on Citysearch Nov 10, 2009I read some of the reviews of 'bad service' etc. so I was expecting rude service with an ok pizza. Nope. The waitress greeted me within 1 minute of walking in. I placed an order to go: a small pizza. Got home, took 3 bites... (more)

on Citysearch May 10, 2009There's simply no comparison. Buddy's, Primo's, Shield's, Pizza Papalis - I intend no disrespect and you are all outstanding - but Louis' is the king! This is the most perfect pizza I've ever had. Louis has taken his... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 22, 2009Every time I'm in Detroit, I make a point to stop in and have Louis' deep dish pizza and antipasto salad with their house dressing. Louis' pizza and antipasto is the best pizza in Detroit if not the world. It makes my... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 17, 2008You know, Loui has worked for BOTH Buddies AND Shield's pizza places. So, his food (especially his pizza) takes the best of both and puts it forward. His pizza is like Buddy's ON STEROIDS. DON'T MISS OUT on this place!!... (more)

on Judys Book Jul 25, 2006It's a bold statement but I believe it's very much true: Louis' Pizza has the best pizza in metro Detroit! The decor is basically persevered in time capsule from 1965 and it's not exactly in a quaint part of town - but the... (more)
