Pizza Grace

Let's Talk "Pizza Grace" . I came back Just to see if fate would give birth to the came child over again, and guess what? IT SURE DID! Let's start by introducing our Server: Calvin, he is the most powerful whisper, I've ever met as a Server. He's there always at the right moment, and I was never left wanting for anything. Mushroom Toast, (Hot Honey, Olive Oil, Dipping Sauce) game changer. Pepperoni Pizza ✅. This is: ("Serious Pizza") Sophisticated without being Stuffy, Complex but not out of reach. I'm going to add this as a side note: If you enjoy taste profiles "Pizza Grace" is out of the box, and so good they should be rude and snobby about it! More then we should ever expect! Great price point! And the atmosphere is full of Grace. So if you want to experience "The Holy Grail of Pizza", Thou Shalt Go There, And Not Any Further! 😇. Thank You Calvin... You Guy's get Five 👑👑👑👑👑's.

We stopped in here for lunch with some family. They were very helpful staff and very accommodating to our larger group. The pizza was amazing and I filled up a lot faster than I expected. My husband and I split the larger margarita pizza. It was absolutely delicious! Would definitely return here. The atmosphere was great with both indoor and outdoor seating. They also have the local brand “better kombucha”. I highly recommend the ginger flavor. Thanks for making such high quality pizza we all so enjoyed it.

Very good food and service. We sat at the bar where you can see the pizzas being made. We got the garlic bread, which is a must get, along with the White, Chorizo, Braised Beef, and sweet potato with bacon in 2 pizzas. We split the two pizzas into 4 different flavors, for a $5 upcharge. All were very good and cooked to perfection. The sourdough crust provides a crisp and airy pizza. The environment was lively and fun. We will definitely be going back soon!!

omg this is actually the best lunch i’ve had in so long! the margarita pizza, puttanesca pizza, and caesar salad are all SO good. the caesar has great flavor and has the perfect amount of dressing. the pizzas have an amazing crust and are spectacular. the outdoor space is so nice and our waiter was great. the food came out hot and quick as well.

First of all, the staff was incredible. So friendly, so helpful. 10 stars for the staff. You walk up and you just smell the fresh dough cooking! We sat at the bar that looks into the kitchen. It was a vibe. The crust is so soft and bubbly, with a good crunch on the outside. And dipped in the ranch!! Ahh so yummy. Not greasy, everything tasted so fresh. One of the best pizzas we’ve ever had. A must try

Great pizza! Their garlic flat bread was amazing. The only thing I could say that wasn’t a positive is—I didn’t see a restroom in the place! Save room for desert, the gelato place right next door is worth it!

I ordered carryout & selected the white pizza & added mushrooms. It was delicious, but I feel like it would have been even better had I added a salty or spicy meat as well. They placed the arugula on the side so it didn't wilt, which was super smart. I also grabbed a marinara dippy sauce for the crust. It all went together well. I was delighted by the pistachio tiramisu! The BEST kind of ANY tiramisu I've EVER had. The staff were ALL highly attentive & polite. Highly recommended. Next time I'm in Birmingham, I'll certainly be back! 5+ Stars!

First visit. Weekday lunch. Pizza was almost completely lacking in cheese. Mentioned it to the waiter when he came to check back and got no reaction other than a shrug of agreement and oh well guess he needs to put more cheese on the next one. I had the Margherita, the other person in my party had a different pizza and it was fine.

Stopped by on a Tuesday evening. Restaurant was busy but luckily had 2 seats open at the bar. Service was great - our waitress was friendly and checked up on us throughout our meal. We ordered the Garlic Bread with a side of Marinara sauce as well as the White Pie with Sausage added. Everything tasted great and fresh. Didn't feel too heavy. Overall, I would highly recommend. Parking: Nearby street parking and paid parking lots nearby.

Good ambiance and service. We went with a large group and our server provided great service. Since we had a large group, we got to taste much of the menu. Pizza was good but didn't live up to the expectations going in. I wish they had more non pizza entrees on the menu. Overall a solid dining experience in a great atmosphere with excellent service.

