OMG best pizza ever! Do not miss going if you're in Chicago. But I warn you, it'll ruin you for pizza back home.....
Best pizza in Chicago no others match up.
The pan pizza which can also be described as deep dish has the perfect caramelized crunchy crust and the sauce is so tasty it's worth the wait to go in. Cozy restaurant with two floors and the staff was friendly.
Just as the ad says! The homemade salad is hearty and
Just as the ad says! The homemade salad is hearty and delicious, and the pepperoni thick-crust pizza (single serving photo) is fantastic--high-quality ingredients, a thick crust, and topped with perfect caramel sauce! The banana Foster cheesecake is
Not good pizza and not good service I used to be a server
Not good pizza and not good service I used to be a server so I always leave a good tip even if service is mediocre. Couldn't do that this time there was more than one incident that made me say why would I leave this guy anything feel bad cause I

If you want to try the signature taste of Chicago, I'd definitely recommend this place. Sometimes you might have to wait around 15 minutes, but it's absolutely worth it. I'd definitely go back again.
Don’t miss going here!
What a great experience! The wait staff was friendly and professional, the deep dish pizza was the best I’ve had in a decade, and quite frankly it’s the only place I’ll go for deep dish pizza in Chicago. They are nice big TVs we could watch foo

Ordered a bunch (10+) of pizzas for a large group tonight and enjoyed every pie I tried!! Had pepperoni, meatball, and cheese. All 3 were delicious. Crust was perfectly cooked, nice and crispy. Cheese was melted just right and the toppings were plen
Go to Lou Malnati's Instead, this place is heavily overrated
The very definition of overrated. I wish I could say my visit was pleasant. The reservation system would not allow me to make a reservation for more than 6 people. This was even though my party had ten people in it. I called a week prior to speak to
I enjoyed my time here with my friends.
We were served delicious dishes, generously topped, and cooked to perfection. I also loved the mozzarella sticks, and the marinara and ranch sauces are simply amazing. Excellent service, plus a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere.

Pequod's the minute we landed in Chicago! Very thankful that they still were able to take us (dine in) at 1:13 am. Our flight was a little delayed and were rushing to Pequod's! We got the 14" Large Pan Pizza with Italian Sausage, Spi

I had the deep dish with sausage and extra sauce which was some of the best pizza I've ever had.Every ingredient seemed perfect on the pizza and it was cooked perfectly. Staff were very friendly and our waiter was very professional and friendly
This is the best pizza I've had in Chicago.
Granted I've only had the chains like Unos, Malnattis, Gino's East, and Giordano's. This was far and away better than any of those. It wasn't exactly Chicago deep dish. It was more of a cross between deep dish and Detroit style ex

With a few exceptions, Pequod's is everything you've heard that it is. The service is friendly and the dining area is loud, dark, and hipster-laden. Look, the pizza is great. Crust, delicious. Sauce, terrific. Toppings, wonderful. So wh

Where to grab the best deep dish in Chicago is always a hotly contested question to ask someone, but I will stake my flag on the mountain that Pequod's is the BEST in the city hands down. Anyone who tells you differently probably just hasn'
Great service, great food, great atmosphere.
No need for a long explanation, go check it out for yourself
My turn to pick and I tried to get reservations at Pequod's
My turn to pick and I tried to get reservations at Pequod's Pizza. That failed, so I got take-out pepperoni pizza. When I went to pick it up, I learned why I could not get a reservation. Before 6PM and they were full with a crowd waiting to get
Was great!! Very delicious deep dish.
The service wasn't the best. It took 45 minutes to get our food, but it was worth it and everyone was nice. I liked the vibe and atmosphere.

Delicious deep dish pizza in a casual environment with decent service. My favorite part is the caramelized edges of the pizza with the ooey gooey cheese and perfect layers of pepperoni and sausage! So darn good!
Whether it's your first time or your 10th time Pequods
Whether it's your first time or your 10th time Pequods never seems to let me down. Iv come a few times and order a deep dish. This time around I came with my family that was visiting and I was lucky enough to have Noah really make them feel at

We were a group of 6 all dining for the first time at Pequods over the weekend. Our server was great- friendly, patient, and attentive. Our pizzas tasted pretty good...pan style so there was a lot of bread. No AC so it was extremely hot in the dinin

I was very excited about experiencing a Chicago tradition for the first time. We came around 8pm with no reservation and was able to get a seat right away. #winning!! It was very busy so we were lucky. I love the traditional Chicago public atmosp

