"Despite bringing Detroit-style pizza back nationwide for the second time this year, there are no Pizza Huts in the city of Detroit: the national chain closed its last pizzerias in the city in 2020 and shuttered several suburban dine-in locations during the pandemic — Farmington shut its last sit-down dining room in spring 2020, the Westland dine-in closed in June 2020, and the Canton location shuttered in March 2019 and moved to a carryout on Ford Road — though carryout-only Pizza Huts remain in Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, Ferndale, Warren, Southfield and other suburbs. Pizza Hut says Detroit-style was such a hit that metro Detroit demand for its square pizza was two to three times the national average and that the launch helped give the Texas-based company its best quarterly sales in a decade; Pizza Hut general manager David Graves said, "Detroit-style was a hit from the moment it launched. Once it sold out, our customers have been asking for it back. This is actually the fastest we’ve brought back a pizza in over 10 years." - Monica Williams
