For diners who have never sampled authentic Chicago-style deep-dish pizza, PizzaPapalis will knock your socks off. And even those who have will appreciate the pie here. While the wait just to get a seat on weekends can seem endless and the perfect pizza takes at least 30 minutes to bake, you'll find it's time well spent. Stuffed pizza several inches thick arrives to the table piping hot and oozing with enough cheese to prompt a stern lecture from your cardiologist. Those who prefer not to indulge will be quite happy with the variety of salads and other entrees. Since many kids (and adults, too) have experienced only the instant gratification of national chain pizza, this will be a real treat for the first-timer. And as a special bonus, the Greektown location runs shuttles to and from all Red Wings games. -- Heidi Rehak Lovy
