Caliente Pizza & Drafthouse - Bloomfield is known for its award-winning pizza and chicken wings, yet many still find it underrated. The restaurant offers a variety of delicious options, including Buffalo Romano wings, which are rated 10/10, and fresh cut fries that are also highly praised. Their pizza is considered better than many Italian mom and pop shops and is recognized as one of the best Detroit style pizzas in the city. Customers enjoy the Grandma Ruffa pizza with ricotta, and the Detroit style pizza with pepperoni, spicy sauce, mushrooms, and vegan cheese is described as fluffy and spicy gloriousness. The Brooklyn pizza with the Caliente honey is insanely good, and the Mediterranean salad with lemon vinaigrette and no feta is very popular. Diners appreciate friendly and helpful staff who go the extra mile, along with reasonably priced food and drinks. The inside features a large bar and tables, with a back area that some may not explore. The ambiance is typical for a bar, but the focus on quality food stands out. Customers recommend ordering ahead for popular items like the Last Night Yinzer pizza, which is delicious, especially when shared. However, some note that getting table service can be slow, often requiring visits to the bar for checks and to-go containers. Despite the high prices, some customers feel the toppings, such as sausage and mushrooms on large pizzas, are sometimes sparse, which can be disappointing.
