Let me start out with we had excellent service from Bella. The kitchen made an error and she took that 4 square pizza off the bill and had them remake the order correctly. Since the topping error was acceptable to my sister, Bella said I'll box it up and let her take it home instead of waiting it by throwing it out. When in Detroit you must go to buddy's for the home of the Detroit style pizza. Richelle, my sister, and I got 4 square pizza. Detroiter, BBQ Conant, and Margarita all were fantastic, in original crust. We ordered the wings and veggie sampler, really really good. Top notch wings, they could change the name to Buddy's pizza n wings for their 80th birthday. The breaded and fried veggies are among the best I have ever had, love the extra crunchy crumbles in the basket. Ranch, bbq, and siracha sauce was trying and enjoyed. The buddy brew is a great beer choice too. Family friendly location with big tables for groups. Sorry my picture are not great, we started eating before I could take pictures. read more

Wanting to try Detroit-style pizza while visiting Detroit, we came across Buddy's Pizza since it was close to where we were staying. The kids were in the mood for something different, so we decided to do carryout. When we walked in to order, the inside immediately caught my eye. There's a large bar area, cool signage, and a laid-back vibe. It wasn't overly busy, and we were directed by the host stand where carryout orders are placed. After checking out the menu, we went with the "Detroiter." The wait was about 20 minutes, which wasn't bad, but for a 4-square pizza at around $18, it did feel a bit pricey. The pizza itself was just okay for me. I was honestly expecting more, especially since Detroit-style pizza is so hyped. It wasn't bad, just didn't quite live up to my expectations. I did use the restroom while waiting, and it was clean and nicely designed. I loved the music-themed decor, vinyl records on display, fun wallpaper, and music playing in the background that gave the whole place a lively, upbeat feel. The spot has a cool vibe and laid back ambiance, but the pizza didn't wow me. read more

How cool never heard of " Detroit" style pizza. Read about the history of Buddy's ... it has all the freshness and flavor of Chicago style deep dish pizza but the dough is airy and light. Just the right amount of toppings ! Fresh tomato sauce. Love how the top layer of pepperoni are lightly crisped up. Also the outer edges of crust are also crispy and delicious. Definitely will order next time I'm in the area! read more

Beware! They will not honor their own coupons! Our family has been going to Buddy's for nearly 50 years and to this Troy location since they opened. We were given a Mother's Day coupon when we took my wife out for Mother's day, and when I tied to redeem it, this Troy location's manager did not honor their own coupon even though the coupon was still valid. The Warren Buddy's did honor it, and so now they have our business for the future and Troy Buddy's has lost our business! read more

Dined in here today and unfortunately it was a 3-star experience, although the pizza is always 5/5 from me. We were meeting some friends. It was very hot out today, like 90 degrees, and when we walked into the restaurant it felt like they didn't have the AC on at all - I'm not sure if they were having issues or what. I used the bathroom a few times during our visit and the bathroom area was even hotter than the main restaurant, too. My husband and I split an 8-square Conant pizza, aka their BBQ chicken one. It was good but we were a bit disappointed they didn't have the Slows BBQ chicken pizza they've had before in the summers. Not sure if they'll be doing that this summer or not. I had a $10 off $50 coupon and when we got our bills (split - ours plus our friends paid for their own food), only 10% had been taken off. Our friends said they got about $5 off theirs, and we had $2.80 or so off ours, so we decided not to bring the issue up, but it was disappointing. I no longer live in the Troy area so we'll probably continue doing takeout from Farmington Hills, after this experience. But please fix the AC (I realize it didn't help that I'm 8 months pregnant currently, too, but it was very, very hot inside today). read more

Buddy's Pizza Troy - Conant pizza (8 square) aka BBQ chicken pizza, very good - Pizza Near Me - Troy, Michigan

Been going to Buddy's for years. Original Detroit pizza. Recently, there has been a drop off. Had a Square with pepperoni and onions. Very few pepperonis and onions. Not much cheese. No char. Antipasto salad was missing the Italian dressing. Sloppy and indifferent preparation. Got to step it up. read more

