The "Find a Hole In The Wall" guy here with my latest discovery: Benito's Pizza. Driving from last customer to the next you get hungry. Fresh, hot and made to order, with ingredients that tasted like they just cut them fresh for me. Lobby, dining area and kitchen are clean, well maintained and airy. Even the restroom was clean. That attention to detail is reflected in the product they hand you. The staff is attentive and professional, even with a lobby full of 'starving' teenagers. That's a plus. {And, they get a lot quieter when their mouths are full! :-) } Overall I recommend this place if you're jonesing for a pizza and don't want the same old lukewarm crackers with ketchup from the chains. read more

Just tried this place today for the first time. It exceeded my expectations, which is rare these days. No skimping on the ingredients, cooked to perfection and a quite delicious deep dish (Detroit Style). I ordered early before the dinner rush and it was 20 mins from order to first bite. Wish I had taken pics - it was a beautiful pie. read more

Fantastic product. It's great to be able to go in and walk out with a couple of hot slices for 4 dollars. Thick, hearty, Detroit Style Pizza with plenty of cheese AND sauce. Most places scrimp on sauce. Generous with the pepperoni as well. Getting full on just 4 bucks is nearly impossible. The Owner was friendly as well. I'll be back. read more

pizza ok. really defeats the purpose of the status online if they tell you it's ready online and when you get there they say 10 more minutes. Not sure if someone is gaming a tracker on timing it takes for orders/being done on time..... read more

Was told 30 minutes my pizza would be done and I've been waiting in the pizza shop for longer than 30 minutes. Worst part they told me it was coming out of the oven right when I got there. Most unorganized pizza shop I've ever seen and not honest about wait times at all. Use to love this place 5 years ago but they are slacking now. Won't be returning. Got my pizza and it was doughy on top of it. I saw them take it out of the oven early because they were so behind. read more

Best pizza in South Lyon! Super friendly staff and great service. Restaurant is very clean. With all the options in South Lyon, we are glad Benito's is one of them. read more

The price was very expensive for a large meat lovers pizza with onion. The service was welcoming! Food was very good!

Benito's of South Lyon is so supportive of the community! They have been a generous Summer Reading Sponsor for the local libraries for years! We love them! read more

Management must have changed recently. Never had worse service here. The order received was completely incorrect. The toppings were wrong. The size of the pizza was wrong and the fact that they were thin crust versus thick crust everything was wrong. When we complained about the wrong order received, they said oh we could wait there in the pizzeria for them to make another one for 20 min. and they did not offer refund as option. Since we were missing the football game while we were waiting there for them to get their act together, we decided to leave. read more

First time ordering from this location. The person on the phone was friendly when taking the order. Even during this Quarantine period - it felt comfortable picking up the pizza. The young lady at the counter was very pleasant. The large pepperoni pizza was actually very good. Will definitely order from here again. read more

Benito's Pizza - Large pepperoni pizza - very good! - Pizza Near Me - South Lyon, Michigan

I don't know what happened to benitos, but this is the last time we are ordering from them. They used to be our favorite pizza and salad. But the last time we ordered from them, about a month ago, our pizza was smushed against the box, and our salad had so much water in it, it was dripping. I called them and they gave us a refund. Ok, not too big a problem, we had never really had an issue before. So today we decided to order from them again, what we received was ridiculous, we ordered a thin crust pepperoni (we didn't receive a thin crust) we ordered benito bread, which should have cheese on it, (we got plain burnt breadsticks) and we ordered a pepperoni and bacon with plain crust, we got burnt pizza with flavored crust. Then, when I looked at the receipt, she had taken the order wrong... There are too many things wrong for $50. We will not waste our money here again. Now I have to go make something for my kids to eat. read more

See all

7:30 on mothers day, fully explicit rap music playing very loud with lots of swearing while actual children are in the lobby waiting on thier pizza. You should be ashamed of yourselves, Benitos. Unbelievable. read more

New ownership great people but pizza wasn't very good. I'm back to being a Jets pizza fan.

