Lou Malnati's Pizzeria

Excellent pizza . Ordered "The Lou." Their salad was ok. Too crunchy with bacon bites for me though. Great service. Make sure to order your pizza while you wait for a table!

A favorite since childhood Lou knows how to dish up the deep dish . Never disappointing, great toppings, great atmosphere. A must visit place for great deep dish pizza .

Lou Malnati’s has been serving the city for decades. It's all about with the signature “Lou,” topped with spinach , mushroom and sliced tomatoes . Get it with the buttercrust and thank us later. Read more

Deep dish pizza ! That's it and that's all you need in the classic Chicago pizzeria . Butter crust , loaded with sausage and cheese . It's a must try for real Chicago style pizza !!

The house salad was fresh. The pizza was delicious! Meaty, cheesy. The crust was crispy . The service was excellent.

This is the best pizza in Chicago . I recently moved to Milwaukee and it is very difficult to fight the cravings.

This is the original location but no tourists . Avoid long lines by arriving within 2 hours of opening or closing. Pre-order to get seated fast & pizza faster. Must get the buttered crust !

Great pizza , get the butter crust . Ask to be seated in Nick's station. The man knows how to care for his clients.

The best place to meet up with friends and the most authentic chicago deep dish there is!

Order your pizza before you go. Pizza is good but takes 45 mins to bake. Order ahead of time so you don't have to wait at your table

Their deep dish pizza is heaven in every bite

The pan pizza is great...I recommend getting the buttercrust . For dessert , get the warm pan cookie .

I went for a business lunch and as other times I think is more a preference thing really. I don't want to say the pizza was meh 😐, but the thing is that I am not crazy about deep dish pizza .

The Lou was good. The tiramisu was the bomb, best ever!

Get the buttercrust . Also, get the house salad (family style ) with the sweet vinegarette.

Buttercrust - there's a difference. Reduced fat cheese - one can hardly tell. Save some calories and fat, but still keep the flavor! :)

Butter crust a MUST.. =] anyone remember the stained glass on the back wall or the old wine barrels on the wall? haha good ol days

We like to place every order of deep-dish with extra tomato sauce . This guarantees the awesome, chunky tomatoes keep up with the thick cheese and crust.

the salads are SO big! a medium will feed three!

Their crust is fantastically crisp!

Get the Mulnati salad . It's family style so share. It's absolutely fabulous.

Best pizza in Chicagoland!! Ask for it well done and un-cut!

Deep Dish Butter Crust - AMAZING!!!!

Gotta go with the Chicago Special: crumbled sausage , gooey cheese , thick sauce, and buttercrust !

Careful with parking here, ended up with someone willing to plow into us for a parking spot .

Check out the living wall here.

The whole menu is good!
