Green Lantern Pizza

So, the pizza, the salad, the pizza bowls...all delicious. But, COME ON MAN. The size of the salad vs Salad dressing is insane. And if you want another one, you have to pay extra. Which I get paying extra for extra dressing, but only when it's proportional. Food taste is 5 ⭐s. But the scam on the salad dressing brought my rating down.

Such an enjoyable dinner. Ordered a large pizza with half pepperoni and half mushroom, the garden salad, and BBQ wings with ranch. Everything was delicious. The garden salad was a huge portion and everything tasted fresh. I really love their wings, too. The mushrooms are canned and not fresh, but they were still fine. The person taking the order is always so friendly. Great place! Would definitely come back here!

Went here for about three hours on my first visit to Detroit with my fiancé. She grew up on this place. I have traveled the world and believe this is the best pizza I have ever had. Also, their sandwiches are incredible Ashleigh the bartender was so cool and fun to interact with as were the rest of the patrons that were there. Can’t wait to visit again. Will be a “must” meal next time I am in Detroit.

I Missed these Pizza places. Everyone knows somebody, regulars say hi and new people, like me, come in and enjoy the positive energy. Pizza was good, salad!! Thumbs. This will be on our monthly food outting..thank you staff

In town for work and finally checked out the legendary Green Lantern Pizza—hands down the best Detroit-style pizza I’ve ever had! That crust and crunch? Absolutely fire. The sauce, cheese, and topping ratio was spot on. We shared a massive Greek salad (easily enough for two) and tried the Everything and Chicken Sicilian pizzas—both incredible. Our waitress was super friendly and gave us awesome recs. Already counting down the days until I can go back. Green Lantern, please come to Austin, Texas!

My group came here on a Friday night, it was packed inside and the take out line was practically out the door! Make sure to plan for extra time and be patient with the staff on Friday/Saturday nights so you aren't dissatisfied with the speed of service. The atmosphere can be pretty loud but I didn't mind, the pizza was great!

We stopped in after an outing at Great lakes crossing. We called ahead. Because in the past this place was always on a wait. The phone call was kinda weird. Not sure if it was understood what I was asking. But. We took the chance and headed in. We arrived and there was plenty of parking. Walked in and sat right down. The place is SMALL and tables are really jammed in. Almost to many to be honest. The dark / black decor is dark bar type atmosphere. One thing I immediately noticed was the floors. Very " trafficked " this night. Once sat we were greeted by our waitress. No small talk here. Straight and to the point. Almost comes off cold and can't be bothered. Ordered salads. Large garden. ( Nice sized salad. All fresh. Some of the best little tomatoes I have had in a while ). Ordered small cheese bread. Looked amazing, hot and appetizing. HOWEVER - had a metallic taste to it. The pan it was baked on. If it wasn't for the ranch. This would be a no go for sure. Maybe it's time to change pans. Ordered the Ruben sandwich - piled high and the vinegar sugar Cole slaw complimented it very well. Ordered a medium pizza with pepperoni and extra sauce. Pizza was very hot and very good. However $15 for a medium. Maybe a tad to much for the size received. Bar b que chicken square pizza was said to be very good. Better then jets and priced better as well. Beverages were weak. I noticed both the ginger ale and the mountain dew were weak tasting. Three stars because the service was not very friendly. The cheese bread had a metal pan taste and the pizza price was a tad high for the size. All be it very good. I recommended this place to our group. We overall enjoyed it. I think we will search next time for other options when we do a small mall trip. Thank you guys !

This is by far my favorite pizza place! Not only is Green Lantern my favorite pizza company, but this is BY FAR the best Green Lantern location. I have never had a bad experience with Green Lantern and never received food from this location that didn’t more than exceed my expectations. My go to is a round double pepperoni pizza with a toasted sub. Their subs are so good too; they have coleslaw on them which you would think wouldn’t work on a sub but they’re absolutely delicious. They even give you a pickle and a couple peppers with the sub. I get take out a lot but I love to dine in here once in a while. The atmosphere is great, pretty chill and relaxing. You even get free popcorn to snack on while you wait for your food and sip on a nice beer, a yummy cocktail, or even a good old glass of pop. They have the very best pepperonis ever!!! They get all toasty and crispy, they’re so good!!! Green Lantern truly is the king of pepperoni!!! To Green Lantern: You guys are the best! Keep doing what you’re doing!!!

