The Original Buscemi's, with several locations in Michigan, began in the 1950s as a party store selling subs and expanded to pizza, becoming a local staple.  And Food Network says this isn't your typical party store pizza:

The Original Buscemi's is one of the few local spots that offers slices of Detroit's famous thick-crusted square pizza made in the traditional style of cheese first, then sauce. It all starts with fresh dough that's made daily. The dough is blanketed with a thick layer of 100% real mozzarella Grande cheese, then slathered with homemade tomato sauce made from vine-ripened California tomatoes.

Try your pizza by the slice or take home a specialty pizza such as the Everything Pizza or Philly Cheesteak pizza, topped with thinly sliced ribeye, mushrooms, onions, green peppers, and extra cheese.
