Really nice space with a cool vibe Service was great! They immediately recommend the garlic knots... And for good reason. These garlic knots are otherworldly . Huge in size and so soft and buttery. The pizza is excellent Pasta also very good read more

Pros: Staff was excellent - from host to bartender they were courteous, friendly, and efficient Garden salad was the standout - very fresh and good sized Lively atmosphere Bartender makes proper cocktails - loved the option to add mango! Cons: For a place with pizzeria in the name, we thought it was surprisingly mid. It was perfectly fine, but this city is full of great pizza and this did not really rate. read more

I was in town for a volleyball tournament and we finished late. What is the go to at that point? Pizza of course. I quickly searched for gluten free options near me and Mootz Pizzeria popped up. I ordered the Beast of Burden. It was soooooooo good. My teen daughter even devoured it and she's usually a picky pizza eater. My only negative is not ordering more food! This was one of the best gluten free pizzas I've had. Thank you Mootz Pizzeria for finding a way to master pizza for us that can't have gluten. read more

I came here for lunch with a friend. It's a very nice restaurant that also has outside seating. Bianca our server was amazing! We ordered a meat pizza and a New York adding mushrooms. Both were delicious! Excellent Italian style! Service was great and lunch went fast. Bathrooms need some attention especially the soap dispenser took me by surprise with a projectile squirt all over my clothes. read more

Overall, I'd rate Mootz around a 3.5, but giving a 4 mainly because of the excellent service and the burrata, which was definitely the standout dish. Would come back, especially for that. The vibe was lovely and fun on a Saturday night. We started with the burrata, which was excellent. It wasn't just a basic arugula and burrata situation, it was well seasoned with a really nice olive oil, lemon, and balsamic combination that made it feel elevated. It also came with baguette slices, but those are made with their pizza dough (which contains eggs). Once we mentioned my egg intolerance, our server was incredibly kind and checked with the kitchen, and they were able to make alternative slices using their gluten-free dough. Really appreciated that extra effort. The Grandma's Pizza (we did it on the gluten-free crust because of the egg) was pretty good. The crust itself was solid, especially for gluten-free. The toppings leaned heavier on the cheese than the sauce, and I didn't love the cheese as much, but it was still an enjoyable dish overall. Service really stood out -- everyone we interacted with at the bar was friendly, attentive, and accommodating. read more

This is some of the best pizza I've had and should be considered the pizza to beat in Detroit. Stopped in for lunch with a couple of friends in the late lunch hour so not many people were there. We were seated right away and our server, Katie, was fantastic. Great service. Not too hovery. No complaints. They got a large bee sting (looked very good and they said it was great) and I got a small beast of burden. It was fantastic. Little flop, dough had nice flavor, and good portion on the toppings. I was a little concerned it would be small, but it was a good portion size for one. I'm not usually a ricotta fan, but it perfectly complimented the salty meats and parm. My only negative would be the price. $20 for a personal pizza is pretty up there. However, it was high quality so I didn't feel as bad about it. All in all, a must visit. read more

This was my second time here - the first time I would've gave it 5 stars. I'm knocking it down one because there were ice chunks in my martini :( They were super busy on a Saturday night in the midst of Christmas so I didn't want to bother asking for a new drink. The pizza and vibes were amazing as usual and I will be back - just won't be getting a martini lol! Bee sting is a 10/10 - just needs a few red pepper flakes - def recommend!! read more

Really good pizza! I had a pesto slice that was awesome. Can carry out slices and sit in nearby alley or dine in.

Mootz was a great surprise. The place is a large pizza joint with plenty of seating and a large bar area. SERVICE: The team here was great. Everyone was friendly and helpful and our server was very attentive and helped me make a dairy free pizza - Yay!! FOOD: Well see for yourself. The pizzas are super tasty and the salads were fresh. This is a great pizza stop if you are downtown. read more

We stopped in for dinner and, although the restaurant wasn't particularly busy, it seemed like they were short-staffed. We ended up waiting quite a while to be seated, and several other guests were waiting as well. We ordered the garlic knots, which were very greasy--just as other reviewers have mentioned. For our main dish, we got a large buffalo chicken pizza. The flavor was good, but it was a bit too spicy for my taste. That said, the wait staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind, even with the delays. The food took longer than expected to come out, but the service itself was warm and appreciated. One thing to note: gratuity is automatically added for parties of four or more, so keep that in mind when the bill arrives. Overall, despite the slow pace and a couple of small food issues, the staff and atmosphere made it a solid experience. I'd give it four stars. read more

Team dinner this evening with colleagues, we were at Mootz for over an hour before walking over to the ballgame. Mootz is easy to get to, a short walk from the Cadillac Square People Mover Station or the QLine. There is street parking in front or paid parking decks nearby. We overfilled a booth and were warmly taken care of by multiple members of staff. Once again, I dropped off my keto diet for this goodness as we started with their massive garlic knots (the size of French croissants) before the multiple pizzas arrived. We had one with just pepperoni and that was good. My favorite was the "Bee Sting" which was topped with sausage, banana peppers, jalapenos and drizzled hot honey. Delicious, a little sticky and quite spicy. Fabulous and even better with some red pepper flakes added. Note that this is not "Detroit style" and is tilted towards what they call New York style pizza with round pie and a thinner crust. Tasty stuff and made to order. This place isn't cheap - their draft beers run in the $9 range which seems like a lot. But the food is good and the pizza is great. They also have a walk up window for just slices to go.

