Amar Pizza

This pizza was by far the best I've had in a long time! It was nice and hot. Naga Pizza was ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING! The price was great, the slices are huge! It was so good, we had it for lunch one day and dinner the following evening! Definitely will return!

I ordered two large specialty pizzas. They were only 12", which is medium by industry standard. One was a Meat Lover, and it didn't have bacon as advertised. The food tasted good, but considering their sizing, it's extremely over priced. Personally, I would not order again

The best pizza ever, I dont know how its not trending and swarmed with people, the Philly cheesesteak pizza is to die for, i cant put into words how good it tastes and the cheese pizza as well is so good!! the barbecue wings and the naga wings are amazing

We ordered Tandoori Chicken pizza and it was absolutely pathetic! So much food color in the pizza sauce and the tandoori chicken pieces! Chicken was not well marinated and the pizza was sweet! The Naga and Tandoori wings we ordered were even worse. The Naga wings had a bland brown sauce and the Tandoori wings had some random red chili sauce. For a place that touts itself as the home of the ghost pepper pizza, it was a shear disappointment! None of the food had any salt in it and this place is like a dark hole in the wall. The only reason I gave 1 star is for the bread and the regular deep dish pizza, which was decent. For the amount of money this place charges, the food is worthless.

Their pizza USED TO be really good. Now, their pizza is way to oily and does not taste good. The price does not equal the quality. Will not recommend this place anymore.

Ordered a medium Naga Pizza. Expected more toppings considering it’s $20.99 for a medium Naga pizza.Giving 3/5 factoring in amount of toppings on pizza and the spice level. Spice level is on the high end. Probably medium to hot spice. This is carry out only. No seating available.

Horrible Pizza. It's all red everywhere, tandoori pizza is sweet. I never had such pizza. Chicken is uncooked. A place to avoid totally.

Finally a pizza that makes my taste buds dance with joy !! I tried the vegetarian Naga pizza with eggplant topping -- awesome ! The sauce magical with a touch of spice and tangy.. the eggplant are fried are cut to pieces as topping.

Amar Pizza always seems to appear on the lists of the top pizzas to try out in Detroit. It's not very surprising either, as it's such a rarity to see these kind of fusion flavors in the area. It's been on my try list for years and I finally got a chance to visit the Troy location this past weekend. I ordered over the phone and was quoted around a 25 minute wait time, which makes sense for a Detroit-style pizza with minimal wait. The shop itself is a purely takeout place, with only an order window and two chairs to wait for the pizza. We went with the highly recommend Naga Pizza and started to dig in in the car while it was still fresh. Naga Pizza, Large, Square Deep Dish ($23.99) - This is an 8-square Detroit-style pizza cut into 12 squares (3x4). I found it not too spicy at the start but as I ate more, it got progressively more and more spicy. I don't eat too much South Asian food, but the combination of spices and the cheese kind of reminded me of a spicy paneer makhani, with a rich cheesiness, combination of different spice flavors, and a lighter note from the red onions and cilantro on top. The chicken breast chunks are tender and provided some respite from the spicy flavor. Overall the flavors work very well together in a pizza format. While the flavors are good, unfortunately this particular pizza is not a good Detroit-style pizza. The crust is super wan here, with barely a hint of browning or caramelization and no texture other than chewy dough, with a slight undercooked dough flavor. The dough itself seems to be typical dense and chewy pizza dough instead of the more airy and lighter focacia-like dough that is emblematic of a Detroit-style pizza. There's no cheese on the edges to decorate the crust and give an additional crunch or provide the requisite oil to help grease the crust and fry it as it bakes. (3/5) When I got home, I lightly heated up several slices in a pan with oil, which improved the crust to a crisp and ameliorated the doughy flavor. The problem is if I'm getting takeout, I shouldn't need to do any additional cooking to fix the food! Bathrooms - Amar Pizza is takeout only and there are no customer accessible restrooms. I came in with very high expectations of getting a great fusion Detroit-style pizza. While I did get an inventive and tasty pizza, I did not get a good Detroit-style pizza. The crust was undercooked and just plain not good. If I had to order another pizza from here, I would try their standard crust only.

The Square pizza was good. But the Deep Dish wasn't cooked all the way. I'm guessing the dough needed time to thaw.

After reading about Amar pizza in the NYT, I had to try it! We got the naga, tandoori and dry fish pizzas. They can do a half and half if you call, but there is not an option in that for online ordering FYI. We got them Detroit style and they were super flavorful, fun pizzas! The naga sauce had a nice heat and went really well with the fresh cilantro and other toppings. The dried fish pizza was good too, but if you don't like anchovies, I would skip it. We also got a side of naga wings, which were delicious. We tried a side order of the ghost sauce to see if we could handle it. Hot, but doable if you like heat. Make sure you check Amar out!

