    Lou’s was great! Food was great, service was great. Recommend preordering your pizza - you don’t wait long for it to be ready.

    Always love a good pizza at Lou's. I grew up in Lincolnwood, IL and have been having Lou's for 50 years. Glad to see it out in the suburbs too. Naperville location did it proud!

    Service was lacking. Never brought bread when asked for it. I asked what was gluten free. The waitress replied nothing was free. I asked for more water. It took 20 minutes. The pizza arrived cold. Waitress never asked how everything was. It took forever to get our bill ehen we were finished. I'm a good tipper but 20 percent was automatically added to bill. Her service was not worth 20 percent and I should be able to rectify that.

    Our server was not very attentive. Numerous times she let drinks get to empty and did not return within minutes to ask how our food was.
