Food: 5/5. Pizza is so good! I only had the Detroit style so far and it was amazing. Not that I've had a ton of that style, but I can only think of one place that's better, and even then they are practically on the same level. Will definitely come back to try the NY, grandma and Chicago styles sometime.

Service: 5/5. The employee at the counter saw we came in early to pick up our pizza, and he made sure ours was moved up so we could get it sooner. He was polite and professional, and it was getting close to closing, but there was no sense of impatience with the employees.

Atmosphere: only complaint is how small it is. If you go at peak, you likely might not get a seat. It's definitely geared towards takeout. Other than that, is is very clean and everything looks new.

Great variety of sourdough based crusts. We had the NY and grandma’s crust pizzas. Didn’t get a chance to try the Detroit but I’m sure it would have been equally good!
3 pizzas took about 20mins to wait for.
Clean but not a noteworthy interior. We opted to eat at the quiet patio out the back which was pleasant and had shade and sun options for our very late lunch time frame.

Different style of pizza. It was delicious. They have done in option, but we saw most people were doing only take out. There were no servers for the dine in option. But the good pizza trumped everything else!

I may have eaten more pizza in more places than anyone alive. I have traveled around the country for work, for speaking engagements and with my daughter on her national AAU team and everywhere I go, I get the best pizza there is in that area according to Yelp.

In addition I watch videos on pizza making, to learn about the best places in the country and about the way things work on the back of the house. As a result, I know my stuff. And I know what's good, bad and great.

I found out about Blue Square from a Phantom Gourmet video and subsequently another video from a pizza marketing source. I was impressed by the owner Troy and his borderline psychotic obsession with making the perfect dough and sauce. He makes a complex sourdough that he uses for all three varieties of his pizza, Detroit style, Grandma style and classic New York style pizza.

Blue Square is a reference to the particular steel pans used to make Detroit Pizza. That's their bread and butter (or sauce). It's a tiny little spot that's set up primarily for takeout. Just five tables. And two of them are being constantly used to assemble boxes, it's hard to keep up with the demand.

We got a small Detroit and a grandma, both with pepperoni. Both were outstanding. The Detroit was as expected. Thick, airy, light, crispy crust. Top quality cheese and THE best, freshest, most simple, yet flavorful sauce I have had. It came out first and was very impressive. A great pizza, particularly if you enjoy that style. What stood out were the bites that had no sauce. Normally this is not something I enjoy. Even good pizzas don't often have crusts that can stand alone as delicious. This sourdough stood alone as an amazing flavor profile.

Then the grandma came out... and my life has changed forever. I had to spend a little while considering this statement to make sure it wasn't the euphoria or recency bias. It's not. The pepperoni grandma pizza at Blue Square is THE best pizza I have ever had. Literal perfection for it's golden brown, incredible crisp and unbelievably flavorful crust to the top shelf cheese combination to the sauce... OMFG that sauce. As simple as it was flavorful... The best I've ever encountered. It's as fresh as it could be and seems as simple as it could be. It was like Troy took fresh San Marzanos and crushed them up, added some olive oil, a little spice and released this masterpiece into the world. Bright, fresh, brassy, incredible.
That pizza was a 12 out of 10. I can't imagine a better one exists anywhere. And I've been everywhere. Take the trip, hope there is a seat and understand how special this experience is.

Stopped in on the way to Gillette. Loved the pizza and salad. The young gentleman that took our order was great and the one that brought us our food was very nice and courteous!

The pizza crust was perfect and the combination of the toppings was amazing. Particularly loved the detroit white pizza and would recommend it to everyone. The hot honey just hit different.

The NY summer veggie was also pretty good so was the cheesy bread. Place is very clean and the staff is friendly.

I have had one of my best pizzas here. The Detroit style hot honey pizza is one of my new favorites. Cheese sticks are good too. I assume all their pizzas are made with sour dough and because of that there is a good flavor added to the taste. It's a take out place and so, the ambience is not dine-in friendly. Except that, it's a great place to eat. Moreover, Blue Square is really close to Hopkinton state park.