I've been searching far and wide for halal Detroit style pizza and everyone told me Amar Pizza does it best! I went to the Troy location with my husband and it was small and cute, they made everything fresh and brought it to our car so graciously, what great service We started with an Amar hot dog which had a nice kick to it and then got a small half Philly Cheese steak half Naga pizza (chicken based) and my tastebuds were e l e v a t e d. I can confidently say this was the best Detroit style pizza I've ever had, 10/10 must get!!

Delicious pizza and very friendly staff. Pizza was ready right when they said it would be.

This may be the best pizza! I've recently moved to the area and have tried numerous pizza places, looking for the one that I can call "my spot." We tried Amar last night, and I loved it! My issue with many pizza places is that they load the sauce on. If you're not a fan of a ton of pizza sauce, this place is for you! I ordered a small deluxe, medium pepperoni, and the bread sticks. I didn't try the deluxe, but my husband said it was pretty good. The pepperoni was perfect, and don't even get me started on the breadsticks, they're drool worthy.

Highly recommend, very good pizza! Spice was awesome, will be ordering again! Staff was awesome!

Looooooove this place! I got a large half naga/half ghost pizza and it was so good! Both are spicy, but the ghost is definitely spicier! The restaurant is carry-out only. There are also some cool hot dog variations on the menu but when I went they were out of buns and we weren't able to order any.

Hole in the wall superb pizza. Made fresh to order with high quality ingredients and crunch tasty crust. The sprinkle a magical dust on the pizza and the many sauces the offer to dip are also excellent. Basic courteous service and ambiance with great pizza.

I love Amar's pizza because it is unique. They have both deep dish and thin crust. I have had the Ghost pizza which is spicy. I had this on the thin crust. I had the Detroiter pizza as a deep dish. The Detroiter is representative of a Coney Island dogs with hotdogs, chili, onions melted cheese and jalepenos. Both were delicious. You must visit the menu and see what other unusual pizzas they have!

Never get tired of this place. My favorite deep dish is the naga pizza full of flavor. Also love naga hot dog! The specialty pizzas are a bit pricey but totally worth it.

Ghost pizza has amazing flavor but the spinach feta comes close! With Ghost and ranch on the side of course. Might be my fav Detroit style pizza around town...

Dude that works here/owns the place is rude, continuously falsely flags bad reviews of him as being from former employees (per the nasty email from yelp trying to claim I had a "business relationship" with this rundown place). I see a bunch of reviews missing besides my own. Dude, I would never work in your dirty little shop even if I were desperate for a job. Twice I've been here and dealt with the same odd/rude dude. Place is a haphazard mess and I have no idea how it passes safety inspection. Orders were not ready both times I came here, and the last time he seemed confused and didn't make the order at all. If you're going to have online ordering then learn how to use technology.

Heck of a pizza selection! If you live in Troy, definitely check it out--could be your new pizza place! I recently followed them on instagram and had to give it a try. We went for the Southwestern pizza. They do not skimp on the toppings which are fresh and for this pizza, I loved the variety from beef, jalapenos, tomatoes, onion and fresh cilantro. Friends were raving about the crust as well! We ordered through third party delivery and we were happy with our service! We already know the next specialty pizza we will be trying!

The food here is interesting and honestly very good. The customer service, not so much. Dude behind the counter was kind of rude for really no reason.

this place is amazing. I love the pepperoni pizza . I never had to wait too long for my food and my order was always right

I ordered this sometime last summer and forgot to post a review. I will keep it short; my experience was pretty terrible. Read on for more details. I am a big pizza fan (some would say an aficionado) and was excited to try their twist on the beloved food. Before going all out, though, I decided to try a deep dish meat lovers first to test the waters. I ordered around 4pm and it took the food about 1 hour 10 minutes to arrive. I did order through GrubHub, though, so this may not have been their fault. The pizza itself was a disaster. It was incredibly undercooked, to the point where the crust was gooey, and not crunchy. The cheese was barely melted, and did not have the golden brown bubbles you usually see with deep dish pizza. Toppings were ok I guess, but it was hard to enjoy them with the chewy crust. The sauce was the one positive; it was definitely unique, and had a slightly spicy/savory touch that I had not experienced before. I'll literally eat just about any pizza and be satisfied; even when it's not great, it's still "pizza". I ate two pieces of this and threw the rest out because it was so bad. That's an extremely rare occurrence for me. The raccoon that patrols my yard must not have liked it, either, because it only ate one piece after knocking my garbage can over to get to it. I worked at a pizza company for 7 years, so I am very familiar with the process, ingredients, and quality control needed to make a great pie. Amar pizza needs to work on their fundamentals and consistency before they start innovating this food genre.

