In town to catch a Tigers game and wanted pizza with both Vegan and Gluten Free options. Pie Sci to the rescue! They have your traditional choices along with Vegan and Gluten Free. It is a very clean and homey dinning area! The staff makes you feel welcomed from the get go! Our visit to Detroit was in the 90's with very high humidity which kept us indoors. They also have a garden patio out back which would have been my preference if the temperature was a bit lower. My family and I all had small square pizzas. We had a Veggie D on gluten free and made vegan with the cashew cheese. My daughter was in a happy place with her choice. We also had a Pep Squad made vegan with the follow your heart cheese. Another hit. I had Hawaiian 5-0 on gluten free along with the jalapeño bbq sauce. My pizza was great! They serve Faygo soda which is great. Their homemade version of the Choco Taco was great! As hot as it was. I was going to ask if I could get it out of their walk-in freezer myself!
Pretty good pizza I ordered the veggie pizza with beef pepperoni, crust had cujin and sesame the pizza was completely covered with toppings which I loved and full of flavor but unfortunately their were a few slices that had a few bites that the dough was not completely cooked. But the rest was yummy
This is one of the best gluten free dairy free pizzas I've ever had! I didn't know there was such a thing of GF thick crust, and when I finally found a spot with GF thick crust and DF cheese, I was over the moon to try it. The pizza went beyond my expectations. The crust was soft and tasty. The cheese was plentiful and actually melted. The toppings were also plentiful. The staff were also really helpful. My only disappointment was that I didn't buy another pizza to take home to freeze. Not sure what cheese or crust they use, but I will be back every time I visit Detroit no matter what. I wish all GF DF pizza could taste like this!
Heard great things about this place and finally stopped in. It is much smaller inside than I was expecting. We got two small pizzas, a pepperoni and supreme square. Nice outside crisp cheese on crust, crust was really nice, I was expecting a much more dense crust but it was airy, which was great! Flavor of the toppings was great and sauce was nice. Would for sure come back!
Yummy! I only like thin crust pizza, and this hit the spot. I had the BLT, which was delicious in the future. I'll get it with even more tomatoes. My daughter had the Keegan Michael gnocchi, two thumbs up. My sister-in-law had the Hawaii Five-0, another two thumbs up.
Pie Sci is a staple local pizza joint serving both classic and imaginative pies in traditional Detroit style (or round, if that's your thing!) Both times I've dined in was for a collaboration pizza between Pie Sci and Khana, the "Butter Chicken" pizza. It's truly a masterpiece. We got there early on a Monday evening and snagged a table, and watch them get progressively busier the whole night. There's never not a pizza in the oven. You order at the counter, grab your seat, and one of the workers calls your name at the counter in a sing-songy fashion that prompts you to want to respond in the same way. Nice to see them having fun with it! Pictured: Cheese bread, Butter Chicken pizza (speciality, not usually available) we made this disappear quickly!
Visiting from Indiana. We needed some legit Detroit style pizza and, boy, did we find it. Employee's were nice and helped us quickly. Cute little shop. Unique toppings with plenty of vegetarian options. Crust was well made. Clever food combinations. I had the devastator and that curry ketchup really sealed the deal! Definitely coming back
I recently went here and I have to say that it was alright. I did enjoy the pizza although the texture of cheese not so much. The dough is the kind where you need a drink with it! My boyfriend who is not a vegan enjoyed the cheese bread the most and had no complaints about the pizza! I'm not too sure what the inside of the restaurant looked like or how good the service was, although my boyfriend went into the place and I heard no complaints from him. I ordered the pizza online and it was done in about 20 minutes! I'd like to add that I would definitely come here again. The pizza is very filling and I like that we can customize our pizza with a bunch of different toppings. I can appreciate this being a vegan place because there's not many near my area!!
I am a fiend for Detroit style pizza. I so wanted to love Pie Sci, but I can't say anything really stood out. The menu itself is quite creative. With options like Hawaii 5-0, pickle rich, and even Alfredo. I went for the fennel sausage, Which sounds wonderful in theory. Technically speaking, it falls short. I'm looking for the distinctive crispy outer crust I've come to love and the chewy thickness of the crust itself. The pizza itself would could have really benefited from a sauce to top it off(as often you find on this style), or even a drizzle of some sort. I wish I could say more, but it's all just subtle and underwhelming. Since the very first encounter I had with Detroit style pizza, I've been shouting its praises from the rooftops. I've now had it all over the country, and some absolutely incredible pies to say the least. But one thing that continues to mystify me is why I simply cannot find a great Detroit style in.....Detroit! The search continues....
I'm always on the lookout for delicious gluten free pizza, and my husband and I were in the area, so we decided to give Pie Sci a chance. Goodness! I am so glad that we did. The pizza was large and delicious. The staff were very friendly. There aren't a lot of tables to sit at, but that wasn't a big deal to us. The gluten free crust is thin and crispy, somewhat like a thick cracker. We got the Pickle Rick. My husband, who eats gluten, even said it was one of the best pizzas he's had. There is street parking, and as it's across the street from a university, I'd imagine it's quite popular among college students. We will definitely be back.
One of the best Detroit Style pies, and with that responsibility everything is divine from the crust crispness and flavor to the crazy flavors. And crazy isn't that crazy, I had a strawberry balsamic pie that still makes my mouth water. Pie Sci isn't afraid to try new things and that's what makes it so great - when you go (because you have to) try the weekly flavor it's usually worth the risk! With any Detroit style pie, it does take a while in the oven, but it is better fresh. They do have seating, but it is minimal.
i've had SO many recommendations to try pie sci! did not disappoint!! i got the 8x10 square fig lebowski, it was sweet and savory and crispy and just all around so delicious:) i love the vibe in the shop too and the staff is so so nice! will definitely be coming here again!!

