The Detroit pizza is amazing here. Service not so much. We came as a big group of 8 and got seated pretty quickly. The first question we got asked was do we have a reservation when the first thing on the website says no reservations. So a little confusing. We got seated with cups and plates and took about 15 mins to get water. We were quick to get our orders in and good thing because our waitress didn't come back till after our food was served. Everyone's favorite was the cup winner Detroit pizza. The wood fire was not that great. They do serve alcohol and mocktails (this pregnant mama to be was excited). Although the mocktail I got was a little too sweet. I've heard another location serves by HUGE slices. Kind of excited to check that place out!
Food is great, high quality pizza you can tell is made with care . location and scenery is very nice . staff are very friendly and service is quick .
We had a lot of really interesting pizzas at Paulie Gee's and I would recommend all of them--they were all delicious. Our favorite was the quietly special: it's always bean you (really surprising, wasn't expecting to love a pizza with white bean puree). Desserts were good and the service was nice and the pizzas came out in rounds so our table was never overwhelmed with pies. Great place to come for a special pizza experience!
Love the pizza here! Best Detroit style I have ever had. I think about this pizza all the time and don't go enough. I will be returning asap!
This place will rock your socks off. 10/10 best pizza ever. Do not come here without ordering the U.S. Pizza Cup Winner--the Netflix and Chilee is great too!
Insanely good pizza and awesome gluten-free options. Detroit style is really hard to come by in Chicago and this place was amazing. I would highly recommend getting the "pizza award" pizza and I already want to go back. 10/10 The service was mid, but what can you do
Food: good Detroit style pizza, interesting seasonal flavors Service: everyone was super friendly Ambiance: cozy but gets loud
To say I'm obsessed with this pizza is an understatement. I've taken every person I know here, from both in and out of town and the experience is always the same. The no resys has never been an issue, if you're there close to open with a small party you should have no problem getting a table and even if there is a brief wait, there are so many bars in the area to kill time at you won't even notice. Or you can just hang out at the bar at paulie gees too and get full service there it's the best. The drinks are all great too, I'm a fan of the mezcal spicy marg and the peanut butter banana espresso martini is on the list for next visit. Pizza is surprisingly fast (though use your brain, if it's busy, the pizzas take slightly longer). It's my favorite pizza in the city and it isn't even Chicago style pizza but I don't even care it's unbelievable here. TLDR: I don't care what else you order as long as you get the US pizza prize cup pizza
Seven of us came for dinner on a weeknight. Service was very professional. It was interesting that they had both Neapolitan and Detroit style pizzas. All were flavorful, with the Detroit style being quite heavy with dough. The salads were fresh - we had the Gates of Eden and it was tasty and a fairly good value at $12. Other spots nearby would be at least $14 or more for the same size. We had the Hellboy Pizza which was a little sweet and spicy however we should have asked for it to be cooked really well done as it was a bit too soft and mushy. Others ordered the Fungivore and the Pepperoni - both good however they had too much dough to topping for our tastes. The bartender makes a great Manhattan. If we returned we would order the Neapolitan style wood fired pizza really well done and try some slightly more adventurous flavor combos.
