“Duncan was awesome in helping me figure out what I needed for out church lunch. When I came in to pick up my order 2 days later, the crew had everything ready. The food was hot and my group loved the pizza! Definitely will use them again for church functions.“

“We live right around the corner from this Little Caesars pizza, and they make really good pizza, different from others! It’s always fresh and it does seem to be better than the other franchises around!

We want to give a good shout out to Aaron, he was really polite and nice, he made us a fresh pizza, and also walked out to the car to deliver it to us in our car in 15° snowy weather! It’s people like this that you need for a great service! Thanks Aaron!“

“I had such a great experience at Aurora, and Alana made it even better. She was so sweet, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we sat down. She checked on us at the perfect times, made sure everything came out right, and had such a positive attitude throughout the whole service. You can tell she really cares about her guests and takes pride in what she does. I would definitely come back and ask for Alana again!“

“I had a great experience. Brooke picked out the best dinner since I was undecided.“

“My wife and I used to go to the Sterling Heights Restaurant and loved it very much. Especially their pizza! We ran accross the Clarkston location about 3 years or so ago and have taken many family members and friends there. Unfortunately, they won't serve their larger family size pizza to inside diners. They only serve it to carry out clients. Several times, especially after we were given back our freedom, we were making plans to go to dinner with friends for pizza and I suggested going there. My wife reminded me they only serve personal pan pizza's. Unfortunately, they do not taste the same. So, we choose Pizza Mia in Grand Blanc when we wan't pizza. We do go to Boligna's when it isn't a pizza night. Unfortunate!“

“I had a fantastic visit here recently and can’t recommend it enough.

From the moment you walk in, the location and decoration create such a welcoming vibe it’s stylish but felt remarkably quiet and peaceful, which I really appreciated.

The service is where they truly shine. They clearly know what they’re doing here. We were looked after by a young man named Drew, who was incredibly kind and professional. His service was 'on-point' the entire time attentive without being intrusive.

As for the food, it was delicious. I ordered the pasta, and it was exactly what I was hoping for yummy, fresh, and they nailed the spice level perfectly. I also had the village salad, which was a great, fresh pairing.

I will surely be going back again soon!“

“Absolutely loved this place! The food was delicious, the service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was just beautiful. From the stunning view to the elegant decor, everything came together for a truly memorable dining experience. Can’t wait to come back!“

“you go there you're family...“

“Ate at Holly Red Devil tonight. FANTASTIC! It had been almost 3 years, too long since I had been there. Couldn't get anyone to join me. A lot of "too expensive" complaints. They were so wrong. I will get 2 1/2 to 3 other meals out of this one meal. My opinion....by far the best food in Holly. Only issue is parking. I really wish Red Devil would invest in local delivery. I think it would be profitable.“

“Village Pizza catered and delivered food for my son's birthday and they did a fantastic job. The food was delicious, arrived on time, and the order was perfect. I also have to be gluten free, and I loved that there were GF options for me!“

“Great thin pizza - cooked quickly in a wood fire oven - salad was very fresh“

“Cheeseburger medium is excellent“

“Amazing food, great prices, friendly staff, pretty much everything.“

“It’s a great place, with great food and service. My family and I love to come here, but the reservation system doesn’t work well. Even with a reservation you might need to wait 20-30’ in lie. Either they don’t have a good system or don’t respect it. That is definitely an area to improve.“

“We’ve used Crispellis catering twice now - back in 2022 and now 2023 - both times the food was delicious and the delivery was on time, the set up was very helpful. The food was piping hot and packaged well to travel. They make the process easy and seamless. I cannot recommend them enough.“

“My family has loved Calabrese for 13 years and counting!!! You always feel like family when you walk in the door ♡♡ best Italian in town!!!! Anna is a true GEM! PRICES ARE MORE THAN AFFORDABLE!!! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟“

“What a wonderful man running the place! And delicious pizza too! 😍 thank you for the wonderful experience!“

