Still my favorite go to pizza place! I crave this place's pizza once a week although I don't go every week I'd love to. My last visit I ordered a pizza with mushroom bacon onion and spinach! My God was it good! I asked the owner to make me a Pizza of his liking and he didn't disappoint. It had portobello mushrooms fresh jalapeños onion and garlic. It was stellar! I swear the pizza is better the next day and it reheat perfectly. The crust gets even more pillowy yet crispy on the outside. And you can tell he uses great mozzarella cheese because it doesn't turn into the usual creamy mess it actually stays Snappy and chewy. Can't wait to go again!!!! read more

First time trying, we got two pizzas, one modified to be vegan. Both were huge and very good. I wish there was more tomato sauce, also the vegan cheese that I received was not a mozzarella type, but some kind of cheddar or something. I hope this was just an error and the owner has a mozzarella type vegan cheese. These are not cheap, but each lasts for two meals so that was ok. The person on the phone (male) was not the friendliest, same when I came to pick up the food, so that was a little turn off for me. Overall the pizza was the second best we've had in this area after Crispellis, so we're going to add it to our rotation for sure. read more

The long awaited Woodward Italian shop I have been SEEKING and SALIVATING. I made it, I'm here, let's talk about it. I only just found out it was pick-up only. You know damn well Yelpers that the number 1 rule about doing these reviews is this: NEVER DELIVER. It's just not the right way to experience it. You need the conversation, you need the interior, you need the cashier asking if you'd like to tip. (You know I'm joking, they don't ask. My fellow Berklians know that I ALWAYS tip 20%) When I walked in this couple already looked like they got into it. Atleast I know that if it's not love, or sadness being put into my pizza; it's ANGER. Beat that dough and smash those tomatoes. Slap that mootz onto that fresh pie, spank it a little. If your head doesn't look the color of a San Marzano making my pie... don't even bother. The crank hands me and my girlfriend the garlic bread. Bro. This might actually be some of the best bread I've ever had. It's like Canes with their sauce. Garlic bread is an incredibly overlooked component to a good pizza and I'm so happy that they put there ALL into making the best possible cheese bread. So delicious, it melts! The pizza was quite floppy, albeit, that was probably on me for leaving it in the box for more than 10 minutes. But the crust is chewy, the taste is pretty good. Tomatoes were a little bland, but that's probably a compliment to the cheese; like, hey look at me, f*** the tomato- look at me! I'm buffalo mozzarella, look how good I am. The penne pasta we got was VERY sweet, and cooked to perfection! The sauce was so sweet it almost tasted like it was TOO sweet. I literally had to add SALT to it like when should anyone ever have to do that to something overpowered by sweetness? Me of course cause clearly I wasn't thinking. It turned out to be spectacular though. I liked Grano, pretty good pizza at a monstrous price. But you can't deny, CLEANEST kitchen in the whole U.S. and definitely a lot of care put into their craft. There are 100% some maestro's coming out of that walk-in everyday, and like Tony Soprano's psychiatrist said, hope comes in many different forms. I love Italian-America, it's so dedicated.

It's the best! Everything that he cooks anywhere is legendary!! Make it your next takeaway.

We got the garlic parm focaccia which was nothing special and very overpriced. A dipping sauce would have helped. The pizza was "ok" but I won't be back. From the cheese to the sauce, something was missing and it was bland. read more

Hands down the best pizza in bham. Everything is on point, and it's exactly the same every time. Consistency is the key word.

The best pie around - the sides are also very good. Fresh, high-quality ingredients. The care really shines through.

The pizza was good, not great. The ingredients were fresh and the dough had a good chew but it tasted almost sweet, maybe it was the sauce. Prices are too high, given there are lots of other good wood fired pizza joints in the area. For almost $30 per pie, my expectations were high, and left me wanting more. read more

they messed up our order and then took all the food back for almost a half hour. ultimately was not worth the wait or the hassle. very average pizza too read more

Every order has been simply delicious. I do not like spinach, at all but the spinach pie here is everything I didn't know I needed. I add some grilled chicken and tomato and it's wonderful! The salads are big and fresh and enough for 3 meals for me. Their grilled chicken and hummus is so tasty. My only gripe is I wish a smaller size pie was available for 1or 2 people. Otherwise this is one of my favorite pizzas! read more

Quality in every bite-hands down the best I've ever had. I'm at the point where I would rather pay a few extra bucks for high quality ingredients than eat dirty food. read more

I've been here twice now, and tried three different pies, salad, and the meatballs. Each time, I think, "man, this place is expensive". And it is pricier than your average chain place. But, in this case, you get what you pay for. This is some of the best pizza, and food, this side of NYC. I find myself thinking about the pizza. My mouth waters. My pulse quickens. I hear angels in the distance. This truly is the best food you can get around here. Nothing but quality ingredients, fresh and flavorful. So pry open your wallets, and get over there and treat yourselves! You're welcome. read more

Note that this location is carry out only, there is no seating other than a few chairs to wait for your order. We ordered over the phone and it took them only 25 mins. This was such amazing pizza!!

