I appreciate that we are always able to get in but hate that we have more than once been seated at a high top with two children under the age of 5 - with multiple empty low tops (which have often remained empty the duration of our visit). Drinks are okay, pizza is fantastic, and our littles love the shrimp appetizer! read more

Stopped in here recently for some take-out pizza with friends. Ordered online through their website, which was super easy. It had been a busy week, so they could only make 10" pizzas, no 16"s. That was alright, as we just went with a variety of the smaller pies: pepperoni was really nice and solid and classic, the roasted mushroom was delicious, though the eggplant pizza was the star of the show. Veggies were all extremely good. Pizza is more artisan/neopolitan-style than the traditional chain pie or Detroit-style pizza - definitely a unique pizza. We also got some cheese bread and arancini bites, which were both super flavorful and big hits for us. This first experience was a pretty good hit for us, and we'll definitely be back to try more of their offerings. read more

A wonderful meal at Bricks. Loved the antipasto salad. Its dressing tasted absolutely homemade and had artichokes and those little red peppers in it. Just so Yummy. The huge shavings of cheese were wonderful too. Our pizza was delicious too. We had a pepperoni and mushroom pizza. Loved the sauce and the overall taste. I would have given five stars.....now I'm going to be a "pizza snob" here....I like my crust a bit more crispy. The crust was good; but, for me, it could have been crispier. Our server was so nice too. We will return for sure. read more

Came in with a group. Restaurant was empty and they rudely refused to seat us because of reservations later? The restaurant was literally empty. We will not spend our money here again. read more

First night in Detroit close suburbs trying to find a place to eat was tough. Friday night is family night in Grosse Isle Park so we were lucky to find anything. The weather didnt help as the sky darkened and we grabbed some outdoor seats under an umbrella. We survived a few drops then the sky opened up. The staff found a place for us inside just getting vacated by a child's birthday party. She also found us some beer and took a quick appetizer order. We ordered pizza but not Detroit style. This was more a pizza we would have in Western Pennsylvania. It was really good. The crust was strong enough but sweet and chewy. The sauce was like an Italian nunni made it for the family Sunday meal and the toppings were all fresh and seasoned nicely. Everybody was Midwest nice. It was a great start to a surprising weekend as a Detroit tourist. read more

The place is pretty cool inside. Fairly expensive for the amount of pizza you get. The staff is really nice but the pizza is over priced for just decent pizza. read more

Staff is so kind and accommodating. The food is amazing. Whenever we have people visit us from out of town we bring them here!!!

Highly recommend making a reservation! Delicious drinks and great pizza! Staff is awesome, I'm excited to try their pasta next

We have been eagerly awaiting the opening of The Bricks and it did not disappoint! It was terrific! And I don't give out 5-stars often. First, the pizza. Delicious. Fresh, crispy, great sauce. We did the Pomadoro and Italian Sausage. Equally tasty--would order again. All six of us loved it. We also sampled the cheese bread to start (yum) and the antipasto. Everything was wonderful--fresh, flavorful. The hot sauce and honey on the table were nice additions. Our service was great as well--and we were there on a weekend evening. We started off as a party of three, and while we were waiting ran into some friends and asked the hostess to make us a party of six. She was great about it. We had to jump back in the queue but they were very accommodating about getting us in together pretty quickly. Nice. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable without being overbearing. The decor/ambiance is the icing on the cake. Really beautiful aesthetic-- cozy and unpretentious. Free play on video games? Nice touch ;) We will definitely be back! (and often, I think) read more

My husband and I had such high hopes but regret to say we will not be returning anytime soon. Our dinner reservation for 4 adults on Friday got us a table in the back room w loud music- but never did we expect to be listening to screaming children in an adjacent video game room. A fine location for parents but a terrible one for senior citizens. It absolutely ruined our evening as we couldn't barely hear one another in conversation. What use is good food when you can't enjoy it ? ? ? PS - Mike was a great waiter read more

The pizza is really good here!! We ordered takeout and had the antipasto salad and a pizza. The dressing on the salad was super good and the pizza was a delight. We even asked for some hot honey to try and it was very good! They sell it there and may have to take home a bottle one day. read more

Went here for date night a few months ago and was super pleased with experience. You can taste how fresh the ingredients are, which I appreciate. They're also great with allergies and, unlike many places, don't make you feel bad about asking. I have a few nut allergies and loved that there's nothing in the entire restaurant that has any included. What a relief. We both really enjoyed the cheese bread and our cocktails - I was sorry not to try the dessert options but I'm glad to have a reason to come back. Also, it's very kid friendly - I noticed a large arcade area that was separated from the main restaurant, which was surprisingly not disruptive at all. read more

The best new restaurant that has opened in any of the Grosse Pointes in the last 5 years. Great pizza and a style of pizza, Neapolitan, that is new to this immediate area. Meatball appetizer came out quickly and tasted fresh. My young kids loved the cheese pizza and my wife and I enjoyed our specialty pizza. Original cocktail menu. The arcade is a nice touch and stocked with nostalgic classics like street fighter and Pac-Man. Good atmosphere and nice interior. The patio will be packed. Really attentive service, even on a crowded night. We were there on their 3rd night open, but they were executing everything well. Hard to knock anything here. Excited to go back. read more