We got some nice weather this weekend in Detroit, so decided to stop by for a quick slice of pizza while walking around. I just ordered from the carryout single slice section, but it was really fast and convenient. I ordered the halal pie, which has halal pepperoni, jalapenos, and hot honey. The hot honey stole the show and really elevated the flavor of the pizza, I loved it and am still thinking about how good it is. I did think it was priced a little high at $6 per slice, but the sizes are generous to help offset. Overall, definitely a top pizza spot in downtown with both dine in and convenient single slice carryout. read more

NY Style pizza in Detroit? Yes! Mootz pizza is SO GOOD. Thanks to a recommendation from a friend, we stopped into Mootz on our first night in Detroit. It's located downtown and has a really nice dining area and bar. I got the bee sting pizza, which had a mix of pepperoni and hot honey. It was absolutely perfect. The crust was crisp yet tender and was so so delicious. We had pizza everyday that we were in Detroit and this was my absolute favorite. A friend got the salmon pasta and also said it was really good! You can't go wrong! All hits here. read more

This place has been recommended to me countless times, but I never got around to trying it until now! I went with some friends and we got garlic knots and various pizzas and they were all delicious. We went on weekday and the vibe was perfect for just chilling and chatting. I personally love thin crust pizza and all the options sounded scrumptious. Our waiter was really funny and definitely made our dining experience better :) read more

Located in front of the hopping Belt Alley, Mootz is the ideal casual pizza joint serving New York style pizza with old school Italian vibes. The bee sting is pretty spicy but delicious, love the thinner crust of their pizza. The garlic knots were a good starter- not sure if they're anything special that I would order again, but the marinara sauce that comes with them is SO good! The best part of the meal was the vodka pasta- that sauce was incredible and the penne was cooked to al dente perfection! The bar staff was friendly and quickly made a clean area for us even during their busy rush. There was a bit of a hiccup with the knots coming out with our food but the manager was very kind and said she was taking them off our bill. It was not expected but a very thoughtful gesture! Great food and drinks, fun atmosphere, and excellent service! read more

4 stars. Tried the Holy Cheesus--great flavor with a crispy, wood-fired style crust. Good vegetarian options, which stood out. It was busy when we went, so we grabbed bar seating (first come, first serve), but service still moved well. Mootz is known for its authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, and it shows. I'd go back. read more

Great spot downtown to stop at for a good pizza dinner. I love the garlic knots and it also has a good drink menu

Honestly I think the pizza was a tad bit overhyped. It wasn't bad at all but it tasted like pizza I could get back home in Houston. I went k a Saturday evening and it was ever busy so we couldn't dine in. I did a none order for their version of a meat lovers pizza and it was pretty pricey in my opinion (about $20 for a small pizza). Perhaps some of their other flavors may have been pre appealing but I was underwhelmed. read more

I cannot thank the staff enough. Manager Amber, did an amazing job accommodating our big party Sunday night. She was polite, kind, respectful, and apologetic for the miscommunication that came prior. The service, Kevin and his partner that night were top notch. The food, Sweet Attack, Meatza, Margherita were all amazing. Start with the Garlic Knots though, you won't regret it. Can't beat a good environment in Detroit either. The modern rustic look will always win with me. Thank you Mootz. We will be back. read more

One of the best spots to grab pizza downtown Detroit. This was my third time eating at Mootz, and it was incredible all 3 times. For apps, the garlic knots are a must, and the Italian Chopped Salad is very hearty and filling. We like to try out different pizzas every time, and there are so many to choose from. Our favorites are the Beast of Burden, Bee Sting, Fungi, and Buffalo Chicken. Great atmosphere as well, and the restaurant is very clean. We have been here on some very busy days and a slower day, but service has always been great - they are attentive, kind, and fast. Highly recommend! read more

I work right across the street at.Special Events hosted at the new Hudson building. The pizza is always very good.

Amazing pizza that I still dream about! There is a lot of seating inside and a cute outside area that's covered. We got the margarita and Italian pizzas and both were so delicious. They also have a little bar that's separate on the other side of the restaurant that has a great happy hour. Can't wait to be back next time I'm in the area! read more

Mootz promises that they got your pie right here. New york style pizza a few doors from the Gucci store in downtown Detroit. What they deliver is a decent greasy rendition of a NYC pie with flavorful sauce and authentic crispy crust. What they fail to provide is the unmistakable feeling that you get at any NYC pizza joint for the people when you order the quintessential "special" 2 slices and a soda for under 8 bucks. Instead the price is double that. Ratings: Flavor: 6 Value: 3 Atmosphere: 6 Verdict: only worth the Detour only if are in need for a NYC pizza fix. And even then. Just get a single slice and save your money for the Gucci store next door. read more

I was craving a really good Pizza and wasn't sure of where to go. So I checked out Yelp to see which Pizza location has some of the best reviews and I came across Mootz. I placed an order online for the large Beast of burden. When I got to the restaurant, there was very slim parking unless you park in the parking garage, for pick up. So unfortunately, I parked in the middle of the street, jumped out the car ran inside to grab my Pizza. When I got back in my truck, the smell just overtook me and I could not wait to get home to eat this pizza. When I got home and unboxed it, it looked so amazing, and it tasted even better. Everything from the sauce to the Italian sausage and the hits of feta was just top tier. I am now a fan. And well get my Pizza from moose, whenever I am in the mood. read more
