Sicily’s Pizzeria & Subs
Southwest Detroit’s sourdough specialist, with a Detroit square hiding inside the broad menu.
NOAH’S TAKE
Sicily’s has been working from West Vernor since 1989 and builds its pizza on naturally fermented sourdough without commercial yeast. The menu covers round pies, Detroit squares, calzones, subs, and pasta, but the dough is the thread worth following.
THE MOVEDETROIT-STYLE
Order the Detroit square to put the sourdough into a crisp-edged pan. Takeout and delivery are the cleanest way to work it into the night.
GO HERE WHEN
You want a Southwest stop where the crust has a distinct sourdough point of view.
MAYBE NOT WHEN
The plan depends on a polished dining room and bar.
GOOD TO KNOWSicily’s makes round, square, and gluten-free pizzas; specify the Detroit square when ordering.
