    Cajun pasta
    Sarah C.

    Fabulous! We actually had an "adult" birthday party of 14 that they were able to accommodate last Sunday for us. Food & service was great- JoJo, Brad and Greg were all fantastic. I was distracted, so didn't take may pics. Appe's, Maurice salads, pizza and breakfast pizza(my fav!) + desserts too! Great Detroit style pizza- we're originally from MI- iykyk. Faygo and Vernors pop/sodas too. They have GF options also. Love this place! Fun to introduce to our friends!

    The pizza was delicious! Fun menu! With lots of specialty pizza options! Service was great and the food came out fast! Definitely can't wait to go back and try something else!

    Spicy Italian sausage pasta

    Very nice, accessible spot in a steady neighborhood. The staff were so nice! Came to our table several times to make sure we were okay. We got the Texas sweet heat pizza and it was okay. Expected a crispy crust put it was pretty soggy. Ingredients were solid. Also got the spicy Italian sausage pasta and this was pretty good too, big let down was the pasta being very overcooked, barely holding its integrity when pulling.

    The Motown Supreme Pizza ( no mushrooms)
    Darelle G.

    Placed an online order on a Friday evening and headed towards the restaurant, since my drive was about the wait time. Arrived to a busy restaurant with even seating outside full! The interior was nice and clean, I walked in to the counter and the staff member was great! Super helpful and friendly, I wish I would have asked her name for a shoutout- because she was great! Drove home and dived in. I ordered the supreme without mushrooms. The pizza was ok, based on other reviews I thought the crust was going to be buttery, but it wasn't. The pizza sauce is really good, nice and tangy! The toppings were plentiful. I wasn't a dan of the pepperoni because the rind was stringy and I gad to remove it from each bite of pizza that included pepperoni. Not sure I will return but I think everyone should give it a try to determine if it fits their preference.

    Just an updated review here. Lunch special tip, get the 2nd slice for only $2 more (I take it for dinner leftovers) And-- special shout out to our waitress Candy who literally made our day by being just so sweet, friendly, funny and genuine.

    This place is a gem. The service alone yields this place a 5/5. Our server Amber exuded kindness. She was friendly, caring and truly wanted to ensure we had the best experience. Here's what we got: Apps: - potato skin chicken strips: this with the French onion dip? Top tier. We had like 3 separate servings of the sauce itself. Loved the onion bits in this. Entrees: - Biria pizza: the chipotle cream was top tier. The biria was fine, but I think the pizza is good enough without needing to dip in it. - Texas sweet heat: we subbed the pepperoni for ground beef. This was my wife's absolute favorite. Dessert: - s'mores cannoli: this was our favorite. Absolutely delicious. - Reece's Cannoli: the peanut butter in this was a tad overpowering. We preferred the s'mores. All-in-all, fantastic place. Loved the service and atmosphere around the restaurant.

    Tikka Masala w. Chicken on Detroit Style Crust
    Godley V.

    MCP is some of the best pizza we've had in the area. It's a small establishment that's always buzzing during typical dinner hours so you may have to wait a little while if you opt to dine in (note: we've been only on the weekends each time). During nicer weather, they also have a couple of picnic tables outside. The staff here are always warm, efficient, and timely to check on you. As for the food, we have enjoyed everything we've tried. Most recently, we had the The B6 as well as the Tikka Masala w. Chicken (which I believe is one of the specials in May). Both were delicious and brought out piping hot. Although it's a thicker crust, we like that it's not too dense or greasy. If you're a hungry man or teen, I don't think it's difficult to put away half of a large pie on your own. When the place is packed, you will need to be a little patient to get your food because that also probably means it's prime time for take out orders, too. Just be patient and order an app or two & a cold drink and just whet your appetite for the goodness that's to follow!

    The Detroiter.  Great sauce and cup pepperoni.  Delicious!
    Chris W.

    Great Detroit style pizza. Crispy crust and toasted toppings. We had the Detroiter . Cup style pepperoni cut into 8 squares. Perfect for 4 people. That and a couple of Detroit brews and our meal was perfect.

    Motown Salad
    Tonya W.

    MissJojo was so good, very sweet and attentive to our needs. 1st time here. Great suggestions on food. The restaurant was clean, quiet and the game was on. The pizza, soup and salad were all delicious. Lunch specials on the weekend a few breakfast pizza offers. I would recommend this spot to others who like Detroit style pizza. The wings were so YUMMY and fried to perfection JUST LIKE I ASKED!! Not overpriced and affordable enough for a family. As we sat there I watched so many people coming for call in orders. Inside area was big enough for a small group or gathering.

    thanksgiving leftovers pizza
    Lucy M.

    Dropped by Motor City Pizza late Sunday to pick up some pies to go! We've tried their frozen pizzas from Costco and H-E-B and only recently realized that they have a brick and mortar location close to where my husband plays basketball every week, so we've been meaning to stop by and experience the in-person vibes. For some reason the online preorder for takeout form stopped accepting orders around 7:15 PM but the lady who picked up the phone when I called was super nice and took my order very quickly. We arrived around 7:55 and both pizzas we got had just come out of the oven! Paying was quick and easy and we were out the door in a few minutes. Pizzas stayed warm through the 25 minute drive to a friend's place and we got to enjoy them within the half hour. We got the supreme and their current seasonal flavor, the Thanksgiving pizza. The supreme was excellent and the crust was amazing; the very center was a bit soggy on the bottom but I have to assume the transport time didn't help and if we'd eaten the pizza immediately we wouldn't have the same issue. The Thanksgiving pie was truly phenomenal!! Our favorite by far, all the flavors worked so well together and we can't wait to stop by and try some of the other creative options at this place. It's pretty out of the way for us but definitely worth it for the best Detroit style pizza in the area that we've tried so far.

    Fun Saturday night at Motor City ! Place was hopping which was great to see. We started with garden salads each were large enuff to share so beware! Then off to the pizzas! 2 large pies, the longacre (had one last week - awesome) and the special offering: chicken, artichoke , balsamic vinegar (think sweet and savory at the same time) Great pizza and a local crowd i"m hooked on the flavors and will be a regular

    Amanda M.

    The best pizza I've ever had, and the server was amazingly friendly!! The lunch special was only $7.99 for a drink, a side salad, and a slice of deep dish Chicago-style pizza.

    Sweet Texas heat added ricotta! Delicious

    Here I am again, 11 years later…read more What's good? I guess this place has made it 11 years. What's funny? The prices haven't changed, and it's likely how they've stayed open this long; margins have to be phenomenal. 1 wrap (Southwest Wrap, no customization), 1 small salad with grilled tofu, no extras or sides or drinks, $35. (Both items had protein added at about $4 each add, totaling about $14+ each, then tip is added). The inside has been refreshed since 11 years ago, that's nice. Bright, airy, clean. Can't complain. Salad was good; I like being able to make my own. Quality is fine. Grilled Tofu only gives you 3-4 1.5" (cold) squares though, should have gotten the chicken. I feel for vegetarians/vegans. I miss Salad-and-Go. Market Street doesn't salad bar anymore. Whole Foods still does and has other options, too, so it's still hard to say this is anywhere near worth it. But I guess that's the price you pay for fresh and healthy. Too bad it's out of reach for normal folks, price-wise. If the small salad was a couple bucks cheaper this could be a winner. To knock a star off, on top of it being painfully expensive, I would expect delightful service. Instead, blank stares and robotic moves; nobody likes their job who works there apparently? I don't expect fake smiles, but service is part of the cost and value add.
