Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

Best pizza we have ever had. True to style, always consistent. So nostalgic. We have been eating their subs and pizza since we were little. I can't imagine going to Allen park and NOT going into Sylvias. Good people, great food.

My initial review had been removed for violating the terms and restrictions of the website.....Yikes, I feel like a derelict teenager getting my hand slapped.....I think I was talking quite a bit of smack (I'm not proud but I think I might have used the word "twat")....and I think it was kinda personal but hey, I had a bad experience on a bad day. So it's probably best that no one can see that drivel I had spewed a few months back about my heinous experience. I seem to keep having these experiences of having to go someplace for work, looking on Yelp, finding me some fantastic reviews and ending up being extremely disappointed because everyone is using their nostalgia for credence and this was yet another episode where I fell for the glowing revelry and lore of many locals who had grown up with this place... This review is just for a couple of slices and a pop, it wasn't that great.... maybe I should try one of their subs that everyone's talking about. I don't know, all I do know is that the ridiculous service and openly hostile lady I encountered swayed me to never go back.

I grabbed a WHOLE Super Cheese and Steak sub with mushrooms and green peppers and onions.( Cut in half, a half feeds one person) and 4 slices to go to take home for Monday Night Football. When the BF asked what i got him, I told him a half a sub and a slice and gestured towards the bag-He eyed me. I then had to explain that one half of a sub is almost he size of a whole sub from other places. :) The BF (being new to the area) had never tried Sylvias and he had to stop eating and say what a good sandwich it was. The slices are always better when they are hot out of the oven, so the 15 minute drive home ( yes, i drove almost 20 minutes out of my way) caused for a re-heat in the toaster oven. But they were still amazing. I always forget about this place, but i really need to stop in more often for just some good down home food. FYI: the service can be a bit slow, it's family owned and hey employ the local High School kids. Back on 10/21/14 It was still awesome!! Same order as last time, but i couldnt even finish my half of the sub, it must have gotten bigger since the last time we were here.

Awesome cheese steak subs and party wings. They have good combo deals with fries and a drink and their pizza is very delicious, very cheesy but good.
(4)Ben D.
Very good subs! I have been coming here since the late 80's and it is still just as awesome! The interior is old but the emphasis is on the food. The pizza is good but very heavy.

I love this place!! I used to go all the time as a kid. My brother and I would get a slice of pizza and play mortal combat for what seemed like hours. Just recently my mom took me back here and it was like going back in time. Nothing as changed about this place they still have the same fo wood booths and the same pictures on the walls. The only thing that's gone is the mortal combat and gun shooting arcade games. Biting into the pizza again for the first time in well over 10 years brought back many good memories. The cheese is thick, pepperonis filled with grease, very thin layer of sauce, the prefect pizza even now as an adult. I also got the taco salad it was incredible. It's such a simple salad, smashed Doritos, lettuces, and ground beef, I got the vinegar dressing to go with it and its addicting good. I will be coming back here and bringing my son once he is old enough to enjoy a not so heathy slice of pizza.

I usually love this place,but lately I've been noticing the downfall in customer service. The girls cooking your food seem to be more worried about out of work convos instead of focusing on the customer. The service is also slowing down. They have brilliant food maybe a team meeting can fix this. Also, they need to expand gets too crowded.

I ordered 4 steak and cheese sandwiches and neither sandwich had sauce. I called and spoke with a manager name Hanna who told me "since we don't charge for sauce, there's nothing they can do". She then stated "have a merry Christmas" and disconnected the call. I called back and spoke to the owner Greg to report what had happened and he seemed unconcerned about his customers being treated this way. I use to eat me all the time as well as my coworkers. They have definitely lost a customer. I would not recommend any restaurant that treats their customers this way. There's ALWAYS something you can do, but apparently your establishment is not willing to do it. Good food is not worth horrible service. With service like this I'm sure you'll be out of business soon.