I had to update my review based on their now brick and mortar. My boyfriend and I went here after our partner yoga class on Saturday night around 8:30pm and ordered pizza to go. I got the cheesus crust and he got the notorious PIG and both were amazingly delicious! We ended up eating half of them at the store because we were starving and they looked so good. Mine had ham, arugula and egg on it and had the perfect combo of sauce and cheese. It was cooked well done enough for me (huge fan of well done pizza). His had all the meats - pulled pork, pepperoni and I think ham and bacon. It had bbq sauce and was also delicious (because I ate his too). I ate half but could probably finish off a small for sure. I suggest two smalls for two people so that you can try them both. His was $9, mine was $8. They were ready in about 15 minutes and there is seating available too if you're looking to dine in. I'll 100% be back to try all of the pizzas...no really, all of them. read more

Love PieSci! Just learned today that they have a rotating seasonal menu! You really can't go wrong with whatever you choose. Ones I've had- BLT, Pesto, Poblano Picasso, and Fleetwood Mac. They're all good! BLT was probably my favorite. read more

Love this place! Every pizza I've ever gotten there has been absolutely amazing and the service was so kind. My only complaint is how long it took to get our pizza, but the wait is well worth it! Pictured is a vegan brunch pie from February called the "I Got My Hash Pie" read more

Pizza was delish... first time going here and ordered the Mac and cheese pizza with real bacon and cheese. This was better than jets, Pizza Hut and little Cesar. I would definitely go back and try their other pizzas read more
My husband and I are both gluten free and vegan, so we are somewhat limited when dining out, especially when it comes to pizza places. We are from California, and were visiting my family who live near Detroit, and they took us to Pie Sci while we were visiting Detroit for the day. We ordered the Tempeh of Doom gluten free vegan pizza and wow! We are still dreaming about it 3 weeks later. The crust was perfect - it's hard to get a GF pizza crust the right texture, we've experienced GF crusts that were either too crunchy or too soggy. Pie Sci's gluten free crust was just right. And the toppings! Where do I begin? The Tempeh of Doom has garlic oil, seasoned black beans, marinated tempeh, roasted sweet potato, vegan Follow Your Heart mozzarella, topped with vegan adobo sour cream drizzle and fresh cilantro. INCREDIBLE. The layering of flavors was out of this world. They really do have pizza making down to a science! On our way out, we ordered vegan Detroit style slices (to go) for our Michigan family (who are not gluten free). They said they were absolutely delicious! We also picked up some rad Pie Sci stickers to put on our skateboards & cars. The art is awesome! The employees are great and the owner, Jeremy is down to earth and well deserving of all the accolades for this incredible pizza place. If you are anywhere near the Detroit area, don't miss stopping by here! We can't wait to go back one day soon! read more

