Editorial Rating: Highly Recommended
The Scene
In this cozy pizza haven, the incessant din of diners mingles with the clamor of a frantic kitchen. Plaques, posters and other Zachary's paraphernalia emphatically plaster the walls in 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 luscious 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 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 thick, rich pies, the thin-crust Zachary's Special invariably makes omnivores of everyone, with its savory melange of onions, mushrooms and green peppers scattered abundantly around pieces of succulent Italian sausages.
"Even Windy City natives will revel in the deep-dish at this East Bay pizza mecca."
