A Chicago Original
Handcrafted Tradition. Legendary Flavor.
For more than 50 years, the Malnati family has been perfecting Chicago’s deep dish tradition in their pizzerias—built on quality ingredients and time-honored recipes. What started in Lincolnwood, Illinois in 1971 continues today, still driven by family, pride, and true Chicago spirit.
Our Pizza
What’s So Special About Lou’s Pizza?
We’ve stayed true to the original Chicago-style Deep Dish pizza recipe that Grandpa Malnati helped create in 1943 at Chicago’s first Deep Dish pizzeria. Our signature Buttercrust™, vine-ripened California tomatoes, Wisconsin mozzarella cheese, and exclusive sausage blend continue to deliver the unmistakable flavors that set us apart. Baked to perfection and served with the same loving care that’s been part of our recipe from day one.

Throwback to November 14, 2013: To nobody`s surprise, Jon Stewart went on a rant about Chicago deep dish pizza. The very next day, Marc Malnati fired back at the deep dish allegations... Take a look📹
But the best part came later. Jon invited Marc on the show to make deep dish and after one bite, even he admitted that Lou Malnati`s was the real deal🍕
On a day centered around women who raised us, we’re especially thankful for the moments you all share with us🥂
From our family to yours, have a wonderful Mother’s Day!
