We really like Lou Malnati's. Our favorites are the deep dish spinach pizza (which we now make vegan by getting it without cheese), and the house salad. We ordered from here to be delivered to Great Wolf Lodge. Our order was accurate and came in a reasonable amount of time. read more

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria - Thin crust cheese and sausage pizza - Pizza Near Me - Gurnee, Illinois

One of my favorite pizza places. This gem is located in Gurnee just off of Grand Ave at the end of a plaza. The deep dish cheese and sausage pizza is simply delicious and then you can add the hot honey sauce and that adds some additional intense flavor. Their house salad is with signature dressing is a big hit in our home as well. This is not a dine in location only pick up. The staff is friendly as well. It's a pretty hot spot for pizza night. read more

If you Iove cheese this is the place to go. My pizza had so much cheese I couldn't swallow it. The sauce was not good either. If your craving pizza find another place. read more

When you're craving Chicago deep dish or pan pizza, let's be honest -- you're expecting a solid cheese pull and a rich, satisfying flavor. This pizza didn't deliver either. I ordered the Mike's Hot Honey pizza with pepperoni, sausage, and hot giardiniera. It sounded great, but the execution fell flat. There was barely any cheese pull, and the overall taste just didn't hit the spot. Not terrible, but definitely underwhelming -- especially for the price. Was hoping for something more memorable. Unfortunately, this wasn't it. read more

What a bunch of mendacious trash Lou Malnati's is feeding their "customers. Once a prominent restaurant figure in Chicago. Now the company has fallen on nefarious practices feeding off the natural nature of Chicagoan's thirst for a quality pizza. The pizza I received yesterday suffices the ownership of Lou Malnati's I guess!?! Let me show everyone what I received yesterday. Pictures don't lie. Dish of bread. Quality 1/10 bread read more

Heard from lot of folks about one of the best places for Deep dish Chicago style pizza so reserved the place for a small event. Directions/location was easy. Good sized parking and was quite full but there were still good amount of spots left. We ordered cheese, pepperoni, sausage - three varieties of pizza, pasta with marinara sauce and Malnati's salad. They served around one slice of pizza for each person asking to choose from one at a time. Salad was the best. Pasta was ok and pizza was nice ! Maybe I had high expectations, it was fine but nothing that I loved it and would come back to Chicago to have it again. It was just good to try the famous joints of Chicago with an average taste. read more

Was visiting from NC for a second time. We wanted our kids to try it since we loved it last time. They never disappoint and the whole family loved it. read more

Wonderful pizza. Growing up and living in Chicago I was a long time customer at Lincolnwood restaurant. Was thrilled when the store opened in Gurnee. read more

Tried this place based on a few decent reviews, but was really let down. There's no seating at all, so be prepared to wait outside or in your car. It took over 40 minutes just to get a small pizza, and when it finally came out, it tasted like something out of the freezer aisle -- definitely not fresh. Overall, it was a really underwhelming experience and not worth the time or price. read more

I recently ordered Lou Malnati online for delivery. Let me say, they have the best customer service ever. Our pizza arrived with sauce and cheese that slid into the box, which was not appetizing. I called the restaurant and spoke to the manager, he assured me a new pizza would be sent. It was more about how the door dash driver transported the pizza. The second pizza arrived hot and fresh. It was so good and tasty and cheesy. I would definitely recommend this place if you are in the area and know that they value their customers. read more

Delivery, 12.23.23 Ordered via the Lous direct website for delivery. Large, butter-crust, well done, sausage and mushroom. The pizza was delivered, and it was leaking through the box. When I opened it, all of the toppings had slid off to one side. I contacted the restaurant and spoke with a very kind manager who explained that they are using Door Dash for deliveries because they're having trouble hiring drivers. Okay. He also offered to have the pizza remade and resent. I appreciated that. Unfortunately, the second pizza didn't come in much better shape, despite having a "handle with care" sticker on it. I didn't call and complain a second time because it's not going to make a difference, obviously. The manager did the right thing. Unfortunately, both pizzas came in poor condition and leaking through the boxes. Beyond that, there was something off about the flavor. It was very acidic, and not tomatoey, like, vinegary. I'm disappointed because I love Lous. I grew up on lous. We moved to this area earlier this year and this is the first time we've ordered lous, and I had a serious taste for it. I can't say that I trust ordering from this location unless I'm picking it up. Thanks for trying to the manager, I know they're navigating how to handle a driver shortage. Looks like door dash isn't the solution. read more

Pizza and service is always good here. Staff is friendly and my order has always been accurate.

