Here's what LoveFood had to say about the best fast-food restaurant in the entire state:

"Want to get your hands on the tastiest deep dish around? Any Chicagoan worth their salt will send you straight to Pequod's – a local institution that was named best pizza place in all of America on Yelp’s 2024 100 Best Pizza Spots list. This joint has been crafting sensational pies since 1970 and is famous for its fluffy, airy pan-style pizzas with a caramelized cheese crust (achieved by coating the edge of the pan with mozzarella before cooking). Topping options are kept simple; Pequod's recommends diners add no more than five for the best results."
