About Jet's pizza
Detroit's authentic jets pizza tradition — crafted with passion, perfected over decades, and delivered with pride to tables across the United States.
A Detroit Legend Since 1978
Jet's pizza was born in the heart of Detroit, Michigan — a city famous for its grit, creativity, and deep-dish devotion. What started as a single family-owned pizzeria has grown into one of America's most beloved pizza brands, serving jet's pizza fans from coast to coast.
Our founders, Eugene and John Jetts, believed that great pizza starts with great ingredients. From hand-rolled dough made fresh daily to our signature eight-corner deep-dish crust — every detail matters. The Jetts family recipe has remained unchanged since day one, because some traditions are worth protecting.
Today, jets pizza spans hundreds of locations across the United States, yet every pizza still carries the soul of that original Detroit kitchen — bold flavors, generous toppings, and the kind of quality that keeps customers coming back for decades.