Pie Sci is my favorite pizza place in Detroit. Their service is always excellent and their pizza is amazing. I ordered the pear necessities pizza and it was perfect. I also appreciate that masks are mandatory and social distancing is enforced to help keep everyone safe. read more
Happened upon this place-FINALLY! There were two of us. Did we want to each get a small? Or did we want to split a large? We were hungry- we split a large Meatlovers from the classic column of the chalkboard menu. We studied the pizza varieties- very cute. Loved the play on names, and the references, especially for a Bobs Burgers fan. I wanted to try the Jimmy pesto just for that reason. We added a pop for each at $2.50, priced high, But it was detroit soda company, so i didnt mind too much. You serve your pop at the fountain machine around the corner from the counter. You order at the counter, give a name, and take a seat. The guys who took the order, checked on us while we sat and brought our pizza to us were all really nice and welcoming. Its a small place. So it got loud quick. Maybe seats 30. Pizza took maybe 15 minutes to get to the table. the Large came square and had 8 pieces. We left with 2. And id go back. read more
Detroit is home for Pizza and we have another place on the upper scale of the curve. This is not a place to just yet a cheese pizza. You need to explore their menu and their specialty pies. We tried the Lamb Pizza - a white sauce with ground lamb, pesto and tabouli and the tabouli made the pizza great. But there are 4-5 other pie we would like to try - the BLT or the Jimmy Pesto (where's Andy and Ollie's pie?). Its a small place, in the Wayne State area - you can see it from the Lodge, on the East. Its clean and has a science them going for it. A pie from walking in and ordering took about 15 minutes. and they have enough places to sit down. They have Detroit "pop" flavours, focusing on the cane sugar variety. We will swing by again, next time we go down to the Fisher to see a show. read more
Pi sci me, yes please get out of that old pizza rut and try one of the scientifically composed speciality pizzas, it was pretty dam good. The combos they put together are great from the funky names to the ingredients that they combine to go with them work. We loved it, the kid that don't like pizza took a friend and they are still talking about it and can't wait to go back. Of course my veggie wife loved it, they have tons of veggie and vegan choices. And i guess i liked it to it's not your usual pizza but the flavors and pizzas they put out is worth a stop. Only going 4 because it took 40 min and the dining room kinda of sucks. read more

For an FYI Pie Sci is a pop up that resides in Woodbridge Pub on Sunday nights. If you find yourself craving a solid thinnish crust pizza on a hungover Sunday this is your spot. You won't find a hot and sweaty Little Caesars pepperoni pizza at this joint. They specialize in throwing together combinations of ingredients that may make you wonder "can you actually call this pizza?" Perfect example is The Strawberry Cough. Strawberrys thinly sliced, balsamic drizzle, chicken, basil, and garlic. Nothing else needs to be said. For those herbivores out there, this place has some unreal combinations. They also rotate their pizzas and are always throwing out something new. read more

This was our first time here. We walked in, and were greeted quickly. They have a paper menu if you'd like, or it is also on the chalk board. The menu isn't huge, but that's ok, as they do it right. There are regular, vegan, and vegetarian options on the menu. They have fountain service of DETROIT MADE pops, as well as diet and regular coke. There are tables but no table service. When your order is ready, your name is called and you go up for it. The decor is quirky, but cool. The prices are reasonable. OH,YEAH! THE FOOD! I almost forgot the food! All three of our pizzas were delicious!! They are so filling! I want to go again very soon! If you are in the area, GO TO PIE SCI!!! read more

I've been dying to go here and on a Monday at 3pm it was AMAZING. We did the Devastater vegan, and Mostaspicoli vegetarian and they were beautiful, prompt, quality ingredients, well worth the wait to come diwn (although we only waited 12 minutes after ordering). We got stuck in traffic on way home and had to re-bake in oven and still awesome. The Detroit City Soda I brought home and mixed with SOCO. Also awesome. And they use Organic hand soap. I'm in love. Make it a chain? read more

OMG, this pizzeria was divine. My son is a new student at WSU. Finding restaurants that take care of both of our dietary preferences, can be challenging at times. So excited to find a unique pizza place that has vegan options as well as options for the carnivores. Saw a sneak peak of the fall menu...cannot wait to go back!! read more

This was our first time trying this place and we will definitely be back!!! We went there for the I Bisqued a Girl pizza and we were not disappointed! I will be dreaming of this pizza. They have mastered the art of both crunchy and soft crust at the same time. I hope they bring this special back soon, because I could eat it every day! The Oooooo-BarraGouda was also fantastic, but I made the mistake of trying the crab and lobster one first, so that one stole my heart. read more
