Located on Hotel Street next to Yakitori Hachibei and Manifest, Pizza Mamo has pizzas available by the slice as well as whole pies!Whole pies may take a while, highly recommend ordering online or calling ahead to place your order in advance. I decided to talk by to get pizzas by the slice for a late lunch. What is nice is that they reheat them in the oven when you order. I got a slice of the fungi (mushroom) pizza and a slice of the Detroit style sausage and pesto. Both were delicious!Definitely check them out if you are in the area. Cheers to Pizza Mamo!

The sausage and pesto is AMAZING. You can really taste the quality cheese and sauce. I'd definitely recommend getting Detroit style, baked to perfection, they don't skimp on the edge cheese. The regular pizza is ok, nothing too special. Don't expect fast pizza, it'll take around 30 mins from order to get your pizza. So definitely recommend calling or ordering online in advance.

Great service! The girl at the front was super nice. The restaurant is cute, small and clean. No mess under the tables either, which tells me they keep it clean! They had lots of pick up orders, which tells me this place is gooood. The pizza was 10/10. Flavor, immaculate. And the bread was soft and delicious. I'm definitely coming back here when I come back to Honolulu!P.S...you will have to wait like 20-30 mins for your pizza, because it's made fresh with fresh ingredients! But it's soooo worth it! Order on the phone if you're in a rush!

The food was good. I thought the Detroit pepperoni was tasty, but it wasn't served hot at all and I think it would've been better if it was fresher. The honeycreeper was really tasty, but if you can't handle a jalapeño it's not for you. The garlic bomb was a lot lighter than the bomb description. I think you'll be left looking for more garlic, cheese, or just craving meat. It is self serve for the most part so that was a little confusing when we had to clean up. If you are dining in it is quite warm so maybe don't stay there for too long or get your food to go. Overall it was a nice lunch, but it won't be my top choice when looking for a pizza spot.

Pizza Mamo is different from the other pizza places in downtown since they offer the Detroit-style which is a rectangular pizza with more bread. The bread is light with a good amount of tomato sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. For the NY style, the crust is thin and chewy and I enjoy the potato pizza. You can order a whole pizza or purchase them by the slice. They have a limited staff so the wait time to order and for the food can be long. I've been here for lunch and I wish they had more tables for dining in. If you have 2 people, it's easy to get a table or share a table but if you have 3 or more, it might be best to do take out or come by 11:30 am. Everything here is self service so just order at counter, pick a table, get a cup water or buy a drink, wait till they bring you the pizza(s), eat, clean up and trash your items, and leave. When I ordered online for pick up, I parked on Nuuanu Ave and made someone run into the shop to pick up the pizza since there was no street parking available. The closest parking lot with cheap rates would be the Chinatown municipal lot on Maunakea Street between Hotel Street and S. King Street. It's a few blocks over and is safe to walk during the day time but I don't recommended walking alone after it gets dark.

I was craving Jet's Pizza and if you have had them before you understand that their Detroit style deep dish pizza is very special. In Hawaii we do not have many pizza places that serve that style so I was surprised to find Pizza Mamo. After looking at their reviews online this was the best I was going to get.The location is in Chinatown and considering the street they are on, there isn't much parking close to just pop in and pick up and order. It required two people, one to drive and one to get out and grab the order.I ordered three Detroit style pizzas: cheese, sausage and pesto, and what I expressed to the person on the phone was the garlic bomb pizza if they could do it on the Detroit style which she confirmed.We got the pizzas home with still some heat to them. I was a little confused because it looked like two pizzas were the same. We ended up figuring that one was cheese and one was the garlic bomb however it looked nothing like the garlic bomb because it had red sauce all over it which we didn't want because my husband isn't a big fan of tomato sauce pizzas. I was also surprised at how small the pizza was for the price. Overall, this place did help curb my craving for a Detroit style pizza with that thick crust. I wish there was more crunch to ALL the edges and a little less fluff in the middle. It reminded me of eating aFocaccia bread, with a pizza topping. Also wish they had some homemade ranch to dip my pizza in. Too bad we didn't get the garlic bomb without tomato sauce. It would be really nice if one Detroit style offered a tomato-less option.

Quality of ingredients is excellent - too good for classic Detroit-style pizza, it fact. But it's good pizza, and satisfies the Buddy's and Jet's cravings even if it is not 100% accurate.I have grabbed slices and ordered a whole Detroit-style pizza. My go-to is to order a pizza online, eat half in the restaurant and take the rest home. It reheats well in the oven.I grew up in metro Detroit. This is a high-end take on Detroit-style pizza. It has a good balance of slightly sweet with a slight kick to it. The dough is not greasy at all, so you don't have that gross feeling like you have a tire in your stomach after eating it like Jet's or Buddy's. Pizza Mamo's dough is a little too thick and pillowy. The skin of the crust is too thin and smooth, so it's missing that crunchy, cratered feel and the grease saturating the dough. Classic Detroit style pizza has a dense crust with a thick caramelized layer and lots of grease pockets. That being said, greasy pizza is not healthy for me to eat so I feel less guilty eating here.The slices are about 65% size. I sent a picture to a friend and he said it looked like 2 slices trying to be 6.It's in Chinatown, so you'll need to grab a parking spot and walk a few blocks.

Finally had a chance to dine in. Despite the takeout snafu previously. You are back at 5 stars in my opinion!! The cold pizza slices in the case up front may look like a typical slice...but ITS NOT!! Once they fire it up for you and splash it with some sauce ( I had a sausage/pesto) OMG it is the best pizza ever. The edges are crisp, the bread is pillowy soft. It was like it came straight out of the oven. Really one of the finest slices! Guy up front doing a bit of everything and he handled it all well. If you're in the area..pop in for a slice!
