Love Lou’s and it was excellent. Wrote that we were celebrating a birthday and they didn’t read that note from the OpenTable reservation or do anything to acknowledge the milestone birthday. Disappointing that I had to point it out to them and then it took too long and we had to leave.

Lou Malnati’s is justly well-known for its iconic take on several varieties of “Chicago style” pizza. We had personal sized pizzas which we could customize to our tastes and they were delicious. The ingredients were fresh, the crust was nicely crisp while the deep dish elements of sauce, cheese, and vegetables and meats were richly flavored. Our server was very attentive and friendly. And the Lincolnwood location had parking!!