Hadn't eaten Benito's in some time, so I called and asked for the personal pizza with five toppings for $5. My family can never agree on toppings, so this was always the best option for us, but I was informed that three personal pizzas with five topping came to $25; they no longer offer the Five for $5 deal. I get that businesses rehabs the right to change their menus at any time, but this is a full $10 more than we would have paid for these pizzas one month ago, which seems to me to be a fairly steep price hike. Time to try some of the other pizza places in town, I guess. read more

Female employees are extremely rude and struggle to be professional. I was in there for less than 5 minutes before the girls were in the back gossiping about the customers?? I've never experienced this in a restaurant before. read more

Good pizza, my son lives the wings and you gotta love a sesame seed crust! They have specials even if you order online. Big fan!

Customer Service was Excellent! First time trying Benitos. I'm always concerned with wasting money. That was not the case here. I ordered the two slices and a pop for $5! Great Value. Pizza was fresh and Great for something different. Savory sauce Great crunch, and lastly the homemade ranch was Awesome! I usually do not like homemade restaurant ranches that are watered down or just flat out a miss. Highly recommend read more

Great place all around! My husband and I tried this for the first time and the service was great, the pizza was also really good and it was done early! We ordered pickup and it was done a good 5-10 minutes early and the store was very clean! We had to have a special no cheese pizza for a dairy allergy and normally places we go to will mess up the first couple times but they got it right on the first go! Definitely will be back and will be our new regular spot :) read more

Decent pizza. The store needs a good cleaning. Delivery takes too long. Pick it up or you'll be waiting an hour and reheating your pizza.

Ordered on Halloween. In fact, ordered ahead of time. Quoted 5:15. At 5:35 called to get a status, at that point told it was not going to happen and hung up on by the "manager ". Not sure if that is the standard there, needless to say I won't stick around to find out. I will be avoiding the location. read more

Delivery is fast and always fresh. Not sure why such a low rating because we never have an issue.

Meh. I was hoping for wow, I was disappointed. Interestingly, I got a call from them... you are 4.7 miles from our store, we only deliver 4 miles, so it will be an extra 35 minutes. LOL complete BS. Won't order again. read more

I love this place...I am a contractor....Me and my guys know pizza....as do most construction workers, and the folks at the South Lyon Benito's are the best, always call me by name, and the pizza is always great, I live on the other side of town 8 mile Pontiac trail, out side there delivery range, I have no problem going out of my way for good people and great food....and the folks at Benito's always do it up right every time. Thanks for the great service and Awesome food.... read more

As promised, their quality is consistent and, for the price, this is now once again our go-to chain pizza place. Keep it up, new management! read more

I go here a lot for a couple slices during lunch. Greg, the owner, has never been more kind and efficient. He works right there next to the employees. Their pizza is always hot and cooked perfectly. Very impressed with the cleanliness of the inside and will continue to recommend this Benitos to everyone I know! read more

About a month and a half ago, I left a negative review. The owner did respond and apologize. I pulled my previous review. We decided to go back tonight. Pizza was great, service was fine. read more

I have been going to Benito's in South Lyon for years. Always a good pizza. I just went for the first time under the new management (Oct '17) and everything was awesome! I suggest a round pizza, ask for well done. Great people in the store, go get pizza! read more

Today I am so excited to write this review. I am 71 years old and this evening I had the best experience at Benito's In South Lyon. I walked in and was greeted by a beautiful young respectful young man that any parent would be proud to have. The manager was awesome and went out of his way to be pleasant and I also had the opportunity to meet the uncle. I definitely have found my new favorite go to Pizzeria in South Lyon. I have four grown up children of my own and six grandchildren and i have frequented a lot of pizzerias in my time and this was my best experience ever. The pizza and wings were excellent, better than I have ever ordered from a pizzeria. The ingredients tasted like they just cut them fresh especially for my meal. It was so nice and clean. There was an immediate very warm homely feeling when I walked in. I cannot say enough. Please do yourself a favor and order your next dinner from Benito's i promise you that you will not be sorry. Thank you so much for this awesome wonderful experience, read more

They were on time. But they usually mess up my order. This time my pizza was floppy and greasy and my bread was so undercooked it was unedible. read more

