Had a delicious lunch at this Detroit style pizza spot. The MVP pizza was just the right combination of crunchy, cheesy and saucy perfection. Try the watermelon burrata salad (Summer menu only!) if on the menu, it’s so sweet, salty, spicy, and tangy. The portions are quite large especially the fries so it’s easy to overorder. Great attentive service and nice atmosphere. - Petrit Ndrio

Located at 1426 3rd Ave, this establishment has quickly gained a reputation for its unique and delicious take on pizza. What sets Emmy Squared apart is its specialty in Detroit-style pizza, known for its iconic square shape, crispy-on-the-outside, airy-on-the-inside crust, and a signature caramelized cheese edge.
