Deep dish done right – If the title does not explain it, then go for a visit. Aside from Cheeseboard, Zachary's is where I would take any friend or visitor. Not the same as Cheeseboard, but maybe equally as satisfying.

I'm Chicago-born and Raised – Zachary's is fresh pizza but very bland. I'd put it at the bottom of the list in Chicago. Pizza in Chicago centers on quality and taste to distinguish their pizza as the best. Zachary's has no taste. The sauce is boring and too tomatoe-y. The crust is flaky and dry and tasteless. It fills your stomach, but can't compete in Chicago at all.

Zachary's = Good Grub! – Chicago can officially take a hike. You've been outdone. There's no shame in that. You're pizza is good, but Zachary's is amazing. How do they do it? Is it because they're 100% employee owned? Is it because they sprinkle magic deliciousness into the sauce? I don't know, and more importantly, I don't care. Just keep the Spinach and Mushroom stuffed pizza coming my way. Don't like Spinach and mushroom? At age six I wouldn't eat a mushroom dipped in nacho cheese, but I would down this stuff like nobody'... read more

Tasty Pizza – These days pizzas are in just about every corner. But you must taste Spinach & Mushroom Zachary's "Pride and Joy" at Zachary?s, it is so tasty; you just want to wish that it never finishes. It is a ?must visit? place.

best chicago pizza! – I went to visit my friend in Berkeley and asked her to take me to the best pizza place in town, and she brought me to Zachary's. And must I say, I was not disappointed! I'm more of a New York Pizza fan, but this place had amazing deep-dish pizza with a lot of tomato sauce! The Chicken Pizza and Spinach & Mushroom (both under Zachary's "favorites") were absolutely delicious! Although it was pretty packed (It was a Friday night), they had a very efficient waiting system where we would order the food while... read more

The best pizza you will ever eat – They serve regular thin-crust, but you'd be a fool not to get the deep-dish. Best tomato sauce anywhere, delicious cheese, tons of toppings to chose from, but even plain old cheese is hardly "plain." There can be a long wait on weekend nights, but the place is fun and the servers are good, and its worth the wait every time once you tuck in. Calling ahead is probably a good idea on weekends. This place has been Zagat rated since the early nineties. You can even buy half-baked pizzas to take ... read more

Hot, Gooey Deep Dish Pizza – This place is hopping. Very, very busy. Call ahead if you want take-out. The crust is good, the tomato sauce is excellent, and everything is good. The deep dish pizza is very gooey and rich. Pesto is especially recommended. A high -quality pizza product, much better than a chain.

Great Chicago style pizza! MMMM... – Okay. So Zachary's has got some amazing pizzas. Although they are still the best around, they haven't been as consistent as they use to be. Don't get me wrong though. When I want deep dish pizza, I always come here. I think they are way too busy and they have been rushing lately. Otherwise, I love this place. It is extremely crowded almost everynight so you'll have to wait for a seat!

Not really Chicago style, but still good... – Yes, the secret is true. Zachary's isn't really Chicago style. But who doesn't like the deep dish here though anyway? A slice is a meal in itself. The crust could use a little more flavor, but it's not horrible. Don't get the thin crust, there's no point really. Wish they delivered, or at least could speed things up a little...