Highly recommend this place. We love their pizza and salads. My husband grew up on their Italian subs and last week we were there and dined in and he ordered a sub to go. Awesome pepperoni pizza. Need a location in Lapeer! Please

We accidentally orders from this location and didn't realize it until we were stuck with it. How annoying. It's been about 4 years (?) since we've been to this location and tonight reminded us why. A small pizza and a sub. SO SIMPLE. The pizza was fine. The sub...burned and soaking wet. This isn't the first time. This isn't the second time. It will definitely be the last time. What trash.

The food is always awesome!! The staff are great. My ONLY complaint about the Madison Heights location is that it is NOT wheelchair accessible. I wanted to share my love for the place with my dad who is a double amputee in a wheelchair. There was a ramp at the front door, but he was basically forced to sit at the table right in front of the door since the tables and booths where too close for him to wheel between them. When he had to use the bathroom, which are by the back door, he could not fit his wheelchair back there, so he had to go out the front door to the back door, which has a slight step up. If I was not there to help him, he would not have been able to get in that door at all. He was hit by the bathroom door multiple times as he tried to relieve himself and had to, once again, go outside to wheel around the building to get back to the front door to get to our table!

Excellent food and service. Some of the best Pizza in the metro area. Admittedly, I'm normally a Shield's eater, but as it was late and Shield's was closed my mom and I came here. We had a very pleasant experience and didn't have to wait long to be seated and served. We started with the Parm Garlic wings which were delicious. Their sauce is a bit unique but good nonetheless. For the main, we got a large supreme deep dish(they call it a name, but I forgot what it is) and it was amazing. It was so good I didn't even get to take a picture of it because of how fast we ate it. It had everything on the menu seemingly on it, fresh, crunchy, just how I like it. Ingredients tasted fresh and the pizza was clearly made with love and passion. I also love that they do military discounts which saved us an additional 20 percent. Insane value at this place. 2 people eating for under 30 bucks these days is rare. We will be back.

This is still our favorite Green Lantern. We changed it up and got a Barbque chicken pizza. This is pretty darn good as is. The bbq sauce, onions, and chicken in perfect balance. This one is in our rotation.

Just came back to my original home last month, from California, to watch baseball. Of course we went to Green Lantern. Once again nothing but the best was served. The whiskey is a bit of short pour but hey, we don't go there for whiskey per se. Keep up the good work and as we come back every year for baseball you shall see us.

Friendly service with a casual environment. The prices were fairly reasonable and the pizza was very good! Nice, crispy, airy crust with high quality toppings. I feel like if there was a little more sauce and the components were seasoned a bit more it could have taken the pizza to the next level!

A best place for carry out pizza some of the best I ever had. You can't go wrong deep dish around but the restaurant itself needs a lot of help. Very cramped inside. No room for larger parties. Just a lot of things you expect at a pizza restaurant they're not but you bring it home and family goes crazy.

Food here is always great. They're a local neighborhood favorite for a reason. Everything is fairly priced and the quality of the pizza toppings is fantastic. We ordered a custom pizza and some wings to share and I enjoyed all of it. They have a happy hour M-F from 8pm to close that offers a few apps for $6 and some drink specials. Our waitress seemed to be a little disgruntled and rushed but I could also see she was basically the only one serving and probably was a little in the weeds. I've been a server before and tend to be a bit more critical of service but I'm a little more lenient nowadays because everyone is short staffed. I guess I'm the type that no matter how swamped I am I still want to come across friendly and want my clients to enjoy themselves and feel like they're welcomed instead of feeling like a nuisance. But if you're craving some good pizza and just want that local watering hole/neighborhood bar feel - check out green lantern!

Ordered a small pizza for takeout. It was the perfect size for one person and had delicious pepperoni on top!

I've been going here since I was a kid. The bar is small and can get super crammed. They really need to do some updating inside so that it's a more comfortable dining experience. Pizza is always so freaking good. They have the pepperoni that curl when cooked and hold grease. Be sure to blot do you don't get heartburn so bad. Love their sauce because it's thicker. Their cheese bread is the best cheese bread in Metro Detroit! So much cheese and butter! At least I assume it's butter. Their Italian subs are robbed with a sweeter slaw, ham, cheese, and salami, then toasted. Again, amazing! Stop in during Thursday night trivia for extra great deals!

Last night we Ordered from the new Livonia location. A medium pizza & found large pieces of undercooked chicken on it. We also ordered plain wings & received the tiniest pieces of chicken I have ever seen. Definitely not worth the price of $34!!