Great signature pizza!! Never thought I would love a spicy pizza as much as I did but now I'm a fan haha A bit pricey but completely worth it!

The pizza here is amazing! We ordered the meat lovers which I hadn't had in years unless I drive across town for it. Upon walking in, it's a very small space and set-up for just grabbing food and go. The toppings were fresh and very flavorful all halal, the crust was crispy on the outside and just right in the middle. They have two flavored crust options - garlic and a spicy one, we chose garlic and it was tasty. During the pandemic, I would recommend one person at a time due to the super small space that would not provide the 6 feet social distancing rules. While waiting for your order you stare at nothing but pizza boxes from every angle which made me began to think... I could not see who was making my pizza or the cleanliness. Also the guy that rang me up and took my money went straight back to the "food prep area" and I didn't hear any running water. Looked to be two younger men running the place. If you can get over not knowing what's going on behind the massive build of pizza boxes and the guy ringing at register, then going back to the food area, give this place a shot.

Love the concept of fusing Bangladeshi food and Detroit-style pizza! The Naga Pepper pizza is a must-have, and I'd recommend a mango lassi to go with it.

This small place provides no seating to dine in, but does offer a large parking lot to kick it back and relax with friends. We ordered a large amount of food that follows: Wings: Were not spicy, but did taste good. Pizza: Overpriced and a bit small, but very tasteful. I recommend ordering the detroiter, philly steak, and or the Naga. Burger: Average, nothing special here. Overall: Would order pizza here again, and hope they establish fairer prices for their relatively small portions. Food was good and customer service was friendly.

The Naga Pizza was amazing, the flavor and spice was a perfect!! Please go and check them out if you can!!

I didn't hear about this place until last week when I ate at La Marsa next door. It looks like a typical pizza takeout spot, but they've thrown in some South Asian character into their menu, featuring dishes like Naga Pizza, Tandoori Pizza, and more. They don't overpromote that aspect of the business, which I can appreciate. Not a fan of some of the new Indian pizza spots that just throw random paneer and curry on cheese and call it fusion food. We ordered for delivery tonight. Called in, but they also take orders on their website, Uber Eats, Door Dash, and Grubhub. Props to them for a good online presence. We ordered the thin Veggie Pizza, thin Naga Pizza w/o chicken, and breadsticks. After placing the order, they called back and asked if I wanted anything else on the Naga, b/c without chicken there's not much else as it's not as saucy. We appreciated the great customer service there. Arrived in 40 minutes. Naga Pizza was absolutely delicious. It's got a great curry-like sauce with cheese, onions, and chicken. We subbed chicken with jalapeño and mushroom and we loved it. The veggie pizza was also delightful - it had breaded eggplant on it! The breadsticks were decent too, just not as soft as I'd hoped. The biggest thing I noticed is how fresh the veggies were - you can tell they were handcut. The one downside was that it all came out to $40 without tip. I would say it was worth it though. For veggie lovers, I'd go here any day over Jet's or Domino's. Supposedly it's been in business in Hamtramck for years, and they just opened up in Troy. Smart move on their part. I see them becoming a big thing in the area. Give them a try if you're a pizza lover but need a break from the other chains nearby.

Definitely a place I'm going to come back. Extremely nice and friendly staff. We came in and the cashier was super polite and helpful when we took a while on deciding what flavor we want. They have a huge variety of flavors that are all really good!! We ordered a medium detroiter pizza and they upgraded it to a large and gave us a box of free wings on the house! The detroiter has great flavor and tasted like a better version of tangy bbq from four brothers pizza. The "ghost" wings had just the right of amount of kick to them for me and we're excellent. The only complaint I have is that there is no sitting area. However, as it is pizza, you can eat it quite anywhere which isn't much of a problem to me. Otherwise any other kind of restaurant would lose a lot more points in my review. --Overall-- Helpfulness: 5/5 Cleanliness (shop): 4.4/5 Pizza: 4.6/5 Variety (flavors): 4.5/5 Sitting area: N/A Speed: 4.4/5 Total: 4.58/5

Love the naga pizza. Ghost pizza and tandoori pizza are great too. Spicy but tasty. Best part is it's halal!

We really like this place, it's not your typical Friday night pizza. But it makes my family happy every time. My son's love the ghost and gyro pizzas. Tonight we tried the seafood pizza and I really liked that as well. We usually get the tandoori pizza, my daughter and I love it.

