Yes, Deep Dish Pizza Is Worth the Wait.

When most people think of pizza, they picture a thin crust covered with sauce and cheese. Deep dish pizza is different. Built with a thick, buttery crust and loaded with layers of cheese, toppings, and rich tomato sauce, Chicago-style deep dish is more than a meal—it’s an experience.

At Chicago’s Pizza Kitchen in University Place, we make our deep dish pizzas the traditional way. Each pizza is baked in a deep pan, allowing us to create the thick crust and hearty layers that have made Chicago-style pizza famous across the country.

What Makes Deep Dish Pizza Different?

Unlike traditional pizza, deep dish starts with a tall crust that forms a bowl for the ingredients. The cheese goes in first, followed by toppings, and then a generous layer of tomato sauce on top. This unique construction helps create the rich flavor and satisfying texture that deep dish fans love.

The result is a pizza that’s loaded with flavor in every bite.

Made Fresh to Order

Great deep dish pizza takes time. Because of its thickness and generous toppings, it requires a longer bake time than traditional pizza. The extra time in the oven allows the crust to develop its signature texture while the ingredients blend together perfectly.

The wait is worth it.

Perfect for Family Dinners

Deep dish pizza is ideal for sharing. Whether you’re feeding the family, hosting friends for game day, or simply craving a hearty meal, a Chicago-style deep dish pizza is designed to satisfy.

Pair it with an order of breadsticks and an ice-cold drink for the complete Chicago’s Pizza Kitchen experience.
