Delicious pizza
Jeffrey W.

Cloverleaf is putting out one of the best pizzas in the area. Sit by the bar and have some beer and pizza. The service and food are great

Small D-Style: Mushrooms, black olives, basil.

Out the gate, this stop was one of my personal highlights of having D-Style pizza in Detroit. Every single list and reviewer has this spot as a must-stop, so I had to experience it for myself. I REALLY like this pizza, and it really felt like I was eating something special finally while in Detroit. The ambiance of the restaurant and the wait staff adds to the allure and charm of the pizza. Very good service, which is so key for me, and the various classic photos and artifacts on the wall give this spot a unique vibe that gives it that blue-collar appeal. I even had the clam chowder as an appetizer (not pictured), but it's a very wide bowl, so bring your A-game appetite here. The ONLY things that hindered this spot for me giving it 5 stars is that they don't have ginger beer as a beverage option, and the sauce was just a tease. It's like a tablespoon on sauce on top for each slice, so if I return, I would ask for extra-extra sauce on the side. Other than that, I would HIGHLY recommend this spot! They close pretty early compared to other places, so you need to be inside and seated by 7p if your gonna dine in. You don't want them putting up chairs around your feast!

Our favorite pizza around. Cute restaurant that's been around for years. I love dining in compared to going to one of their carry out spots. The service is good. Their gluten free pizza is some of the best I've eaten. Be sure if they're busy to put your pizza or bread orders in right away especially if you're getting gluten free. They have a nice fireplace and bar area too. We will definitely be back when we want to eat our pizza somewhere other than home.

We went to Cloverleaf on a Sunday right when they opened and were the 2nd party in the restaurant. We ordered pretty quickly and the pizza took a bit over 35 minutes to arrive. Large Old World Pepperoni Pizza - I think the most notable thing about Cloverleaf vs. other Detroit-style places is how garlic forward it is. They seem to add an entire layer of slivered garlic right on top of the crust - delicious. The sauce is slightly sweet and tangy, probably not made in house but is appropriate for the pizza. The pepperoni was as good as advertised. In terms of crust development, one end of the pizza was absolutely perfect with a fantastically crispy caramelized cheese layer and a very nice fried bottom crust. The other side unfortunately was a bit wan, still good but the crispiness was definitely lacking. I wonder if the oven just wasn't evenly heated. Regardless, Cloverleaf certainly has a great Detroit style pizza and I would be happy to go again.

I was on a mission to find the best Detroit style pizza while visiting Detroit, MI. Thankfully, one of our colleagues who is a local suggested and treated my friends and me to Cloverleaf Bar and Pizza, it's the originator of Detroit-style pizza since 1946. This establishment was founded by Gus Guerra, who also co-owned "Buddy's", another renowned pizza place. We were fortunate enough to meet Marie, one of the owners, who informed us that they still use the original recipe while Buddy's made some alterations to theirs. Cloverleaf has remained a family-owned business for three generations and is one of the oldest pizzerias in the Detroit area. They brought us a delicious sweet and savory crunchy bread, served hot and topped with parmesan. If you never had Detroit-Style Pizza before it is known for its square or rectangular shape, thick and airy crust, and its unique layering of toppings with cheese at the bottom and sauce on top, Caramelized Cheese Edges, and flavorful crust,that has that nice crunch. We also enjoyed their award-winning meatballs, antipasto salad, and the delicious whipped cheesecake for dessert. We even got a glance at the oven that creates this magic! A big thank you to Marie and her staff for their excellent service, hospitality, and of course, the delicious food. I'll make sure to visit Cloverleaf Bar & Restaurant whenever I'm in town. You can find them at 24443 Gratiot Ave, Eastpointe, MI 48021.

Love the pizza, but Taylor on the phone was very rude. Don't think we will be going back to the Eastpointe location because of her.
