I'm from the Detroit area and grew up going to Buddy's Pizza (very similar to Jet's) and we would order delivery from Jet's when we couldn't get to Buddy's. It just reminds me of home and brings a smile to my face when I eat it.
In 2007 we moved from the Detroit area to North Carolina and one of the things I missed most was Detroit-style, deep-dish pizza.
When we moved to Johns Creek in December of 2011, I never in a million years would have guessed that we'd find a Jet's pizza here. It's like a taste of home each time we order.
A few things that I love most about Jet's are:
1- Their ranch dressing I could drink it by the cup it's so good. Not only is it the best ranch I've ever tasted, but it's made from scratch, in-house. Yumm-o!!
2- If you're going to order their pizza, you MUST get the deep-dish to try at least once. It's so delicious and get it with Turbo Crust. You can thank me later. ;-) However, if you're not a fan of the deep-dish, you should give their thin-crust a try. It's cracker-like and thin... so good.
3- Hands down, they've got the best salads in the pizza market. My favorite is the Greek, though I hate that I have to pay extra for black olives instead of kalamata, and I hate that I have to pay extra for croutons.
4- I'm not one to order dessert when ordering pizza. However, I have had the pleasure of tasting their cinnamon bread and I give it five starts. :-)
5- Coupons/Deals If you order online, be sure to check their coupons/deals to see if you can save yourself some $$$
What I don't like about Jet's (and why I give it 4 stars instead of 5):
1- The price. It's one of the more expensive pizza chains and as a result, we only order from there occasionally instead of it being our go-to place. If we order a small pizza, cheese bread, and salad, we're talking close to $30 when all is said and done.
2- The time for delivery If you order delivery expect AT LEAST an hour for your pizza to arrive. It's mainly because of the traffic in the area, so just be sure to plan ahead if you're going to order.
3- Easy to mess up an online order I wanted to add extra cheese on my pizza and somehow, I managed to order my pizza without ANY cheese. When it came, I was shocked to see no cheese on my pizza (after waiting for more than an hour AND paying an arm and a leg for said pizza)... we called to tell them that they messed up our order, and they rudely said it was our fault. So we checked... and unfortunately, it was. However, their ridiculous attitude when we called about it was just off-putting. Word to the wise, if you alter your order from the standard... be prepared to pay more and potentially have it get messed up.
4- If you ever go there for a tour (I went with my MOMS Club chapter) be prepared to pay. We went and were never told that there was a charge... they gave us an awesome tour behind the scenes and then told us they'd be bringing out some pizza and bread for everyone. We were surprised and appreciative... and then everyone ate and most of the group left... and the manager came out and said we had to pay. It was over $100 for food that none of us ordered. Just be aware if you do ever go for a tour, you WILL be expected to pay. read more
