At Pizza By Ruffin, the Detroit-style pizza arrives as a rectangular pan pie with a tall, airy crust, a swipe of red sauce, and a heavy blanket of cheese that bakes up into a crisp, lacy edge. This version is distinguished by careful dough fermentation and a focus on balanced toppings, so the richness of cheese and oil is supported by a lively sauce rather than overwhelming it. Bites have a satisfying mix of crunch and softness, with the edge pieces especially prized for their caramelized cheese and slightly chewy corners. Editorial roundups of Detroit-style pizza consistently include Pizza By Ruffin among the city’s top square pie specialists, emphasizing its attention to technique.