I had always ordered in from this place but this time we were able to dine in. For what my bf will put it as is buddy's pizza is the best in Detroit with all the pizza chains around. I only wish they had more variety of desserts and also the bar options too. Service was great as well when we dined in, and it wasn't too noisy which is perfect for me. In case they decide to host a trivia night one of the days in the week (my wishlist) we will make this as our weekly regular.. read more

The Pizza was very good, made to order. The Happy Hour pricing at the bar was an added bonus. The bartender and wait staff keep us happy. The place is casual but clean and functional. It's a place for everyone! read more

5 stars for the pizza - 1st time at this location. The anti pasta salad however was lacking. Had to search for any cheese,or meat in it. Mostly just lettuce- life goes on. read more

As a fellow Detroiter, I must say I never had buddys until now! It was delicious! The atmosphere was nice and clean, not many people in the restaurant as it was an early lunch for us. We ordered the breaded vegetables as an appetizer l-so good, with mushrooms, zucchini and cauliflower and ranch for dipping sauce! Food came out pipping hot. For the pizza, we got a 4 slice with half veggie on my 2 slices and meat on my husband's; OMG it was so tasty-wow I'm so glad I finally popped my buddy's pizza cherry! My husband always raved about how good it was and yes it was worth talking about and driving to! Definitely coming back to get my fix whenever I come home! read more

Ordered a pizza online. Pizza was hot and ready right when I got there. Friendly service. This was my first time trying Detroit-style pizza and was not disappointed! Perfect crunchy crust, delicious cheese and sauce, loved the old world pepperoni topping. Sort of reminded me of a high-end version of rectangular school-lunch pizza, in a good way. I ordered the Detroit Public Television, 4 squares. It was really tasty, but I felt like the pepperoni under the cheese didn't add anything. I really liked the old world pepperoni on top, so I'll probably try to Detroiter next time. I thought I'd only eat 2 squares, but I ended up eating 3 because it was so tasty. There are some tables outdoors that I might want to try when the weather is nicer. read more

We used to frequent this Buddy's a few times a week but not for the food but actually the service. See the food like many restaurants has gotten worse and the price has only gone up. One example is the kids meals. Same food but nearly TWICE the price! What kept us coming back was the service of Stephanie the bartender. She is a backbone of this location but something else has changed recently. The new coffee shop next door has opened which has led to parking issues, trash everywhere and a how do we say a change in the neighborhood. These new issues coupled with the food quality and price issues are things not even Stephanie can fix and the reason we and many others won't be back. RIP Buddy's Troy, it was good while it lasted. P.S. Your new points system is stupid. read more

We attended this restaurant because a group of our friends were meeting up there. The service was really good. Overall, the quality of their food is excellent. The pizza tasted good but unfortunately, not sure I would get that pizza again as got an upset stomach. This is the place to come if you like Detroit style pizza for sure. Very much a pizza bar style vibe. There's something for everyone on the menu. Give them a try. read more

Placed a carry out order today. Ordered it well done...came out as TOAST! Counter person must have noticed the problem as she came out to deliver the pizza to me rather than having me come to the counter & opening the box for me to view the pizza. I should have checked it before leaving... had a long day & have been caring for spouse, the last two weeks, who is recovering from recent surgery. We have noted this location has had an issue with the consistency of their pizza for the last year. Will never frequent again! read more

This was our first time at the Troy Buddy's location, and I can say it with certainty that we will be back! Our go to location to eat at is the Farmington Hills location as we do not think that the pizza tastes quite as good at the takeout location closest to us on Woodward. We did not realize there was a new location in Troy until it came up on Google maps. It was a really neat looking, open restaurant. The pizza tasted even better than usual and the minestrone soup was the perfect texture and the buddy bread was also great. read more

In from Chicago so had to try Detroit style pizza. Where else than the restaurant that started it. Very nice place, service was excellent. Pizza was great, and unexpected, I thought it was just bread pizza, it's not. Flavor was amazing And crust is to die for. Only other thing we ordered were cheese sticks and they also were great. read more