This use to be our favorite date spot... Now under new ownership... It's no longer pizza grace, but more like pizza disgrace. One of the best things on the menu was the garlic bread, now it's a cheap pizza dough drenched in cheap olive oil and parsley with cold cheese dip that reminded us of the liquid on top of cottage cheese. Sometimes, you don't have to reinvent the wheel, the wheel was working. Our pizza was burnt to a crisp, which I'm okay with, but that shouldn't be standard. A lot of the OG employees are gone, it's not about the customer service, they're all wonderful. It's because the quality of food has tanked. I'm heartbroken to even write this review, because from being a James Beard award nominee to what it is now, what a shame.

The sourdough pizza crust is so good and flavorful. The sauce was amazing as well! Everyone who worked there was so nice. The interior is beautiful and it is located on morris which makes it so easy to go to so many other stores/bars/desserts places afterwards! I will definitely be coming back to pizza grace.

Delicious food! Cool ambiance and the service was great! And I loved that even after eating pizza I didn't feel bloated and gross! Huge plus for me! Had the Caesar salad, margherita pizza, and sparking water.

Pizza Grace just opened under new ownership, and it is still delicious. Tucked into mercantile, it offers both indoor and outdoor seating, which is perfect for summertime. Our service was attentive and efficient. The white pie was our favorite for tonight. We tried the watermelon granita which was so refreshing. The pistachio tiramisu was delicious, but the pistachio flavor was not coming through as much as we thought it would. Also, they're collaborating with GoldenAge for the wine list - how fun!! Everything is so delicious, but this is an expensive za outing.

This past weekend, we went to Pizza Grace because the original owners sold it to the owners of Big Spoon Creamery. So, out of fear and curiosity, we wanted to see if our favorite pizza place was still our favorite pizza place. Let's just start. The garlic bread--they switched the focaccia with pizza dough, spread fairly thin so it was light and crispy--and they swapped the garlic oil for garlic butter with herbs. This was actually really good! We both enjoyed it and thought the flavor of the butter was way better than the original garlic olive oil spread. However, I think they should have kept the focaccia bread and just swapped the olive oil with the garlic and herb butter. That would have been an easy 10/10. But unfortunately, even though it was still very good, it gets an 8.5/10. The pizza itself was still basically the same. We got the pepperoni pizza. Upon arrival and tasting, we could tell they cut back on the red pepper flakes, which we were both happy about. Our main issue was the fact that we could tell, visually, the pizza was smaller and not as big as it used to be. We didn't like that we were paying basically the same price for less pizza. I'd recommend either making the pizzas bigger again or lowering the price. This also would have been a 10/10, but we're taking off points for the pizza being visibly smaller and giving it a 9.5/10. For dessert, I got the Big Spoon Bar, which has fior di latte, salted caramel, TCHO chocolate, sea salt, and hazelnut in it. No notes here--easy 10/10. I literally could not complain. First bite was heaven! All in all, this was very good with only a few minor disappointments. Is this still my favorite pizza place? Yes. Will I return? Yes, I will--but I also think it depends on whether they adjust the price or return the pizza to its original size. That's literally just how we feel since we've been going there for years. I highly recommend you guys go check this place out. Tell them I sent you!

really loved this meal! unique flavors and fresh ingredients! It was a bit pricey for what it is but still good nonetheless.

We had a great evening dinner here. We started off with a garlic bread with the stracciatella cheese dip the flatbread on the same sourdough as the pizza and is very good. I'm not a fan of the cold cheese dip. We ordered half of a peaches & prosciutto and half a mortadella. The pizzas were so different and very delicious. The desserts we great. We had the pastacio tiramisu and the watermelon granita. Outstanding finish. Chef/owner Ryan dropped by our table to say hi and asked about our experience. Try it.

Checked out Pizza Grace since the new change in ownership, and we are still big fans! We loved that there were more menu options, with the same fabulous quality of Pizza Grace from all along. We tried the new Chorizo Pizza, and it has got to be in the list of top pizzas we have ever had. We definitely miss the community table of the old Pizza Grace, but overall we are excited for the changes!

