The founders are originally from Detroit and opened up a Detroit-style pizzeria in Pittsburgh, naming it as a tribute to their hometown.

"A project that started because we couldn't find pizza reminiscent of Detroit, evolved into a passion for perfecting a dough, and perhaps improving upon, this Detroit standard. The result is a pizza that is light and airy, yet has a crispy and caramelized crust, cooked in the same re-purposed, blue steel pans, from the assembly lines of the old auto plants."

The pizzeria offers a wide array of Detroit-style pizza choices, with Detroit-inspired names, including the St. Aubin Sausage, Packard Pepperoni, Woodward Ave White and Bagley Chorizo.