My goto carry out for pizza, bread ,subs, and salads are just some great things served. You can also buy dough, pepperoni's, sauses of your choice, I love the double meat and cheese footlong subs! Make sure to order the family pizza deal for best price. Great place and the orders are ready fast!!!

Hands down this crew, this store pretty much anything that has ever been ordered had been great. Even if it's not and it's a simple mistake they correct it and get your order corrected quickly. The work crew is always awesome, friendly, and just a good vibe from the moment you step thru the door.

After multiple visits to Green Lantern Pizza in Livonia, I feel compelled to voice my deep dissatisfaction with their service and overall management. Each visit has been a study in frustration, with promised 25-minute wait times ballooning to over an hour without fail. It's not just an occasional delay, but a persistent issue that cuts to the core of their service model. The lack of staff training is startlingly evident. Attempting to place a simple phone order becomes a Herculean task, as even a basic request for a pizza with two different halves seems beyond their capabilities. This fundamental gap in understanding their own menu and ordering system is baffling and unacceptable. At the heart of these issues seems to be the current owner, who claims a seven-year association with the family business. Yet, this tenure seems to have done little to foster an understanding of effective restaurant management or customer service principles. The operational chaos and disregard for customer satisfaction under his watch indicate a dire need for a leadership overhaul or at least a serious reevaluation of management practices. My most recent visit was the final straw. Witnessing a crowd of 30 equally frustrated customers waiting for their orders underscored the severe staffing and organizational failures at play. The situation was not just inconvenient but a clear indicator of a business floundering in mismanagement. To summarize, Green Lantern Pizza is an exemplar of how not to run a restaurant. The consistent inefficiency, untrained staff, and abysmal management are not minor issues but indicative of a fundamental failure in basic customer service and operational competence. The current owner, despite his lengthy association with the business, appears entirely out of his depth. This establishment has become less a pizza restaurant and more a testament to managerial ineptitude. If you're considering a meal here, be prepared for a long wait and a cascade of service failures. Until there's a comprehensive operational overhaul or a complete shutdown, I strongly advise avoiding Green Lantern Pizza. It's not just a disappointment; it's a total trainwreck. Avoid at all costs!!!

We there on a Saturday night and it was crowded as you would expect. I love this time of year, Christmas, everyone was in a festive mood. We usually order their round pizza but opted for a square this time, not disappointed.,It was great. You can't go wrong at the original Green Lantern! Merry Christmas and Peace

Fast service with delicious food. Pizza crust is light and very good and is better than other pizza places that are heavy

Thanks to you, Sadie Q. After Easter I will start getting the subs again on a Friday.

I use to work as a ward manager next store at Madison Veterinary back in the day and Green Lantern was a go-to for breaks. Despite the pizza being the star (and believe me it's AMAZING pizza), you'll be surprised the italian sub holds up well and paired with a small salad made for a great lunch. Otherwise it's your classic dive-ish pizza bar complete with cozy booths. The prices are fair and beer is cold, so if in the mood for pizza then you can't go wrong.

I've been getting green lantern pizza all my life at 12 mile and John R and I'm 68! It;s the best around bar none. I love to go in and have a couple of there house ales while waiting for my carryout, even thought it pumps up my bill quite abit. I have converted my husband also, we used to get pizza from several different places, but the quality has gone down over the years. So now he goes and gets green lantern also, even if the price is higher. you get what you pay for.

One of my hands down favorite takeout pizza places around! The pizza is perfectly cooked with the most generous amount of cheese melted on top cooked to profrction (now who doesn't like cheese?)!!! Take out is simple, walk-in and walk up to the take window and back out the backdoor you go! They also have an amazing loyalty program so if you aren't signed up you should be! Parking is a little tricky if you have a bigger vehicle but you can make it work! Also this review is solely based of takeout, I have never dined in this actual location!

The pizza was one of my favorites of all time, and sauce is amazing! Green Lantern is well worth a trip!

We go often to this location and end up moving to the bar area because more than once at least three times we dealt with a very rude waitress. I've never had an issue here until then. The waitress was Jennifer. The food was great. The environment was perfect. Bartender great. But that waitress has no business working in a restaurant. She not only treated me bad but my group of friends. Fire her!!!! Ashley and Rachel and Shelby are great.

Pizza's great and great tasting fresh ingredients service on time can you say nothing bad about this place?

