    The reg round pie slice. Very good
    Crazy Bernie S.

    Today was the day I walked in before 11am. A few minutes before they opened and Gavin was making the pies for slice sales. I had one thing on my mind since I heard about this place making Detroit style pies. I ordered a large Detroit cheese. I only ate one slice before buying a slice of round cheese to help me make a fair review. Both styles were great. With Annessos right down the street where the best pizza in Fresno is made IMO this could have been a rough score. I've eaten more pizza in my 66 years than Dave Portnoy and I lived the first 19 years of my life in northern NJ. That said 99 Craft has a very unique and delicious Detroit style pie. The puffy yet crisp crust is outstanding. The sauce they ladle over the top was so good I almost chewed my fingers off. I believe the thick crust is par baked and finished in the oven after you order. Either way I believe the Detroit style pies they churn out at 99 Craft are absolutely in the conversation of the best pizza in Fresno. I may be a retired furniture business veteran but pizza is my passion and 99 Craft is the kind of business that gets me excited. Order this pizza every chance you get. The owners name is Steve (I think) and he deserves to be successful at this daring endeavor in a town with hundreds of pizza choices. Crazy Bernie is a huge fan.

    Pinnacles PBR

    First time to try this place and I ordered the most popular pizza called Pinnacles PBR Detroit style. $22.75. I ordered for pick up and couldn't resist to have a slice before leaving the restaurant. I ended up eating there cuz it was too good to wait. I will definitely come back.

    I love this pizza and the first time I got it the same style and size it look bigger than this one this time. So I measure it to make sure. The description says 8 by 10 and this one it's a little bit too smaller. Maybe they didn't use the mold or something. I missed a little chunk. I love this pizza so a little missing it's a big loss for me. The flavor it's there and I really would like to keep on coming but please make it the right size next time. Thank you for making great pizzas. Staff it's very helpful and nice. I opened the box until I got home and didn't want to go back since I live on the other side of town.

    Build your own - medium Detroit with garlic cream, sausage, mushrooms and ricotta.

    Awesome pizza and wonderful staff! I was introduced to Detroit Style Pizza when I was living in Texas, of all places. LOL. I'm glad to have a place out here. Everything I've tried here has been outstanding. The staff is accommodating the best thing - they offer build your own with other sauce options! It works out perfectly for me since I have a tomato allergy. I also have different options of sauces not just one. I also suggest the garlic knots. They are perfect. Crusty exterior, pillowy interior. Perfect amount of garlic, herbs and other seasonings. The restaurant itself is always clean and easy to get to. They also have a great reward program.

    THE FRESNO HOME OF THE AMAZING DETROIT-STYLE PIZZA!! For two decades, 99 Craft Pizza has been serving some of the finest pizzas and crafted dishes in the area, using quality, locally sourced ingredients and hand-crafted recipes. Their Detroit-style pizzas are among the most popular items on the menu -- and for good reason. Often mistaken for Chicago's round, deep-dish pizza, Detroit-style pizza is its own delicious creation. It is baked in a rectangular steel pan, featuring a thick but airy crust with a chewy interior and crispy, caramelized cheese edges. The sauce is layered on top -- sometimes in stripes -- and traditionally uses Wisconsin brick or mozzarella cheese. I first discovered this pizzeria during a Yelp Elite event last month and had the chance to sample several of their signature offerings. The standout was the Pinnacle PBR, which left such an impression that I came back for more. On my return visit, I ordered the Valley Deluxe, available in both Detroit-style (which I chose) and round California-style. It is their take on a classic combination pizza -- topped with pepperoni, Italian sausage, bacon, red onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, garlic, basil, and house red sauce. The Valley Deluxe delivered an impressive balance of flavors and textures. The salty pepperoni, spicy sausage, and earthy mushrooms complemented the fresh peppers and fragrant basil beautifully. The crust was golden brown, light and chewy inside, with just the right amount of crisp on the edges. The sauce was rich and layered with savory, sweet, and tangy notes. Each slice looked as good as it tasted -- fresh toppings, generous cheese, and an inviting aroma. Service was friendly and attentive, matching the quality of the food. The restaurant itself is tucked behind major businesses near the corner of West Nees and North Palm Avenues. Though small in size, it is a hidden gem -- one of the few spots in the Central Valley specializing in Detroit-style pizza. Every item, from pizza to garlic bread, is prepared with care and top-notch ingredients. I only wish I had discovered this place sooner. 99 Craft Pizza is a true standout -- delicious, satisfying, and one of the best pizza experiences I have had in quite some time.

