"Windy City Pie is no Seattle newcomer, but when their permanent location opened this year, it became the best place to eat deep dish in the city. The crust on their pizza has perfectly-caramelized edges, the sauce is flavorful, and the toppings are excellent whether you order your pie with shaved brussels sprouts or crunchy candied bacon. If you’re dining in, you can order your pizza in advance so it’s ready right when you sit down - you don’t have to wait 45 minutes anymore. And they proudly show off some of their Chicago pride in a way that’s only a little corny, with the vintage neighborhood and World Fair posters on the walls and lots of giardiniera and Malort on the menu. They’ve come a long way from their original takeout operation where you had to text the owner and discreetly meet on a street corner to grab your deep dish." - Aimee Rizzo
