"Zazas has built a Lakeview following with New York-style pizzas that fall into the new Neapolitan category with thin, chewy, and foldable crusts topped with ingredients like truffled mushrooms, Calabrian chili, and soppressata. The rotating menu includes a bacon ham pie (red onions, Calabrian chili, cotija cheese, Sichuan garlic oil, scallions), a white pie (garlic, olive oil, whipped ricotta, mozzarella, basil, sesame seed crust), and a truffle mushroom pie (shiitake mushrooms, rosemary, garlic truffle cream, goat cheese, sea salt). Grandma-style pizzas are also available in limited quantities, and the restaurant is BYOB. Online ordering is available." - Ashok Selvam
"One of the city’s best slice shops is a five-minute drive south of Wrigley. Zazas Pizza specializes in NY-style pies and they’re available both by the slice and whole. There are a few seats, but folks would be wise to show up before a game to grab a slice and make the walk to the stadium." - Ashok Selvam
"Chicago’s lust for pizza can never be sated. Zazas is a casual New York-style pizza shop in Lakeview, and the pies here are very good. The crust is thin and chewy, glistens with olive oil, and is a wonderful vehicle for Zazas’ long list of toppings. You can order by the slice or pie, with options like a sweet and spicy bacon jam, or soppressata with hot honey. For the New York-style purists, there’s also a great pepperoni (with the cute little grease cups) and a white pie topped with fluffy dollops of ricotta. And luckily there’s a Binny’s right across the street. " - josh barnett, adrian kane, john ringor

"New York specialist Zaza’s has soared in popularity in Lakeview. The no-flop rule has nothing to do with LeBron James. It refers to the pizzeria’s commitment to making a more contemporary New York slice — forget the oversized monstrosities customers would find at Sbarro and elsewhere. Zaza’s pies are crispier and feature fun toppings. The truffle mushroom is stellar. Also, the vodka pie is worth an order." - Eater Staff
