Domino's Has Done It Again...

Summary of the video (auto-subtitle based)
The host reviews Domino’s “The Domino,” a Detroit-style rectangular pizza designed to resemble the format popularized by Pizza Hut. It features a thicker base dough, lots of fillings, multiple layers of sauce, cheese and toppings (advertised with pepperoni), and garlic seasoning. The pizza costs about $8.75, and the host orders extra pepperoni.
After opening the order, the pizza arrives in an unusually greasy box, with grease soaking into the bottom. While the pizza stays intact physically, the host’s main complaints are about the eating experience and how it compares to real Detroit-style expectations.
They argue that genuine Detroit-style should be topping-forward and balanced, with more filling/cheese/sauce than plain dough. However, after cutting and inspecting the pizza, the host finds that much of what looks like cheese or filling is actually dough. They describe the pizza as:
- Rubbery/chewy
- Underwhelming in flavor
- Lacking proper filling
- Missing or having limited sauce layering
- Unbalanced overall
They also feel that the extra pepperoni doesn’t translate to real extra toppings. Texture and grease are criticized repeatedly as well, including a sense of fat and partially undercooked dough, leading to a disappointing and unpleasant bite.
The host concludes that Domino’s has some menu items they like (such as pan pizza and thick-crust options), but this specific Detroit-style concept isn’t working. They recommend sticking to Domino’s “classics” instead, and give it a low score: 3/10.