    The service was amazing! The woman who was helping us was very nice and energetic! The food came out fresh and quick! The wait was only about 15mins for all 3 items we ordered. When we got there late Saturday night (7:30pm ish) it was pretty empty with only 1 other man inside with us. It was very clean and felt very well put together! The food was excellent! We got the Pinnacle BBR (Detroit style) and the Underground Gardens (cali style) along with the garlic cheese bread. Both pizzas were excellent! The garlic cheesy bread was just alright. It sounded extremely good at the time but it turned out to be much closer to "eh". I'd get it again if I were craving cheese bread, but I would opt to skip it in general. Overall, everything was delicious and the service was fantastic!!

    Pinnacle PBR. Perfection!
    Jason L.

    It's so good to have high-quality craft pizza in Fresno! We got the Pinnacle PBR and Berry Dessert pizza. We had the PBR Detroit style. I'm not sure I've had a better pizza in my life. It was perfect for me. Pepperoni, hot honey, ricotta, fresh basil, cheese, fresh marinara. It was spicy, sweet, chewy, and maybe the best part, the crispy, caramelized cheese edges. It was the perfect pizza.

    The pizza was really tasty overall! I wasn't too impressed by the marinara sauce or the lack of flavor in the Detroit-style crust, but everything else made up for it. The garlic knots were super garlicky in the best way possible, and the California round pizza was my favorite, the mix of sweet and spicy flavors was perfect. I love how creative they are with their toppings; every slice feels like the perfect bite. The only thing that threw me off was the vibe, the restaurant looks more like a grab-and-go or order-by-the-slice spot, but the pizza quality feels more upscale. It's tucked away in a hidden location, but definitely worth checking out. With a bit more of an artisanal vibe, this place could really thrive. John, one of the owners, hosted a Yelp Elite event, but it felt like his staff wasn't fully prepared or welcoming. As Yelp Elites, we're there to support local spots and bring in the foot traffic that helps keep doors open, so enthusiasm goes a long way. I was also put off by John's comments about customer feedback. Yelp exists to help businesses stay accountable and consistent. The experience didn't feel very personal or connected; his story about 99 and Detroit Pizza came across more like a generic business concept than something authentic or rooted in passion.

    Ambiance average & service was mixed (2 ppl, one not great as he seemed annoyed & didn't know about the Yelp Elite event despite it being late afternoon on the second day but other guy was fine). The double pepperoni Detroit was good but also really salty. Would've liked more sauce too. The regular cheese was ok but the crust, as you can see, was pretty dark to outright burned. Not a great representation of the product IMO. Appreciate their participation in the Yelp Elite event tho.

    I absolutely Love this place. Location is a kinda tough to find. Food is well pried and excellent! Service is always good by the staff. Restaurant is nice with a few tables to eat there. I got the PBR pinnacles Detroit style. This is my favorite pizza in town now. I highly recommend giving this a try when you're craving pizza!

    Of course, again, I ordered my favorite Detroit style pizza, via DoorDash, the Pinnacle PBR. I shared, therefore my spouse is now a fan. Not surprised to see more patrons dining and waiting for their orders. Our pizza was ready when we arrived, served by friendly staff, and the dining area was clean and tidy. Plans to return soon.

    Classic new York margarita
    Jim F.

    Fresh, high-quality ingredients paired with a friendly and overqualified staff -- many with backgrounds in top-tier restaurants. This place delivers quality, affordable pizza that actually lives up to the hype. It's the only true New York-style pizza I've found in the area, and the owner is genuinely committed to meeting everyone's taste. Whether you're after that classic thin, crisp New York crust or something heartier like Detroit-style, they've got you covered. They also excel at specialty pies and offer great options for vegetarians. The Underground looked incredible. Don't sleep on this one -- seriously.

    Great taste. I was wondering if they can make the Detroit Style a little more crispy? But all in all still very great flavors.

    Hi! Do you have a Vegan Cheese option?

