- Erik RowleyNovember 2, 2016The best deep dish pizza in Chicago, more known by locals and where you want to come to experience the real thing. Sausage, Green peppers, onions, mushrooms with caramelized crust = heaven.
- bennAugust 4, 2016Coming here for the first time was a revelation. This is the best pizza I've had - any style, anywhere. My mom came to Chicago for the first time and I only recommended two places: here and Au ChevalUpvoted 1 week ago
- Diana FriessJune 20, 2019This is local, neighborhood pizza at its finest. The wait might be long, or it could be your lucky day & you'll get a seat right away. Grab a deep dish pizza & a local brew for a chill night out.
- Kevin M. McNally, CMPAugust 20, 2018I LOVE this place. Do I order Deep Dish or Thin? Who cares. They're both YUM. Fun atmosphere and great service. They always have a line for a short wait as this place is popular for locals/visitors.
- Ben K.September 6, 2016Hands down best deep dish pizza I've tried and only one I'd recommend. The small or medium is more than plenty for two. Try it with the housemade fennel sausage.
- Sara SteigerJune 3, 2016Amazing pizza!! The Deep dish crust is unreal! So many toppings to choose from! Be prepared to wait a long time for a table and 45 mins for the pizza.
- Serious EatsMay 21, 2013Extra Sauce, Extra Cheese Pie: It's a simple pizza—about as plain as a sausage deep dish gets, but its crust is one of the best in the city. The way everything comes together is simply magical.
- Kristen MoranNovember 30, 2018On a weekend night, there might be quite a wait, but there’s a place next door you can go for a drink. Up there with the best deep-dish - sausage and carmelized crust are awesome!
- Dieter KieselDecember 11, 2018This is neighborhood pizza at it's finest. The wait might be long, or it could be your lucky day & you'll get a seat right away. Grab a deep dish pizza & a local brew for a chill night out.
- Sophie PigottJanuary 23, 2015The deep dish pizza is AMAZING, it has carmalized crust and great toppings, if you are looking for a stuffed pizza this it not the place to go, this pizza is deep dish, the service is slow
- HK AnNaAugust 2, 2017I had lunch special(affordable price😍), it was tasty! wasnt salty and dough was crusty. waited 25 minutes till it comes out but it was worth it.(deep dish takes some time to cook..)
- Come on dude. It's all about the deep dish, originally created by Bert Kaz who only very recently closed his eponymous restaurant Burt's Place in Morton Grove due to health concerns. Chicago's best!
- Maggie R.August 19, 2014The caramelized crust on the deep dish is amazing. No pre-selected toppings so just pick what you want. Decent jalapeno poppers, too.
- Brian IbarraMarch 12, 2016During my time visiting Chicago this became the spot where I had the best Deep dish style pizza & gladly go back again to have more
- Redeye ChicagoAugust 3, 2014This popular pizzeria serves its share of meatball sandwiches, ravioli and plenty of garlic bread, but it's known for the addictive pan pizza, with its signature crust ringed with caramelized cheese. Read more
- ChicagoistAugust 1, 2014The thing that sets Pequod's apart is the beautifully crispy, thick carmelized crust. It isn't weighed down with too much sauce or cheese so it's never soggy and it’s cooked in cast iron. Read more
- Terrass MisherOctober 18, 2014The pan/deep dish is delicious because they have a unique, caramelized cheesy crust. As a new resident, I hold no allegiance to the other deep dish staples. Pequods is def #1deep dish contender!
- Brad HagerNovember 26, 2019GREAT pizza, fresh ingredients and the Carmelized crust is to die for. Couple of nice beers on tap.
- @jblaze305October 22, 2016Truly enjoyed the pizza, coming from Miami , it made me feel like I wasn't a tourist. Pizza crust is king here. Worth the trip, only thing that sucks is parking.
- Hawaiian deep dish pizza is the bomb. Start with jalapeño poppers and wash it down with a 312 or Green Line.
- Jennifer RoemmichSeptember 12, 2012Had this while on a Road Trip. Most amazing pizza Everrrr! The blackened crust is my favorite and I've been craving it ever since.
- Eddie SalceJuly 19, 2020Pizza is amazing. Not a Chicago pizza guy but this hit different. Oh and the garlic bread is great.
- David FagusNovember 18, 2011The crust on its deep dish pizza that is so good you will think you have gone to pizza heaven. Caramelized cheese helps create an unforgettable flavor. Busy all the time, but worth the wait.
- Kindall HAugust 17, 2016Ranked as on of Chicago's best places for deep dish pizza! Crush was a bit thick, otherwise delicious! Wings were great too!
- Sameer PatelJuly 22, 2017Best lunch special in Chicago. Pequods Chezzzzzzzzy crust to dough/meat ratio is ridunkly right. Thank me later.

- Great pizza place! Come early though because there's usually a wait. Worth it!
- Rafa 🇸🇦August 6, 2020Amazing pan pizza! Delicious like a homemade pizza. I’d highly recommend it to whoever is visiting Chicago. *Don’t expect a high end place.
- Cole TJune 19, 2017Waited 40 minutes for the pizza to cook but stacks up with the greats of deep dish in Chicago. Can get pitchers of beer which only adds to the convivial atmosphere this spot holds within.
- Pizza to die for! Try one with meatballs and ricotta cheese. Quickly became my fav deep dish pizza in Chicago.
- Stellaa DuhartMay 21, 2016Their deep dish is crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. It was not my favourite compared to the other 2 pizza places we toured, but it was good. It's more like a focaccia than a pizza.
- Matthew MoreyJune 27, 2013This place has the world's Best pizza, Bar None. I look forward to coming here every time I'm in Chicago. And Alexes is the best server EVER!!!!!
- Pepperoni & green olives. Do it. You won't regret that decision. Side of ranch for the crust? Yes, please.
- Louis BaltimoreJuly 30, 2017If you like cheese, get extra cheese as the normal amount is a bit small. But fantastic pizza otherwise. Great crust!
- Charlie AvalosAugust 13, 2014Deep dish pizza is incredible! Lunch special during week is a personal pizza and drink for $5 and change.
- TammyAugust 22, 2014Keep in mind that the toppings (on the chicago style deep dish) are not actually mixed in with the cheese, but rather they sit on top of the sauce like other regular pizzas.
- AngelaDecember 31, 2014The BEST pie in all of Chicagoland. Fresh, buttery, carmelized bread-like crust sets this place apart from all other pizza joints.
- Jon B.June 19, 2018Awesome pizza, which is a deep pan pizza vs. Chicago deep dish. Their sausage has excellent flavor.
- Aaron M.November 18, 2011Great pizza. If its too busy for you on the weekends, take it to go and eat it two doors down at Flounders. They're cool with it and have $4 lagunitas ipa on Friday.
- My absolute favorite Chicago pizza & for something different get the Italian beef sandwich on the cheesy garlic bread
- Jia O.May 24, 2016The crust has the consistency of a fluffy biscuit + caramelized, the tomato sauce is light and sweet (not salty), get ready
- Dana TedescoApril 28, 2014It's either embedded in my clothes or permanently immortalized in my nose, but 2 hours later and I keep smelling that deliciously cheesy "caramelized crust"...smells like candy! Must try Chi!
- Alix RecordNovember 16, 2016This pizza is homemade and the ingredients are yummy and not cheap. The balance of sauce to cheese to crust is exactly right.
- Awesome awesome awesome deep dish pizza. Always stop here when I'm in Chicago.
- Amanda RellaSeptember 26, 2017For trying deep dish for the first time, this spot was stellar. Pepperoni and black olives are a great combination :)
