Lot of buzzzz around this spot right now and deservedly so. I was here on National Pizza Day immediately following the One Bite video drop the previous evening. I was about 20 back in line and Fredi ran out of dough just after I ordered. As you can see in the video the news stations were filming as the line filtered through this small pizza shop. The pizza was light and tasty with a. good crust. The sauce tastes better on the second slice after it’s had a chance to cool so be patient. The basil was a nice addition to the pepperoni. This is high on my list of top NY Style in metro Detroit. Not #1 but very high on my list. The goulash was decent but the pizza is the real deal. Service was great and Fredi was engaging the crowd despite being busy as he’s ever been. They do a lot of charity work for autism so it’s a win/win grabbing a pie here.

Everything about this pizza is perfection. Best tomato sauce in town. Good ratios. Great undercarriage and crunch

The man himself, Fredi, makes all the pies, and he's a quiet master craftsman. 84 Tigers World Series was playing on the TV too, so double win

Unreal pizza, Fredis pizza, great place great owners. Pizza was super light and crispy sauce wasn’t overly tangy and maybe could’ve benefited from more cheese but overall and 9/10 pizza!

The “Portnoy” classic was indeed exceptional and in the high 8’s but the pepperoni was only very good so I gave it a 7.9. The Goulash wasn’t for me but if you like elbow macaroni in a red sauce this is your kind of food. Reminded me of canned Chef Boy Ardi when I was a kid. I don’t care how good the pizza is the over an hour wait in the cold was not worth it. The owner and his wife could not be nicer however.

Very light and excellent char on the bottom. The owner also has an excellent charity and this is worth the stop if you’re near Detroit.

I’m not a pushover, I like to be impressed, but I’m not looking for reasons to be. Everything about this place, man. The 90’s Detroit Lions re-runs, the Christmas music, the simple, likable service. Why is there not a line down the street? Maybe it was the rain today. The pizza was crisp-obviously coal-fired- the sauce flared just enough to be a personality but not a tantrum. And the crust. Listen. Mercy. Easy upper-8.

One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. Just the right amount of cheese, sauce and toppings. Crust is cooked to perfection. The sauce is amazing too.
