Our Story

Detroit style square pizza and the original Torpedo sub, on Hall Road in Utica since 1956.

Paul A. Buscemi opened a small party store in Detroit and introduced the neighborhood to the Italian submarine sandwich. Three generations later, the Torpedo is still built the same way, and it is waiting for you on Hall Road.

What is Detroit style pizza?


Detroit style pizza is a square, deep pan pizza with a light, airy crumb and a crispy, caramelized cheese edge. The cheese goes all the way to the corners of the steel pan, and the sauce goes on top. That red stripe over the cheese is the signature. It was invented in Detroit in the 1940s, and it is the pizza this family has been baking since 1956.

Ours is hand stretched and baked fresh every day at 8315 Hall Rd in Utica, just off M-59 and minutes from Sterling Heights, Shelby Township, and Clinton Township. Grab it hot and ready, or call ahead at 586-731-5930.

What is a Torpedo® sub?
