In the past year and a half, I've fallen in love with Detroit-style pizza and been on the hunt to try every place SF, which is what lead me to 8 MilePi!
8 MilePI offers both Detroit-style and Sicilian pizza, but of course I had to go with the Detroit. I love bbq chicken pizzas, so that one immediately got my attention and placed my order for that. The bbq sauce was on the bitter side, but just wish it was a little sweeter and tangy because the bitterness of the sauce overpowered the rest of ingredients and was the prominent flavor. The crust fell short of expectations as well. It wasn't the crispy, cheesy edges that i've had with previous Detroit-style pizzas. The crust as a whole had more of the sicilian texture rather than the Detroit.
The pizza itself is huge! The regular size was $28, and I was full off 2 1/2 slices. One regular sized pizza would be good for 2-4 people.
The packaging can use some improvement. I ordered a regular size za' but it came delivered in their larger sized box. During the delivery, the pizza slid from side to side, smushing the pizza, which wasn't the end of the world, but seems like a simple fix with the right sized box. I didn't have access to my car at the time, which is why I opted for delivery. Delivery is something I don't typically do, but since it was less than 10 minutes from where I was staying, I figured the transit time would be chill. Pizza was still hot, so that's a win.
Overall, if you are looking to compare Detroit style pizzas in the area, I'd say it's still worth a try. Everyone's palate is different, so you'll never know if you like it until you try it for yourself! Next time around I think i'll stick to a more classic style and see how that goes, plus their jalapeno popper breadsticks looks delicious!
