Northside Nathan's Detroit Pizza

This place's specialty is Detroit style pizza which if you've never had it is cooked in a pan with the ingredients right up to the edge of the crust, giving the cheese in particular a nice caramelized crisp. The crust itself is in-between a thin New York style and a thick Chicago one. They also go pretty heavy on the ingredients, lots of cheese and the like. I personally love them but if you don't like a little grease on the pizza this place might not be for you. Although I've noticed they've started offering thin crust I've never had it so I can't say how it is. The interior is a little on the smaller side but they make the most of it. The atmosphere reminds me of old school pizza joints in the 80s it's on the darker side and it has a few arcade machines and small bar. The service is decent I've never had a bad experience and everyone is friendly.

Neighborhood pizzeria with delicious Detroit style pizza. Super friendly staff. I love the deep dish pizza but the traditional round is just as good. Tons of other options besides pizza salads, subs, and pastas. They even have a bar with some TVs for the dads that might need that extra something something to get them through the night. Bar has a couple gambling machines for adults if you want to try your luck. Great place for sport team gatherings and large groups. Pizza is good to go but even better fresh when you great it here.

This place has some GREAT pizza! It’s pretty close to Detroit style, but the crust isn’t quite as thick as I’m used to seeing, and the corners are not quite as crisp. But don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t take anything away from how good it is. The round “thin crust” was also very good. It’s thicker denser dough than your typical thin crust which I definitely enjoyed. I’d love the chance to stop here again!

Delicious pizza! It was my first time trying it last night and I love the options for the 15 inch pizza. You could accommodate several different taste buds because you can choose toppings for 4 sections. Best thing about it was the crunchy sides and bottom of the pizza and the chewy center. How do they do that? I waited about 15 minutes longer than the time I was given when I ordered it online, but I'm a really patient person so I understood. Plus, I like when it's fresh out of the oven. I ate a slice in the car! One tweak they could make to the time estimate is to either overestimate the time it will be ready or give a time range of +15 mins. As a service effort, they could offer you a small complimentary soft drink or water, or a sample of garlic bread or a chicken wing or something while you wait. You might get people to add to their order this way. One other thing to note is that in my comments of the order, I asked for sauce on the side and I didn't ending up getting it. I realized it after I left the restaurant and was at home. I guess I didnt need it! I do like addind sauce to my pizza though and I'm happy to pay for extra sauce, so if that was the case then they should have let me know. I honestly just think it was an oversight. Looks like a nice place to hang out too as they have booths and a bar in the back. My order was a takeout. They close a little early, I think, for a Friday night. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of what I ordered but I'll be back soon.

I ordered a small Detroit style pizza and a small smoked wings. The wings were good— some of the best I've had from a pizza joint— but did not have even a hint of smoked flavor. The pizza here was also good, though the crust was too thin for a proper Detroit style pizza. Also, while they advertised sauce on top on the menu (not actually a requirement of the Detroit style), they did not actually serve with any sauce on top. My biggest complaint is probably the Canadian hockey jersey inside a otherwise nicely Detroit themed dining room. Still, I would recommend this place and am highly likely to return myself when in the area.
