Detroit-Style Pizza Place Coming to Williamsville

One of the things that Buffalo is best known for is food. We have great food here and so many great local places to get it from.

Outside of wings and beef on weck, the food item we take the most pride in is probably Buffalo-style pizza.

Buffalo-style pizza is a slightly thicker crust with extra cheese, toppings that extend far out to the crust, along with a sweeter tomato sauce and cup-and-char pepperoni. It's glorious and while not the healthiest thing for you, there's no doubt it's great for lunch or dinner.