Highly recommend, this will be our new go-to local pizza in the Birmingham area! read more

Pizza 10. Meatballs 0. Light crisp crust. Tangy sauce. Even tasted great reheated two days later. 2nd favorite pizza in Michigan. 16 bucks for 4 small meatballs that were rubbery, dense, and chewy. Enjoyed the bread that was included with them. read more

They have excellent vegan and gluten free pizza. They use high quality and fresh ingredients. I highly recommend it.

I was going to give up on pizza after being diagnosed with celiac disease. But this place does the best gluten free cauliflower crust in town hands down. They also make a great cheese pizza with fresh tomato sauce for the kids. Love the selection of toppings, and they're always spot on with their wait times. Order early and often! read more

Have driven by daily. Finally tried their pizza. Excellent pizza. Crust was excellent. Best pizza in the Royal Oak/Birmingham area.

Hands down the best pizza I've ever had. Will never order from another local competitor. Every bite was crisp, not doughy in the middle. Flavor was amazing! Friendly owners! Thank for creating this game changer! Update: got second pizza in two days. Changed it up and tried the Buffalo chicken pizza on gluten free crust. Again amazing! read more

I'm always up for trying a new pizza place, so when I saw the sign go up for this place, I knew we'd be giving it a try. They don't have online ordering up and running yet, but they were very efficient when we called. We went for something traditional and also tried the garlic pizza - both were very good. The prices are a little high, but it's nice to have another solid pizza spot on the Birmingham scene. read more

Best Pizza I've had in years! Greek salad amazingly fresh and the dressing? - 7 Stars!

Tried this place on a whim and it was delicious! I had the Baked Penne Palmina which came with fresh focaccia bread that was so light and fluffy. My boyfriend had a pepperoni pizza with roasted garlic. The crust was delicious. He also ordered a Baked Penne Marinara which looked amazing but we were too full to try as the portions were generous. read more

We have a contender folks! This is like Rocky Marciano vs Rocky Marciano. Tomatoes a pizza vs Grano pizzaiolo. This new kid on the block just served me up a strong 8.9 out of 10 pizza 90% no flop great crust, cooking bubbles, delicious sauce and toppings. The reigning champ tomatoes all of the above with slightly tastier sauce coming in at 8.7 with a more unruly flop factor. You cant go wrong with either one but the new kids got something up his sleeve and thats a bottom crust that is just slightly crunchy, you can actually hear it and that harkens back to what made ny pizza so good. No other pizza around here has this quality. If you haven't had either try both, if you love tomatos a pizza give this a shot like i did, theres room for both these delicious pies in my life with an honorable mention to the reopened primos coming in at a solid 8 and their late night slices yum. read more

Best crust in town, the fermentation matters- and the pizza is just great with high quality ingredients and the warmest family touch from the people working there. We tried the buffalo chix pizza tonight, and already love margarita and pepperoni, etc. Cannolis and italian sodas are nice adds too! read more

Love This Place! Amazing Options! Fantastic Pizza! Top Notch Ingrediants! Great Flavors! Great Service!

Been a regular here for quite a while now. The pizzas amazing! Same thing with their cannolis. If you're reading this I would recommend visiting/checking the place out, it's worth it :) read more

Good pizza but fwiw spoke openly about supporting Trump which now that I know that I can no longer in good conscious spend my money there.

By far the very best pie in the area. I drive by 7 pizza places on my way there. Meatball is amazing, Sausage is outstanding, but it's the thin crust and the silky smooth sauce all baked to perfection. This pie really comes together! I see multiple locations in their future hope one is by me. Needs pizza review by Portnoy 9.2 read more

Great pizza! Crust had nice crunch but still soft and chewy under the sauce. Not too thin of a slice but still very satisfying. One of better pizzas in the neighborhood. read more

Had the pepperoni pizza and really enjoyed it! It had Parmesan cheese already on top of it which I liked. It's a take out only place but the staff was super friendly for pickup. read more

We ordered a custom vegetarian pie and a house salad last night. Absolutely delicious! We usually get a meat pie, but were abstaining from meat during Lent. The ingredients are top notch - both salad and the pie. It is a treat to order from here. It's a bit pricey, but worth it. The owner is the chef, and I assume his hard working wife managing the counter and I assume his son working the oven. I rank this as one of the best pizzas in Metro Detroit! read more

We gave it a try and, sadly, weren't impressed. The pizzas were both overdone and the crust was thin and couldn't hold the toppings without flopping. For the cost, there are better options around town. The best part was the Greek salad. read more
