Upper West Side Is Getting A Detroit-Style Pizzeria

UPPER WEST SIDE, NY — For those who don't know, Detroit-style pizza has a rectangular shape, equipped with a light and airy dough, browned cheese, and a thick crust.

There aren't many Motor City pizzerias in New York City, but a new spot is about to open on the Upper West Side that serves up the style of pie.

Jet's Pizza is opening soon at 728 Amsterdam Ave., between West 95th and 96th streets. It will be the restaurant's third location in Manhattan.

The exact opening date is not specified.

"At Jet's Pizza, being square is delicious! We're known for our uber cheesy pizza, with fresh veggies and quality toppings," reads the Jet's Pizza website. "Our buttery Detroit-style square pizza is legendary, with its signature crunch and an aromatic Flavorized crust."

The incoming UWS pizza spot has a few other traits that make it unique, such as making its own ranch sauce from scratch and offering "flavorized" crusts, which include butter, romano, poppy seed, sesame seed, garlic, and cajun options.

Outside of the Detroit-style pie, Jet's also offers the following styles: hand-tossed round, thin, New York-style, seasoned cauliflower, and gluten-free.

There are also salads and wings.

Jet's Pizza has locations in 19 states.

You can find out more about the pizza chain coming to the Upper West Side on its website.