    We do! I also make a house made impossible sausage!

    Since they do not sell alcohol, would they allow me to buy a beer next door from Palm Bluff Liquor and enjoy it with their pizza in the restaurant?

    Absolutely!

    I love Heirloom. This place is definitely the gem of Fresno! It's not a fancy, high-end restaurant,…read morebut they absolutely know how to plate and make food that keeps their customer come back for more. Their dishes have their own unique twist, and while they may not always follow the traditional recipe, everything is incredibly flavorful and statisfying. The flavors are simple, approachable, and easy to enjoy. Making it a spot that almost everyone would love. They mainly focus on the new American table. A little fusion of some other ethnicity food here. They mainly focus on their limited menu and always wing it everytime. The consistency is always on point. I love their fresh farm to table ingredients. Their plate is super affordable and beautiful. AMBIANCE :: This place is always pack. The line are always long but it does move up pretty quick too. Indoor is always pack and stuff. They do have a large patio too. I wouldn't really recommend sitting out in the patio during the hottest time of the day but it's not that bad too. They do have mist and coolers outside. Artificial leaves covering up the place cools it down a lot too. The PROS for dinning in the patio is the fresh air. SERVICE : Is great. With the high volume of guest and crowed it is. They are so patient and friendly. RATE : 5/5 PLATES :: If you're undecided and wanted a little bit of everything. I recommend choosing a plate. You get a little bit of everything. Ill say everything taste generic but so good too. WOOD GRILLED PROTEIN : SHRIMP W/ GARLIC BUTTER : Their garlic butter shrimp is so buttery. It's slightly seasoned and salted. RATE : 5/5 WOOD GRILLED PROTEIN : SALMON W/ TZATZIKI SAUCE : I love their soft salmon with a lightly crispy crust. Llightly seasoned. It's not fishy and gamey at all. I love their tzatziki sauce and it paired so well with the lemon juice too. RATE : 5/5 WOOD GRILLED PROTEIN : ANCHO CRUSTED PRIME TRI TIP : Nicely seasoned and salted. It's always come out medium rare, tender and juicy. RATE : 5/5 NOTE :If you like medium rare pieces of beef. Go for their tri tip. If you wanted more cook go for their ribeye. The cons about their ribeye is that they are not consistent. You can ask to be remade but it does take them awhile to cook it too. SIDES : TEPPANYAKI FRIED RICE W/ BACON : I love their bacon teppanyaki rice. It's probably a must have everytime you go there. I love their sweet sauce on top of the rice. It's a kids favorite choice too. The sodium level is perfect. Usually bacon would overly salted it but this fried rice is perfect. RATE : 5/5 SIDES : RIGATONI W/ SAUSAGE, PECORINO : Straight up generic boiled pasta with sour tomato sauce and sausage. It's so simple but its ok. I'll say this could be kids top 2nd favorite side dish. RATE : 4/5 FOUNTAIN DRINKS :: I love their unique fountain drinks. It's mainly focus on Mexican fountain drinks. OVERALL :: Sometimes the best food isnt about being authentic. It's about being delicious, the art, and this restaurant definetly delivers. I can already see myself coming back for more!

    Updating my review from over 7 years ago. A mommy friend and I along with our 4kids visited them…read moretoday just past the 11:30am lunch hour. As usual there was a line, it took about 15-20mins for us to get to the front and orders taken. I haven't been here in years and I really missed it! Before reaching the registers our order was taken by a kind lady while we were in line. My order: salmon with tzatziki sauce, teppanyaki fried rice and rigatoni with sausage. I also ordered my kids from the lil sprouts: spaghetti with butter & parm. We requested for patio seat since we had our munchkins were with us. I've never seat in their patio area, it was wonderful! Shade, misters and ac though it was a hot 90 degree weather it was very cool and comfortable! Our food came out quickly and plated beautifully! Large portions. The food was amazing! So much flavors. The salmon paired perfectly well with the tzatziki sauce. The pasta was and the fried rice was delicious! The kids meal was also large portioned and enough for my kids to share and they enjoyed it. For dessert we ordered their frozen greek yogurt the baklava & honey was yum! Perfect treat to top our lunch! Will always recommend this place! They are Busy, but thankfully everything went smoothly.
