    Called ahead and placed a pickup order for the Greektown and Detroit's 8 Square pizzas. The order was ready right on time when we arrived, which made pickup quick and easy. This location is takeout-only, with no dine-in space. The pizzas were fresh and full of flavor, though I felt they would have been even better if eaten immediately while piping hot. I still remember my first Buddy's experience at another branch, the pizza was straight-out-of-the-oven hot, and that made a big difference. I had previously ordered a version with dill leaves, which was absolutely worth it and something I missed this time. That said, the flavors were still bold and satisfying, every bite packed with seasoning and richness. Buddy's is definitely more expensive than regular pizza, but the portion size and quality make it worth it. It's the kind of pizza that fills your mouth with flavor and keeps all your senses engaged. Parking is shared with nearby stores, and the location is convenient right off busy Ford Road, next to Lucas and a new halal spot. Overall, a solid Buddy's experience with great flavor and reliable pickup, just missing that fresh-from-the-oven heat that takes it to the next level.

    Placed an order for delivery and it was delivered and still warm! They didn't forget anything and we got buy one get one free pizza! We did request the pepperoni to be put on top of the cheese, which they missed, but normally they do that when we call. They must have missed the request since we ordered online. Always get 2 salad dressings, since it's soo good!

    My recent order from Buddy's was made incorrectly. The pizza came with the marinara sauce on top instead of layered inside the pizza where it normally belongs. It completely changed the texture and flavor in a bad way.

    Pros- food is delicious, pizza, pasta, salads...their ranch is our fav and the bread basket, yum!!…read moreOur waiter Zack was great, accommodating, kind, and on top of things. Parking is easy and the restaurant appears clean. One negative comment- so we made a reservation for 15, and we had one extra child, bringing us to 16. The host (older lady with shoulder length reddish brown hair), made it exceptionally clear she was annoyed and continued to quote their policy of "banquet menu" once our party got to 16. I understand, it was an accident, and tbh didn't require us to be moved, just an extra chair. It put a sour taste in my mouth, as I was guest of honor visiting from out of town; you made us feel unwelcome the moment we walked in. As a host, you shouldn't be the one representing the restaurant. If you're upset, go home. Mind you, this is a Tuesday evening at dinner time (the restaurant wasn't busy and there was NO wait). Kudos to the wait staff and chefs, all our food came out at once, no send backs- I know for large parties it can get crazy, you all did amazing. I hope management can use this as a teaching opportunity to the host, as I'll be sure NOT to return to this location the next time I'm in town due to this experience at your establishment.

    Let me begin with the fact I am a big fan of the Dearborn Heights location. Never a bad meal in…read moreover thirty years of patronage. The Canton location looks beautiful inside and out. I decided to give it a try. I regret that. They were well-staffed and it was an hour and a half before closing, That seemed enough time to not endure the rush to close activities so prevalent in restaurants, Nope. By 8:15PM, I felt patrons were being conveyed we're kinda in the way, not the actual purpose of their work as well as the lion's share of their paycheck. I was stunned at how much my prefered dish, Chicken Antonio--which was never cheap, has increased in price over the years but worse was the execution. The salad was good and the bread as always, excellent. The main course? Not so much. I know I should have sent it back, but I didn't. I really hate doing that for fear of angering the guy cooking my food. I've seen Waiting... Soon as I took a bite, I knew something was off. It seemed oil-soaked. Now I know the breaded chicken filet is sautéed but this was greasy. It was greasy to the point by the time I ate less than a third my stomach was queasy. My teenaged server asked if my meal was okay. I told him "not really" which seemed to stun him and leave him without a response. He came back a few minutes later to ask if he could do anything. What could he do? Well, maybe call a manager or send out the cook--but I wasn't going to ask. He seemed new and nervous so I wasn't about to be a Karen. Maybe these servers should be instructed to send a manager when they're told something is disappointing? Come to think of it; I often have experiences a manager stopping by to ask if my meal was satisfactory. In my previous Antonio's experiences, that was kinda common--and part of the charm. I really felt they cared. I ended up--for the first time ever, taking home 75% of my meal hoping reheating in my oven will help. We'll see tomorrow when my stomach is up to it. The closing routine after 8:30 was certainly distracting and not at all what one would expect from a fine restaurant charging a premium such as here. The smell of Windex used to clean the doors was just overwhelming and I felt like we remaining patrons were getting the bum's rush. In closing, I was also disappointed they don't offer a Veteran's discount which is more and more a standard thing today. Even Cracker Barrel has started. I hope they change that policy. I'm sure I'll continue to go to the Dearborn Heights location, but this experience gives me pause at the Canton location.

    I just want to give out a compliment!! This restaurant is the best Italian restaurant in Canton…read more They never disappoint and they are always very friendly to everyone who comes. Their meat sauce is sooooooo good! Today I tried the meat tortalenni however you spell it. lol it was soooo good. They give you a generous amount of food always. My husband got the veal paramesian which was out of this world! This place is always busy and it's because their food is excellent. Today we had Johnna as our waitress and I tipped her $20 because she so sweet and so very kind. I love that girl like my own daughter and watched her grow up into such a lovely and beautiful young lady. To the owners of this restaurant I always wish you well! Please please, please never close! You're the only Italian place I love in Canton. If anything knock out another wall next door and make the place bigger you always seem to do such great business there and always busy we are there. All of the other Italian restaurants in Canton don't even come close to your food! Thank you for such excellent food! We will always eat here! If any of you get a break you should try Roma's in Southgate, Michigan their food is pretty close to yours.

    Overdue for an update! Recently I've enjoyed a few different experiences here and all of them have…read morebeen solid. The first was delivery and it arrived perfectly prepared and exactly as ordered. I went with the seafood pasta and my family split an order or arancini. Everything was excellent. A few weeks later I came back through for dinner with some friends and we landed on the heated patio. It was cozy and comfortable. We split the bruschetta with prosciutto, goat cheese, and fig spread. Very good! For my entree I went with the asiago baci, little purses of an asiago and ricotta stuffed pasta tossed in a garlic cream sauce with tomatoes and asparagus. So so good! And a nice sized portion as well. For dessert we split a slice of the lemon torte. Light and delicious. The perfect end to the meal. I was there catching up with friends and we definitely moved a little slower ordering (too busy talking!) and our server was really kind and patient with us. A great experience all around.

    I've been back to Nico and Vali's twice within the last month, and was pleased with both visits…read more One our first trip, my husband and I tried the Spaghetti Bolognese and the Short Rib Special. The meatballs in the spaghetti dish were delicious. Flavorful and not dried out. The sauce tasted like it had been cooked with love. I also liked the short rib. The sauce had been elevated with some wine, and the meat was tender and rich. The accompanying potatoes were so creamy. I would order both dishes again. We each got a dessert. My husband got the tiramisu and I got the chocolate cake. I guess the tiramisu was just ok. I loved the chocolate cake. On our second visit, we tried the Rigatoni Caprino and the Chicken Marsala Florentine. Of the two, we liked the rigatoni better. It had that super red sauce on it. The sausage was on point, and the goat cheese complimented the rest of the dish so well. The marsala was good, though my husband I agreed we had both had better. The sauce just lacked something. My husband wasn't that impressed with the Crème Brûlée cheesecake, and wouldn't order it again.