Would not recommend. Had deep dish half spinach, half sausage on 8/21. Sausage tasted funny, seemed undercooked. By 5am next morning I was sick as a dog. My wife was fine. She ate the spinach side only. I am in the food industry so I tried to contact Lou Malnatis via their email contact site. Twice. No response outside of their "Thank you for contacting us, we be responding asap" I didn't ask for anything, I just wanted to let them know they had bad sausage. NO RESPONSE AT ALL!. Now that's poor service and dangerous. So at this point, I would never go back or recommend them. BTW, I spoke to some who ate there the same day, had sausage and got sick. Sad that such a good brand name has gone bad. read more

Lou malanatis is boss. For me as a native Chicagoan, there's nothing left for me to say on that. This particular location has great service, fast and efficient, just how it should be. Unfortunately, I can't really speak on ambiance because we called in order for delivery so there's that. I can honestly say that I've never had bad service here and the pizza is always consistent, it's delicious. My typical order consist of The Lou with some added sausage and it's just so darn good! Whether through delivery, dine in or pick up, it's so yummy! Cheese is melty, the tomatoes, onions and garlic are robust, the sausage is spicy but not too spicy and spread out amongst the entire pie and well, the buttered crust...that's just a slice of heaven and this is coming from a girl whose not a big crust fan. If you know, you know. Overall, this place is great and whether you're a local or not, I highly suggest coming to Lou Malnatis and trying out their pizza. It's definitely slice of heaven...Chicago style! read more

I am going to stick with Chicago on this one. Not the best I've ever had. Could have gotten mikes for much cheaper. Or Giordano's pizza for the same price but better tasting to me. read more

It was okay if you like deep dish. I'm not a huge fan but their salad was really good.

Not sure why this place doesn't have a higher rating. I had a great experience here recently. This pizza is the best in America in my opinion, and yes I've had pizza in many different states. Love having one of these in Gurnee! read more

when we were eating the meat lovers deep dish it was completely under cooked. If I could give it a 0 I would but I can't so I give it a one. Might get food poisoning. read more

Not as good as it was before the change in ownership. No more hot bread while waiting for pizza. Pizza was burnt.

Not the same as fresh not even close. This was the second time I picked up a frozen pizza and it was smothered with cheese. Way too much. Not doing it again! read more

We ate Deep Dish Pepperoni. There were 4 of us and it was the perfect amount. The sauce is so good. Ive had a lot of pizza but nothing like this. read more

DO NOT ORDER DELIVERY!!! The pizza arrived and it looked as if it was held sideways. All the sauce was on one side of the pizza. The Gluten free crust is also just cardboard and rubber. read more

We ordered a small deep dish pizza and a salad with their Caesar dressing. The pizza wasn't really a deep dish it was more of a shell that held the pizza ingredients that we ordered. My husband and I grew up in the Chicago area and have had many deep dish and also thin crisp pizzas. I'm sorry to say that this pizza was not very good and we were so disappointed with our meal. read more

This tastes exceptionally good for just being a satellite / takeout location. You'd be hard pressed to tell me it tastes any different from the location downtown. Great service and surprisingly accurate on pick up times. I wish they'd put their sauces on ubereats because daddy needs some rizzzanch with his pie! read more

I always order from this store for delivery. The Management there is so nice. If there are ever any problems, they do whatever they can to make it right. The service is top notch and I have to give a shout out to the manager Rob. read more

When they first opened in Gurnee, they were amazing. I'd frequently order pizzas and wings. Recently, it seems they've gone downhill. They don't mark the boxes of gluten free pizzas as GF anymore making it hard to differentiate at times, their pizzas are soggy, and their "manager" Jacob is like a deer in headlights anytime there's an issue. I've had an issue with my last four or five orders--from getting a pizza where all the sauce and cheese was on one side and dripping out of the box to continuously giving me the incorrect salad. I'm wondering if they recently changed their gluten free distributors because both their thin and deep dish GF are disgusting, soggy and leave an aftertaste now. It's disappointing because they were so amazing. read more

Uncheesy Cheap Ordered a Thin Crust Create Your Own with multiple toppings. Could barely detect any cheese, mostly tasted sauce and the additional toppings. What's a pizza that skimps on cheese? Some places cheap out by using poor quality cheese, but lots of it. LM's seems to be cheaping out by scrimping on the amount of cheese. And had to decline the uncut option. But it's not really an option, now all their pizza come this way by default. Really? Cheaping out again to save on labor or going all trendy TikTok pull apart? read more

Love how the pizza has the same taste no matter what Lou's you go to this pizza is gonna hit the spot.
