Zachary's Chicago Pizza

Pizza restaurant · Rockridge

@eater

"Typically a Chicago specialty, deep-dish pizza hit the Bay Area in 1983 via midwestern transplants Zach Zachowski and Barbara Gabel who opened Zachary’s on Oakland’s College Avenue. Now employee-owned, the company has grown to five locations throughout the East Bay, and the pizza is as good as ever. Super chunky tomato sauce crowns traditional and seasonal toppings. Many kids opt for thin-crust, also worthy, and salads that satisfy the parental desire for nutritional balance on pizza night. Winners of the house-hosted, decades-long art contest adorn the walls of all restaurants and make for a fun visual scavenger-hunt distraction for little eyes while the pizza cooks." - Justine Jones, Laura Smith Borrman
