    Italian Beef Pizza
    Jeremy P.

    Unc's Pizza has only been open about a month, so don't just walk by -- stop in! The Detroit-style Italian beef pizza was excellent. Great flavor, and the giardiniera had just the right amount of spice without overpowering the pizza. Adam behind the bar provided excellent service and made the whole experience even better. Definitely worth stopping in and giving this new place a try. I'll be back!

    Well well well. This is a city full of great pizza and along comes another one. We are spoiled in Detroit. We stopped by before the baseball game and enjoyed the lively, casual atmosphere. The pizza is a six-slice square and the menu is broken out by red pizzas and white pizzas. For me...a pizza has to have red sauce. The "Spiccoli" pizza was delicious - perfect amount of fresh veggie toppings and enough cheese without it being smothered. Pepperoni was nice and crispy. Add it to the growing list of downtown pizza options.

    Go!!! You won't regret it. It's soooooo freakin good. We were visiting Detroit for the weekend and looked up pizza places near our hotel. Unc's popped up - 8 min walk from where we were staying. It was so good, we went back the next night for dinner. It's a nice, open diner vibe. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. The pizza is amazing! The crust is literally perfectly crunchy and flavorful. The wings are seasoned so well and they're not dry! The fries are sooooooo good!! Idk what the seasoning is but they're addicting. And whoever has the aux cord, amazing! They're playlist is so good! We will definitely be coming back each time we visit Detroit.

    This place was really great. I was sceptical as I feel like Detroit has so many great Detroit style pizza places, did we really need more. I was very pleasently surprised when I came apon unc's,it has that great retro vibe with bright red tiles and spacious restaurant with lots of seating. The bartender Brye was fantastic and the drinks were super yummy. Loved the marinated tomatoes, the Caesar salad was good huge portion definitely sharable(Beware the croutons will break your teeth eat with caution would have been better crushed) The pizza was the star of all the things I tried. The gargamel was so good the mushrooms were locally sorced and the whipped goat cheese was the perfect thing to tie the flavors together. My partner got the pink room and really enjoyed it. Definitely check this place out if you're downtown. They also have an area for carryout and slices to go.

    Cheese Bread

    Stopped into Unc's Pizza with Jordon and had a great visit. We were seated at a high‑top, and Drew took care of us with friendly, attentive service. We ordered the Dim The Lights and The Starling, along with the Cheese Bread and The Spiccoli. Everything was flavorful and well done. The space has that casual Detroit energy that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy good pizza and good company. Consistent, solid spot.

    We went late (like 9pm) after a concert on a Friday. The hostess was super friendly and there was a fair amount of people dining in. Cute spot, comfy booths, not too bright or loud. Good atmosphere! Our server was working alone - the whole room aside from the bar was hers because no other servers showed up. We got a little bit of insight, but we all know how hard days like that can be. She was so sweet and busted her behind to get everybody everything they needed. It all took a little while, but it was a date night so we weren't in any kind of hurry! Had a Paloma (delish) and a beer and split a pep and mush pizza. Loved trying Detroit style za in its home place! 10/10 no notes. So good we took the leftovers back to the hotel with us! If both recommend it and go again if I'm in the area again. Maybe just don't be in a hurry and tip your servers well! (Sorry I forgot pics of the pizza!)

    After walking around downtown, we decided to look for a pizza spot, and seeing that this was a fairly new place, I definitely wanted to give it a try. The inside is a bit on the smaller side and could fill up pretty quickly when there's a Tigers or Lions game happening. The pizza was good, although it was a little greasier and not quite as doughy as I normally like my Detroit-style pizza. Still, it was very tasty. Service was quick and great, and there's also a bar if you'd rather sit and have a drink.

    First time checking out UNC Pizza and it was a pretty good spot. It's a smaller establishment with no TVs inside, but they do have patio seating and a full bar. All the pizzas come in one size, Detroit-style square pizza with 6 slices. I went with the Spicy Boi and it was really good. Definitely had some heat to it and lived up to the name. I got seated at the bar and the pizza came out in about 15 minutes or so. Overall, good experience for my first time. Nothing over the top, just a solid pizza spot and I'll definitely be back.

