Mootz Pizzeria + Bar

Mootz is downtown Detroit's New York slice heavyweight. The crust was developed with a six-time World Pizza Games champion, the garlic knots have their own fan club, and there's a grab-and-go slice counter beside the dining room for when you don't want to commit to a full table. The Bar Mootz expansion added patio and bar seating that's quickly become prime Library Street people-watching. Two practical notes regulars repeat: it's cashless, and validated parking at the Z Garage is the move. By all accounts, this place delivers.

Now, the restrooms. This is where things get more ordinary. Reviewers consistently describe the whole space as modern, clean, and well kept, and the restrooms appear to ride that wave — the amenity listings even note a gender-neutral restroom. But nobody's raving about them either, and this is a downtown spot running from lunch service straight through the midnight slice rush, so expect them to take a beating on game nights and weekends. Clean enough to trust, nothing that'll slow you down — just don't expect the extras and polish that push a bathroom score into the upper tier. Mootz Pizzeria + Bar lands at a 7/10 on Shooki.
