Definitely one of the best pizza places in town. I've only had the detroit style, but it's great. Beer selection is awesome as well.

First time here, got the Italian sandwich which was phenomenal! A slice of the Detroit double pepperoni pizza which was good. Also tried the fried pickles which were delicious. My husband got the sweet and spicy thin crust pizza which was also amazing! All the staff was super friendly and loved the look of the place. We will definitely be back soon!

Great thick crust pizza with a slight crispness. It's the best at a restaurant that I've had in a long time. Excellent sandwiches, too, the Italian is the best.

Their pizza is amazing, with Real pepperoni not the paper thin kind! The salads were crispy fresh. Friendly, attentive service and inviting ambiance. The interior has a vintage retro but industrial style decor, definitely suitable for this quality pizza house. The restaurant is clean and has a large area perfect for large parties. We were here for lunch so we didn't get to experience the restaurant during the evening but I'm sure we'd have a good time playing the vintage video games while having pizza and a cold beer! 🍕🕹️🍻

Wheelchair accessibility: They have regular and high top tables. The regular tables are spaciously arranged.

Love that this place is connected to the Craft bar. You can choose to eat in the restaurant or the bar. You can choose the thick Detroit style (good and very filling!) or a thinner bar pizza (also good and very cheesy). Sandwiches are great. It's usually quiet on weeknights so you can hang out and have a nice conversation.

They have mini Nintendo machines at the tables. A bar, and Detroit style pizza. Like legit Detroit pizza. Well worth it.

¡Qué desastre! On our first (and last) visit here we walked into an empty restaurant late in the afternoon on a Wednesday. We had barely gotten in the door when the man across the room at the register indicated he was ready for us.

After looking over the menus in the stand by the door we went up and ordered 2 slices of "double pepperoni" and a half Apple Walnut salad. (The register dude said he usually needs two slices of pizza to fill up, but a half salad is usually enough for two people -- which it was. But having never tried their pizza we decided to stick to one slice each to start out.)

As we walked away from the register I noticed the guy had only rang up one slice of pizza. When I went back he said "Well I guess you get one for free." I wasn't sure whether to thank him or to apologize.

We ended up going the bar side to eat which we found by accident. While waiting for our food I went up and tasted a couple lower-buzz Mosaic beers, and ordered a Boom Bang Pow, which was the least watery of the ones I tried. But still nothing to write home about.

Our salad came out first. The greens were a bit wilted and walnuts were over-candied to the extreme. The croutons were pretty good. The dressing was this weirdly thick sweet concoction, but they gave us a lot of it.

A while later a young woman brought out a tiny slice of cheese pizza swimming in a huge aluminum pan (which in hindsight I guess is the pan for a whole 8"x12" pizza). Since we figured this was the "free" slice we let it go that there was no pepperoni.

A while later the young woman brought out another tiny slice of cheese pizza. This time we stood our ground and insisted we get at least one thing we ordered and paid for. And to her credit she apologized and was back with a slice of pepperoni pretty quickly.

So now finally having two slices of pizza, we ate them. And they were pretty bad. The caramelized outer crust was kinda authentic. But the inner crust was tough, there wasn't much in the way of cheese or pepperoni (if this was double pepperoni I'd hate to see the single version!), and the sauce was boring and also laid on lightly.

I guess all these people who give this place 5 stars, and who say they come back over and over, have different experiences than we did? :(

Oh yeah. And it's handy to Sprouts if you want to do a little post-dining shopping. The parking situation is also good. But since we won't be coming back, none of that matters.
