Wrong order. Won’t credit you for the wrong toppings, but will delay you by saying they remake a pizza . Fine if you have time for that. Order and pay on an app and have to tip on service that hasn’t happened yet? Took a long time for drinks. Won’t be back.

Went today during the Red Wings game. The food was good and priced great for being in an arena. However none of the tvs in our section were playing the hockey game we were missing out on while there eating. Most were playing out of state college basketball or snowboarding. I asked a server if the game could be put on. He was friendly and asked a higher-up but was told it couldn't be done. Seeing as everyone at the arena was there for hockey it would make sense to have hockey on the TVs. Other than that it was a solid meal and definitely will be added to my rotation when I visit LCA.

Excellent!!! Easily the best food/beer option in the best sports arena!! I'm from Toronto but will definitely come back here

Just ok. Took forever, granted it was a busy night before concert, but you'd think they would figure that. Pretty much typical Little Cesar pizza, beer selection was good. Had to walk a long way to get back into bldg.

Note for those looking to go: the restaurant is NOT accesible from inside the LCA prior to showtime. You will be directed to walk around the outside of the arena and enter from the street entrance especially if you parked in the LCA garage (you will branch to the right after exiting the garage to get to the restaurant entrance).Good restaurant to get you in LCA prior to a show (after doors open, you can enter the arena from the restaurant)! However... things have changed since it first opened.Pizza isn't bad, but it is quite expensive for what you get. The part of the experience that really missed the mark was the scan the QR code, order on the website, pay and tip for your order, only to get your $9 wine in a plastic solo cup. The items came out relatively quickly, but after that, we didn't get any more service.Again, the staff we encountered was great! But the experience was not worth going out.Parking: Since the restaurant is located on the opposite side of the LCA parking garage, be prepared to walk around the building (if you are there prior to an event) to enter from the outside.

Decided to eat here with family before attending an event at Little Caesars Arena. Arrived around 1pm right at opening time so the place was pretty empty. We were seated at a high top in the middle of the restaurant. The place looked clean and was appealing to the eye. Rather than a traditional menu, you scan the QR code and put in your order that way. I have mixed feelings about this because I feel like in general staff aren't as attentive when things are set up this way. I was a bit disappointed by the lack of options on the menu. Really quite limited and not super appealing. It is a pizza joint after all, but my friend wanted pizza and I figured there's usually other menu options at pizza places. Nothing really stood out to me on the menu. I was also disappointed that I couldn't order by the slice since I was paying for my own food; the other three were together and one pizza wasn't likely going to cut it for four of us. However, a one-topping pizza was like $13 so I just decided to order a whole pizza and could live with not taking the leftovers with me for that cheap price. I was surprised by how fair the pricing was given that this is attached to LCA. We ordered cheesy bread and it was gooey and delicious. The pizza is okay. It's a thin crust that isn't great but the cheese and toppings are good. My Italian sausage was divvied up a little odd- there was a couple of pieces with little to no topping and then other pieces had tons of sausage. No big deal, I could pick and choose which pieces to eat. Now if we were all sharing and wanted sausage, that'd be a little disappointing. It was not the best pizza I've ever had but for $13, it was definitely satisfactory. Staff were friendly but no one checked on us or asked if we needed refills until we were getting ready to leave. With my pizza, a soda, and a 20% tip I ended up paying $19ish total. Very fair. Overall, I'm in no rush to go back but also not opposed to returning.

Such a great spot. What's better than pizza and beers?! Oh yeah, having it at the Redwings Arena. Fun environment, friendly staff, fresh food and more

Came to wings game and have been wanting to try Mike's pizza bar all season so far. I was very unimpressed. My wife's salad looked nothing like the picture on the menu, didn't even hVe lettuce. My deep dish pepperoni and sausage pizza literally tasted like they got it from little ceasars. I thought this was supposed to be Mike's recipe from before he started little ceasars? Then to top it off I ordered a sprit with my meal and had to hunt an employee down to get it because by the time I was almost done eating I still hadn't got my drink. Won't be back, not that Mike Ilitch is going to care about this review anyways.

I was prepared to be underwhelmed, but I was really pleasantly surprised. The Margarita pizza is good. The other pizzas I saw coming out looked delish. The Caprese salad was beyond a generic Caprese. It had burrata which was yummmmy. The wine lust is pretty good, but they need to add a by the glass Chardonnay.

I was a big fan of their margarita pizza. I was not the biggest fan of their meatballs or antipasto salad. Although you can sit down and eat your food, there are really no servers around. The staff takes turns on expo and running the food out. The restaurant is clean and very large. Great spot to check out before heading into a sports game or concert.

Everything was fantastic. Plus, I was served without the bother of idle chitchat from the servers. That alone was worth the 20% tip.

Stopped in for a few drinks and pizza before our concert. Great move! You have access to the Arena through the bar. We arrived about 2 1/2 hours before our show time, no wait, prompt service & pizza didn't take too long (about 20 min) pizza was OK, nothing special, light on sauce and not a top quality of toppings. I will definitely make it a point to eat here before the next show. Pricey arena priced drinks, which is a downside.WORST PART! Security guard went through my wallet!? I didn't see him go through anyone else's wallet. I felt very violated when he opened my wallet to fan through my money. He should have asked me to open it if he was that curious. I saw men's wallets thicker than mine that were not searched as extensively. Please review with your security team that they should ask to open wallets!

First thing, there is a bar to grab a drink before being seated. To the fight of that there are pizza slices in case you're hungry too. We get seated quickly, and order through the app. Since it's located in LCA they get your order started with a quickness and it arrived in no time. We got cheese bread and a pizza. The pizza was delicious as was the bread. They don't cheat you on toppings or cheese in Motown. Beers and drinks were a bit pricey, but it's in the arena so it's to be expected. Atmosphere was great and lots of tables to sit at. Will be back. Worth the trip!
