Excellent little shop serving up delicious Detroit style pizza! Opened in 2019, this quick and convenient venue is one of the best spots for a fulfilling weekday lunch.

The portions are generous for the price. Menu is diverse with some asian influence to it, but most importantly the pizza pies are scrumptious.

September 2022:
It's been a few years and I thought I'd update my review. I ordered a few pizzas and salads. I still love 💓😘 the Detroit style pizza here. The crust has a lot of cheesey goodness! We tried the pesto mushroom, the supreme, the kimchi bulgogi and the sausage mushroom.

I really like the way the salads are packaged in reusable jars. Tried the kale Caesar and the Chinese chicken salad. Both were great and a big hit with everyone.

2019:
Wow. 🍕 is fantastic!  Tried the Korean meatball pizza and the Detroit pepperoni pizza. Especially loved the Detroit style pizza. 😀

Had one of the arugula salads which was hearty.

Can't wait to come back again and taste the other options!

Pretty solid pizza but not worth $6 a slice in my opinion. All of the slices had the texture of crispy garlic bread which was unique but personally not my favorite.

We tried the pepperoni, chicken curry, and cheese slices and our favorite was the chicken curry (mostly because of the novelty). The pepperoni was pretty good too with crispy edges but would not recommend the cheese slice.

Overall it is a very convenient, quick stop but I wouldn’t come back.

We were initially excited a pizza place opened nearby but these decently sized thick, fluffy, and crispy pieces of bread lack the sauce and cheese to be what I would call pizza. The taste is average; the cheese is disappointing; the flavors are lacking.

In the Detroit style caramelized onion with gruyere only one bite could I taste even a hint of gruyere. The onions were tasty and owned the show. The sauce and cheese was lackluster.
The Sicilian style Korean meatball again lacked complexity.

If you like your ratio of bread:sauce:cheese to be a 5:1:1(maybe 2) this is the place. I am a bit biased and like a bit more sauce and A LOT more cheese.

When I go out to eat pizza I want to leave feeling satisfied with my choice even though I know my stomach may not appreciate all the gluten later... with Pizza Squared I left wishing I hadn’t eaten it in the first place. But, at least we tried and now we know.

Alright. Now that I have tried all relevant Detroit Pizza in San Francisco which means I only excluded two places that look like they aren't actually Detroit Pizza/ possibly some kind of cover up for something (8 Mile Pi, Mio Motto) which means I tried all of them. All the Detroit you can possibly try in San Francisco and this is good stuff for sure. But here's the thing, as good as it is - it is the only one that doesn't have super distinct characteristics about it like everyone else's Detroit Style. This is a good thing depending on how you look at it. I think this is almost as good as Sunset Squaredsbut I prefer Sunset Squares because they use San Francisco Sourdough whereas Pizza Squared is kind of the only Detroit Style Pizza in San Francisco that explains Detroit Style in a neutral way.

That is what I can say for Pizza Squared, it is entry level or because you try them all is why you try this. Or you just don't want "dank" Detroit Style which I can see someone out there maybe wants however the whole point of Detroit Style Pizza is to eat something "drank". I would say do not hesitate to try them but they are Mid objectively after trying all the Detroit Style Pizza in San Francisco.