Im so mad I dont work in this area any more pizza is greasy and delicious super cheesy.the best
(5)Debi A.
The subs are good.. The pizza is yummy. But the service could use some work ..Mostly kids who are walking around with their head in the clouds . They are nice but could use a big more training and could be a little more professional. The food is good though and the now deliver so that's a bonus.
(3)Alan H.
Very cool little greasy spoon sub shop(which is very clean and has a warm interior). I got the 1/2 pizza steak sub and a slice of pepperoni pizza. Friendly service, good food, and simple. I feel kind of fat afterward, so it did its job well- Great little hole in the wall!
(3)T. J.
I enjoy the occasional Steak Cheese & Mushroom sub and this place has been around forever. Typical grilled subs. My complaint is that the lights inside flicker. Honest to God it made the whole experience headache inducing.
(3)Matt M.
Typical grinders, pretty average, but I love this place. Staff is very nice and the steak and cheese is really filling. Very satisfying on my lunch break.
(3)David R.
I have been going to this place since I was about 3 years old! Really miss my high school days at Mr. Billiards too! Still the best pizza and subs around!
(5)Hymae W.
Been here twice and both times i was not impressed. The last visit I got the chesse burger and bacon sub. Good concept but the meats they used are subpar. Plus i feel like i need a UAW badge to go in this place.

I had a blind date in the works, and needed a place to meet up. I happened to mention that I don't mind a good dive if the food is good, and immediately my date (and now boyfriend) suggested we go to Sylvia's. Sylvia's is a legit dive, in the best sense of the word: a lunch counter full of regulars, wood paneling, handwritten sign to inform patrons that there are no refills on pop, and a massive menu at the door of all of the sandwiches you can eat. I ordered the Italian sausage sub. They take the sausage out of the casings and throw the meat on the grill top. The meat is then thrown into Italian sub buns (the airy variety that really lack that crustiness I tend to crave), covered with cheese (provolone or mozzarella, I honestly couldn't tell you which) and then covered with crisp, shredded lettuce, thinly sliced onions, and tomato slices, and a dressing that consists of oil, vinegar, and some "spices" (I added my own black pepper). I actually thought the sandwich was delightful! And the portions? HUGE. A little unimaginative, but a good, solid, working-class joint. I'd come back if I really wanted a gut-buster (and heck, who am I kidding? Sometimes I do!).

Best subs Downriver! Love the Pizza Steak Sub
(4)Chris W.
Cardboard with a dash of sauce and "cheese" thank god for the greasy pepperoni or there would zero flavor.
(2)Gary V.
Update! Still awesome.
(5)Chrissy J.
Terrible pizza--more grease than anything else. Boring, mediocre subs/salads/sides. Oh, and if you're a girl between the ages of, say, 14 and 30...prepare to be oogled. Seriously, you're telling your order to the guy behind the counter, and he's giving your boobs the total. Gross in every way.

Rarely does my husband hate a place so much as he hated this one. He says it is a one but as I am the one writing the review I will give it a two. Maybe you have to be a local to *get* it or something but I was not too overly jazzed either. We ordered steak subs with cheese, I went with a super steak and cheese and James opted for pizza steak. The portions here are huge. Ridiculously huge. The flavor is hard to find though. The meat is chopped super fine and tastes completely unseasoned. The cheese is not abundant. Veggies consist of lettuce and tomato sprinkled on top with a shot of Italian dressing added. If I had known this I would have asked for onions and peppers cooked in or added. Usually a steak sub has onion at least. Luckily I asked for hot peppers, unluckily these are not the cherry type pepper but the mild banana pepper type. Because the meat is unseasoned and the cheese is not a strong presence all I tasted was the banana pepper really. Meh. James' pizza steak sub was apparently worse. I did not try it to be honest but he was clearly not a fan. He says the creation was truly tasteless. He is not a picky eater or anything either, if he is not a fan I know I will like it even less as a general rule. I did like the sub bread, soft textured but with that needed bit of chew. Sadly though we had to pick napkin pieces off of it. The girl wrapped our freshly made sammies in napkins she did some marker writing on, identifying which sandwich was which. These napkins were made soggy by the trapped steam, clinging to the bread in an extremely unappealling way (think wet toilet paper), requiring you to pick them off in strips. Ewww. The lettuce is wilted and slimy if you travel any distance, I recommend skipping it if you are not eating in. The tomatoes were mealy and as tasteless as the meat. I would advise skipping them too. Overall, I think I will skip the whole thing myself. Sorry Sylvia's fans, I am not trying to be rude at all, I really just don't get the appeal.

A lunchtime favorite....The pizza is always good and the steak subs are tasty as well. Its good, quick, food that is reasonably priced and everyone is friendly and service prompt.
(3)Vince N.
Had a jumbo steak and cheese. Not really great or bad, just average. could use a little more seasoning as it was a little bit bland.

