What is Detroit Style Pizza?
Start with a thick, chewy Sicilian crust. Line the crust with a layer of pepperoni. Mound plenty of cheese on top all the way to the edge. Heap any extra toppings on the cheese. Drizzle on a thick layer of signature red sauce that trickles through the bubbling cheese.
IT’S SQUARE
One of the first things pizza lovers notice is that Detroit style pizza is square in shape. This is because in true Motor City fashion, authentic Detroit-style pizza is baked in square, blue steel automotive parts pans. Traditionally, deck ovens are used for baking.
IT’S UPSIDE DOWN
Detroit-style pizza is often referred to as upside-down pizza or red top pizza because the sauce is on top.

"Descendant works hard at perfecting the details. Every detail. Which is the reason it’s one of the top pizzas in the city. The 48 hour cold fermentation. The time and labour it takes to push the dough. Then come back to it, making sure the corners are perfect. Temperature check everything. The dough room, proof room, flour, water, everything. Every detail. Delivering a consistent perfect pizza every time. This is pizza executed at a high level. It’s also the first Detroit style pizza in Toronto and possibly Canada."
