Benelli's Pizzeria is now serving up Detroit-style pizza in the former Hungry Howie’s spot in Valparaiso.

The pizzeria opened at 15 Roosevelt Road in Valparaiso. It offers many Detroit-style deep dish options like Brickyard Cheese; Brickhouse BLT; Detroit O.G.; the Over and Under, with layers of pepperoni over and under the cheese, and Harvest Time, which is loaded with veggies like fresh Roma tomatoes. It makes the Detroit-style pizza with authentic Wisconsin brick cheese.

The trendy pizza style started four hours east in the Motor City, where Buddy's started cooking a focaccia-like pizza with caramelized crusts in tool pans from auto plants.

Benelli's also has hand-tossed pizzas like the eight-cheese Cheesy Does It and appetizers like cheese bread, tomato bread and Garlic Parm Benelli
