    Rita plus $2.50 of portobello mushrooms
    Jennifer B.

    The 12-5 happy hour is the best. Really good martini menu. I missed the Hot Madre today. Free parking in a back lot. Friendly staff. Fun seating options from couches to high tops. You can actually talk here. Pizza (both vegan and not). 12" one topping is only $10 during happy hour. Baked goods, coffee, and so many vegan options. Love this place for a drink and snack.

    Mother Handsome quickly became a neighborhood favorite. Coffee shop, pizzeria, and a bar all in one place! The store is bright and welcoming with colorful murals, friendly staff, and cozy corners with couches. The food and drinks are tasty and they have options for GF pizza crust. There is a private room that can be rented for private parties and is also used for special events such as networking and crafts markets. Trivia night has become tradition. It's a great casual hang out!

    Rented a party room for a family party. Everything was handled so well! We did an open bar. Drinks came quickly and the service on refills was excellent. We did a pizza and salad buffet. Super tasty pizza. Regular, Greek and Caesar salad. And some nice garlic flatbread. Very happy with the party. The room had plenty of room for kids to run around and they had toys for the kids to play with!! Plenty of high chairs

    Fire. You must try this gem. Mother Handsome really left a memory in my foodie bank. We will definitely be back. Located in Royal Oak, the space is cozy & laid back. The menu is simple, the drinks are amazing. The service is speedy & friendly- all the dynamics to a perfect spot to dine in. Perfect for parties, date nights, family. Pizza by the slice or by the pie. I ordered the pie so I had leftovers - perfect strategy. Come check out Mother Handsome. Absolute perfection!

    Matcha Latte

    Before I start, I wanna talk about the music that played here. They played Laufey, Mitski, Beabadoobee, Mac Demarco, and Radiohead back to back, again, and back again. I pray for the person on the aux. It'll get better soon man, don't worry. Anyways, before I break Yelp's relevancy guidelines, let's talk about the food! I was incredibly shocked to see that a single slice of the Margarita Pizza was 8 dollars. And get this, a 12" Rita is 17 dollars. So you could either 4 slices that are worth two slices, or.... I'm sorry my brain is brand spanking new it's like 6am when I'm writing this. What I'm trying to say is that I had very high expectations, cause like what? And that's insane compared to the Matcha Latte, which was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Okay, before I get to the pizza, let me talk about this Matcha. The Matcha Latte with a little drizzle of honey, is so, so refreshing and carefully strained to perfection. The barista has clearly an eye for this stuff, because this is some of the most delicious matcha in Berkley, since Coffee and Bark's matcha is genuinely disgusting. But this is Mother Handsome, not Coffee and Bark. That is a long rant for another time. I'd much rather rant about how everyone started staring at me when I walked in, it was like a cartoon. Maybe I need to take rejection therapy or something cause that made me genuinely insecure and disheveled. Wasn't their fault though, I had a really strange hat on that day. The pizza was such a floppy let down. The pizza is not that impressive, especially with all these high expectations. The raving reviews, the expensive undertaking, the atmosphere even seemed a little competitive. It had me kind of sad I drank my Matcha Latte before hand, that's probably a loophole they do. They make their matcha really good and their pizza really underwhelming, so they'll finish the Matcha first, and then buy another one after to wash down the E40. Okay, I'm done. The interior was incredibly cozy, I had a very nice seat in the corner of the building and enjoyed my second Matcha (okay fine I fell for it) under the sun, while thinking about how much I abused my bank account this week. WOW. 3/5

    So many espresso martinis, all so delicious. The tiramisu is a must!! The pizza is absolutely sensational, fantastic crust and incredibly fresh & flavorful toppings. Top tier ranch too!

    Cucumber daiquiri

    $14 for half a drink that's actually not good at all. Sad. Cute place and nice service but coffee and cocktails overpriced and mediocre. Rather pay that price at a nice bar in Detroit that tastes good.

    Decaf cardamom latte
    Charissa F.

    Love the vibe and varied seating here. The service is a bit slower on a busy Sunday evening but the servers are friendly. I enjoyed my cardamom latte next time maybe I'll order pizza! Love the late night vibes and how people are her for drinks, food, coffee, WFH, and more.

    It looks like I might need to park in the back. There's only parking in the back then. It's packed in the back. Back patio. The menu is pizza and more carby pizza mostly. Ordered at the bar, grabbed a Mom's house 16" with up charge of chicken instead of pepperoni, Greek salad with feta on the side, Caesar salad. $55.12 The Greek salad is okay, lots of yellow Romaine pieces. Nothing special. The Caesar is so-so, the dressing is more of a vinaigrette. The bread on top of the salad seems stale and hard, not so good. The pizza is thin, except for the crust. It's okay, the spicy sausage is what gives it flavor, otherwise the Mom's house is bland. The crust isn't bad, just not as chewy and airy, more dense than I prefer. Service at the bar was good, attentive and polite.

    Trivia night on Tuesday
    Nawana L.

    First time visiting and it's Trivia night. The restaurant was packed but didn't feel too crowded. We were able to find a table, order two 12 inch pies and drinks quickly. The drinks arrived really fast and I loved the dirty Chai martini. The food arrived soon after and both pizzas were delicious. I loved the flavor of the cheese sent the dough had a soul dough finish. I'll try to come again during happy hour, when the 12 inch pies and espresso martinis are only $10!

    The cutest coffee shop/pizza bar! What a gem! My matcha was delicious and I can't wait to go back and try even more! Service was wonderful and there was plenty of space.

    Lucy N.

    the pizza was delicious!!! We got the summertime lemon ricotta and the hot honey pepperoni pizza. Service you just order on your phone/QR code so it was pretty simple. The environment was so cute!!! Lots of seating inside but they also had a great patio outside as well. They also have a coffee bar too so it was giving a coffee shop vibe too. Lots of parking in the back.

    I ordered take out from here and it was extremely fast service! The pizza was fresh, the salad as well. Overall, a decent pizza. I wish there were some red onions or more red onions on it for a nice crunch. I didn't love the pizza crust and felt there could have been more sauce. The Greek salad was as expected.

Just one burger option and limited toppings. Server was very nice but didn't write down the order, and when it came my burger was missing the cheese and onion. I wasn't sure if they would take it back or what so I didn't eat anymore and it took her a decent amount of time to come and check on us after we got our food. I let her know what was missing and she said it was her fault and asked if I wanted it fixed. I said yeah and she went and got a cold piece of cheese and slice of onion and put it on a plate and gave to me to put on my own burger. I'd expected a little bit better service and I'm certainly not someone who demands top tier service from every spot. Fries were crispy but needed some parm or an aioli sauce to dip in. Also minor note but I had some fries left on my plate and when she came to collect plates I had food in my mouth so I couldn't say anything but she took the plate and my fries! They should always ask if there's any food left on the plate. Burger was decent overall, but definitely nothing special. Environment was cool and I'm sure they have got some other delicious items on the menu but for the price paid and service received, I'd go somewhere else next time.