“Back in April we camped down the street and it was cold and rainy so we found a "random" pizza place to get food since we didnt feel like cooking. It was really great pizza! So great that we were back in the area this weekend and grabbing pizza and cheese bread from there was our choice for our dinner. The staff was super friendly and food delicious, again. This will be a place we stop at every time we are in the area. Yum!“

“Friendly atmosphere and attentive staff“

“We stopped in for breakfast this morning, just as they were opening, it was busy already, all at once! The staff handled the guests with grace, a smile and great service. The food was AMAZING. Even after helping settling up our table, then cooking, the owner came back to check on us and help bus the table. They did a fantastic job on all aspects!!!“

“I recently stopped by Nino’s Italian Bakery and had another really great experience. The donuts were fresh, soft, and perfectly sweet — especially the ones with sprinkles and chocolate frosting. You can tell they’re made with care.

The coffee was hot, smooth, and a perfect match with the donuts. The customer service was friendly and welcoming, and the staff always make you feel appreciated.

Over the past few years, we’ve been going there regularly, and they have always been excellent. It’s consistent quality every time.

Overall, a great local spot for donuts and coffee. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in Walled Lake. I’ll be back again!“

“Worked late tonight and didn’t want a pizza. Bought a Jetzie. Wonderful. I’ve got a new favorite.“

“First time ordering pizza from there. Actually it was very good. We like to frequent Mom and Pop establishments only. Not the commercial pizza places (Jets, Happy's,Pizza Hut, Domino's, Hungry Howie's). We will definitely go again“

“Best pizza 🍕 and bread sticks! Had the salad 🥗 too and it was so good.“

“Cauliflower crust pizza with Alfredo sauce, chicken, and jalapeños was absolutely delicious! The crust was light and crispy, and the toppings had the perfect balance of flavor and spice. Great quality and fresh taste. Highly recommend trying it at Cottage Inn Pizza! 🍕“

“Great pizza! Used the phone BOT and was VERY impressed!“

“I've ordered from this particular location for several years and never been disappointed, The pizza is excellent. The staff has always been very nice. I had a conversation with the owner who was very helpful, answered all my questions, and I really appreciated him very much. I recommend highly Jets Pizza in Wixom....“

“It was exactly what I wanted but unfortunately it was an online order and once I got to the place and I saw all these other things they had I was going wow so the guy was played enough to hand me a menu right there which I opened my eyes a little bit brighter and on the overall though this place was really great and the pizza was perfect I mean exactly what I wanted the way I wanted it“

“Both Alex and Kennedy are the bomb! Great customer service which have made me a regular!“

“Super Special deep dish pizza was amazing! Flavored crust is so good…..
Antipasto Salad was so good too with their Ranch dressing! Tasted very fresh!
Delivery employee was very pleasant and efficient!
Delivered fast and the pizza was very warm!:-)
Will definitely order from this location again!
Keep up the good work to all.“

“I always try to find a pizza place that isn't a chain, but when you have to step away from that, Jet's is my go-to. Jet 10 Detroit-style deep dish is one of the best pizza's every created. This place knocked it out of the park like they always do!“

“I have always loved Jets pizza it's delicious. But the management at this location goes above and beyond on every level! So lucky that this location is close to me. We love our Jets pizza parties in this house ❤🍕“

“I’m a DOOR DASHER, last week after just getting my car back that morning, it wouldn’t start and I just went back in after picking up an order and asked if anyone had jumper cables. Basically I was in a state of panic as I had 2 orders to deliver! Kylie immediately said she had cables and offered to help me.
After both of us attempting to hook her car up to the cables and time was passing I said I need to get these orders delivered, Kylie went and switched places with her coworker Braeden and we were able to get me back on the road.
I can’t write a good enough review to show my appreciation and gratitude for these two workers. In a time where it is difficult to see people genuinely help others this truly meant the world to me!
This post is about the atmosphere and the staff!
Go to Buddy’s in Clarkston for above and beyond great service!“