The Pizza was awesome but it was a Saturday night and someone (another server, not ours) aggressively gave us boxes and the check. If our server needed to close us out, just tell us! We would have closed out and started a new tab at the bar. Thats so
Like they need another great review.
...Well here it is!! Man this pizza is delicious, the worst part is waiting. We had mushrooms, sausage and meatballs. It was a perfect combination for us. 4 people and there was still one slice left to fight over later. Glad we did do appetizers
Came here for dinner with a couple friends.
We couldn't pre-order a pizza but the waitress came by right away to take our order and suggested a 10 inch was good for 2 people. She said the food would take about 45 minutes but it didn't feel that long at all. She also recommended 3 t
Favorite pizza of all time.
Sauce and crust are impeccable. Worth the wait! Pro tip- make reservations because they are always busy!
Best deep dish in all of Chicago.
It was highly recommended by quite a few locals and so we came here and we were not disappointed.
Iron skillet deep dish!!!
First time experiencing Chicagos famous “deep dish” and Pequod’s did not disappoint!! The burnt caramelized crust distinguishes Pequods from the rest!! You need to eat it hot tho! And takes about 40-50 minutes to arrive at table side! Service
Zarella's thumb's up, Pequod's not so much
Tonight was a tale of 2 pizzas. We had a medium pan pizza, 1/2 pepperoni, 1/2 mushroom which was good. The crust, sauce, cheese and toppings were all good and well prepared. Unfortunately, we ordered a medium thin crust pizza with the same toppin
Meh. Not What It Was Talked Up To Be
I know this place is famous and raved about and all, but just one out-of-towner’s personal opinion, it tasted a little like 2 Stouffer’s French Bread freezer pizzas stacked on top of each other. The crust that is so well loved by many, to me was
Authentic Chicago Pizza
Great pizza, casual atmosphere. We tried both the deep dish and thin crust and both were very tasty. We came with Chicago natives and they did not oversell it.
No. 1 rankings for pizza and mostaccioli
I've been a pizza lover since the late 1940s. My parents often entertained friends on Saturday nights in our recreation hall/party room/bar/basement. They would order several pizzas from the only pizza parlor in our area--they were big on pepper
Great deep dish
The wait for a deep dish pizza can be 45+ minutes, but the wait is worth it! The crust is good but its the sauce that really shines. Salads and appetizers are fine.
Good, but not as great as my daughter said it would be
Visiting Chicago for the fourth time, I always love to go out for pizza. My daughter chose Pequods as she said it was the best, authentic pizza in town. I humbly disagree. The service was very good despite being very crowded on a Saturday afternoo
Huge Dissapointment
Worst pizza I ever had. We ordered a thin crust --BIG MISTAKE-- and my daughter said it tasted like airport pizza! No flavor at all, not a crispy crust and too much cheese. The crust was like cardboard. I wish we would have tried the deep dish, but a
Great pizza joint
I visited here after recommendation from a friend, it doesn't disappoint, it's a must visit for anyone in Chicago to try some truly great deep dish pizza, good portions of cheese and meat on the pizza, cooked very well and a lovely thick cr

Always love bringing out of towners here for a taste of the best Chicago deep dish. Careful not to get too many toppings, I find it best to keep it simple-- we got half sausage + onion and half pepperoni.
We ordered delivery.
Food was still warm upon delivery. We had medium pepperoni and large cheese deep dish, salad, mozzarella sticks and garlic cheese bread. Pizza was delicious. It was so much food we ate it for a few days after. I'd eat the pizza again. Yum.
One must acquire a taste for Chicago deep dish pizza.
Good sauce and plenty of cheese. Need to give it a try.

The best deep dish around! Service was great, ambience was perfect! Will definitely come again.
The butteriest, yummy deep dish pizza I've had.
It was a truly authentic Chicago pizza experience with a thoughtful waitress. Be prepared for a wait since the pizza is deep with caramelized edges to the point of being burnt but not so! If you want to really experience the essence of Chicago deep

Pizza was great, better than most of the other popular pizza places like Lou's or Giordano's. The place itself is old, loud and pretty crowded (we sat upstairs in the back) I'll give the pizza a 4.6 but service, speed and atmosphere about a 3.5. D
This is my absolute favorite place for deep dish.
(Even before it featured on "The Bear") I love the caramelized crust, loaded topping and perfect amount of sauce. The small is perfect for two people with good appetite. Service was prompt and they even helped us get situated at a better ta
Came by during a weekday for their lunch special.
It was pretty busy, but I was still able to be seated. The crust was so buttery and had a good crisp to it. Bummed that the lunch special doesn't come out in a deep dish pan, but it was still very good. Pepperonis were a little over charred. Even tho

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Pequod's Pizza Chicago. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Pequod's Pizza Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Pequod's Pizza Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Pequod's Pizza Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Pequod's Pizza Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
