About this business

A Detroit tradition, Buddy's Pizzeria has grown from a little-known bar and pizza joint to an institution. There are now Buddy's outlets in multiple suburbs, but the authentic experience is at the original, crowded, multi-roomed eatery. Buddy's was the first spot in Detroit to offer square pizzas, in 1946. The pizza is thick and the filling comes with plenty of cheese and sauce, and it is repeatedly voted the best in Detroit in local surveys. Salads, pastas, burgers, sandwiches and home-made soups are also on the menu. There... read more

Great place to eat,have been eating there for over 30 years,I also go to the Buddy's at 13 mile and Van Dyke. Their pizza is like none I've eaten before. I brought my daughter up on their pizza and now that's the only kind she and my two Grand-kids will eat. She moved up North and when I go to visit I have to buy two Supremes and take them up with me.

Excellent – I've been going to Buddy's in Detroit since I was a teenager. My late parents wouldn't go anywhere else for pizza! I still live in Detroit, and close enough to Buddy's to go as often as I'd like! I always recommend this place to my friends.

Buddy's is Best – This was the best pizza when I was a kid growing up in the Detroit area, it remained the best when I was a young man in college--when no trip to Tiger Stadium was complete without a visit to Buddy's either before or after the game--and it is still the best pizza. I never visit Detroit without visiting Buddy's.

Overrated!!! – For the price you pay, you'd think this was the best pizza in the world. I'm here to say IT'S NOT!! The service is slow, the pizza is cold, and the sauce is boreing to the taste buds. They have been getting by on reputation alone. Once these people start trying other pizza in town they will soon relize that they have been dup'ed by Buddy's.

Detroit Pizza is underrated – I have lived in both New York and Chicago and have heard rave reviews about the pizza from those cities. Personally, nothing compares to Buddy's (and Shield's) pizza in Detroit. I don't know what the problem is with Detroit - it just doesn't seem to know how to get the word out about its finer features. The pizza is so good that a woman in Knoxville, TN - when hearing that I had lived in Detroit, exclaimed (without prompting) "Ohhhh - my boyfriend is from there and I visited - BUDDY'S PIZZA!" (W... read more

Yum! – The pizza is good, but the Anti-Pasto Salad is the best! With the Homemade dressing on the side, you never have too much. A great touch to a fun and fairly inexpensive night out, with a playful atmosphere. Perfect for family dinners!

Pizza? I think not. – While visiting Michigan everyone raved about Buddy's Pizza-- so I just had to go. I waited to be seated as this place which was packed so I thought it had to be good. I loved to retro styled dining area & the servers were kind but the pizza was not good. It tasted very heavily laiden in grease & tasted exactly like a cheese-doodle! As weird as that might sound. It was not very fresh tasting & it was a disppointment. :O( I will not return.

Da Best ZA! – A large supreme, yum! Cold leftover pie with milk for breakfast double yum! Antipasto salad overflows the bowl. Seriously the best traditional deep dish pizza.

Buddy's for a Lifetime! – Ever since I can remember my parents have taken me to Buddy's Pizzeria for pizza and salad. The deep dish, can't be beat. Anyone who wants good pizza, needs to travel here.
