    I love Detroit style, especially from Jet’s pizza, so when I last went to Detroit I thought I’d try the original Detroit style from Buddy’s Pizza. It was pretty disappointing, so I guess, copycats do improve it sometimes.

      Jets is probably one of the best widespread chains out there. If you’re in the area though, Green Lantern in Royal Oak absolutely slaps and is hands-down the best pizza I’ve ever had in my life. Don’t mistake it for the one in Madison, since they only have a “tavern” style.

      My take was that buddy’s was a let down compared to the hype, but otherwise perfectly fine. They also charged for what the hype led me to expect.

      Jets on the other hand gives you just as traditional Detroit style, but the quality advertised, expected, delivered and paid for is entirely uniform.

      Buddy’s wants to be “nice” in a way that’s above what you can actually get out of a pizza place without being a “restaurant that can also make pizza”.