Did you ever have to take a napkin, fold it in half, and sop up the grease from the pepperoni? Did you ever feel like there was this huge lump of cheese and dough in your stomach that just didn't seem to digest? Did your ever see dead people as your sight started to blurr? Talk about an acquired taste for something, this is the place. We went here after our afternoon of glowing balls at the Thunderbowl across the street. Years have passed since the last time I was here. The smell brought me back. The reason the pepperoni puddles with grease is because of how thick it is sliced. It rolls into the perfect cup with just enough room to hold all the grease without any spillage. But the taste of the pizza is just as I remembered it. The cheese is plentiful and sweet tasting. The dough cooked just enough to be soft to the bite. The sauce is also different, not too spicy, not too sweet. An evening of bowling and Sylvia's pizza reminds me of a Jethro Tull song saying "greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes". This brought me back to first dates of bowling, pizza and a good night greasy kiss.

I love this place! The pizza is so greasy and so good. The taco salad is incredible, and the pizza steak sub has me thinking of driving there right now. I've been going to this place since I was a kid and I'm convinced that 90% of the meals my dad and I enjoyed were either here, or at the old Bill Knapps on Greenfield in Dearborn. Living now in Ann Arbor but working in Grosse Pointe, there are some days when I'll just have to hop off 94, hit Southfield and make a stop at Sylvias, at which point I'll call my wife. And suddenly that filet and lobster she was preparing is cast aside, in favor of a few of these slices. My only complaint is a sign I saw the other day. There is a sign above the pop machine that says "No Free Refills." Now come on dude. A pop costs a restaurant about 1.2 cents...and you can't give some poor kid a free refill after he's likely paid about $1.49 for it?

Sylvia's is one of those places that you just have to be a local to understand. It has been here forever, and has had the same regulars for 30 years, and only gains more regulars. I cannot beleive I am the first to review it. I will gladly take the honor though. Sylvia's is a family owned sub shop who serve up a very wide variety of subs, a small selection nof salads, and pizza. Now to just go to Sylvia's not in the know you would easily fall flat on your face, but because you're here reading this... I will guide you! The subs here are huge, and you have the option of whole or half. I ussually get half because my dog enjoys them too. Your best choices in this department are the steak and cheese or the taco. Because this resturaunt is 5 houses away from me, I take them home and dress them up a bit more (Wishbone italian and Frank's red hot are critical on the steak and cheese). I have not had one of the salads, but from what I hear, and based on the newspaper clippings on the wall, the taco and tuna salad are amazing choices. The pizza is an aquired taste. You have to know it's purpose and how to bring in after market products. They only have one size (too big), and it is dirty cheap. Your best option here is the special that has a ton of meat, green peppers and onions and mushrooms. Fresh this pizza is not very good compared to the hundreds of great pizza options, but when drunk, or just coming off a drunk, and this mammoth pie is sitting on the counter, this thing turns into working class gourmet!!!

It has nothing to do with being a local, I can assure you. I am a local, I have been to Sylvias many times hoping for a good meal, and all I got was horrible service. Especially from Sylvia and Greg over the years. You ask why did you continue to go then? Well it was my exhusbands choice and he went for the greasy pizza and bland taco subs.....We are now divorced and I am gladly giving my money to more appreciative local businesses with far better pizza and subs......The decor alone of Sylvias makes me wonder how clean the place is ICK!

Get the big giant sub or giant pizza this joint has been around for oh I don't know over 20 years if u are having a party and need a giant sub or pizza this is your place u won't be disappointed.
(5)Stephanie K.
The subs are amazing. I remember eating here in high school but just rediscovered them. So good
(5)Andrew B.
The pizza is great! The subs are awesome I've tried at least 6 different subs on the menu and have not been disapointed once. Don't bother ordering a whole unless your looking for 2 days worth of food. Top notch!
(5)Ken R.
Over ten years ago, I would have given Sylvia's 5 stars, however my former favorite place to get pizza has fallen apart. It started with smaller pizza sizes and raising prices. More troubling is that not as much cheese is added to their pizzas. Too many times when either getting a slice or whole pizza the quaility stinks. The corner pieces are now little more than burnt pieces with sauce. Would be much happier if the pizza Sylvia's served looked liked the one on the profile pic here!

I cant beleive that I am only the second one to review this place. I have been going here since I was a kid and bowled on a summer league across the street in the mid/late 80's. I come for the pizza and the captains salad (meats & cheeses). The pizza is xtra greasy with thick cut pepperoni and a good crust. The Captains salad is one of the best "simple" salads I have ever had
(5)Dave C.
real good subs and alright pizza.
