Deep ish dish - Edit
I so loved this place. I’ve never had a deep dish before so ofc a vegan version was the first thing I looked up when I arrived and I was not disappointed! The sausage supreme was so so tasty, salty, chewy, melty and delicious we did actually manage to finish it, which we were sure we wouldn’t. The oregano is really strong but in a complementary way and, despite how big it is, the crust was crispy and not too doughy or soggy. I know people are moaning about the tent in the carpark seating but I loved it and with the heating in over the table was fine even on a November night. The staff are super nice, the food is great and it’s got a nice homey feel over all. The vegan menu is really large and I’d like to have tried one of their vegan sandwiches but yeah, after that giant mess o pizza we didn’t need to eat until dinner the next day! Awesome food and experience all over.

Fun to try! - Edit
I feel extremely qualified to write this review after ordering a medium vegan sausage special deep dish and subsisting off mostly just that pizza for the next 36 hours. I can confirm that it reheats quite well in a toaster oven! I’d also recommend reheating slices over eating them cold. I wouldn’t go out of my way to get it again, but it was a quality pie with plenty of toppings. A touch salty, but maybe a deep dish pizza should be. The vegan white chocolate chip cookie was Extremely sweet. I still ate it tho. Pizza seemed expensive at 43 dollars or so, but considering I got 5 meals out of it it’s a bit more reasonable. I’d probably take advantage of one of their weekly deals next time though

Vegan “Deep Dish” more like a Shallow Dish - Edit
VERY HAPPY that they have a Dedicated Vegan menu! I got the individual vegan deep dish pizza, which tasted absolutely amazing, but for the price, was waaaay short on the cheese. And the depth of the pizza was nowhere near what I expected. The depth was mostly so-so crust. The folks were nice, the seating out in Siberia, in a tented area in the parking lot. Meh. I will continue my search for a true deep-dish vegan pizza.

Pros: The taste of the vegan pizza, The friendliness of the staff, That they have a dedicated vegan menu
Cons: The tented seating in the Siberian parking lot, The Shallowness of the vegan “Deep Dish” pizza

Great vegan menu and options - Edit
Grew up in Chicago and loooved deep dish back in my meat/dairy eating days so love that I found a vegan option!
Read moreThey use daiya cheese, which is pretty goopy, but tastes good so I can’t complain. I wish the crust was a bit more crisp and flavorful but overall a good vegan deep dish option.

Fantastic vegan Chicago style deep dish - Edit
My Pi is a take out spot that has a couple of tables and chairs out front and a heated tent in the courtyard. They also have a small dedicated vegan menu!
Read moreWe ordered off of the vegan menu and got a small deep dish Chicago style pie with sausage and an order of cheese garlic bread. Everything was so delicious! We'll come back for more next time we're in Chicago!
While we were waiting for our pizza, some children eating candy in the courtyard said that My Pi is "the best pizza in the world." After I had had my first bite I found myself thinking that those kids might have the right idea.
Pros: Have a dedicated vegan menu, Friendly, Delicious food

Vegan deep dish!! - Edit
You can't visit Chicago without trying deep dish pizza, so we were thrilled to find a place doing a vegan version that was this good. We ordered the largest size with vegan sausage and it was a lot for two people but we managed to finish it over a couple of days. We ordered online for pickup and it was easy. The place is take-out/delivery but they do have a few outdoor picnic tables if you can't wait until to get home (and trust me, when you smell the delicious pizza you won't want to wait). Really happy this place has a menu for vegans.

Amazing vegan deep dish - Edit
I got a small vegan cheese deep dish and I loved it. I did manage to eat all but I was almost full after having three slices. I can't recall the name of the vegan cheese but it was a familiar taste and their chunky tomato sauce was so good. Also, I didn't need to use fork and knife. I was able to perfectly hold their pizza without anything spilling over. This is a takeout only establishment which I have no issues with. They have picnic tables outside and I ate there.

Chicago Staple - Edit
Finally found some deep dish chicago pizza. A little pricey but worth it to try the Chicago staple. Would definitely eat this again. Our omni friend said it was better than the regular deep dish.

Not Great - Edit
I think it's important to note, this place is take out only! They have some picnic tables outside but there is no indoor seating. Of course I always appreciate when a restaurant provides vegan options, but this pizza just wasn't my favorite. We ordered artichokes on our pizza and they weren't really cut, so you had huge chunks that were awkward to eat. Overall it just didn't taste very high quality.
Read morePros: Vegan cheese

Decent vegan options - Edit
Got a small deep dish for 2 people. Perfectly sized😄haven't had a deep dish pizza in a long time but this one was quite yummy. I think it cheese is daiya or some equivalent, so the melt factor wasn't amazing.

They have a vegan menu! - Edit
Tried the deep dish and thin crust. Both were pretty good, but I didn't like the sauce so it kind of ruined it for me.

Best vegan deep dish I’ve had! - Edit
Like others have said there’s a separate vegan menu. I got a small deep dish with vegan sausage. It was amazing and very filling! I was full after about half of the “small” and can’t wait for my leftovers. Highly recommend if you’re looking for deep dish

Delicious vegan pizza - Edit
Both thin crust and deep dish are delicious. We crave this deep dish and try to get it at least once every month or every other month, since we live on the southwest side of the city. Highly recommend! Non-Vegan friends and family love it too.

Best Deep dish! - Edit
Wow! I absolutely loved my deep dish spinach vegan special. It was fantastic! The small size was perfect for my husband and I. I can’t wait to have more. They have a whole vegan menu Including sandwiches, deep dish, and thin crust! I went for take out, but there does seem to be a few tables outside.

Great vegan deep dish - Edit
Really like their deep dish (haven't tried thin crust). The dough and sauce are both great. They have a vegan special on the menu with mushrooms, onions, green peppers, and spinach.
