DETROIT PIZZA DEPOT EXPANDS TO CRENSHAW BLVD

@DETROITPIZZAS

From the Motor City to the Angel City. Detroit Pizza Depot, founded by three Michigan transplants, is expanding from its Hollywood flagship to a new Inglewood kitchen on Crenshaw Blvd. The style traces back to 1940s Detroit autoworkers who used factory oil pans to bake what became the city's signature square pizza: crispy caramelized cheese edges, dense but light enough to eat with your hands. Build your own or go specialty, then wash it down with a Faygo.