Love this place. Pizza is awesome. Some of my favorite in the area. For this style on Sapinos is better. Well run, good service, overall great place to have in the area. Will continue to eat here regularly read more

If I had to choose one food to eat for the rest of my life it would be pizza. Not all pizzas are equal. Bricks has good pizza. This location in Grosse Pointe had seen businesses come and go. Nothing has stuck til now. Bonuses: there is patio sitting and the bathroom was clean and the soap in the ladies room is so nicely fragrant read more

The food was delicious. Ambiance and location is excellent. Stars off for slow service and the toppings not being proportionally distributed on the pizza. Highly recommend the antipasto salad and the tiramisu gelato read more

See all

First time in for us today, and we will definitely be back. I consider the crust to be the most important part of a pizza, and the thin-crust approach at The Bricks is a winner. Toppings are sparsely applied, which is fine, but there are no "create-your-own" pizzas, which is unheard of in my book. Their cheese is unusually tasty, but it and the pepperoni are on the greasier side. That adds to the guilt factor, but oh, the flavor is really good, worth suffering a little guilt on the side. Eat a salad at home tomorrow, you'll be fine! Anxious to try more menu items ... stay tuned for updates. read more

When Bricks won a Grosse Pointe News "Best" award we decided to try them. We weren't disappointed. We ordered a large (16") pepperoni pizza for pickup, which was ready in 20 minutes. It had a thin crust with a puffy edge, had the right amount of pepperoni and tasted very good. For two of us, half the pizza was plenty for dinner and we'll enjoy the leftovers the next day. They lose a star because of minor annoyances: (1) Their website photo shows green pepper on the pizza, which we don't care for. So of course we could add a note asking them to remove it? Not on your life, they only accept online orders, there's no place to add a comment, and they accept NO CHANGES in any order, which is stupid. (2) So we phoned the restaurant, and were told the website photo is wrong, there is no green pepper on that pizza. And yes, we are not allowed to make any changes in an order. (3) The online order system told us a pickup time (40 minutes), but when when we paid they changed it to 20 minutes; in no case were we able to choose a pickup time. This is pretty primitive order-taking, they can do better than that. (4) When we picked it up they had trouble finding our order. Perhaps because I gave them my last name and they had filed the order under first names? Since ours was the only one on the counter, it should have been easy to find. Bottom line, we will patronize Bricks again, because the pizza is very tasty, so we can put up with a few annoyances. And since they also have adult beverages, we may book a table next time. read more

The food, service and atmosphere are the best. Trent and his crew do a great job. See you soon!

Really disappointed with my 24 dollar pie. Kinda burned, hard pizza base, and way too much bacon. The cheese bread didn't hold up either. Thin pizza to me always needs to be delicate or soft to get the light flavor. Bricks was hard and salty. No thanks. Hot wings were good though! read more

Incredible! Being from the Northeast I'm pretty picky about pizza and this was fantastic. I had the Philospher and it didn't disappoint. I also think the drinks are fantastic and the house infused limoncello tastes great and packs a punch! read more

Have tried this place 3 times. Each time, the pizza was just meh. Undercooked on the bottom. Toppings just thrown on pie. For the price of a pizza there, you'd think it would be on point each time. Tried talking to manager working, he was not responsive. Will not be back. read more

Pizza was one of the best. I love thin crispy crust and everything was so very flavorful. The restaurant is spotless, service is excellent, and the ingredients are so very fresh. read more

Great spot for pizza in the Pointes, offering indoor and outdoor seating. Love the patio in the summer. Fine selection of wines and beverages. They make their own dough and hot honey oil which is fantastic! We like to sit at the counter that looks into the open kitchen where you can watch the food being made and see the giant wood-fire pizza oven at work. All of the appetizers are delicious and the same goes for their salads, just yum! There's an arcade in the back making it a fun place for a date night or area to keep kids entertained. Bricks is the place to get your pizza fix! read more

We tried (2) different pizzas the same night from here. The first was the classic pepperoni. Which was very tasty, but did not have more than 3-4 pepperoni pieces the size of a quarter, which honestly is a let down for the price, 22 bucks and I can't get a lot of pepperoni??? Come ooooon. The other pizza was the Prosciutto asparagus, which was kind of a curve ball type of pizza but very good. Overall we liked the pizza, only thing stopping it from a 5 Star is light toppings. read more

We always return to Bricks. One of the best, most consistent restaurant in the Grosse Pointe area. The whitefish chowder is my favorite--we get it EVERY time. Even if it's 90 degrees and in the summer. Never had a bad pizza--Fox Hollow and proscuitto/potato are favorites. And we are newly addicted to the pastas--I can still smell the truffle gemelli pasta! Lastly, the owner, Trenton Chamberlain, is a great human. He greats us EVERY time and stops by the table to chat. He is usually manning the pizza oven or tonight was even delivering food. An involved owner means a good restaurant! We also always have great service. read more

