From Zachary's profile on East Bay Express
"Winning nearly every popularity poll, Zachary’s three locations have been packed at dinnertime for more than twenty years. Chicago-style "stuffed" pizza, with fillings between two dough layers, are the main draw, accompanied by Berkeley-style salads and good cheap wine. If you can’t handle the hour-long wait, pick up a half-baked pie to finish in your oven. Despite — or maybe because of — the ruckus, Zachary’s is a family and first-date favorite." |

Editors' pick for 'Best Pizza (Stuffed)' and Readers' Choice for 'Best Pizza' East Bay Express 2008
"Three little words that have inspired many a journey to Zachary's Chicago Pizza: spinach and mushroom.
"It's a simple combination to be sure, but one that this venerable pizzeria clearly has mastered with its massive stuffed pizza concoction, which it calls its "pride and joy."
"There are equally tasty options for more carnivorous types — think flavor-packed options like sausage or Mexican-style chorizo, as well as baked chicken toppings.
"Zachary's also offers fine salads, which help balance out all of that gooey cheese and make consuming large amounts of pizza seem somehow healthy.
"And even though Zachary's serves beer and wine, we're often drawn to the root beer-and-pizza combination.
"Best of all, Zachary's serves up pizza by the slice from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m."

East Bay Express
"If one mayor represented all of Alameda and Contra Costa counties, that person's 2.5 million constituents would live in the country's fourth-largest city. And just as these East Bay counties are very different from the rest of the San Francisco Bay Area, the East Bay Express is a very different paper. From the international populations that make Oakland and Fremont so dynamic, to the ideological diversity that separates Berkeley from the bedroom communities to its east, these cosmopolitan readers are united by a willingness to endure the East Bay's high cost of living because they want to live here. (As opposed to San Francisco.)
"From its authoritative cover stories; to in-depth local reporting, arts and dining coverage; to the area's most comprehensive weekly calendar; the East Bay Express has been this vibrant region's leading voice since 1978." |
