I was recently vacationing on Lake Huron and a local asked me if I'd been to Amar Pizza and suggested we stop there on our way home. I was quite intrigued that I was being recommended a place to try that was over 2 hours away from where we were, but stopped we did, and damn I'm so glad we did! First, how on Earth does this place have an average rating of a 4? The low ratings must be from a long time ago because this place runs extremely well and they have mastered their unique pizza. This place is one to go to and one to tell all your friends about. We were planning on ordering 2 small deep dish pizzas- a Naga and a Tandoori, but we ended up ordering a large and they were willing to split the pizza in half- which was a cost savings and super nice of them, for the same amount of pizza. The cashier was super welcoming and friendly and walked us through the menu and I thought her customer service was top notch. We ordered our pizza and were quoted 20 minutes, and it was ready in a little less time than that. The pizza was made fresh and boiling hot from the oven. Both pizzas belong in their own category of food. They are pizza but they also taste like something else. The components were well mastered- the crust was crispy and fluffy, and tasted a bit like a light focaccia. The flavors were well balanced- not too greasy or spicy or hot- really just perfect. I love the way they chop red onions, it really allows you to get the full onion flavor which I love. The interior was modest but clean. There was bulletproof glass like other reviewers mentioned. I'm not from the area but the neighborhood seemed safe, just not a white area, and I would have eaten inside if I didn't have dogs waiting in the car. They have an extensive of typical and more unique beverages. I couldn't resist trying the Mango Pepsi, which was delicious. The prices were incredibly reasonable- I spent $40 that covered four meals. And the pizza was really good reheated too. They charge a 4% fee to pay with a credit card. I marked this as a place to definitely return next time Im in the area. Thanks Amar Pizza for a great experience!

Mediterranean Pizza Round

Loving Hamtramk lately, and this spot has been on the radar for years. I am a huge spice lover and was ready to rock! For this reason I also got the wife and son a Mediterranean pie. (Side note- the Mediterranean does have some spicy salt type of crust dust, we doctored it up for my toddler and he loved it!). The flavour on the ghost pepper pizza was top notch! Very well balanced, that is for the mere mortals. I would definitely ask for extra spice (if that's an option) if you really want to sweat while you eat. The Mediterranean pizza was also very good, I think they use the same chicken on all the pies- that's not a bad thing. Looking forward to exploring the menu more! I think spicy beef is next. While waiting for my order I was chatting with the guy at the counter, really nice dude. Apparently ghost, then naga (best seller), then tandoori in order of spice.

We were on a trip to Detroit. This little fusion pizza place is a great find! Large menu with flexible options. We ordered tandoori pizza and dried fish pizza. Both were delicious. I highly recommend this place!!

My bf has been raving about the pizza from Amar & their ghost pepper sauce pretty much since the day I met him. I finally got to try it! $25 for a large 1/2 naga-1/2 spice pizza seemed a bit much. And I wonder what a small pizza from here looks like, because the large isn't that big. But I love the concept-Detroit-style pizza+Bangladeshi flavors. The naga pizza is delicious. I wish I had just done that one. The sauce is sooo good. The spice pizza, despite it's name, was bland. However, was really good heated up the next day. The flavor and spice was so good. There are only 2 tables inside, so it's best to order takeout.

Dry Fish Pizza

I used to love Amar Pizza when it first opened. Now, the pizza prices here have drastically increased and the food quality has drastically decreased. Overall, I think the pizzas here suck. My biggest disappointment is the Naga Pizza, which used to be my favorite. For $15, I expected it to taste even better now, but it did not. In fact, there are even fewer toppings on the pizza. The $18 Dry Fish Pizza was burnt. That's all I gotta say.

