In 1995, Lou Malnati’s Lawndale opened with the goal of helping to rejuvenate the neighborhood and serve the residents of Lawndale delicious pizza, of course! We promised to give any profits from the store back to the community to benefit children’s educational and recreational programs. In 2011, the Lawndale restaurant turned its first profit, and as promised, the money was donated back to the community.

Today, 25 years after the opening of Lou Malnati’s Lawndale, we’re continuing to give back to the community, while serving the residents of Lawndale. In addition to giving back, we have partnered with the Lawndale Community Church to create a job-training program for residents of the church’s recovery program, Hope House, to get them back in the working world.

We love being a part of the Lawndale community, and we’re looking forward to many more years of giving back!

Happy 25^th Anniversary, Lou Malnati’s Lawndale!

AMERICA’S DAIRYLAND IS ABOUT TO GET EVEN CHEESIER!

This December, Lou Malnati’s will make Fox Point, a suburb of Milwaukee, home to our first Wisconsin location.

The pizzeria will be located at 8799 N Port Washington Road in the Riverpoint Village Shopping Center. The 2,000 square foot space does not include a dining room, but will offer carry-out, delivery, and drop off catering services for hungry fans.

Those hungry fans can expect the same delicious pizza and top-notch quality and hospitality Lou’s has been famous for since 1971.

In addition to serving up delicious deep dish pizza, we believe in becoming engrained in the communities we serve through community involvement and partnerships. We are excited to continue this tradition of generosity through fundraising and youth incentive programs to local schools, a generous donations program, and working with local charitable organizations.

Lou Malnati’s Glenview opened to the public on May 7, 2019, but we celebrated the opening with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 30.

Chief Operating Officer Jim D’Angelo, Interim President Heather Stege, District Manager Bill Sullivan, and General Manager Mick Milliken were joined by Glenview Chamber officials and ambassadors for the event.

After the ribbon was cut, the crew enjoyed a celebratory slice (or two!) of our legendary deep dish pizza!

We are proud to serve the Glenview community from our new location at 3120 Glenview Road, open Monday-Thursday at 4pm and Friday-Sunday at 11am, offering carryout, delivery, and catering services.
