    Deep Dish pizza in ‘Frisco

    By | January 31, 2008

    Chicago style deep dish pizza is a variant of the pizza and has an extremely thick base. Much thicker than even a thick crust and is peculiar to San Francisco. There are a few places in San Francisco that can replicate Chicago’s deep dish pizza with great success and should make a place on your must do list.

    Zachary’s Pizza is one such place. The pizzas here are simply superb and shouldn’t be missed for anything. They have a lot of vegetarian as well as non-vegetarian pizza options. Each pizza comes loaded with a lot of veggies all over it. Their spinach and mushroom pizza is extremely popular and is generally preferred over the non vegetarian options on the menu. It is all over the East Bay and is a place frequented by families. They are the recipients of countless number of awards and they display them all proudly on their walls. The drawback at this joint is definitely the crusts which aren’t all that great and they also tend to get soggy.

    Little Star is located in San Francisco and there crusts are excellent. The crusts are sinfully unhealthy and made with a lot of butter. They are a lot tastier than those at Zachary’s and they can also hold the toppings better without getting soggy. The pizzas here also are excellent and this place has its own loyal clientele. The spicy chicken wings here are also excellent and have to be tried when here.  This place is a little fussy however in the sense that they accept only cash. So be sure you’re carrying a little extra when you get there.

    My personal favorite would be Little Star though that is only my personal opinion. Check out both to form your own opinion about both these great joints.
