Here at Pizza Pushers in Algonquin. The menu is very simple with a few different choices. This is Detroit style pizza that comes in one size. My veggie pizza was $21 and took about 30 min to prepare. I grabbed mine after it was ready and took it home. My pizza was nothing extra ordinary or special, but it was good. Service was friendly. read more

Pizza Pushers - Detroit style veggie pizza - Pizza Near Me - Algonquin, Illinois

We love this place it's one of our regulars! The psycho sticks are sooooo insanely good! We love the veggie pizza and cheese we prefer the pizza without the Parmesan for some reason. The staff is always super nice. read more

Awesome Detroit-style pizza. I tried the veggie and cheese pizzas and MAN are they good. The dough is perfectly crunchy with edges crisped to perfection. The toppings tasted fresh and flavorful as well. They serve the pizza on a cooling rack atop a tray that way your pizza stays crunchy and doesn't get a soggy bottom! Service was TOP NOTCH despite being super busy with orders. I will for sure be back! read more

Best pizza ever! I had the Detroit Style with the garlic butter crust. Definitely a great pizza and worth trying!

All I wanted for dinner was 40 chicken tendies or a good pizza. I didn't get either. Instead, I got a great pizza and a wonderful moment with my kids. It was very obvious that they care about what they are putting in front of you. And I have to say, easily the best pizza I've ever eaten. Check this place out 5 out of 5 read more

Went there with my wife back in December for the first time. We did a pepperoni and green pepper and it was perfect. I wish they would open a second location at the now closed Alfredo's on Algonquin Rd near Lakewood Rd. They would be a huge success there. read more

Pizza is great, psycho sticks are great, owners are awesome. Definitely worth the visit.

The food was AWESOME, they were spot on with the service and the ambiance felt very home like. Small place, but GREAT food. Would definitely go back. I'd give them 6 stars if I could, read more

Amazing pizza and friendly service which is rare these days. I will be going back for sure.

I was in the mood for pizza this past weekend I remembered that Pizza Pushers just opened and they offered Detroit Style Pizza. I'm not for one to applaud a business owner to open up another pizza joint in the area or even another mexican food joint as we are over saturated with these kinds of restaurant in the area but Pizza Pushers is the exception in that they offer the different Detroit Style Pizza that you can hardly find in this area. So hats off to Harry the owner for doing something completely different. I arrived Sunday mid-afternoon after fishing the Fox River all morning and I was hungry! I first walk in and scan the menu and Harry tells me they are offering a lunch special in that all pizzas are $5 off, sweet! I went with my regular pepperoni pizza but I wanted Detroit style. He said it would take about 20 mins for him to make my pie but that was fine with me. Pro-Tip: Plan to wait at least 20 mins for your pizza to be done as these pan style pizza takes a bit of time, so call your order a head! As I was sitting there, Harry says to me, "we are experimenting with our version of the New York thin crust style would you be interested in testing a slice for us?" Being a Yelp Elite member, I feel I've eaten enough pizza to justify and provide my critique of a NY style pizza, so I agreed. Let me tell you the NY slice was amazingly delicious! You want a NY slice to be thin and floppy but not so floppy that the cheese is falling off the pizza when you pick it up. The slice had a great crisp to the back side and man it was freaking good, I'm drooling just thinking about it. It will be a great addition to the menu and I can't wait to stop in a grab another slice of this! So I get my Detroit Style Pepperoni and I thank Harry and I head home. I'd like to preface my review in that I've been to Detroit for business and I've had authentic Detroit style pizza from the one and only Buddy's. Be sure to check out my profile for that review. So in essence, I will be comparing Push Pushers pizzas to that of Buddy's in Detroit. The pizza was nice and hot and based on looks alone it met and exceeded that of any Detroit style pizza. But how did it taste? Well, the edges were cooked to perfection and the dough has the right texture, consistency, and was pretty much spot on to that of Detroit pan style pizza. I was extremely pleased and satisfied. The cheese was made with 5 different cheeses and was gooey and taking each bite had a nice crunch on the back end of the slice. The peperoni was good and overall, I have no bad things to says about the pie and it met my expectations for Detroit style pizza. With that said, I'm excited and happy they are in the neighborhood and it's a great change to all the other pizza joints in the area. I cannot wait to stuff my face with some more NY style pizza and obviously their Detroit style pizza will always have a place on my dinner table. Keep up the great work! read more

Let me start by saying I absolutely HATE Chicago pizza, and rarely if ever get deep dish, and NEVER get Thin/Tavern style "squares" so seeing this place pop up on my Yelp was very promising as I do enjoy Detroit style quite a bit. Sadly, for $46 I will never be back for what amounts to 2 tiny personal pizzas. Redding the reviews I knew they'd be small, but not THIS small, Perhaps I'm being too harsh as I did pick these up to have at home rather than enjoying them there, but unfortunately the two pies I picked didn't taste much different besides one had jalapeños and the other didn't, there was also 0 Hot Honey On the Wild Hog. Next up is Uncle Jerry's in Cary. REALLY would be nice to get some GOOD NY/Jersey Style in the area... I guess I'll have to stick to The Slice Spot in west Chicago, That's Amore in Crystal Lake, and Little Pop's. read more

The pizza is sooooo good! Detroit style is something I never cared about until pizza pushers. It's not greasy like the others the crust is magically crunchy and flavorful. The only thing I caution you is this pizza takes its time, you will have to wait for perfection! So make sure to go hungry and get fed well! read more

