• Pizzeria • Ann Arbor

It was the 1930s and Six Mile and Conant was like any street corner in Detroit… people walking to the market, neighbors helping neighbors, and friends meeting at the local gathering spot now known as Buddy’s. Buddy’s existed as a “blind pig,” skirting the State and Federal laws that governed the on-site sale and usage of alcohol. Booze was available there. The owner at the time was August “Gus” Guerra.

We had a wonderful experience. The food was amazing— everything from the appetizers to the dessert. Our waiter knew how to “read” the table, and was attentive. We haven’t been to The Earl in years, but will definitely be on our list of restaurants to return to soon!

Always good food and service, feels like a special night out in nice restaurant but relaxed welcoming atmosphere. The soups are a bit salty sometimes. The restaurant can be a bit noisy when full especially with the piano, so hard to hear if at a larger table, even with only 4 people.
