In Episode 1 of our Building Midway video series, we saw the bare bones of our new restaurant, located just outside Midway Airport, but had to imagine what it was going to become. In Episode 2, the bar is up, the bricks are laid, and guess what? We’re going to be making pizzas real soon!

Check out Episode 2 below to see the progress since our last visit.

Lou Malnati’s Midway will be a full-service restaurant and bar located at 6456 South Cicero Avenue, offering dine-in, delivery, carryout, and catering of Chicago’s best deep dish pizza from Lou Malnati’s.

Stay tuned for our next episode, where this restaurant will be nearly complete and just about ready for our early May opening!

Almost five months ago, we broke ground on the site of our newest pizzeria on Chicago’s south side, less than a mile away from Midway Airport. Today, the walls are up, the plans are laid, and we are well on our way to an early May opening!

Join us as we take a sneak peek at ongoing construction of Lou Malnati’s Midway, our newest location, at 6456 South Cicero Avenue.

Lou Malnati’s Midway will be a full-service restaurant and bar, offering dine-in, delivery, carryout, and catering of Chicago’s best deep dish pizza from Lou Malnati’s.

Heart shaped boxes of candy and flowers are great and all, but…heart shaped pizzas are way better!

The proof is in the pizza, so check out our video below where Marc Malnati drove around in a “love bug” to pass out heart shaped pizzas all over Chicago. The unsuspecting recipients sure were love struck!

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, do you know where your heart shaped pizzas are?

All Lou Malnati’s locations have 9″ heart shaped pizzas readily available for dine-in, delivery, and carryout through Valentine’s Day. Get yours today! 

Chicago Cubs Convention weekend is here!

Tickets are hard to come by this late in the game, but fans that make the trip to the convention will enjoy meet and greets with current and former Cubs players, pics with the World Series trophy (how cool is that?), panel discussions, and more!

The three-day event is at the Sheraton Grand Chicago, and guess what? The hotel is conveniently located near multiple downtown Lou Malnati’s locations!

Head to Lou Malnati’s River North (one mile away from the hotel) or our flagship location in the Gold Coast (just a mile and a half away) for a meal you won’t soon forget.

If you’re not staying at the Sheraton, check out all of our locations to see which Lou’s is closest to you! View Locations ›

All this talk about the Chicago Cubs Convention and deep dish pizza brings back memories…

Take a look at our photo of Lou Malnati and Mr. Cub himself, Ernie Banks! Those were the good old days…

So what’s it like to deliver Chicago’s best deep dish pizza?