    This pizza was incredible. Don't remember the name.

    Solid service. Liked the vibes in the place. We did the breadsticks and 3 pizzas. There was one pizza under the white pizza section that had pineapple on it. Absolutely great. Would go again next time I'm in Detroit!

    Some of the best pizza I've ever had. Unreal crust, and make sure you dip it into their house-made chili crisp!

    Cheese pizza. Ridiculous how good it is.

    They opened yesterday. I'm from California and was just taking a walk near my hotel and came here because it looked cool. This pizza is insanely good. Wasn't sure what Detroit Style pizza was but now I'm obsessed.

    Chicken Parm pizza and a build-your-own charred-cup-style pepperoni pizza with banana peppers with an Aperol Spritz from the bar.

    A great casual pizza option in the Capitol Park neighborhood, adjacent to the ultra-lux Prime and Proper. There's a variety of interesting red and white pizzas as well as the ability to build your own Detroit-style pie (one six-slice size only) Our server was attentive and helpful and the host greeted us and checked on us. It's also nice that there's a full bar and cocktail list. If you're looking for those crispy cheese-laden edges you won't be disappointed. I'll definitely be back again. The tomato-red interior is naturally-lit by enormous floor to ceiling windows. There are a few booths for 4-person seating, bar seating, one larger round table, and the rest of the seating is composed of two tops that can be configured for any size group. I do wish they had a bike rack and some outdoor seating...but maybe that will come soon.

    Cheese Bread

    Got seated immediately beat the crowd by only a few mins before the Lions game. We had the Pink Room pizza & cheese bread both were delicious. Cute decor bathroom in down a flight of stairs also very cute decor. Was noisy with a full house but quite enough we could hear each other talk at the table

    Wow! We had a fabulous time at Bar Pigalle, drinks and food were very delicious, service was…read moreexcellent and the ambiance is upscale but not stuffy. The restaurant was getting full by 6pm, so having a reservation is probably best. We finally got a chance to eat here and decided on the Tasting Menu ($95/pp, the whole table has to have it) because a lot of the dishes were items we were already looking at. We started off with some drinks, all the drinks were well balanced and not too sweet-perfect. For Tequila: Good Behavior & (Mezcal): Better Off Red were super delicious. Note for the tasting menu (for the 2 of us), they plated 1 dish per course so just note that you do not each get a separate plate so I'm assuming the portions are double (although I wonder what they do for a single person and the whole trout...). I guess it's nice to share a plate so my hubby could enjoy more food but seems like a lot of plates and silverware getting used/changed with each course so it makes me wonder why each person doesn't just get their own portion. Anyway, first course: I don't really like scallops, but these scallops was cool, refreshing with a very mild scallop flavor so I really enjoyed it! Second: tomato tart with goat cheese +heirloom tomatoes salad (very good), Third: Ricotta Gnocchi (YUM), a lot of pancetta pieces, Fourth: Whole trout (the chef removed 95% of the bones, yay, loved that. It was pretty mild taste which was overall good, I liked all the different mushrooms that came with it & Last: Banana Split- feels healthy with the banana there and wow, the cherries look like Luxardo ones. Honestly, this was a good amount of food (I wasn't overly stuffed thankfully but full). I would definitely recommend the Tasting Menu (note, no modifications/subs allowed) and was glad we ordered it. The pacing was not hurried (we were not in a rush), but they can definitely accommodate (bring 2 courses out at a time), if you need to be somewhere by a certain time for a show or game. They also have a free parking lot (fenced in)! We will most definitely be back, it was an amazing night at Bar Pigalle!

    I absolutely love this place! The food was delicious across the board. The butter had a wonderful…read moresweet and spicy kick, and the salad was incredibly fresh and light. Both the steak and fries were cooked to absolute perfection, as was the gnocchi. To top it all off, our server was wonderful. Highly recommend They did provide a sweet birthday crème brûlée!
