Reno’s Home for Detroit Deliciousness
– Now Yours to Own
R Town Pizza isn’t just another pizza place; it’s a passion project, a celebration of Detroit-style pizza, and a commitment to serving the best square pies.
Our story begins with a deep appreciation for the unique character of this Motor City classic: the thick, airy crust, the crispy, caramelized edges, and the generous toppings nestled beneath a blanket of rich, flavorful tomato sauce.
We believe that great pizza starts with great ingredients — top-notch products sourced from trusted suppliers, prioritizing sustainability and accountability every step of the way.
We’re dedicated to crafting in-house whenever possible, ensuring the freshest, most delicious pizza experience. From our hand-tossed dough to our carefully selected toppings, every component of our pies is chosen with care and prepared with passion.
But RTown is about more than pizza. It’s about building a community around our shared love for this iconic dish – the go-to spot for gathering with friends and family to enjoy the squarest meal in town.
As we grow through franchising, we’re excited to bring our proven systems, award-winning brand, and community-first culture to new markets.

HEAR FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
According to USA Today, one of 100 best restaurants in the USA! Great lunch with great service. Way too big, so I took a lot of this home. I sat at the counter so I could watch their genius chef at work- and he served me himself! Like being at a chef’s table in the kitchen of a fancy restaurant.
Amazing gluten free pizza. We have celiac disease and had no problems because they have a separate space for gluten free pizzas. Great experience and food. Will definitely go back! Staff were very knowledgeable about dietary restrictions and happy to help.
Highly recommended this place!! The pizza is very unique and packed with flavor. We've brought several people here and they rave about it! This is an experience like no other place in Reno! This pizza is like no other pizza in the area! It's habit forming! If you're disappointed DM!
Excellent Detroit-style pizza in the Reno area. Very crunchy crust and excellent flavor. Make sure to add the hot honey, it’s an excellent addition to the pizza! The 4-Corner is definitely a 1 or 2 person pizza. It’s 6 decently sized pieces.
