This pizza is probably the best I ever had. I love the deep dish here and the service is always good.
I have been eating here for years and finally decided to try some other menu items. To my disappointment, it was comparable to eating at a Big Boys. The spaghetti my friend ordered tasted as if if was from a can and the french onion soup I ate was too salty with croutons in it :(
It is rumored that the secret pizza dough recipe used here and at Louies, originally stemmed from the original Buddys recipe in Detroit. If that's true, then it would make sense that people that are loyal to these pizza joints share similar opinions about these places. Â
I'm sticking to the pizza from now on.
Went again for dinner with a group of 11. No wait on a Monday at around dinner time. I got the lake perch, which comes with two sides, because I don't care for the pizza here.. I chose the macaroni and cheese and the vegetable (which turned out to be green beans). The lake perch was about $15 and came with six or seven decent-sized pieces of fish. The fish seemed to definitely be fresh, and was pan fried with minimal grease -- it tasted really good. The tartar sauce seemed to be out of a bottle, but I'm not picky about that. The macaroni and cheese was a fair size, but it was about I expected it to be... eh. The green beans were green beans... simply steamed and served in a little dish.
The service was pretty good, and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Still not a place I'd likely choose to go to, but I was surprised by the lake perch, and everybody else seemed pretty happy with their meal.
It's probably worth letting you know that the toppings here are an absolute rip-off ... on the pizza that the others chose, it was pepperoni, onion, and green pepper. Each topping is $1.75 or something like that on a large pizza (After the first one, I think), which is bad enough, and there are just paper-thin slices of the vegetables... what a rip. There was some left over, and when we got home and opened the box, the bottom of the pizza was slimy with orange grease. Mmm... appetizing!
