Jet’s Pizza

They used to be awesome. Over the years they have jacked up their prices extremely high… And have lost the quality In their once great deep dish pizzas .used to be a dedicated customer. Now I’ve turned to a different pizza company that drives for customer service and not just make tons of profit. And the employees and managers here are completely rude. Delivery is extra slow. Takes about 1 hour to 1 ½ hours to get your cold cold pizza. If you do eat here… Just go pick it up.

I always order delivery from Jets. The delivery drivers are the best. The last guy who delivered our pizza was amazing! The pizza was delicious and its nice to have a delivery guy who can smile and be friendly in this crazy world we live in!

Based off a pizza that was «transferred» down to Florida. I could see the piece had a nice build up of crisped cheesy edges. I had to nuke it but it was still fabulous. It had a nice oil-​laden fry to the bottom, not too greasy. Sauce was not over-​powering with good seasoning and the pepperoni was tasty as well. These parts played the secondary role to the crisp dough well.
I also had two pieces of cheesy deep dish bread and it too was delicious, but not nearly as divine as the thick crust square pie. Bravo.

The last time I was in Michigan, the GF’s folks ordered us pizza from Jet’s, a local pizzeria chain. I silently scoffed. As a New Yorker, I tend to be a bit snobbish when considering pizza that isn’t from the five boroughs. Other than a cheesy deep dish from Chicago (which I don’t consider a real slice, but certainly delicious), I’m usually hard pressed to find a slice I can stand. However, as soon as I took a bite of Jet’s — I stood corrected. In fact, I nearly ate an entire pie myself.
So when I came back to Michigan this year, one of the things I was looking forward to was biting into another square of Jet’s pies.
But first, let’s whet our appetites with some salad …
Large Antipasto Salad ($ 8.49)
Lettuce, Ham, Salami, Premium Mozzarella Cheese, Tomatoes, and Black Olives.
This hefty salad is advertised as feeding 3 to 4 … but easily fills twice the amount of people as an appetizer. It’s a nice mix of fresh greens, grape tomatoes, salami, olives, and mountainous amounts of mozzarella. In fact — Jet’s may overdo it with the amount of cheese they stack onto this salad — it’s almost laughable — in a gluttonous way, which is the only way I know.
But what are we really here for? The 8 corner pie from Jet’s …
8 Corner Pizza — Pepperoni ($ 13.98)
8 delicious deep dish slices, each with its own corner crust
These delicious squares are incredibly buttery and cheesy — the best of both worlds. Jet’s makes it so that each of these is a corner slice — pretty genius if you ask me because the crust is like heaven in your mouth — perfectly crispy. If you’ve ever had Pizza Hut before — you know just how buttery those pan pies can be. However, they usually taste of artificial spray out of a can. Jet’s is not this way — just delicious goodness.
Super Special — Square Pizza ($ 17.35)
Premium Mozzarella Cheese, Pepperoni, Ham, Mushrooms, Onions, and Green Peppers.
This is similar to the 8 corner pizza, without the crust. It’s just as cheesy and buttery, just without the crispy crust of the 8 corner. This iteration comes loaded with meats and veggies. It’s crispy underneath, but perfectly pillowy throughout.
Super Special Pizza ($ 17.35)
Premium Mozzarella Cheese, Pepperoni, Ham, Mushrooms, Onions, and Green Peppers.
This rendition of the super special is in typical triangular pie form. Not as buttery as the square pies, but just as delicious.
Overall, the second time was just as good as the first. Everything I love about a good pizza pie is inherent in a Jet’s pie. Beautifully buttery and crispy — you almost forget about all the calories you’re ingesting. The only real downside? There is no Jet’s back on the East Coast.
Can’t wait for my next trip back to Michigan.
