This place is always always crowded, and the pies take 45 minutes to cook…but when they arrive, it is perhaps the best thing I’ve ever tasted. Pure heaven. I order the deep dish chicago style veggie pizza with soy cheese….and I LOOOOOVE it! These pizzas are a little pricier than the usual pizza joints, but 2 slices of a medium pizza is plenty filling and you’ll get to eat more for left over later

UPDATE
3/28/09 – ok I just yelped paxti’s to see if there were any updates before I posted this, and someone has mentioned that the soy cheese contains casein. I’ve called the store (both stores) numerous times and asked if the soy cheese and crust are vegan, so I’m not sure what to believe. I will call them again to verify….I hope that guy is wrong.

4/1/09 – verified, soy cheese is NOT vegan. However the crust and sauce is…they’re toying with the idea of bringing on an alternative cheese for vegans…nothing concrete yet. SUCKS.
