It appears that Pequod's is an acquired taste. Either that or they made the worst pizza in their history the night we ordered a pizza to be delivered to our apartment. I love pizza. I mean I…

Holy cow! If I could give this place more stars, I would. I stumbled across this pizza a few months ago. My friend was touting it as "world famous". I've lived here my whole life and had never heard…

By far, the best chicagoland pizza place because of their nontraditional crust. For all the suburban folks, another pequod's pizza hidden in the streets of Morton Grove. Good eats and great…

As a New Yorker, I am obviously biased (or just a better judge?) but for what I consider more "pie" than "pizza", the carmelized crust does taste pretty damn good. The sauce is also better than at…

I loved Pequod's! I like Deep Dish but every once in a while I don't want it! Now I have found the better half! The thin crust is not TOO thin. Which I love. Filled with pepperoni & pepperocini's…

Pequod's kicked off the first round of the "Pizza Challenge" at my place of work, and the general consensus was that this restaurant should either come in dead last or should not even qualify for…

Let's put it this way: I love Lou Malnati's. I haven't been to Lou's since I found Pequod's.

I don't care how good a place is. With very few exceptions, there is NO restaurant worth waiting more than an hour to sit down at, especially when you're packed in like sardines with throngs of…

Pequod's doesn't deliver to me. So this is what I do: I wait 20 minutes for the #74. I take a 25 minute bus ride. I walk down Clybourn to Pequods. I pick up my pizza. I walk up Clybourn. I wait…

Being from Boston, I've always loved New York style (thin) pizza... But this is BY FAR my favorite pizza EVER. I LOVE THIS STUFF. I tend to get just extra cheese on mine, because I feel that any…

The green pepper & onion deep dish from Peaquod's is my favorite deep dish pizza ever. And I hate veggie pizzas. Anywhere else I'd be eating plain cheese, or loading it up with meets. But for some…

Nice pizza, nice people. I wonder if reviews are necessary after 100 have been drafted. It is a nice palce for a bear and a slice!You can get by here for less than $10/person, but not with drinks.

I'm a fan of Pequod's deep dish pizza, but the staff could use a little sunshine. I trekked through snow, slush and traffic to find the restaurant empty, aside from one guy working there. The time was…

This pizza is really good with beer- salty sauce, lots of dough and the caramelized crust all go great washed down with a pint of something. That is why most of my memories of pequods involves…

The pizza sounded good in theory - caramelized cheese on the edge, deep dish, lots of sauce and toppings. It was October 2005, the night that the Sox beat the Angels to win the ALCS. Living in…

Some people just don't like caramelized cheese. I've been to Pequod's more than just a couple times, and I have to say, I'm a fan of the caramelized cheese concept. SOMETIMES I've had them burn the…
