also a licensed contractor, built out the space himself.
The business was acquired in 2016 by Jay and Robin Veal. Under their management it became known as a supportive venue for local musicians, hosting artists 7 nights a week.
The business closed in April 2023 with plans to reopen in another location under the name Litty's, which was already used by regulars.