Best pizza and subs the Cole slaw is amazing I highly recommend green lantern as an all time favorite

I'm never disappointed with the GLP pizza. I've had it many times. Also a fan of the antipasto salad. It would be better to use something other than iceberg lettuce, but there is always plenty of meat and cheese.

Decided to try this place out after many friends recommended it. Ordered a large pepperoni pizza. The pizza was saucy and cheesy the way I like it. Perfectly cooked and flavorful. The highlight was the friendly service, we felt very welcomed and can't wait to return.

This place was absolutely delicious! I've been wanting to try it for awhile as I've heard a lot of people raving about this gem. We ordered the lantern bread and John's Pizza. The pizza was very flavorful and full of toppings. I wish they used a higher quality mushroom tho - these are for sure dumped out of a can and we ended up taking quite a few off bc they had a weird texture. Other than that I loved every bite so next time I'd just skip the mushrooms. We also tried the lantern bread which was cheesy and gooey. I wish it was cooked a bit longer for more of a crunch but still absolutely tasty. We tried it with both the ranch and marinara. I loved the marinara sauce and the ranch had that restaurant-style to it so it was a win in my book! Will definitely be back again!

I worked in Warren for many years and this place was always on our list of places to go if we had time for a longer lunch. It's been over a decade since I had been there, but when my daughter was doing some shopping in the area and we were in the mood for pizza, we had her pick some up on her way home. We had to start with the classic - a simple pepperoni pizza. I remembered that Green Lantern's pepperoni was always a bit unique - slightly well done so the edges curl up to capture that extra flavor...and it lived up to my memory of it...delicious! For something new, we tried the Chicken Siciliano - the flavor was outstanding! We also had the Lantern Bread, with a side of garlic butter...yum! It's always great to see when a legendary place lives up to your memory of it!

Great spot! Went here with some work colleagues and we weren't disappointed. We got 2 pizzas - meat lovers and bbq and an antipasto salad to share. The waitress was great and the food was to die for, as always. Highly recommend this spot. Looking to come back to try their subs/grinders - boy they look great! Ps - great iced tea!

Very good pizza. Would give Dennis a raise dude goes over and beyond. If they is a mistakes he easily corrects it before it's an issue.

Really hate giving a bad review for this place. Met with few friends for lunch. Was pizza-d out. Tried a seasonal chili boat - which I have had years ago. Pretty much disappointing. Chili - really bland - like zero taste. Bread bowl it came in - could barely cut it - even with a steak knife. .still can't decide if service was good or not - hard read on waitress- kind of stand-off ish - but ok. Of course 1 bad time here will not stop me from coming back !

I've been to this Green Lantern location a few times and it's a hit or miss with the food. This last time I told the waitress who btw is not friendly until it's time to pay the check, please ask them for a little extra sauce and baked a little longer. Please don't burn it. Well the pizza came and some of the top was burnt as was our friends pizza. She put double sauce in the computer so there was too much sauce on it. How hard was it to go and tell the person making the pizza just add a little extra, bake a little longer and don't burn it? I never have this problem at the 15 and Utica one. The same waitress is there all the time. I doubt we'll be going to that location anymore.

Love the pizza here! We lived in Madison Heights many years ago and used to order their pizza fairly often. We stopped back today and the pizza did not disappoint. It was just as good as we remembered. We shared a garden salad, chicken Siciliano pizza and a Tommy's Super Special pizza. The crust is delicious and fresh. My daughter loved the tomato sauce and all of the vegetables and meats were excellent. Our server was swamped as they were short-staffed but she was friendly and helpful. We will return when we're in the area again.

We are lifelong customers of Green Lantern in my family. The Octopie is my favorite with its perfect crispy corners on each Detroit style slice. I highly recommend them.

Saw on PBS program & tried it. Facility was clean & service attentive. Enough menu variety & pizza of course! Food was OK.

Outstanding place to bring friends or family. The more the merrier. Intimate yet you can jam 108 folks in here. A legend in metro Detroit. The pizza is the main event here. Many will tell you it's the best in all of southeast Michigan. I concur. I personally dislike the pepperoni and insist it stay off my pie. Everything else is great. Tonight we discovered their fabulous wings; Boneless or traditional, with a variety of flavours. Mrs. E went crazy over the Honey Bbq and I devoured the General Yao's and the Bbq wings. Price wise it's definitely a bargain and the waitstaff is fast and efficient. Keeping the drinks full and checking on us, often. This is technically a full bar with a pizza option. A win-win. The best part is you can bring the whole family (even the young-ins). We watched some playoff football then played a few games of Keno. Can't wait until our next visit. 1/20

I don't know if they got new employees or did a training or what, but the new employees working take out are absolutely the friendliest folks ever. I'm very impressed.

