Pizza Man

Pizza Man on North Downer Avenue in Milwaukee is a beloved neighborhood institution that has been crafting classic Milwaukee-style thin-crust pizza since 1970. Housed in a characterful building on the East Side, the restaurant features a glass-enclosed rooftop dining space with a retractable roof, allowing guests to enjoy an open-air atmosphere when the weather cooperates. The menu spans signature hand-tossed pies in thin, pan, or gluten-free crusts loaded with inventive toppings, alongside seasonal Italian pasta dishes and a remarkable wine list recognized annually by Wine Spectator since 1989. Craft beers on tap and bottle, refreshing cocktails, and a warm, welcoming ambiance make Pizza Man a perennial favorite for both locals and visitors seeking elevated casual dining above the rooftops of Milwaukee's East Side.