Great pies and salad, appetizers are excellent. Good and inventive cocktails that change frequently. Owner makes the pies in front of you if you sit at the bar (safety glass in place) and loves to speak with the customers. Farm to table, always fresh. He mills his own grain. Very impressive pizza oven. read more

We loved our pizza, but get your wallet ready. $15 for a small, 4 piece pizza. And to top that off, both of my kids ordered a "pop" - which was $4 EACH! Also mentioned it was my son's birthday, which was ignored. 2 small pizzas and 4 drinks = $60 w/o tip. Good lord! read more

We brought friends here for their first time, and although the food was good and the wait staff were fine, and we felt relaxed and not rushed to get thru our meals, the ending to our evening was not good. After ordering drinks, apps, dinner and dessert, we eventually received the bill, paid it right away and were all set, taking a few minutes finishing up our conversation when the manager came to the table to ask us if we knew that there was another group waiting for our table, and that they were "pissed". Evidentially we were 20 minutes over our allotted time limit. We were not aware that there are time frames. We were basically being kicked out! We apologized, got up and left and will never go back again. read more

5 Stars for cute atmosphere! Supa cute place. I've been to pizza joints all over the US... can't say this one is fabulous. Sorry - pizza was raw in the middle (had sausage, onion). Sauce super salty as well. Couple next to us asked for ice teas only to be blown away w/ no sweetners on site. I'm ok with that but it's a bit odd. Would love to hear their rationale. Could be legit trying to not have artificial junk at their place ... which I would respect. But, it's gonna be a bit of a loss for their $$$ revenues. Good luck BRICKS - love the look of the joint; don't love your ZA. read more

Not deserving of a 3.5 Star Yelp rating, especially on an adjusted scale for Grosse Pointe! It's honestly a great spot. Lots of patio seating, great wine selection (by the glass and bottle), and really good pizza + salads. Their beet salad is one of my faves. Was truly baffled by their take on cacio e pepe, doing wayyy too much there (at least the night I had it), so I'd say maybe not a place for pasta. Which is fine because their pizza options are so extensive and the salads are legit. read more

Best pizza I've ever had. Super flavorful. And the cheese bread!! That alone, wih a salad and a glass of wine would do it for me!!

Truly awful customer service. The Bricks was supposed to cater our upcoming wedding. Trenton hasn't responded to a single email, phone call, voicemail, and numerous other messages in over a month Now. With just a handful of weeks left to our wedding date, we have to scramble to find a new caterer and are down a $500 deposit. read more

Good try but price isn't worth it. Ordered wings, a pizza, arancini and the cheese bread. Wings were dry and completely overcooked. Everything else was decent enough but we probably won't be back. For the prices being charged the food should have been better. read more

Cute atmosphere but the food needs a little work. The worst thing that a restaurant can do, especially a new restaurant, is to identify themselves as a restaurant that serves some sort of ethnic food and then not serve food that tastes like it should. Marinara is very acidic and the arancini were WAY too salty. Don't season with salt. Italians use herbs, spices, and veggies for seasoning! read more

I've heard good things about this place, we had the he meatballs which were good but you only get three. we ordered a pepperoni pizza since that should be a good showcase. It came out quickly. The pepperoni were smaller than usual with good flavor, the cheese is all cheese with no soy filler and quite tasty, the crust is thinner and a bit chewy and didn't wow me. The center of the pizza was extremely wet and soggy, I've never seen that in a pizza also there was some pooled oil from the pepperoni. Further the stand they brought to the table it's legs and the plates they give you don't nicely fit on a two person table. The pizza We got the gelato flight for desert; the gelato was very good. The cookies were very dry but not crisp. On the service front I had to ask for my check three times, not the worst problem but not what I expect. I personally won't be back, the non pizza items on their menu were good so if you stick to those you might have a decent experience. read more

Great food, atmosphere, service and drinks!! The Brinks Pizzeria is located centrally in Grosse point park off of Kercheval. The restaurant is lovely, classy and elegant! The grill for the pizzas is visible from the front of the restaurant and the bar. The food is of high quality and from a local farm. I had the whitefish soup and would highly recommend to anyone! Very fresh and tasty! read more

Amazing!! Awesome food, great menu, fresh ingrediants great staff!!! An absolute must !! Have been back 4 times, it's my go to Eastside Pizzeria!! Oh and make sure you try the Aranchini balls!! read more

Top, top, top quality pizza. Yes, it's a little pricey. They ground their own flour and make everything by hand, so the price is reasonable. We had 2 great dinners there, and were very pleased with staff. The food quality is outstanding. There are lots of inexpensive pizzerias to take your kids to, if that's what you want. The Bricks is a memorable experience for people who enjoy good food. read more

This place has great outdoor dining and indoor booths! Amazing selection of food and friendly and fast service although, the food portions are pretty small and will sometimes leave you still hungry. read more