HORRIBALE FOOD AND SERVICE.... DON'T EAT HERE... We just moved to South Lyon and have been looking for a good pizza shop and this is not it by far. We ordered last night and the experience was by far the worst I have ever had in a restaurant. Having managed and worked in the pizza industry all though college I feel that there was a lot to be desired here. First things first: Customer service or should I say lack of it. There girl taking the order had no clue what was what was going on and was pretty snotty she was basically was no help. Management: Rude after telling her today that our entire family got sick from there pizza I was told that no one else has complained and I was the first person to say anything basicly calling me a lier. She said there was nothing could do about it. After literly arguing with her she offered to take 10% our next purchase. After I got done laughing I told her we would never eat here again and that I was going to write a bad help review she said ok and hung up on me. Bottom line HORRIBALE FOOD AND SERVICE.... DON'T EAT HERE... read more

Way too expensive for less than what you can get other places. Crust is bland. Every teenage girl that answers the phone there is snotty. It can't be the same one. We've gone to Benito's off and on for years since they opened and they were better when they started. They have gone downhill. Pizza is undercooked. We now go to Boomers in New Hudson consistently and they have 2 large 5 item pizzas for under 25 bucks. The quality is consistent at Boomers too. And they are really nice every time and quick. I'm surprised Benito's is still in business. I think it's because there's not really any good pizza in South Lyon just chain stores. read more

I would never go back to this pizza place. The pizza was very bland and cold. And something is off with the taste of the sauce. A $5 pizza from little Cesar's tastes a million times better. It was definitely way to expensive for the quality. read more

Not as good as the store in Novi. Run by a bunch of kids. Don't like the service or the product. Love the store in Novi.

Great pizza. Pretty greasy. But definitely great for a guilty pleasure kind of night.

I've ordered pizza from here several times and they have yet to get the amount of cheese. right on any of them. I ask for hardly any cheese and what do I get? Too much cheese. Well that's it. no more ordering from them. I guess I'll have a peanut butter sandwich and fritos. read more

This has been a new pizza place lately. Hot and fresh each time. Great customer service on the phone and in person. Even our dog can't resist sneaking into the pizza box and helping himself...he only risks getting in trouble for Benitos pizza. read more

First of all, let me say that i have signed up for Yelp SPECIFICALLY because i feel strongly enough to write this review. Last Saturday night, we ordered 2 small pizzas and a plate of wings. The total cost was $40 so the thought, based on our knowledge of small pizzas, there would be plenty of food for our small group. This "small pizza" would more be categorized as a "personal" sized pizza. I can't believe how little food we got for $40. So in my opinion the value in this pizza is just not there. To make matters worse, they forgot the sauces for our wings making the wings truly disappointing. We called and talked to the manager to express our disappointment in the value and suggested they be more clear about the sizes of the pizza, and to let them know they forgot our sauces. The manager was definitely not a believer in the concept that the customer is always right. He was quite abrupt and seemed annoyed, verging on rude, with our disappointment and pointing out their mistake. His "customer service" gesture was simply to not charge us for the sauce they forgot (woohoo) and promised to send the delivery guy back out "right away" with our sauce. He came an hour and a half later, well after our bland wings were gone. We were truly disappointed in the lack of customer service and the manager, unwilling to do anything to keep a happy customer. read more

I used to frequent this place and I loved their pizza. However, approximately 3 or 4 months back they changed their pizza sauce for the worse. I believe it was a decision by new management- not sure. Nevertheless, South Lyon has an abundance of pizza establishments to choose from. read more

I have enjoyed Benito's for many years, but that relationship ended today. Today was the second time that my order was delivered late again, 1 1/2 hrs. Additionally, my order was incorrect again. We were lied to by the person whom answers the phone, when we called to find out where our order was. The person basically put all responsibility on the driver. When the driver arrived, I asked what took so long and she told me that they were extremely busy and that she was the ONLY driver. When I told her that the phone person blamed her, she became upset. The management at Benito's should already recognize their delivery problem, as I have experienced it prior, and correct it but it appears that they would rather offer free food and untrue excuses in the hope of retaining a client. Businesses, like this Benito's, obviously need to suffer financial losses before they will begin to become professional. If Benito's reads this; You did the exact same thing to me last time i ordered. I do not want your free food offers. I want a great product and great service. I am not sure you know this but there are plenty of other pizza stores that will enjoy my money. read more
