We went there with a pizza pass to try it out. Had been to 15 other places listed on the pass and this one ranks number one. The best Detroit style Delux pizza and fried mushroom EVER.

Hands down best Detroit style and St. Louis Style (Imos is garbage compared to this place) in the St. Louis area!

Have been twice now, once for Detroit style and once for St Louis style. Both were winners but I really liked the StL. Will be back!

Went there on recommendation from my parents, and they do not disappoint! Got the Detroit style pizza and I think I went to pizza heaven. Met Mama Mel herself and she was so nice and chatted with me while waiting for my pizza to be ready.

I cannot recommend more, it’s so good and I’ll definitely be going back.

This is a perfect pizza place! Mel is so awesome, and so was the rest of the staff! The best Detroit Style pizza I've ever had, and the chef salad was great, too! Everything about our experience was awesome, with just one small exception. We ordered our pizza to be 1/2 pepperoni and sausage, and 1/2 hamburger and bacon. They mistakenly put all 4 toppings on the entire pizza, much to my wife's chagrin. I enjoyed it more because I had even more meats, but she doesn't care for pepperoni or sausage, so she was a little disappointed. Of course, we didn't make any fuss because, ultimately, it wasn't a deal breaker, and we don't ever want anything for free because we value giving business to these kinds of places. It's clearly a very minor mistake, and I feel I benefitted from it anyway! Again, my thanks to Mel and the crew for a wonderful experience! We can't wait to return soon (and try that hummingbird dessert!)

Thankful that I've found out about this place! I like all kinds of pizza, but if I have a choice between a chain or a mom&pop shop, I'm always gonna go for the mom&pop. I've only had the Detroit style pizza so far, but have had it twice now and it's great. The house salad dressing is also great. Looking forward to trying more things, but honestly- I think I'll keep getting the Detroit style, so it may be a while before I branch out.

Holy cow! This place is fantastic! We had the Detroit style pizza and it was the best ever. Hand made crust was out of this world. Great wings as well. Customer service was terrific! Chatted with the owners while we were there. Super nice people doing things right. We will definitely be back!

Born and raised in St Louis and I have to say this might just taste better than Imo's and it's a mom and pop shop very inexpensive. They have breaded cauliflower and you actually can taste the cauliflower absolutely delicious highly recommend you try this place even if you do not live in the area.

Kid-friendliness: Staff was very friendly food was absolutely delicious if you're in this area please buy from our small businesses so they stay in the neighborhood.

Exceptional service! Good pizza, but we definitely liked the STL more than the Detroit. Salad was good. Wings were not great (too big and not enough sauce). Some beers available but no draft.

Parking: Small dine in area, stayed busy the whole time. The owner was fantastic, kept the orders moving, was friendly and helpful while we decided what to order. We're visiting the area and are glad we came in for dinner.