Green Lantern pizza is the BEST!!! My boyfriend and I stop in here every time we're back in Michigan. We always order the Italian sub, pepperoni pizza and the chicken Sicilian pizza. The Italian sub is toasty, the meats are delicious, and the coleslaw that they top the sub with is unbelievable! It really makes the sandwich. I want the recipe, lol!! The pepperoni on the pizza "cups" when it's cooked, and you get these amazing, crunchy, spicy bites of deliciousness when you bite into a slice. It's a must have!! The chicken Sicilian pizza has a wonderful blend of toppings that work very well together. The chicken, tomatoes, feta cheese, red onions and banana peppers compliment the chewy, oven baked crust of the pie. We love everything here!

Love ordering pizza here and taking it home! We have also eaten in the restaurant and gotten great service but it is crowded.

Always delicious. Cheese is tasty. The crust has a hint of sweetness. The bread should be asked for well done, better that way. The ranch is the best ranch in town.

My family has been going to green lantern for decades. I went there 4/3 /23 and order subs I was very disappointed . The size has gone down in size wasn't hardly any slaw. They gave us 2 peppers and 1 pickle spear. I've always loved the food it will be a long time before I come back.

I was introduced to this pizza by a local, and yasss the pizza definitely didn't disappoint. I was expecting this place to be like a takeout pizza place but oh no, once I walked into the restaurant, I felt like I just stepped into a sports bar. There was a designated section for carry out, and there I went. We got a classic pepperoni pizza, large sized (8 slices), and it was about $20, which wasn't bad. The pizza though was amazing. They used the quality pepperoni so they curled up into cups when baked and in each cup you'd find this delicious flavorful pepperoni grease, yum!!! And on the perimeter of each pepperoni cups you'd see this beautiful circular char, and the pepperoni was bomb! The pizza itself was pretty amazing: the dough definitely tasted freshly made and the cheese was thick, creamy but had a nice subtle nice flavor. Overall it was pretty spectacular!

I'm not a huge fan of the pizza but my husband absolutely loved it..................... That being said, I would give it another go and maybe try something different.

Best pizza as far as you can drive in one day. It's edge to edge pizza, not the six inches of dough before you hit the pepperoni that you find in most Detroit area pizzerias. Wait staff is superb. Quick, attentive and usually jolly as a plus. I gave Green Lantern (on John R) 4 stars instead of 5 because I find the loud speaker bingo, or whatever it is on a couple of nights, annoying. Without that it would be 5 stars baby.

Went for a pizza, waited 30 minutes after ordering and asked the status. Waitress said they were backed up and "it was in the oven" 30 minutes later asked again "it's coming" I cancelled and paid for my wife's dinner (that she had finished eating the first 30 minutes and waiting for my meal) hers was a half sub and small salad. Kinda figured that it would have been discounted or even comped. Be a while before we go back there

We usually order for take home and have never been disappointed. The Detroit pepperoni is a fav of the teenage boy at our house and is always gone before the night is over. The chicken Tuscan pizza is amazing and such a nice change from the traditional red pizza gravy. The order is always ready and if we walk in and order to go we stop at the bar for a toddy while we wait. Great pizza and awesome staff!!!

When I visit my son and family I always make sure to order their food! It is amazing.

Tonight was my first time eating at Green Lantern. I have been living in the Royal Oak area since the mid-'90s. People have. Raved about this place never went. I told me the other day said he wanted to try it, and I was like I am down. We pull up, and the parking lot is packed we finally find and spot and go in. This place is packed, and the host told us it was about a 20 to 25-minute wait. So while we were waiting, a couple of spots opened up at the bar, so we saddled up to the bar and met the fantastic Ashley. I ordered a medium pizza with pepperoni, ground beef, and tomato. My buddy ordered a medium round pizza with pepperoni and mushroom. The food came. I have to admit I was a little worried that it been so hyped up I was concerned about being disappointed. This was not the case. The pizza was fantastic. I am an idiot for not coming here sooner. I am going to be coming back.

Great place. This place is always busy (I was there in a Sunday night and it was full) but they get you in and out. They also have a busy carry out window if you want to go home. Their sauce and crust is amazing but they are known for their fresh cut pepperoni which is fantastic. I can't wait to go to their new location in Berkley (coming 2019). Give it a try - it's pretty amazing!