This pizza was good and it was different to have pizza with sourdough. The place is clean and the staff is friendly. This size is enough for two people. The sausage was really good and it took the pizza to another level.

I got a half white pie, half veggie pizza. It was good. 6 larger size slices. Definitely enough for 2 ppl. Pizzas range between $25 - $31. The crust is sourdough and on the thinner side. Adding fries and a salad would have been an additional $31. I did not. I recommend the pizza if you're in the area.

Grabbing dinner here tonight with a friend from out of town and was thoroughly impressed. I had recently saw that they were in the process of undergoing new ownership and wasn't sure if it was in place yet. Pizza is their staple and they take pride in their sourdough pizzas. I opted to share a half Italian, half Pepperoni pizza and it did not disappoint. Serving size was great - 6 slices but easily can feed 2-3 people depending on how hungry. We also got a side of hot honey which was fantastic. One server was attentive and the overall ambiance was great for a pizza shop. Service was quick and we overall enjoyed things

Very cute and clean atmosphere with very helpful and kind staff. Great place for a cheap date night. The pizzas are huge and we even took home a couple slices. The crust is airy and crispy, and the ingredients are great quality.

Pepperoni and White pizzas were both great. Crust was indeed the best sourdough pizza dough crust I've ever had. Waiter was friendly and the service quick. Only four beers on tap. And my glass of wine was about a 2.5 oz pour--literally 1/2 of a normal pour for $12. Crazy. And, after spending $25+ per pizza, you'd think you could get a tablespoon of hot honey for less than $3. At least the red pepper flakes were free.

If you're nearby, check out this new pizza spot. The pizza was very good, and all slices come at a single price, which makes things easy. The place is clean, safe, and welcoming--worth stopping by.

Excellent pizza Chewy crust cooked perfectly Went early and did not have to wait Gelato next door for after!

New owners and menu are wonderful. The renovation inside is great as well. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

AMAZING!! Great pizza, cute aesthetic and awesome apps! No complaints. 10/10 recommend the loaded wedge potatoes were tasty, light and fresh! Also, trust them when they say you can definitely split a pizza for 2!

This pizza place was located right below where we were staying for a one night stop over. We ordered this pizza after already doing a full food crawl as people could not stop talking about how great it was. Thank goodness we did!! We got a pepperoni and it's the perfect pizza for me. The sourdough is chewy but crispy, the pepperoni is like charred in a beautiful way to make it crispy. We ate it for breakfast the next morning and it was just as good!!

The food? Incredible! I believe the pizza crust is made with sourdough and it was perfect. Everyone who worked there was kind, attentive, and helpful. The vibe was very relaxed for a Friday night. I very much enjoyed it!

This is one of our favorite spots to grab dinner. The outdoor patio, the golden age wine, the service, and as a plus we always end up running into someone we know. I recommend the Cesar salad and the mushroom pizza for sure. I love how the Cesar salad is crisp and has a little twist to it.

Finally tried this new trendy pizza place in Morris Mercantile. It's a cute little spot downstairs. It's not suitable for large groups but does have outdoor seating when the weather is cooperating. The menu is small but offers good pizza options for everyone. We went with cheesy garlic bread and the white pizza. It was tasty!! The crust is slightly dark because of the wood oven but it's good! Pizza was large enough for two with leftovers. Service was great and prompt. Overall it was good but it was pricey. Almost $70 for a pizza, app, one beer and one glass of wine. It's a fun night out spot but not sure if I'll frequent it honestly.

