Used to come to this location a lot growing up, so was glad to finally visit once again. The indoor vibes are still the same, the same creaky stairs, cozy wooden colors, and classic 80s/90s sports-adjacent decor, definitely making me feel right at home! My best friend and I got large deep dish pizza, half cheese and half the Malnati Chicago classic with buttercrust. The cheese was so gooey and the warmth from the pizza was comforting after a long day. The sausage on the pizza was savory and paired well with the acidity of the tomato sauce. The buttercrust was heavenly and cripsy. Definitely one of my favorite food places of all time, they never miss read more

Make sure you have reservations for large groups. They will take good care of you. We had their thin vegetable pizza and a thin crust cheese pizza. Plus the appetizer platter. My son loved the mozzarella cheese puffs. Our server was very attentive and refilled our drinks and overall pleasant. I enjoyed our birthday party at Lou's. My son loved it as well. The only downside is that to get upstairs they don't have elevators and one of our guest recently had surgery and going upstairs was out of the question. We still had fun. Check them out. They have lots of parking too. read more

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria - Personal Large - Thin Crust Cheese - Pizza Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

Have been to all the "name" Chi town pizza places and although this place gets knocked by some my family enjoyed it. Had the "Lou" . Spinach mix (enhanced with garlic, basil & onions), mushrooms and sliced roma tomatoes covered with three cheeses on Buttercrust. Super duper duper good would order again If you like my reviews, consider "following" my profile for reviews all across the SF Bay Area . Why "follow" someone? It causes the person you follow's reviews to tier to top when you pull up a business. I find this very handy when researching venues. Rod's Review grading scale explained. Essentially I personally base it on the likelihood of a return visit and I try to be stingy with 5 star reviews since they should be "special" in my eyes. Price/Value also play a role obviously but there are $ and $$$$ littered across my grading scale. 5 stars - "I'll go out of my way" (approx 6 % of my reviews) 4 stars- "If I was in the area I'd go here and would recommend", (approx 38% of my reviews) 3 stars "Maybe if was nearby", (approx 37% of my reviews) 2 stars -"Would likely not return, Only if you want to go", (approx 16% of my reviews) 1 star -"No thanks, even if I was hungry", (approx. 3 % of my reviews) read more

This food was subpar, the ambiance consisted of the back of a RV and the service wasn't good at all, my family of 8 was not satisfied what so ever and I would rather go to little Cesar's. The deep dish tasted like cardboard. Please do NOT spend your money here. read more

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

We are visiting from out of town to see family, and our very first stop had to be Lou Malnati's. Every time we come to the Chicago area, we cannot leave without making a stop at Lou's, it's a must. We ordered the large Malnati's Chicago Classic along with the Malnati salad, and both were outstanding. The deep-dish pizza had that perfect buttery crust, layers of melted cheese, a flavorful sausage patty, and fresh tomatoes on top, exactly what Chicago pizza should be. We all had one piece and it was so filling, we had leftovers to take with us. The Malnati salad was incredible as well. The sweet vinaigrette and Romano cheese dressing was amazing and paired perfectly with the fresh, crisp ingredients. Lou Malnati's never disappoints, and it continues to be a tradition every time we're in town. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Chicago or craving true deep-dish pizza. It's our go to, favorite pizza place in Chicago. read more

We haven't had Lou Malnati's pizza in years so we were really excited to be able to visit again. We were not disappointed! This location is quaint and fun, and our server was amazing. The pizza, OMG delicious. We live on the west coast so this was a special treat for us. Highly recommend! read more

Lou's traditional pizza's are all really good. The Lou deep dish we ordered was delicious and we loved it! The butter crust was really flavorful and rustic. The fresh ripe tomatoes on top really added a nice touch. Where I was really disappointed with the speciality buffalo pizza, they more than delivered on the traditional menu listed pizza offerings. All their pizzas are really good. I think because I ordered the "buffalou" specialty the first day it was on the menu, they may have had to work out the pizza techs a bit when creating them in the kitchen. The Italian beef was excellent. The beef was so tender and they generously packed meat and peppers on the bread. Very good with the au jus on the side. In any case the pizzas are always hot, service is always very good and they follow-up with you if there's any issue with your order to make it right. Carryout area is fast and efficient. read more

This place was suggested by locals. We went early to avoid the crowd. We were seated immediately and loved the view. The waitress took over 10 minutes to approach the table which we didn't understand. They weren't busy. All 3 of us had different personal pizza's and loved them. No offer was made to refill drinks and it took a long time to get the checks. Food is great and service is mediocre. read more

The parking lot was jammed packed and I thought there would be a long wait, but our party of 5 got in almost right away. Even though we were seated by the kitchen door the coming and goings of the workers didn't disturb my family's conversation. The temperature in the restaurant was just right. The food is so tasty. The service is great. We got a free cookie w/ice cream for my birthday. What was cool the waitress wanted to know if I wanted the little bit of left overs I said yes and she put them in a separate little container to go. I definitely will go back. read more

My favorite deep dish pizza!!! This is a great place to celebrate a special event or date night! Great food and service. Our waiter was so nice and he kept checking in with us... keeping our drinks full and even putting the pizza on our plates for us... not just when we first got the pizza but also when we needed another piece. We highly recommend dining here! I cannot eat tomatoes because it causes arthritis pain for me... love that we were able to order the pizza without the sauce!!! So yummy!! read more

