Detroit Legend named top-rated pizzeria in Michigan

With a special place in cities across America, pizzerias are more than just places to grab a quick bite to eat. They are beloved community gathering places where friends gather, families celebrate, and countless memories are made over a shared slice of pizza. With their unique blend of tradition and innovation, pizzerias have become iconic landmarks, cherished by locals and visitors alike, from city centers to suburban streets.

Vine Pair got to the bottom of the fact that pizza is a serious subject in America. People get pretty heated when debating where they prefer to eat a pizza. “With so much of it consumed each year – and so many regions having their own style – it’s not uncommon to see fans arguing about which local establishment is better,” they said.

Given this enthusiasm and commitment, Vine Pair decided to create a list of the top-rated pizzerias in each state, focusing on pizzerias in major cities, relying on consumers, and using Yelp for the statistics.

In Michigan, Vine Pair has focused on Detroit because, after all, there is a type of pizza named after the Motor City. With that in mind, it’s probably no surprise that the highest-rated pizzeria is none other than the legendary Buddy’s Pizza.

The historic Detroit chain is responsible for developing the Motor City’s eponymous pizza style and began its career on Detroit’s east side in 1946. That’s when Gus Guerra and the team made their first square pizza and the Detroit Style was born. Today, there are 16 restaurants and 6 take-out shops to satisfy pizza lovers across Michigan.