I think where this place really shines is it's ambiance and *sauces*- weirdly enough! Pizza Grace is a hip pizzeria that I adored the vibes of, especially so late in the night. The place can feel a bit cramped when packed but that still somehow made it feel super lively and open? The seating arrangement is done in the perfect way to where, although it could be packed inside the small space, you'd never bump into anyone or feel like it's too loud. The pizza was decent- fresh tasting marinara and cheese on a gorgeously charred crust, but it did feel a bit lackluster in flavor. That's where the sauces come in hehe. There's a variety of dipping sauces you can purchase to get on the the side of your pizza and MAN do these pack a punch! Regardless of what pizza you get I highly suggest you get a few sauces to share to really amp up the taste. The coffee I got wasn't great. Super dull and the whole milk left a weird taste in my mouth. Sugar didn't change the flavor at all but I didn't want to add too much. But also not entirely sure why I got a coffee with my pizza at 9pm!

I was so excited to try this place because lots of people had been talking highly about their pizza. The restraint is small, but still has enough seating for a decent crowd. The first time I went, the service was great. The pizza was mediocre at best, the crust was burnt and overall not very appetizing. I decided to give them a second chance about 2 months later, and again the service was great. The food was still a major disappointment. The pizza was again nearly burnt to a crisp and I didn't eat more than 1 slice. We decided to finish our evening at a different restaurant.

Had a great experience. The pizzas are amazing. The apple and prosciutto was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Love the Morris Ave vibe. Congrats on the Bib Gourmand. Well deserved.

Dropped by with some friends and we shared a couple of pizzas. The crust was the standout super light, a little blistered from the oven, and held up well under the toppings. I got the mushroom one, and it was earthy and delicious without being too heavy. Service was friendly and pretty fast considering it was a busy night. I liked that the staff seemed to actually enjoy working there adds a good energy to the place. Music was playing in the background but not too loud. Prices were fair for the quality. I'll definitely be back for another slice.

One of the best pizzas I've tasted. The sourdough crust is phenomenally delicious. Service food suggestions were great, everything the server recommended was awesome. The service was excellent.

As good as pizza in Italy! Our family got back from Italy a couple of weeks ago and we miss the food the most. I saw this place on Instagram and decided to surprise my husband & son tonight with pizza here and gelato next door. This crust is like the crust on pizza in Italy. The sauce tastes so fresh, just like in Italy. We had the loaded potatoes as a starter and they were potato fries/wedges fried in beef tallow, which I was very happy about. They were delicious and didn't leave us with that heavy, gross feeling that most fries do. Everyone that worked there was very friendly. It's small inside, but a cool vibe and you can see into the small, clean kitchen while they work on the food. For the few people that gave this place a bad rating, I feel sorry for them that they don't know what good, quality food is. I guess they think Papa John's is good pizza.

The pizza here is truly something special! The crust is crispy on the outside, soft inside, and the toppings are always fresh. I especially loved the chesse- so simple, yet full of flavor. The staff were kind and welcoming, making the whole experience feel homely. I went with my wife last weekend, and we already plan to come back with friends.,

One of my favorite pizza places! The crust was crispy, the toppings were generous, and the sauce was flavorful. The portion size was just right, and the service was quick and friendly. The place had a fun, casual vibe.

New ownership has this place rolling! Service is awesome and pizza is good. Don't expect domino's options or prices, but if you want a true craft pizza in a cool setting I'd recommend!

Amazing pizza! Great spot for dinner with a date or with the family. Excellent service

IT's BACK and i'm back for the second time. After being closed for a season of reimagining, Pizza Grace is back--and better than ever. Tucked in the heart of Birmingham, this spot has returned with a vengeance, setting a new gold standard for artisan pizza in the city. They've completely revamped the experience, and it shows. Everything--from the menu to the service--feels thoughtful and dialed in. But the real star? The crust. Their 100% naturally leavened sourdough crust is nothing short of remarkable. It's light but chewy, blistered in all the right places, with a deep, fermented tang that makes every bite count. It's the kind of crust you don't leave behind. The White pizza is an instant classic--simple, elegant, and wildly flavorful. Creamy without being heavy, and somehow still bright. But the secret weapons? A drizzle of Eastaboga hot honey and their roasted garlic ranch. That combo? Ridiculous. Sweet heat, garlicky richness, a little zing, all playing beautifully off that sourdough base. It's the kind of bite that stops the conversation for a second. Service was fantastic--attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they're serving. You can tell they care. This isn't just pizza; it's a craft. Pizza Grace isn't just back--it's evolved. And it's easily one of the most compelling food experiences in Birmingham right now.

