Best Pizza Ever, Wish Pizza was Healthier
3 Star Rating: Average

I'm all about the half baked pizza's. No waiting in line, no tips (haha), and you can go home and heat it up on your own. The pizza can't get any fresher. Whenever my work brings me by a Zachary's Pizza, I always have to stop by and pick up some dinner. The only thing I don't like is that the phone is usually busy. I don't think they have multiple lines at Zachary's, which is annoying when you're trying to place an order to go. But in all reality, this is the best pizza I've ever had. Yes, it is expensive, but you get 3 meals out of a medium pizza. My girlfriend and I split a medium pizza, and it'll last us dinner, late dinner, and usually to lunch the next day. The only pizza that they have which is not that good is the healthy pizza. Make sure you get deep dish though. There's no reason for going if you don't get a deep dish pizza. Their tomatoe sauce is very unique, by I like the different flavor. Being a foreigner, where I come from, tomatoes are part of almost every meal. Avoid going in the evenings or on the weekends. The lines are crazy. Order to go if possible.

Pros: Pizza... What Else Can I Say

Cons: Phone Line is Almost Always Busy
