Editorial Review

by Contributor at Citysearch, December 16, 2004

Even Windy City natives will revel in the deep-dish at this East Bay pizza mecca.
The Scene
In this cozy haven, the din of diners mingles with the clamor of a frantic kitchen. Plaques, posters and other Zachary's paraphernalia plaster the walls in a declaration of the unrivaled splendor of its pizza. Piping-hot pies are served in the cramped dining area on wooden stools beside each table.

The Food
Ooey-gooey, crispy and chewy, the stuffed pizzas preserve the flavor of ingredients by sealing them between two layers of dough. The signature Pride and Joy pie, like the other deep-stuffed pizzas, harbors the freshness of an organic garden. Between the golden bed of baked dough and the top quilt of zesty tomato chunks and secret spices is a moist mix of spinach, mushrooms, melted cheeses and dough. Though most famous for its thick, rich pies, the thin-crust Zachary's Special makes omnivores of everyone, with its savory melange of onions, mushrooms and green peppers scattered abundantly around pieces of succulent Italian sausages.

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... More >

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... More >