Just ok. Pizza, Cesar salad, veggie platter..all just okay. The service was friendly, the gentleman who assisted our table was very nice, and helpful. Food came in a timely manner. The place is clean, and great for big parties. read more

7/2/23 We initially went to another Buddy's Pizza (not sure where exactly since I'm not familiar with the area), but the wait time there was an hour so we went to another Buddy's location in Troy. Following my review from The Henry Ford Museum, it was rainy all day and just like at the museum, it seemed like EVERYONE wanted to go to Buddy's. I thought "Wow, this pizza place must be good if a lot of people are coming here".... When we got to the second Buddy's location, there was a shorter wait of about 15 minutes. Compared to an hour, 15 minutes wasn't too bad, but we had to wait that long for a table because they were short-staffed. Large sections of the restaurant were vacant as they were trying to keep most of the patrons in one section. Here's what we ordered to share: - Antipesto - Spicy Italian (8 square) pizza - Greek town (4 square) pizza - Wings (mostly Zach) We waited about another 15 minutes for everything to come. The salad came first which looked very sad and unappetizing. The wings were teeny tiny with barely any meat on them. The quantity of the pizzas were good for the 4 of us (we had leftovers), but the pizzas were pretty greasy. Service was terrible since they were short-staffed. It took forever to get water refills and utensils. I've definitely had waaay better pizza than this. read more

Happy hour is from 2-6 pm, not 5 pm like it used to be or what it says online. Come on and get select beers and wine half off. See photo of menu. Happy hour food too.

She is friendly, knowledge about the food and is very attentive with great service. This is worth the stop! read more

Buddy's Pizza Troy - Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Troy, Michigan

Got chicken parm and super 6 mile. First time here and it seemed like a glorified dominoes or pizza hut. The chicken parm, while nothing wrong, was nothing special. Plain spaghetti noodles, cheese melted on top of chicken breast, with plenty of bread on the side. Their marinara sauce is pretty good but something I would come back for. The super 6 mile pizza was a disappointment. We wanted to see what Detroit style pizza was like. It is very bready, not much sauce - so little sauce I had to ask for extra sauce. Crust was slightly crispy on the edges. Overall I don't think it is worth the 28$ for the 8 slice. Service was ok and attentive, although basic things like extra silverware was missed. Good ambiance. Good lighting. Good decorations. Just unfortunately food was sub-par. read more

WOW! Not much else quite covers it! We went here for a birthday dinner! Excellent pizza and service! We came for the Detroit staple we all know and love and it did not disappoint! The beer choices were also a pleasant surprise, Buddy's has teamed up with Griffen Claw to create their own brews! Love it! There were a couple private events happening so the atmosphere was busy but pleasant. The service however was still on point! Staff didn't miss a beat! We really enjoyed our experience and won't hesitate to come back! read more

This place has ruined my love for their pizza. After being a customer for over 45 years I'm finally done with this place, between the over priced pizza's, order screw ups and rewards points that can never be used I'm done!!! My brother gave up on them last year now i know why!!! read more

Buddy's is one of those staples here in Detroit. They've got Detroit-style pizza that rivals many other local spots. I've only ever had Jets pizza and I'm fine with it, but wanted to try other local shops. We ordered online, then came for pickup. We got 8 slices to share of the pepperoni pizza. It's very delicious! You can really taste that they made the sauce themselves. The crust was nice as well. Not as greasy as Jet's. The cheese also tasted like a mixture. It's also Wisconsin cheese! Overall, I was impressed! It was tasty. They didn't seem to have tons of pepperoni, but I didn't mind it! They put pepperoni at the bottom then cheese, then put the sauce on the top. I like this method! You can really appreciate all the layers of a pizza, rather than the toppings overpowering it! read more

Buddy's is the best! I love the Detroit public pizza. The salads are also great. I love having a Buddy's in Troy!

