Emmy Squared Pizza: Plaza Midwood

Early Sunday afternoon. Manager was gracious and pleasant. Had the shaved Brussels sprouts salad, glass of Rose wine and the deluxe pizza without meat. The cheese sticks and marinara sauce was excellent. Would definitely recommend.

Perfectly cooked Detroit style pizza. Deep yet still insanely crispy and delicious. Love that they have gluten free crust. So good!!

Really enjoyed the pizza… a lot! Just wish they were more informative on their Sunday special, we got two pizzas just for this reason, and two glasses of wine, they advertise buy one pizza get one half off and $5 house wine, they in fact were not bogo or $5 glasses of wine. Maybe be a bit more descriptive for your guests. Loved the pizza though!

As a Detroit native, I grew up on deep dish, square-cut pizza—so you can imagine how much I’ve missed true Detroit-style down here. It’s just not easy to find! After hearing about Emmy Squared Pizza, I finally made the drive from the Lake Norman area to see what the hype was all about, and I’m so glad I did. On my first visit, I stopped in just to check things out and had a great conversation with Kayla, the manager, who convinced me this wasn’t just pizza—it was an experience. That stuck with me, so I came back ready to try it for real. Karen, my server, was fantastic—patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful as I debated my options. She recommended the Big Hawaiian and the Margherita. I went with the Hawaiian… and wow! Flavorful, perfectly balanced, and that signature crispy-edged crust? Absolutely worth the drive. I also tried the Gingerly Yours mocktail—so refreshing and well-crafted. A perfect pairing. The only thing missing? My husband—he’s a fellow foodie and would have loved this. But don’t worry, we’ll be back. I already have my eye on trying more, maybe even checking out their South End location next. We have many neighbors here in Davidson who are originally from Mi

Emmy Squared Pizza — 4.5 Stars of “Why Is This Place Empty When the Pizza Is This Good?” 🍕🔥😅 Emmy Squared is the Detroit‑style pizza champion nobody talks about… probably because there’s never anyone inside to talk about it. 😭🍕 You walk in expecting a crowd, and instead it’s just you, the staff, and a pizza that’s about to change your whole mood. Empty dining room, full heart. ❤️😂 The pizza? Ridiculous. Crispy edges that crunch like they’ve been training for the Olympics. 🥇 Cheese that melts like it’s trying to flirt with you. 😏🧀 Sauce that hits you with that “oh okay, I see what we’re doing today” energy. 🍅💥 We’ve been here multiple times — because it never disappoints. Not once. Not even a little. Every visit is like, “Yep… still fire.” 🔥🔥🔥 And yet… the place stays empty. Like Emmy Squared is the best-kept secret in the city and everyone else is out here eating sadness‑flavored pizza somewhere else. 😐🍕 Service is chill, food comes out fast (because, again… it’s just us in here), and the whole vibe is “underrated gem that deserves more love but also kinda nice having it all to ourselves.” 😎✨ Final Verdict: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (or at least a very strong 4.5) Amazing pizza, zero crowds
