We are grateful and thankful for many things this holiday season. First and foremost, we are grateful for YOU. Your loyalty and patronage are the reason we love what we do and the reason we have come so far from where we started 40 years ago. We strive every day to give you the best service, food and overall experience because you deserve it. Thank you for your loyalty and for including us in your family's meal times and traditions.

Along with having the very best customers, we are also very fortunate to have an amazing staff that work hard day in and day out to provide and serve our customers with the very best. Operationally, Lou Malnati's runs like a well-oiled machine because of their dedication and hard work, and we are grateful beyond measure for them. Not only do they give their all while on the clock, but they find time to volunteer and help out in the community. This past Saturday, for the second year, Lou Malnati's employees gathered at the Northbrook headquarters and helped assemble Thanksgiving food baskets for 500 local families in need. With the help of over 150 employees, these baskets will help feed families that otherwise would not have had a Thanksgving meal tomorrow. Their generosity and attitude of gratitude make us proud to work with them, side by side.

From our family to yours, we hope you have a joyful Thanksgiving filled with love, delicious food, and lots of laughs and time spent with your loved ones.

“The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional to how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation.”

-George Washington
President of the United States, 1789-1797

It has been 92 years since former President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed November 11 as Veterans Day. On this day, we recognize the members of the Military that sacrifice their lives on a daily basis for the good of our nation.  They leave behind their friends, family and loved ones to report to their duty stations and protect the United States from those that try to harm us.  Not only does Lou Malnati's stand behind these men and women, we salute you and your families for the sacrifices you all have made.  We are grateful for you and would like to thank you for your services.  Thank you for your courage, tenacity, bravery, selflessness and, above all, your dedication to your country, family and loved ones.

"This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave."