I just left with my pick up order. Cheese Pizza. It is divine. Perfect dough, sauce under cheese with a nice dollop of sauce over the top and its the perfect sauce. The cheese is top notch as well. The staff was friendly, fun and very concerned I had to wait a "whole 3 extra minutes". That was sarcastic btw. I shall be back! I love a local, NON chain pizza. Well done! read more

Want a solid Detroit-style pizza in the Chicagoland area? Look no further than Pizza Pushers in Algonquin. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised at the lovely crispy crunch of the crust mixed with the flavorful cheese and sauce. Simply yummy! The owner takes pride in his product and business and was so friendly and came out to ask us how everything was and if he could get us anything. The ambiance is super chill and paneled, with some nostalgic framed posters on the walls. Lots of regulars coming in while we were there. This is the kind of business you just feel good about eating at. I'd say get a pizza for each adult that has a healthy appetite. I promise: one bite and you'll say "daaaayyum" and wonder where this pizza has been all of your life. read more

It was our first time trying their Detroit pizza! It was absolutely delicious! Wonderfully crispy! Everyone in the restaurant was so friendly and helpful!

Great Detriot pizza. Had the hog wild and hell raiser-both amazing. Small enough to share both with someone else and have a few pieces to take home. Started with the Caesar salad with great dressing and homemade croutons. Met one of the owners Jaime great guy. Highly recommend. read more

First time in. Heard great things. They specialize in Detroit style pizza and it was the BEST we have ever had!! Husband had the hog wild and loved that the sauce was drizzled over the top of the pizza. Crust was perfectly cooked and crispy. I loved the quantity of black olives that were on my sausage, mushroom, and black olive pizza. So amazing!! Owners are super cool and friendly. We will be back with friends next time. If you have not tried this pizza you should. read more

By far, the best Detroit style pizza in the area. The dough is light but chewy, cooked perfectly for crispy edges and curled up little pepperoni. The cheese and sauce are flavorful and high quality. I like that the vibe inside reminds me of the 1990s pizza places I remember from living in New York. The owner is super friendly and service for our party of 6 was great. I'm definitely coming back and making this my go-to pizza place for when I'm up in the area for work. read more

What a fun delicious pizza! The pizza pushers claim to fame is Detroit style pizza which this Chicago girl never heard of until my son decided to order from here! Well, I don't know about Detroit style but I do know a deep rectangular pizza pan lined with Parmesan followed by a pressed in substantial crust was just fabulous! The crust was chewy and crispy and tender and tasty all at once, which takes real talent to create! We had a sausage pizza and a pepperoni pizza and one slice for me was totally filling. Any leftovers reheat beautifully owing to the quality ingredients which are substantial. The shop itself is a little drive by on the side of the road on the west side of Route 31in Algonquin so it's easy to miss, but hard to forget! I'd certainly suggest you try it! It was delicious and we will order this again. read more

Amazing Pizza! The owners are very friendly people who take special pride making your pizza. The restaurant has small sitting tables but he is expanding to more on the side. read more

Owner is salt of the earth and the pizza is out of this world good. Hard to find good detroit style around and this is as good as it get.

Review for the owners. Pizza is great and I think you're close to having something special and unique in this area that's not Uncle Jerry's. HOWEVER... you have got to increase the size of your pies. Also, $24 is pretty steep for what amounts to a personal pizza for a hungry guy. I'd happily pay $30-$40 for a pie twice the size. Nobody is feeding a family of 4 with the one size (small) pizzas that you have now. We're in the Midwest, size matters when it comes to food portions. Pretty please figure out a way to make these family sized. 16" or 18" square, 14" x 20" or larger rectangular pies for football parties. I understand and appreciate the use of fantastic ingredients and your staff was very kind. If the biggest complaint you have going for you is the fact that we can't get enough of your product and are demanding larger sizes/lower prices so we can eat more of it... I'd say you're doing really well. As soon as you add larger sizes and really hammer down your pricing to be a bit more competitive, I'll adjust my rating. read more

Outstanding pizza!!! Detroit style fire!!! Highly recommend to anyone near or around Algonquin area!!! read more

So excited to have this new business in Algonquin! We stopped in on Friday night and placed an order- the team there is super friendly and fun to talk to. It only took about 20 minutes for the pizza to cook. Their menu is limited right now, but only so that they can perfect their pizza and then add to what they offer. Sounds like a solid plan to me! We got the Wild Hog and the Veggie pizzas - both were delicious! The pizza is Detroit style, which I had never had but now I'm a fan. Yum! Go support this new local business and give them a try. What a great addition to food options in Algonquin! read more

Absolutely delicious!! Friendly staff and I'll definitely be a repeat customer! Very clean interior. Find this place/ order/ thank me afterwards read more

Very tasty pizza served piping hot. Good crust. Some reviewers complain about the smaller size, but one $20 pizza is plenty for two people, and with prices at restaurants skyrocketing, this is a decent value. They could improve the dine-in area by having napkins at the tables, and utensils at the main counter. Just a couple suggestions that would improve the experience. read more

Great Detroit style. Had a complicated order and they double checked to make sure of allergies. Everything was done perfectly and service was great. We will be going back for more! read more

If you haven't been to Pizza Pushers in Algonquin go there, it's the best kept secret in town. Wonderful food, great service and the owner couldn't be more personable. The Detroit Pizza is outstanding. read more

This is our second time ordering pizza from Pizza Pushers. We have tried three of the pizzas and they are great. Love the vodka sauce! We had just moved my dad and had no plates or forks and the owner was very helpful and even cooked our pizza a bit more to keep the edges crispy since he had to cut it for us. It is worth every penny. Yes they are small, but very filling. You only need a few pieces to get full! Plus I will take quality or quantity! read more
