Love that Detroit style pizza. The crust was thick, chewy and crisp. The marinara sauce on the top was spicy.  It was $27 for a large Mott (with 4 veggie toppings) and it was delicious. They even have vegan pepperoni. I like that the owner from Detroit makes an authentic pizza.

Normally I do not like thick crust pizza, but the Detroit style is different than Chicago style.  The pizza is airy and crip.  The staff is very friendly.  They also offer cauliflower crust pizza which I hear is really good as well. There are large TVs on one wall and have many sports showing.  I would recommend this as a nice community pizza place to enjoy a pizza and watch some sports.

Absolutely the best wings around. Chuck and Sara are the best, they always provide excellent service and conversation. The Hockeytown pizza is my favorite and don't forget the garlic parmesan fries! Two thumbs up!

On a vacation back East, my brother introduced us to Detroit Style pizza. We loved it and looked into finding a restaurant that serves it here in  the Phoenix area. We discovered this particular restaurant - The Rec - and loved it just as much! We ordered a medium pizza half sausage, half pepperoni. They use fresh mozzarella and the crust was crispy on the outside and infused with flavor. We also ordered Buffalo wings (bone in). They were delicious as well and had a slightly smoked flavor to them from also being grilled. We were very happy with our meal and will return.

We’ve both eaten at The Rec and had delivery. The atmosphere is like a cozy pizza parlor, really great for families. They have a basketball game in the back.

Everything on their menu is a tribute to Detroit, and every bit as delicious as what you’d find in Detroit. Highly recommend pizza, antipasto salad, the dough boys, and of course the coneys! Don’t give it a second thought. Eat here.
