old style sicilian pizza best in town. detroit's oldest area small chain of super square pizza is a must try on your search for a favorite pizza,,,love the square type pizza with the greasy crunchy side along with the thick cheese topped pizza. yes the have a great take out area too and my favorite is the large antipasto salad with the great house dressing. also plating up many other italian favorite meals and sandwich;s. super special for kids birthday parties to. a very good selection of craft beers on tap always keeps me coming back for more.

buddy's best location. i've been to all thebuddy'sand this is my very favorite,,the pizza and salads are so very good each time and the outside eating area right on michigan ave is a super plus.

great in every way. this was my thirdbuddy'sexperience (each at a different location). this was by far the best time.

it was a monday night around 8pm. we ordered a large square detroiter and a pitcher of beer while we watched monday night football. the waitress didn't pay any attention to us but it looked like she was trying to pick up two dudes at the bar.

pizza was perfect. outside crust was crispy but not burnt. the thing that made this great was that the center was baked well also. yeah the crust is really greasy but it's crispy and not too salty. the cheese on top was just browned and all the toppings were good. until i went to pizza house in ann arbor this was my vote for best pizza in detroit.

if you like the classic detroit square deep dish with a crispy crust this is a "must try" type of place.

nice fix for this sicilian-american girl.... i was visiting detroit, and just had to try this place, since they were highly rated by food network. the pizza was did not disappoint. the ingredients were of a very high quality, and the quantities of cheese, sauce and crust were nicely balanced. i loved this pizza and if i ever happen to be in detroit again, would go back tobuddy'sin a second!

hybrid pizza that works. what do you get when you cross chicago style deep dish pizza with sicilian style pizza?buddy'spizza. did take out for this but i had a chance to walk inside. friendly people but the pizza was alright. the atmosphere looked nice with neon lights and an uno's type atmosphere. the pizza was pretty standard with a decent selection of toppings. worth a visit.

while i findbuddy'spizza very good, the service was very poor. our server was overwhelmed and did not receive help from the other servers that were far less busy.

buddy's has some of the best square pizza i've tasted. they have great family deals too.buddy'sbread is a must order.
