Lou and his wife Jean opened the first Lou Malnati's Pizzeria on March 17, 1971. Loyal patrons lined the streets on opening day for a taste of his delicious deep dish creations.

Every Lou Malnati’s pizza is handmade from scratch using the finest and freshest ingredients. Every year, the Malnati team hand selects California vine-ripened tomatoes for the perfect sweet and tangy taste. The exclusive sausage blend is seasoned to our exact specifications. The fresh mozzarella cheese comes from the same small dairy that has supplied Lou Malnati’s for over 40 years. And their family’s secret recipe for flaky, buttery crust has been passed down from generation to generation.

You’ll know with every bite that each pizza was made with care and special attention. Try some today!
