Best Detroit-style pizza in Pittsburgh--hands down! The crust is perfectly crisp on the edges, fluffy inside, and loaded with flavor. What makes this spot even better is their always-rotating vegan pie, there's always something new and creative to try.

The restaurant has a great setup with both dine-in and bar seating, plus a solid lineup of apps. Always consistent and always delicious ! Lucky to have them here in the 'Burgh!

Sat at the bar and ordered apps and pizzas. Good but not great service. Felt like the staff was a little disorganized. Otherwise decent experience and would return.

Fabulous pizza. I walked in hungry thinking I would eat the entire pizza of 6 square slices. But alas, I only finished 4 out 6 !!!!

This place was delicious!!!!!!!! Buffalo Chicken pizza was unreal. Only thing I would say is that it is extremely small in here so if thinking about dining in, I would try to get there early as it got super busy around lunch time. A little bit expensive but definitely worth it!

Amazing pizza and great service.

Dudes, I totally loved how simple and rad the menu was. They keep it basic but do everything so perfectly. We tried the Vegas pie and the Caesar salad. The salad was only one type on the menu, but man, was it flawless—tiny little croutons and fresh shaved cheese everywhere. Every single bite was on point. Nothing worse than biting into a salad and getting like three big clumps of croutons. Not here, bros!

Now the Vegas pie? Whoa! Smoked mushrooms, Slovenian sausage, garlicky cream, and a crispy parmesan crunch. It’s like pizza magic in every bite. No wonder Iron Born keeps winning pizza competitions left and right. This place is totally pizza ninja-level.

Turtle-approved, for sure!

Super cute small place the foreger pizza is absolutely incredible! Their red sauce is just ok but the crust and other toppings are excellent I would go back again especially for that foreger!

I had the Classic Pie and the Garlic Pull Apart Bread, and both were excellent. The pizza had a thick, crispy crust with great flavor and a good balance of cheese and sauce. The red sauce on top was really well seasoned.

The garlic bread came out soft and fluffy, loaded with herbs, and paired with a simple marinara that worked perfectly. It was the kind of bread you can’t stop eating even when you’re full.

Overall, a great meal. I’d definitely come back

Iron Born Pizza offers an authentic Detroit-style deep-dish experience in Pittsburgh's Strip District. The crust is thick yet light, with a satisfying crunch. A standout option is the classic pizza topped with cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, and fresh basil. The restaurant provides a relaxed dining atmosphere, though it tends to get busy during nights and weekends. It's a must-visit for pizza enthusiasts seeking hearty and indulgent flavors.
