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's business. This is one of those places were you probably never change your order, because it's just too good to experiment with. If the pizza itself wasn't enough to convince yourself, just take a look around the walls at the non-stop reviewers singing its praise. But more importantly, are the super-fan posters that cover the walls. I guess when you're this good, you don't need to invest in art. Don't be afraid of the crowded mess inside, because Zachary's will let you order your food as soon as you put in your name. And that's important, because for safety sake, when you smell that pizza floating around, piled up on bar stools next to people's tables, a riot could break out at any moment. This is the kind of place you order a large, knowing you can only stomach half, but the cold leftovers are an art unto itself. With the delicious flaky crust, toppings dancing with the cheese stuffed (most importantly) inside, and topped off with rich piles of chunky tomatoes, you'll never forgive yourself that you didn't go sooner. So grab a slice, dive in with a fork and knife, or pick it straight up if you're brave, and your belly will reach Good Grub euphoria before you know it. See more at www.thegoodgrub.weebly. com

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 we were waiting so the pizza can come out right when we sat down!
