west of chicago Pizza company

I’d rate West of Chicago Pizza Company a solid 5 out of 5 stars — easily one of the best pizza spots in Seattle. The Chicago-style pizza was outstanding: rich flavor, perfectly balanced sauce and cheese, and exactly the kind of deep-dish experience you hope for. Definitely a place I’d go back to and highly recommend to anyone craving authentic Chicago pizza in the Seattle area.

4-1/2 stars, really. If you are a fan of Chicago-style pizza, this is a good one. I prefer the more buttery crust at Lou Malnati’s (in Chicago), but WoCs crust is far superior to chains like Uno’s and much better than Windy City’s crust. The sauce is well-seasoned but I would probably add provolone and more parm-regg to the cheese blend give it more saltiness and fullness. It’s counter service, you’ll have to buss your own table and get your own plate/utensils, and skip the salads altogether. They are made earlier in the day, and are served dry with a cup of dressing on the side. Even Mod Pizza takes the time to mix it in a bowl and toss it properly, and they are a lot busier. Prices are very, very reasonable which makes up for the few shortcomings.

Not sure why I haven't review this place yet. Every time I've had their pizza it has been great. The deep dish is everything I could want in that style of pizza. For the first time, yesterday, we had the tavern style thib crust and it was flavor packed. Great food, polite service and the atmosphere feels nice.

A hidden gem of deep dish pizza in seattle. Surprisingly, good deals if you know what to order.

The pizza was outstanding, its the best tavern style pizza Ive tried outside of Chicago. I did feel it was a bit pricey for the quantity (28 dollars for a 14 inch with one topping) but I guess you get what you pay for!
