In Short
Named for the ill-fated ship in "Moby Dick," Pequod's is a mix of no-nonsense servers, neighborhood families and college couples. Hundreds of photos and graffiti cover walls, with a smattering of local sports memorabilia. The menu offers Italian standards and starters like mozzarella sticks, zucchini sticks, jalapeno poppers and stuffed mushrooms. But it's the pizza, with signature caramelized cheese, sweet, flavorful sauce and generous toppings, that brings in the customers.

I have never lived in Chicago, but occasionally visit for business and/or visits with friends. I discovered Pequod's after visiting a friend in Lincoln Park and it has been my favorite pizza ever since. I've taken co-workers, friends, and family there when we've been in town. The pizza is unlike any I've ever eaten--it's the best. I don't know what else to say here, other than I've hopped in many a Chicago cab and told them to take me "near Webster and Clyburn" to Pequod's in my southern accent (I've never lived above the Mason Dixon line). That may disqualify me from judging pizza in some people's minds, but I guarantee you that if you eat a pizza at Pequod's, you'll know what I mean. It's been way too long...need to plan a trip.

Deep dish is excellent. Trademark is no crust, just burned cheese. Trust me, sounds strange, but it is excellent. Thin crust is not good, though. Is very expensive for a pizza joint. ~$25 for a large deep dish delivered.

Pequod's is a bar/pizzeria. The deep dish is EXCELLENT and has a very strong reputation. The beer selection is good as well. It's right across the street from Webster place so it's perfect to go stuff yourself fat and pizza and beer and go watch a movie while you digest slowly.
