Jet's Detroit-style pizza.
Jet's Pizza will bring its Detroit-style pizza to Alexandria.
Washington Business Journal first reported that the Detroit-style pizzeria will take up residence at the closed Auburn Cleaners at 6 E. Glebe Rd. The cleaners was located next door to the restaurant Northside 10.
In addition to Detroit-style pizza, which is on a thick-but-light crust with cheese all the way to the edges, Jet's also serves New York-style pizza, wings and salads.
Eugene Jetts founded the pizza company in 1978 in Sterling Heights, Michigan, north of Detroit. The original location was called Jetts Party Shoppe & Pizzeria.
There are now several hundred locations in more than 20 states. If you want an early taste, the closest location to Alexandria is in Virginia Beach.
