Detroit style pizza has been taking over Toronto lately, with its eye-catching rectangular shape, thick, fluffy dough and crispy, cheesy corners. From strictly traditional to Filipino-influenced, we're loving this type of pizza originating south of the border now more than ever.

Here are the top Detroit style pizza places in Toronto right now.

Parkdale now has this place for "patties and pies" that does burgers and Detroit style pizza topped with options like pepperoni, pineapple or anchovies. Don't sleep on the garlic bread or mozza sticks, either.

Beauty Eats

This cleverly named pizza place near Yonge and Bloor on Charles has been turning out White Truffle, Sweet Heat, Pepperoni and Veggie pizzas, and you can even do half-and-half toppings if you want to try more than one kind at once.
