December’s Salad of the Month is an old favorite – the Antipasto Salad!

Romaine and iceberg lettuce topped with Volpi salami, roast beef, provolone cheese, black olives, pepperoncini, red onions, mild giardiniera and drizzled with red wine vinaigrette dressing, topped with fresh baked croutons and Romano cheese.

Available at our full-service restaurants (excluding Lawndale) and cafés only.

Our warehouse is buzzing with activity as the holiday shopping season kicks off!

Last year, Lou Malnati’s Tastes of Chicago division shipped out over 50,000 packages in the month of December.  And what was inside those packages, you ask?  Over 145,000 pizzas!  Will there be some delivered to your doorstep this year?
