“ The restaurant is a must try spot. The Detroit style Brooklyn pie was delicious and the crust is cooked just right. We loved the spot so much we went back again! Great vibes, quick service and right in town. I would come here earlier than later to grab a table because they have waits up to an hour and half after 5pm and it's first come first serve. ”
“ I was traveling on a mini vacation and we ate here while trekking the million dollar highway. The food here was amazing. We got the Margherita Napoletana and it was fantastic. I wish I could ship their pizza to PA. I also got the alpengose from the telluride brewing company. It was a chill vibe with great food and a place I'd hang out weekly if I resided in Telluride. Service was nice, positive, and attentive without being overbearing. Definitely recommend and definitely will be back if I'm ever there again! ”
“ The food, the service and the ambiance!! We came on a Friday and night with a group of 12 and only had to wait 20 min! Our waitress was funny and engaging. The Detroit style was cooked to perfection! Every one I tasted was great, you can't go wrong. I recommend this spot if in the area and looking for pizza and a Long Island iced tea! ”
“ One of the best Detroit style pizzas I have had in a very long time. Cool place with great service. Tons of screens for watching sports. Good beer selection too! Pro Tip: For a quick and amazing lunch, Arrive at 11:20 before the line starts to form so you can beat the rush! KG Recommended! ”
“ After a long morning hiking, all we wanted was gallons of water and pizza, and boy was this one amazing pizza! The place was packed but they got us a spot on the second floor without waiting and it didn't take long before the pizza arrived and it was delicious. In fact I wish I had some now ”
“ I came in from Honolulu, Hawaii and happened along Brown Dog on a weekend girls trip. Our waiter made a great recommendation on the Detroit Style pizza. We tried the Pesto because it did not have pizza sauce. It was light, fluffy and not too filling. Price was great. College Football was playing, the restaurant was a little loud. Not too loud to not have a decent conversation. I'd definitely come back. Pizza was great!! ”
“ These reviews don't lie - they do have great pizzas - specially Detroit Style Pizza. Located in Telluride downtown - this place is not huge but has two- floor seating as well as bar seating. We went on a weekday evening and it was busy as it can get for a weekday. We sat at the bar, ordered few drinks while browsing though the menu which has apps, burgers, wraps, subs, enough Pizza options both Detroit-style and classic or you can make your own pizza as well. They also let you order any pizza in any style. Being from NJ , we were not sure about ordering Detroit-style pizza but our bartender suggested to give it a try. So, we ordered a small Detroit-style pizza and it was one of the best pizzas I ever had - crisp, fluffy and not too heavy. We liked it so much that we ordered cheesy Garlic bread in the same style. ”
“ Needed a quick snack before we continue our road trip. Bookmarked this whenever we were in town and here we are. We sat outside and people watch like we always do. Staff were friendly and quick to help us get seated. Mid afternoon, not a lot of people but enough to make you want to check this place out. We ordered a small Parma Italia to share and it was just perfect. Actually if it was up to me and my body, I'd want the whole thing to myself lol. I'm starting to like Detroit style pizza more and more! I wish they have a Brown Dog in our area. Every bite was perfect and arugula just made it so much better, that bit of freshness that lightens the palette. ahhhhh.....dreaming about it again. Boyfriend scarfed up that two pieces in no time! I actually gave him a part of mine since it was cut up "evenly", hehe. I was just being fair. Loved loved loved this place! Will have to come back when friends visit. ”
“ Conveniently located on the main drag with a friendly sport bar atmosphere and options to seat outdoors, indoors (upstairs, downstairs in a booth or a table). Service is friendly and fast. The pizza dame our bubbling fresh and the crust was crisp! The prices in telluride are generally high and that's reflected here as well. A bit on the louder side in terms of being a bar / pizza joint but enjoyable and friendly ”