Pleasantly surprised by this cute restaurant. Both indoor & perfect outdoor seating. Some of the best pizza I have had. Excellent service! Highly recommend!!

Wonderful pizza. Service was good and quick. Stopped in for dinner and was not disappointed with the spur of the moment choice. Char was really good and each ingredient was treated with respect, bonus for being locally sourced.

Found in mercantile row, Pizza Grace is a fun, casual spot for dinner. If you like a nice soft bready pizza, this is the place for you. The garlic bread appetizer was delicious and there is a good selection of specialty pizzas. The white pizza was our favorite. Extra points for the tiny pepperoni! Whether you wanna get a pie to go, or tuck into a table, the workers here are so helpful. One of our new favorites for sure!

The service was great! It was our first time so they gave us a heads up that the pizza is known for being charred and we could order it more lightly cooked. Despite ordering our pizzas lightly cooked, they were still pretty charred. Regardless, it was high quality pizza with fresh/homemade ingredients. The one area I'd recommend for improvement is with the drinks. You get a little 6 oz glass of room temperature water. It would be nice if they left a pitcher of water to refill it because it wasn't realistic for our server to come back every so often to refill these tiny glasses. My mom asked for a larger glass with ice water which you'll see in the photo, next to the smaller glass they bring water in. One of us ordered unsweetened tea which was good, but it was only maybe 6 ounces as well (not counting ice) and REFILLS ARE NOT FREE. I think it would go a long way for that policy to change. I get they need to be profitable but charging 3 ish dollars for 6 oz of tea with no refills feels like they're nickel and diming their customers. Not great for business. Overall we enjoyed it but wouldn't go out of our way to come back.

Every time I come here for lunch the pizza is great. Everyone is friends and the ambiance is nice with the music playing. Service has always been on point as well. Definitely recommend this place. It is a little tricky to find.

Best pizza in Birmingham!!! If you're willing to splurge, Pizza Grace would be at the top of my recommended list. Yes, I did spend $40 (after tax and tip) on one pizza, and yes, I would do it again. There is so much flavor in each bite and everything tastes so fresh! They locally source a lot of their ingredients and produce which makes me love them all the more. The inside isn't anything special but it is located off Morris Ave, which is a cute gem in downtown Birmingham. Looking forward to coming back and trying other pizzas!

First things first the pizza toppings and salads are fresh and from the local farmers market. The pizza crust is like no other it's very unique and good. I could come here just for the salads and be satisfied. The salads combinations will have you trying to make them at home. The owner is very personable and so sweet she is always there to help.

Best pizza in Birmingham and very excited they have rolled out new lunch menus. You can also order ahead for to go with the toast app.

Pizza grace is by far one of the best pizzas I've had in Birmingham! The first time we came here, I thought the pizza was a bit too charred for my liking and made it taste slightly burnt but I've discovered you can ask for "light bake" which makes them come out perfect! I feel like they have different specialty pizzas every time I come here because I've definitely tried out so many different toppings and flavors! Service is very quick and the restaurant itself is very casual (I've walked in with scrubs before). It's located right next to a gelato place so you can top off your lunch/dinner with some delicious dessert! Will definitely be back!!

I'll be honest with you... I'm not sure I really get the "hype" of this place. We were downtown for a concert and a lot of our normal "go-to" places had an hour plus wait. So we pulled up Yelp and found this place. 1) teeny tiny! Also, a couple of community tables, which I'm not a fan of. Thankfully we got a two top table. 2) I have to serve myself water? At the front door? Where everyone is standing around waiting? 3) the food: expensive. Def seemed overpriced for what you were getting. Honestly, the pizza was super bland to me. And so was the dipping sauce we got to go along with the pizza. 4) service wasn't even that great. It took a while to get anyone's attention that we wanted the check to leave. Will I come back? Probably not.

