“Will 100% be back to Dust bowl brewery just for this food truck. We loved the food here and I was so surprised to see the ratings for this place are so low. We order through and app (which made it so easy) and food was delivery to our table. We go the wings, tri tip sandwich and the pork nachos!! We are big bbq people and everything was delicious and the prizes here are great! Will definitely be back to try more items from their menu.“

“I love Zach's! The family loves Zach's! You will love Zach's too! I discovered Zachary's Chicago pizza decades ago when they were just a small little pizza place that you had to be in the know about to find it. Now, they have numerous locations, and rightfully so! Once you try their pizza, you'll never settle for anything less. We stopped by their newest location in Pleasanton, California, and I will say the vibe, but this location is vastly different than it is from the others. The food is just as great, but the vibe is more of a chill and enjoy the pizza. Parking isn't as challenging here, but it's still not great. We ordered a Caesar salad to share while we were combing through the menu to see if we wanted to try something different than our regular go to's. The salad was OK. Nothing to write home about, slightly underwhelming, and the croutons were rather disappointing. Since everyone was in starvation mode, we ordered two pies, and went with our classics. The thinly sliced cheesy pizza with lemon is an absolute must try. The cheese was gooey, and there's something about the combination of the flavor of the squeezed lemon over the cheese that just makes all the flavors pop. Yes, I thought it sounded strange when I tried it years ago, but I've been a fan ever since . Then there is the deep dish... Keep in mind that the deep dish does take longer to bake so be prepared to wait. The deep dish is simply divine. We ordered the deep dish with sausage and added pesto, and my mouth is watering just thinking about how delicious the pizza is. The crust is perfect, and the layers of flavor, sauce, meat, cheese. It literally is a slice of heaven. Diner tip: if you know you're going to order a Zack's deep dish, you can call ahead and they will start the prep so that there's less wait time. The wait staff was pretty friendly, but truth be told I miss the vibe of the original location. The original location has these cool posters on the wall, everyone's running around because they are so incredibly busy and food is being served left and right. It feels like a New York experience in a very pleasant way. If you're looking for a more relaxed version of that, this is your place. Great food and a great experience!“