Ordered ghost biryani and halal pepperoni pizza. It was amazing!! Biryani was very delicious and flavorful.

Very good pizza. I like that it's different from what you can get everywhere else. We tried their thin crust and their square pizza and both were really greats crusts. Definitely good to try!!

Visiting from Silicon Valley, home of Indian pizzas, I was pretty surprised to see something similar here, but with a Detroit/Bengali spin. It's absolutely spot on with fresh ingredients and unique flavors. I've tried eight of their specialties and each one is absolutely better than any other pizza I've had in Metro Detroit (highly recommend the Cajun seasoned ones). I'd also recommend getting thinner crusts here to really enjoy the flavor, I wasn't disappointed in the thicker one, I just don't really like that much dough. Haven't tried the non-pizza items, guess it's time for another trip?

This place is average to below average. The flavors are on point but the pizza is always so damn dry. Not sure if they are just skimping on toppings/sauce or this particular location sucks but I can't eat this dry pizza. I gave it two tries and ordered two different crusts but still dry as bone.

put some damn chicken in the chicken biryani. I ordered a chicken biryani and looked through the whole plate and found a total of 2 very small pieces of chicken. Nobody wants to eat rice and spices. never ordering from here again

I ordered a chicken biryani from here and I looked through the whole plate and found 2 small pieces of chicken. This has happened multiple times. However their pizza is okay.

I really like their pizza. I got a square and thin crust and was more than satisfied with it. Both pizzas were perfectly cooked. Very friendly staff. Think this will now be my go to place for a pizza

wow i went to naders house and tried them for the first time and it was so good, so much better than other pizzas

Friendly staff and fast service coupled with delicious pizzas. You can't go wrong here. We had a half naga and half chicken tandoori. The pizza crust is one of the best I have ever had. It's perfectly crispy on the outside while being soft and chewy on the inside. Will be returning to try more flavors.

This is my spot for desi pizza. The flavors are so rich and tastes so good. I would recommend if you like lots of flavor in your food.

Desi pizza place, with bunch of spicy options like ghost pepper pizza, naga pizza with variety of pizza base including Detroit style deep dish square pizzas. The Naga pizza with thin crust is my go to option. They also serve biryani & wings, although I'm yet to try those.

We live in Rochester and we would drive all to Hamtramak to get it. I am SOOO excited to have an Amar Pizza up here! It is amazing! Please support!

The ghost pizza is delicious and the tandoori pizza is addicting. The closest Amar Pizza is 12+ hours away, but a stop at Amar's is priority whenever I am in the Detroit area. I have even convinced family to bring pizzas with them when they travel this way. I would love to see Amar Pizza on a larger scale. Best. Pizza. Ever.

There are so many things I want to try....so far the deep dish, bbq wings and cheese bread are all excellent. I am very excited to try the other options. Great service! Will definitely be going back!

I ordered through door dash, to my pleasant surprise the food I ordered (biryani, and a sub) was absolutely amazing.Fresh, neatly wrapped and packaged, everything I asked for was there. Food was tasty! I will definitely be returning and re-ordering! Menu is great!!!

This place is amazing. Opened a new location in Troy, I thought I'd check it out. I got the naga chicken pizza deep dish square and the bbq chicken deep dish square as well. Both were delicious. The naga sauce give the pizza a good spicy kick and the crust/dough is soft and pastry like. U can't go wrong with any of their offerings. Their thin crust is very good as well if your appetite is more in the mood for a snack. Next time I'll get the ghost pepper pizza a see what the hype is about

The spice pizza is incredible, one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Highly recommend this place, I first tried the Hamtramck location a couple years ago when I was working nearby. Looking forward to trying some of the other items, so far I've only tried the Tandoori and Spice pizzas.

I've tried the Amar Pizza in Hamtramck multiple times, so when I found out they opened up in Troy I wanted to check it out. I ordered a large pizza with half naga and half chicken bbq. I also ordered 6 piece wings. The chicken on the pizza had a chewy texture and the pizza tasted flavorless. The wings also smelt like raw chicken. Also note, their pizza isn't cheap either. I was extremely disappointed and will not be ordering from here again.

Average pie. Ordered an item that they no longer serve, paid for it, and no action was taken.

Called in an order and was told 30 min. Turned out to be an hour. When I got the pizza it was undercooked and the wings were terrible with no sauce. Will not be back.

Excellent quality and great to see them in the Troy area now also. Best wishes on continued success. Highly recommend the Naga Pizza if you can handle the slight kick of spice but anything ordered here is good. Convenience by means of GrubHub, Door Dash and Uber Eats as well.