Bangladeshi pizza. They have been around for 10 years, 7 in hamtramck and 3 years in this location. What an interesting concept that's intrigued me to try it out once, finally made it here. Split pizzas are available on square or rounds as the minimum medium size pizzas. I got them to go for dinner later, hubby will be ecstatic. Ordered the ghost pizza with extra ghost sauce and Hawaii pizza on one pie. The Mediterranean and the tandoori with garlic added on the other pizza. The pizzas take about 25 minutes to make. There's two rough and tumble makeshift dining seats. Nice plexiglass windows to keep the staff safe. The crusts were nice and chewy, the pizza bottom was a bit thick, I tend to prefer my pizza to have thin crusts and bottoms too, but overall it was not bad. It would also have been nice to have some GF pizza options too. Only indulge in the glutinous pizzas a couple of times a year. The pizzas took about 20 minutes to come out for me to pick them up. I sat and waited by the tables until they were completed, thank goodness for iPhones and mindless games and scrolling through whatever. The Ghost chicken pizza had a nice kick to it, glad I got the extra ghost sauce on it. The Mediterranean chicken doesn't taste half bad either, a bit scant on the chicken pieces. The tandoori chicken has a nice sweet and tangy spice to it. The options here are definitely interesting. I would probably get the ghost chicken above all the other ones I ordered today, that had the best taste and flavors out of all 4. The ham on the Hawaiian looked like deli sliced meat to me, looked a bit off once it was cooked and paper thin too, but there's at least a lot of ham. The only pie light on the chicken bits or bites was the Mediterranean for me, maybe a handful at most. Each pie was $16, about the same as many gourmet pizza spots in the vicinity. Not a bad pizza spot overall. He said it's the one of the better pizzas he's had in a while. My hubby said he liked the Mediterranean and the ghost pepper, he liked the pizza toppings, but didn't love the crust either.

Half naga, half tandoori

It's hard to get pizza wrong, but it's even harder to innovate the classic food group. At Amar, the Bangladeshi flavors allow you to experience new combinations of pizza. We had a split pizza Naga and Tandoori. Both had beautiful and colorful presentations. The Naga was good with a hint of spice and the Tandoori chicken was tender and flavorful. I honestly enjoyed eating theme concurrently as they hit separate taste buds. Amar is a low-key place with a couple of tables and unassuming storefront. There are a variety of options for pizza, biriyani, and other foods, so surely you can find something savory to enjoy!

Got a large seafood pizza for $23. It was tiny & too salty. Waste of $. Isn't a large prize supposed to be at least 10 large slices? We got 8 tiny slices. Absurd.

Half bbq chicken. Half Tandoori Pizza Square Deep Dish

I would srsly boof Amar Pizza. Dangerously delicious. I ordered the pizza with a side of Ghost pepper sauce and went smash city.

This isn't just a regular pizza spot. There are unique pizzas you must try. One of my favorite is the naga pizza!

The pizza was a little dry and very spicy, as a recommendation I think I would ask for extra sauce on the pizza next time

Buddy's pizza on Conant…read more Stopped in once again on my travels to Detroit. I just can't get enough of this place. They're running a $20 8 square special until the end of October of just cheese, so that's what I ordered. I went and picked up the pie at their contact location and as always it was hot and fresh. I drove back to the house and ate half of it while watching the MNF game. Delicious cheese, tomato sauce bursting with flavor and that always crispy delicious crust. Buddy's pizza for the win.

This was my first time having Detroit-style pizza in Detroit, and Buddy's absolutely lived up to the hype. Without question, it's the best Detroit-style pizza I've ever had. Every bite was like an explosion of cheesy, crispy, comforting goodness. The crust was perfectly soft and airy on the inside with those incredible caramelized cheese edges that gave every bite an amazing crunch. Just a heads-up, this isn't fast food. Since it's a thick pan pizza made fresh, expect to wait a little longer, but it's 100% worth every minute. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the history of the restaurant, which made the experience even better. I also had my first Michigan Mule, and it did not disappoint! From the outside, it wasn't immediately obvious where to enter, but once inside, I was blown away. The walls are packed with decades of memorabilia, articles, awards, murals, and the story of how Detroit-style pizza was born. It felt like eating in a piece of pizza history, not just another restaurant. As someone who has eaten Detroit-style pizza back home, I can already tell every future slice will be measured against Buddy's, and that's a tough standard to beat. If you want authentic Detroit-style pizza from the place that started it all, this is a must-visit. Thank you, Buddy's, for an unforgettable meal. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Detroit!

I traveled all over the east coast eating vegan food prior to stopping in Detroit.......it was the BEST meal of the whole trip, hands down. Thank you Grandma Bob's! cannot wait to eat here again.
