I agree with some of the previous reviews that this place has the worst pizza ever. It has no flavor, the dough was not fresh-made, and it was chewy, like eating a piece of cardboard! The crust was over crispy and so hard to chew. It must have been coming out of frozen and reheated. And considering they actually sell frozen pizza, we believe it likely was previously frozen…. I tried to compensate by adding a lot of my own seasonings to make it more edible. We even ordered our pizza with garlic, but although garlic was visible (from the jar) it had absolutely no garlic flavor! So, the chopped garlic must have been old. It is supposed to be New York style pizza, but the way they advertised and labeled it on their menu as selling NY style pizzas is misleading. It is not even close to an original NY style pizza. It is definitely the worst “pizza” I’ve ever had. I am glad I did not order anything else. It was overpriced, especially considering the low quality we got! 100% do not recommend this place.UPDATE: Also, when it arrived, it was already cold. And we didn’t notice until later that the box had another scratched-out name written on it, then our name written next to it, which makes us suspicious that the pizza we received came out of the fridge from a previously returned or cancelled order….

The atmosphere is alright. Could use a good wipe down and push a broom and mop through. The man behind the counter was the owner and very passionate about his pizza. Very knowledgeable and personable. Slices were big, crust well done and toppings were proportional and generous. It was good new york style pizza but didn't really live up to the hype of old school new york pizza when we ate it. I'd recommend going and trying it yourself to support a local family owned business. The Detroit and thinner Detroit style (I forgot what it was called) were really good but I've had better in Edison Park. The thin cheese and spicy slice were okay. For 3 thin slices, 2 thick crust, 5 garlic knots and a soda I paid just around $38 which is alot of money for items I was a little disappointed in from the hype.

Most of the time there's good service and the food is great. There's a certain employee who always closes early and has small children there, very unprofessional. If you close at 8 then that's when you close, not 7:45.

I always laughed when people compare pizza to cardboard. I've never had pizza that tastes like cardboard. Until I had New York slices. Now I get it.
