Horrible old pizza that was not fresh in their hot case. Very disappointed. $8.75 for 2 pizzas and a drink. Not worth the money

We were in town for the polar Express and stopped in for a bite, the staff were very friendly and kind and the pizza was phenomenal. Great place to stop on and fill your belly definitely will not disappoint.

I love walking in to fresh slices at a local pizza place. It’s fun, creative, and really delicious.

They do put the Pizzaz in Pizza. All hand crafted with unique taste. Better than your average pizza place

Yep, this is it. If your momma made the best fresh, homemade lip-smacking pie with the best tasty toppings you always love and gotta have, just that aroma makes your mouth water and lean in anxious if yours is almost ready, you can see them making the dough fresh and with love and a smile to make you happy - wow so wonderful to see a crew that cares about their customers like family, because that’s what these folks make you feel like. Owner Mr. Dan, BRAVO - your food and team make a difference in this little hamlet on the bay and the world a better place.

So happy this place is still in business after all these years. It's a classic part of Elk Rapids. The folks who work there couldn't be nicer. Excellent salads, too. They even sell dough for those nights you want to make pizza at home. My only (tiny) complaint is they don't sell slices after 3pm. Sometimes a whole pizza is too much for two people at dinner.

Pizza is always amazing. Whether we just grab a few slices to go for lunch or get a few pizzas for the whole family, the quality is always great. Not a lot of space for eating there, especially during the peak summer season.

Best pizza I've ever had in my life. Hearing the owner passed away devastated me because I've been getting pizza from them for the last 20 years. However, nothing has changed in terms of taste. Still delicious as ever. And they've upgraded the inside of the shop, which is a great improvement I think.

Very good pizza! Also really glad they are still here after all that the owners have went through as well as the nostalgia of the place! Indoor seating and right on the main street of Elk Rapids.

Most delicious pizza in the region. The crust, sauce, cheese and toppings are all outstanding. Kid friendly dining space. The Chef Charles signature is really great.

The best pizza in Northern Michigan. Fantastic crust, great topics and just the right amount if sauce. People are friendly and the small town feel is worth the trip. Awesome!

Best pizza in Elk Rapids, so happy they have reopened for business! We eat here once a week and will continue to do so.

Same great taste, I was delighted to hear that this was open again. Chef Dan honors the tradition of the legendary Chef Charles by continuing to serve the Elk rapids community with excellent pizza. ? This is a must if you are in town. I’ve been eating here for 20+ years. Thank you!

Delicious pizza with the same pizazz as when Chef Charles owned it! Our family has been eating here for over 20 years. Our grandkids were raised on this pizza. We are absolutely thrilled to have it back! I’m sure Chef Charles is smiling down on our new Chef Dan. The space has been changed and looks beautiful but the main ingredients are still the same! Thank you, Chef Dan!Katie, Rick, Kristen, Shari, Ozzie, Ava Kazarian

The pizza is just the same as always, which we love! We've been going there since the mid-90s, and are so happy it's open again. Great customer service too!
