Edit: after today's second visit, I must change my rating. 'Bright lady Lamia' pizza was amazing, cocktail was great (although served in a beer glass). They deserve 5*. Thank you!
This place looks like your average local pub from the outside so I never paid attention to it for past few months I was walking around almost daily. However once I've learned they serve Detroit style pizza I had to pay a visit. We did not have a reservation on friday evening but I guess we got lucky, most of the tables were full or reserved. We got ourselves Dominik Hašek pizza (marinara+cheese), mix of fries, bombadill sauce and beer. The beer was great and cheap, the fries were pretty good with the amazing dill sauce and I appreciete the option to make them in tallow or vegetable oil. The pizza was good and definitely filling for 2 people, however it was not amazing. It tasted pretty similar to deep dish pizza I offen make at home for fraction of the price. My main issue was the extra cheese they put around the sides (like on the sides of the baking sheet, not on top of the pizza) which makes the corners taste like deepfried cheese. It is good for 1-2 bites but than the flavor gets overwhelming and almost disgusting. I enjoyed the loud, busy international atmosphere which kinda reminded me of a hostel lobby (in a good way). The air inside was unfortunately heavy with smell from the kitchen. The staff does not speak czech, which was unexpected at first from the 'U Kurelů' sing (I did not make any research beforehand). I will come back to try some of of...

This crew have done such an amazing job of creating a wonderful spot. The staff are kind & charming and you feel it as SOON as you walk in.
It’s a bit shocking how often I think about this Detroit-Style pizza (I felt it was important to put that because I know Pizza purists will have something to say). The dough is super flavourful and the topping pairings are creative and delicious. The Unacceptable is a favourite: Italian Sausage, Pickled Jalapeños, Habanero Honey & Lemon Curd (yes, THEY DID THAT) and while it might not be a common combo, it ABSOLUTELY works.
I would 100/10 recommend you go; get a pizza & a cocktail (also creative selection and flavour pairings), and for the love of god, after that, make room for dessert. Check the board to see what cake they have and then order it. (And don’t share it if you are in a group, everyone should get their own.)
I have also ordered it for delivery on a couple of occasions and let me tell you, that FRICO (google it) stays crispy. Tastes just as great as eating in.
I love this place and if I could give it 6 stars for Food, Service and Atmosphere, I...

It is different, yet delicious and I highly recommend trying it at least once in your life.
I loved their staff who took their time and were patient with me, helping me understand how to choose, explained what behind all the toppings names was, approached in the middle of your meal asking if everything was all right.
Trust the menu and the staff, the pizza is extremely rich in flavours and "heavy", so I recommend not having 1 pizza for 1 person even though you may be super hungry. The pizza is loaded with a lot of cheese and the tomato sauce comes on top of it. It looks a bit like focaccia, but the dough is different. The corners with baked cheese from the pizza pan are heaven!
Chilli oil available on the tables - fits great with the pizza.
The place also organizes quiz evenings.
Overall a pleasant place with interesting forest decorations/paintings on the walls...
