About Lou Malnati's Pizzeria Considered the oldest family name in Chicago pizza, Lou Malnati's is as rich in history as its pizza is in flavor. Lou Malnati got his start in the 1940's working in Chicago's first deep dish pizzeria. He took his pizza expertise to Lincolnwood, a northern suburb of Chicago, where he and his wife Jean opened the first Lou Malnati's Pizzeria on March 17, 1971. Lou was known for his fun-loving character as well as making Chicago's best pizza. Loyal patrons lined the streets on opening day for a taste of his delicious deep dish creations. Lou always thought it was funny that an Italian should open a pizzeria in a Jewish neighborhood on an Irish holiday.

Worth the 15 minute drive

Every time I have a family gathering and pizza is the main focus, I go pick up the best deep dish pizza (aside from Gino's) within 30 miles of Carpentersville. We also love their pasta salads.

Deep Dish @ It's best

Not real crazy about their thin crust, but the Deep Dish is VERY GOOD. The service is just ok. Small bar with poor service. The place is always crowded, so maybe you should not pay much attention to my review.



We have been to other Lou Malnati's locations, and loved them. This place just seems kind of ???



Try it. I know you will like the Deep Dish Pizza.

Good deep dish pizza

This is a new restaurant in Crystal Lake, so it is clean, and friendly. They have a very good deep dish pizza.