So first time trying this place. I got a coupon for free pizza with purchase so I placed an order online which was very easy and the girl was very nice. It's nice that they have a separate entrance for pickup orders, it makes things so much easier. My pizza was waiting for me in the warmer so it was nice and hot when I got it. Huge big tumbs up for having vegan cheese available. I usually order Jets when I crave deep dish pizza but they don't have any vegan cheese. The downside is that Jets is much cheaper than Buddy's. Small pizza is like half the price when they have promo. I had their Eastern Market Veggie with vegan cheese (at no extra cost) and hubby got classic pepperoni. We really enjoyed them. Nice flavor, a lot of cheese also on the vegan one and crunchy but not greasy crust. I will definitely be back for more! read more

Check-in on Yelp for 10% off coupon. It's a newer spot along the row of new spots along big beaver. We didn't get turned away and the kitchen was open too. Stephanie is waiting on us tonight. It's the quietest buddy's I have ever been to yet. It just feels chilled here. Ordered a medium Greek salad with mostly romaine lettuce only (used for the Caesar), GF eastern market veggie with garlic, spinach, chicken and yellow peppers, no tomatoes and a 4 square GF with pineapple, jalapeños and chicken. The Greek salad was good, dressing is good here. Lettuce is not all so green, some red Romaine veins. The veggie pizza isn't too bad. I didn't get my yellow pepper instead of the tomato, just no tomatoes is all. The garlic, spinach and chicken at least made in my pizza. The GF dough isn't bad, potato based, slightly crunchy on the outer edges. The middle is a bit soft and doughy though. The pizzas were decent. Stephanie is nice and was attentive too. read more

We introduced Detroit-style pizza to relatives visiting from Florida. We took them to Buddy's in Troy on a Saturday evening before they flew home. Ruby was our server, and she was great! Helped with making recommendations and answering our questions. We shared wings, the Sicilian deep dish pizza, the antipasto salad -- more than enough for the 4 of us! Our relatives kept saying how good the food was. It got a little busy around 6 pm, but it was still easy to talk, not too loud place. Easy and close parking. I highly recommend this location! read more

The pizza is great! Detroit style is definitely different than other pizza in such a great way!

Delicious food and wonderful service at the bar. We will return and try other options on the menu.

We are visiting from SoCal for a wedding and took up the bride'a recommendation to try Buddy's Pizza. If you are visiting Detroit, it is important to try the Detroit Pizza. It is deep fried and square shaped as you can see. We ended up sharing the 8 piece between the three of us, and it was definitely enough food. It reminds me of the Chicago pizza but lighter. The crust reminds me of French bread, which is charred and crispy. We ended up customizing half and half. One half was the BBQ Conant which consisted of chicken, red onions and cilantro, and the other side was the Detroiter which I believe is their version of their pepperoni style pizza. I really enjoyed the seasoning of the BBQ combat, and the layering of the pepperoni pizza. read more

Food was subpar and not to the standards I was used to hence living in metro Detroit. The large pizza I ordered was "doughy" and the crisp Detroit style pizza I was accustomed to growing up in SE Michigan. This pizza was all dough with very little crispness when I ordered it to be on the well done crispy side of the ledger. I am not sure if it was the location or the inferior preparation at this location, but I will not ever order a pizza from this location on my future travels. read more

This location just opened October 26th, so it's still working out the kinks; we used the app to order our dinner on Friday, and although the app said our order would be ready at 6pm, we received a call from the manager, after my husband left to pick it up, saying they were slammed and the food wouldn't be ready until 6:45pm. My husband said the restaurant had a huge line for pickup, and the staff were doing the best they could. We get it; new location working things out, and lots of excitement; we weren't upset. Food was worth the wait. Buddy's is my favorite, and they didn't disappoint! Greek salad was perfect--I love love love their signature red wine vinegar dressing. We got three large pizzas (large deep dish is 8 pieces) and one small (4 pieces) in a variety of toppings--everyone was happy! My favorite thing about Detroit deep dish is the Wisconsin brick cheddar; cannot wait to move back home and have Buddy's on the regular!! read more
