Buddy's Restaurant & Pizzeria, Detroit-style pizzeria in Washtenaw County, United States.
Buddy's Restaurant & Pizzeria is a Detroit-style pizzeria in Washtenaw County that produces square-shaped pies with a thick, spongy crust and crispy bottom. The space features a large dining area with modern furnishings and neon signage.
The business started in 1946 and introduced Detroit-style pizza, which changed local food culture through its distinctive shape and texture. This innovation made the square pizza an important part of regional food history.
The place preserves Michigan's food traditions through a signature sauce that blends sweet tomato with salty cheese and pepperoni in a specific way. This flavor combination has been central to the local food culture for generations.
The restaurant is located near Meijer on Ann Arbor Saline Road and opens daily for service. Diners can choose between eating inside, taking food away, or having it delivered.
Each pizza is made with a special layering method where toppings sit underneath the cheese rather than on top. This creates a caramelized edge when baked in special steel pans.
