Rockville has no shortage of pizza. What it didn’t have — until recently — was true Detroit-style pizza: square, deep, and crispy-edged, baked in seasoned black steel. If that’s what you’re hunting for in Montgomery County, here’s where to find it.
Where to get it
HEMI Pizza makes authentic Detroit-style pizza right in Rockville, inside Chef Tony’s Fresh Seafood at 12307 Wilkins Avenue, Rockville, MD 20852 — with free parking right out front. It’s an easy run from North Bethesda, Bethesda, Potomac, and Gaithersburg.
Hours
- Tuesday–Saturday: 4pm – 9pm
- Sunday: 11am – 8pm
- Monday: Closed
What makes it the best in the area
“Best” is a big claim, so here’s the case for it:
- Real black steel pans. Every pie is baked the Detroit way for genuine crispy frico corners — not a round crust cut into squares.
- Chef-driven toppings. HEMI is run by seafood chefs, so you get things like six-hour braised short rib, Maryland lump crab, and roasted-chicken pesto — not the same five toppings as everyone else.
- Premium ingredients. Grande and Wisconsin brick cheese, Ezzo cupping pepperoni, fresh herbs, and a house three-tomato sauce. See what goes on every pie →
Adult-level pizza — engineered by chefs, baked in black steel, five minutes from North Bethesda.
