  1. Did you know that deep dish pizza is only made in Illinois? Lou Malnati’s is a well-known pizzeria throughout the entire city of Chicago. Our success is tied to our commitment to quality. Every pizza is handmade from scratch using the finest and freshest ingredients. Every year, the Malnati team hand picks California vine-ripened tomatoes for the perfect sweet and tangy taste. The exclusive sausage blend is seasoned perfectly and the fresh mozzarella cheese comes from the same place which has supplied Lou Malnati’s for over 40 years. The secret to creating our one-of-a-kind pizzas involves making every pizza with a flaky, buttery crust that has been in the family for generations.
