Gerardo was AMAZING !!
My friends and I are first-time visitors to Chicago, and from the moment we started planning our trip, everyone kept telling us we absolutely had to try Lou Malnati's Pizzeria. So of course, we made it a priority—and it did not disappoint!
We came in for an early dinner, and since we were a group of 6, we were a little worried about waiting. But we got lucky—there was no wait time at all, and we were seated right away. That was a great start to the evening.

Best deep dish Pizza I've had in Chicago. Be patient it may take a minute. Make sure to get it well done. Deep dish takes time.

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria offers a friendly, family-oriented atmosphere with a traditional pizzeria vibe. The staff is generally helpful and attentive, although some experiences with service can vary. Many customers recommend trying the delicious deep dish pizza, which is noted to be different from other Chicago deep dish pizzas. Guests appreciate the option to pre-order while waiting for their table, which helps reduce the wait time for pizza, often taking up to an hour to make. The menu also features calamari, Malnati salad, and wings, alongside a solid local beer selection. The chocolate chip pizza remains a must-try for dessert. Some guests enjoy the bruschetta as an appetizer, rating it a 10/10. There are gluten-free options clearly labeled for those who need them. While the food is often praised as amazing, some customers mention that the atmosphere can be loud. Overall, the quality of the food is considered worth the price, with many noting the freshness of the toppings and the cheesiness of the pizza.
