The menu has many delicious options. Your can order just one slice or any size pizza you want with a variety of scrumptious toppings. My small mouthwatering pizza was a hot, cheesy, saucy offering with sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms and spinach. There was plenty left over to take home for two more meals. The service staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. The ambiance is great. I loved the artfully pleasing wall decor. The place is super clean and that includes the bathrooms.
This was the first time I dined in because I usually get take out. But there is spacious seating here that can accommodate any size group.

Forgot to make a review a year ago when I revisited. After a decade, I’m happy to say that the delicious taste of this deep dish pizza is still the same as before! There’s no place like Zachary’s, I highly recommend it. If there thin crust pizzas are anything like I remember, those were also really good. I also love that all locations have art pieces of Zachary’s in different media, it’s very fun and unique!

Tried Zachary’s for the first time and it was also my first time having deep dish, I’m a big fan! There were plenty of vegetarian options. We got the spinach and mushroom pie, and it was delicious with amazing cheese pulls. A small was more than enough for two, possibly three, so it’s a great value. The arugula salad was a light, fresh starter.
The pizza did take about 30 minutes to come out, but the cozy ambiance and attentive service more than made up for it. Our server checked in often and kept our waters topped off. The restaurant wasn’t busy when we went, which made for a relaxed experience. I also really liked the unique wall art!
Parking was a bit of a challenge on a Saturday afternoon, metered spots are limited nearby, but there’s free residential parking a short distance away.
Would definitely come back and recommend it to anyone curious about trying deep dish!

Chicago style pizza with variety of pizzas. Mostly famous for deep dish or thick crusts.
Veggie options available. Thin crusts also available. They service alcohol too.
To me food is very salty and meats were dry and not fresh.
Service was responsive and quick with very casual local atmosphere.
They accept reservation for limited indoor seating. Walk in OK.
Ramp entry with wide routes inside. Accessible.
Good for kids, meetup and small group.
Street parking and close by Safeway parking lot available.

Zachary‘s pizza is a long-standing Berkeley tradition, and I’ve been coming here for more than 20 years. This location is a bit smaller than the one on College Avenue and a little less crowded. Usually during the day it is wide open. At lunchtime, they sell slices of thin crust pizza, which is good, but they do not have individually sized deep dish pizzas like some places do. They’re deep dish. Pizza is excellent. In particular, the sauce is great. I wish they had the same crust as Little Star does, which is down Solano at the bottom, but their crust is still good. Zachary sausage is just as good as the sausage in pizza places in Chicago. A lot of people use inferior sausage, but theirs is great.

Carne pizza is highly recommended! Zachery’s special was ok. We ordered thin pizza and Happened to add anchovies, whole pizza became so so salty that we could barely eat. So be careful with toppings. But we finished the entire carne, it was so so good.

The ambience is fun. The servers were all very pleasant and prompt. The pizza was amazing. Only reason for 4 out of 5 stars is the manager was a bit strange. While we were eating, he came and took one of the chairs from our table. Then put it at the table next to us. Then he took a chair from that table and brought it to another table. Later he inaudibly asked me if I wanted more water while standing out of field of vision. I had to turn all the way around and ask him what he said. When I said yes, he walked away and started arranging another table, then told our server to bring me more water. I didn’t really care about the water that much. So, I just got a super awkward vibe from him. Why ask for our extra chair when you don’t even need it? Why sneak up on my flank and ask me questions without getting my attention first. The servers were prompt and polite though.

Amazing pizza here! My wife grew up eating here, and loves it. No other deep dish pizzas stacked up to Zachary’s. I am not normally a deep dish pizza person, but this was delicious. Not greasy or heavy. Great, tasty and fresh sauce. Fresh ingredients. The pizza is made to order; which is awesome! Expect about 20-25 min for thin crust, and 25-35 for deep dish…but def worth the wait! They have about 5 outdoor tables. Kid and dog friendly! Great vibe inside as well! We got a spinach salad, and it was lovely too. We will be back as much as we can!

Great Chicago style deep dish pizza! The salads are also very generous in size. The meatballs in marinara sauce are also very delicious. Expensive, but worth it. Fast and friendly service
