Does anyone know if there’s a place in town that serves authentic Chicago-style deep dish pizza?
I’ve been craving it lately but I’ve never seen it on a menu in town. Thanks!!

Babycakes: So Fatte’s offers 2-for1 pizzas, but the one pizza is 40 dollars? That alone means that I’ll never go there. Embarrassingly deceptive!
The only authentic Chicago-style pizza is found in…..Chicago. If you want something close/similar/kinda like/sorta/etc., try Paxti’s on State Street. I’ve had deep dish pizza in Chicago, but the amount of cheese was a bit much for me. Mind you, I like cheese, but two-inches thick was over the top for me. For not Chicago-style pizza, Fatte’s is the place that in my opinion is theee best in SB. They advertise 2-for-1 pizza, but you’ll still be paying $40-plus for two really good pizzas. I know people love/love/love Rusty’s (and other places too), but Fatte’s got my biz from now on out.
P.S. – If you had a bad experience at Fatte’s and hate the place for one reason or another, then that was your experience….and I accept that.
Chicago-style pizza (in its full-on, authentic form), is best thought of as a casserole with a crust. I love it but it’s not for everyone.
Bettina Is good but $$$ as for deep dish good luck lol. It’s hard enough to even find a decent pie in this town.
Giodarno’s in Chicago has frozen deep dish pizza’s available to be ordered and shipped from their website. Kind of pricey, but when I had a fresh hot one in Chicago they were $35 for one. Well worth it though.
Paxti’s is the only place in town to really attempt it and it’s not very good IMO. Corner Tap recently reopened and they are serving Detroit style pizza that is absolutely amazing.