Where to begin, we came when they opened just after 5 as we didn't want to have to wait for a table. We had our choice of several seating options and chose to sit at the bar overlooking the kitchen. We fetched our own water (a little odd but fine by me) and watched the staff carefully prepping and cooking menu items. Our server was friendly and attentive without being bothersome. The kitchen area and overall space is small so I think that is part of the equation in understanding how they run things. There isn't space for reservations or a full bar for mixed drinks and a great wine selection, something I would enjoy, but I understand it may just not be part of the vision. We chose the winter salad and the sweet and Smokey pie (obviously a seasonal or rotational pie) along with the roasted garlic ranch. Everything in my opinion was 15/10. I wouldn't change a THING. The salad was truly the best I've ever had. I could've eaten 3 of them. Each element was so thoughtfully prepared and at peak freshness. The satsumas sing in your mouth. I'm going to be thinking about that salad for a very long time. The beautiful presentation meant we dressed tossed and crunched up the Parmesan sourdough cracker into the salad. Every bite was just... Chef's kiss. Shortly after we finished the salad our pizza came out. The toppings are all very carefully sourced and selected and I thoroughly enjoyed them. Since the menu is seasonal and may change, I'll share the toppings: Marinara, provolone, Benton's bacon lardon, Spotted Trotter Southern Smash salami (contains peanuts), pineapple, toasted sesame seeds, pickled hot peppers, chives, fig habanero glaze I'm actually just speechless. I wouldn't have changed a thing. Such a clever and well assembled pie. I love bread (does anyone not? Serious question) and their crust is the very very best of its kind that I've had in Birmingham, and it's not close. It obviously differs, but the quality is on par with Christian Petroni's Fortina which I was lucky enough to eat regularly in NY and CT when I lived there. It's the lovely kind of crust that leaves you feeling light even after you have stuffed yourself. The dipping sauces!!! The star of the show maybe? I love that they feature several delicious homemade sauces for those that really want to enjoy that luscious fluffy crust. We chose the roasted garlic ranch and W O W! Tangy (cream cheese part of the base I would bet) with roasted garlic and punchy fresh dill. This stuff is magic. Don't expect hidden valley, this will make you look at ranch differently, even if you already were a ranch snob. A friend of mine who told me to come here, told me she still dreams about the ranch, and I can see why. I felt the price was truly appropriate for the quality of the food you are putting into your body. This was not a particularly expensive dinner for 2 for us and they do not skimp at all on the toppings. Every bite of my meal was a flavor explosion. I'll not hesitate in saying this place truly shines, and we will return again and again. I already have proposed to my husband a standing Friday dinner tradition here.

Disappointed about the new ownership. Seems like sizes shrank and while prices aren't up yet, if the greedy Big Spoon owners charge $6 for a single scoop of ice cream $40 pizzas are on the horizon. They also have zero training in Italian cuisine so I'm not hopeful. RIP Pizza Grace.

We brought the kids here for a Friday night dinner, and they loved it! The cheese pizza was a hit, and the staff was super friendly with our little ones. Family-friendly and fun!,

The pizza here is fantastic! Limited flavors, which I suppose it what makes it classier, but I would have loved some more creative flavors. The pizzas are probably just big enough to share with another person, especially if you get a salad or something else. However, at 4:30 on a Saturday they had already sold out of all appetizers and salads. So that was a bit disappointing. Though it was certainly worse for anyone who came after 5pm when they were sold out of everything. I understand that they were just nominated for a James beard award so maybe weren't expecting quite so many people, but it seems like extraordinarily poor planning to run out of everything before the weekend dinner rush. The atmosphere is fine, one of those industrial spaces that looks really cool, but is actually hard to hear anything. It was so loud that we couldn't hear some friends just two seats down. Not any favorite vibe, but I know others love it! Pizza delicious though expensive.

This place was also so busy so decided to try it. The salad was great as an appetizer and the serve came back to make sure we knew that the pizza had no cheese on it. Loved that she did that. Pizza was good! Would come back to try another kind of pizza
