This business helps the Martin Drive Neighborhood with local community events. Ingredients are fresh with the dough. This is the place you go to if you want a classic, thin crust pizza that won't make it to leftovers or beyond one day because everyone will eat it.

This was one of the best pizzas Ive ever had. Super crispy crust. Bottom crust held up to all the toppings. Great flavor on sauce. And the owner was SO nice and told us the history of the place while we waited for our togo order. We WILL be back!!

Excellent thin crust pizza! We love the quality ingredients including flavorful tomato sauce and the sausage. Very fair prices given the quality. We always do takeout. Highly recommend this local pizzeria!

Great pizza! Thin, crispy, and savory. A perfect cook! Shout out to the garlic bread strips. Very light and well seasoned.

When I came in to dine in, I ordered ahead using the online menu as we were in a rush to have a quick dine in meal and get home. The pizza wasn't started until we got there and took about 30 minutes to arrive. The owner had never given us a menu when we sat down. When we received the bill, there was no itemization. I had referenced the prices online from the website and the owner stated that the prices were from 2008 and so didn't reflect current prices. The breakdown of costs didn't make sense to me even after I discussed it with the owner. He asked if he should provide discounts to me after explaining it and I felt awkward to be in that position as a customer. There should be a clear menu available to customers with current prices both in store and online and the final bill should be itemized explaining all charges. I believe we were also charged for garlic strips even though we had referenced the coupon online for free garlic strips. The pizza didn't seem as good as a few years ago. The inside of the restaurant also had dirty lounge seating and the floors didn't seem to clean. The owner and the cook doubled as wait staff. We had pleasant conversation and their demeanor was friendly. This is a historic place and I believe the reputation it has should carry with it the basic experience of cost transparency and cleanliness for a restaurant that has been around so long and has become a tourist destination for many visiting Milwaukee.

Excellent pizza from Milwaukee's oldest pizzeria! We chatted with an older gentleman who took our order - mentioned we visited because of the Secret Milwaukee book - he is an absolute TREASURE! Pizza excellent!

Meeting the owner, Wally, was reason enough to come. He's a glowing example of everything that makes the Midwest great - warm, good humored, and incredibly hard working. If there's a Milwaukee welcoming committee - Wally should be a member of it.
Beyond the beam of light that is Wally, the food was really fantastic. Delicious cracker crust pizza cooked to perfection with balanced and slightly sweet sauce. Everything had perfect ratios and there was immense care put into everything they served.
Grab a cold can of Schlitz and you've got a perfect evening with friends, family, and the amazing folks who own and operate the restaurant. Can't recommend it enough.

We just got carryout and the food was exceptional. Will be getting this again and very glad to have tried this place.
Milwaukee style thin crust pizza was flavorful, light & fresh. Crust was delightfully crispy and not soggy. Friendly staff. Clean and nostalgic atmosphere. Definitely recommend trying if you never have! Will be back when we’re in town visiting again.

The pizza is so good, and can’t really beat the prices! I got chicken tenders last night and they were bomb, crunchy crust and flavorful seasoning. Only $7 for 4 (or 5?) pc and fries. Ranch is fire too.

We wondered a little when we walked in at 6pm and were the only ones there. But the pizza was super delicious as was our garlic bread and cheesy bread apps. We got IBC root beers and a High Life as well. We had two 18" pizzas and two apps and 4 drinks for 5 adults and 3 kids, and we had some pizza leftover. Came to $77, so I think the prices were a little higher than the menu listed, but still reasonable.
Service was very nice guy, didn't check on us super often but I think he was also helping cook. A couple other tables eventually came in as well.
The decor hadn't been updated or anything but it was quaint. They had an A grade for sanitation from MKE County health on the door.