What is better as a Chicagoan than Lou Mal's with family that is back in town. This historic building is not your everyday pizza shop experience. It feels more like you're going over to a friend's house who is going to make you some really awesome pizza. We had reservations because we were a party of 8. Thankfully, they were able to accommodate a table on the porch due to mobility issues. There is a small set of tables inside on the main floor, but it seemed as though majority of the tables were up a flight of stairs on the 2nd floor. Our waitress got our drink orders in quickly and then we turned around and immediately ordered food. Of course, the salad came out relatively quickly, but the pizzas took at least 45 minutes to an hour (which is normal for deep dish). Our waitress and the kitchen were kind enough to accommodate the different dietary restrictions of our party. The food was exceptional. The salad was fresh and flavorful, and the pizza was hot, cheesy, and delicious flavors. You're going to feel like you've got a brick in your stomach afterwards, but boy is it worth it. read more

We have not been to this location in years and upon walking in noticed it has not changed in years. It definitely can use a refresh. We were seated immediately, but waited awhile for our waitress. She was very pleasant, but should have acknowledged the wait. We had a birthday coupon for a small cheese deep dish, and we added a salad and small thin crust veggie. The Malnati salad is one of my favorite salads and I was not disappointed. The vinaigrette dressing is so good. The pizzas were good and I appreciate the pizzas are always consistent. read more

Across the divide of Chicago deep dish pizza chains, Lou Malnati's and their butter crust deep dish pizza continues to be the gold standard and their restaurant on Roselle in Schaumburg continues to be the best location. Whenever I'm back in town, I grab whoever I can from my old crew and enjoy a slice or two at this delicious eatery. read more

My first time ever trying Chicago Deep Dish pizza was at this Lou Malnati's about 15 years ago... Ever since then, it's been a fav of mine. I love it so much, me and my family regularly orders their pizza from Taste of Chicago and always keep some in the freezer. So, whenever I'm visiting this part of Chicagoland I make a point of coming back to this location, as I did tonight. I sat at the bar, getting there a little bit before their busy period. I got there a little after 6PM, but by the time I left, there were packed. Service was decent. Tonight I ordered a small deep dish with pepperoni, jalapeños, and extra tomato sauce. It took the typical time of about 40 mins to come out, so I got their smallest salad to nosh on while I waited. Regarding their small salad, it's pretty big! Definitely shareable! The pizza came out piping hot and looking beautiful! I ordered a small, but probably should've gotten a personal size, because two slices of the small was all I needed and I was full! The topping were tasty and the peppers were spicy. Tomato sauce is excellent too! Love their crust as well. Definitely an amazing pizza... One of my favs anywhere and I also really love NY style. So, don't compare this to the NY style you might like, they're not nearly in the same category. Rather enjoy both for what they are. read more

Lou's style is definitely the best! We tried that and the classic. The crust is certainly homemade and the atmosphere is super chill. I will say, it took our waitress about 10min. to visit our table of seven tonight, but maybe the restaurant is bigger than it looks. Overall, it's a solid choice for Chicago deep dish pizza. It's a heavy slice, so don't let your eyes be bigger than your stomach! read more

This is definitely one of my favorite Chicago deep dish pizza. The flavor is just unbeatable. The only feedback about the personal pizza is that the crust is not as thick as the regular sizes. I get that the slices aren't as big, but I expected the crust to be the same texture and consistency. Overall, good service and ambiance. read more

First night on this trip and I've had my eye on this location for awhile. Staying in Schaumburg made it a deal breaker. It was a Tuesday night and busy enough. I spotted some individual pizzas but the small was the perfect size and it was the deep dish specialty with the sausage and pepperoni. Let's say every bite was remarkable. With this solid butter crust it never is sloppy yet loaded with sauce, tomatoes, and everything else. No knife and fork needed. We started with a Caesar salad for one and it's a good share. You don't want to ruin your appetite on this, and you could if you got a large. It all goes great with fresh brewed iced tea. On the way out I spotted a guy eating a flat pizza at the bar. It was rather unsettling. Those deep dishes are formidable. This was even featured on beat Bobby Flay. The guy knew he would win right out of the gate. read more

Food was good. Very good. Service fantastic. Would recommend this place. Server made sure we were happy

We ordered a 2 Chicago style deepdish pies, via DoorDash, one of them was a Gluten Free crust for my wife. This was my family's first experience with Chicago style deepdish and they enjoyed them. read more

I ordered food on their app. I ordered early so I didn't forget. I placed my order around 4:30pm to arrive at 7pm, from the Roselle Rd location. At 7:05 I receive a text my order is arriving from the Barrington rd location and that it'll be here around 7:30. Also- I ordered on Lou's website expecting their driver. Just found out they're sending via Door Dash? #failatcustomerservice #notthesamelous I am so done with this company. read more

Maybe this is a controversial opinion, by I don't think this pizza is incredible. All of the toppings end up sorta cold and undercooked which isn't my style. Besides the food, the service was very nice. Make sure you order early, or get a salad, as the deep dish pizzas take a long time to make! read more

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

Very cool atmosphere. In an old building, very homey and warm. I was surprised by how many people were there on a Tuesday night. Service was good - they told us to expect a 30-45min wait for deep dish pizza, and they over delivered and it came out in 20 or so (always under-promise and over-deliver). Salad was great, three cheese bread was good. Deep dish Chicago pizza was great, but not mind blowing. However, I haven't had much deep dish, so I maybe was hyping it up too much in my head. Regardless, it was delicious. Also very affordable, especially for big families. Overall, this was a great spot and I would eat here again when I'm back in business! read more

Lou's has always been my favorite deep dish joint because of their delicious ingredients and incredible tasting crust. We ordered two large pies and a third which was gluten free. My wife has a difficult time finding good GF crusts and Lou's, you nailed it. Everyone was super happy with how everything tasted. Service was great! Our glasses were always filled, never empty. I missed the house type, home feel atmosphere of Lou's. This brought me back to the old days and felt very nostalgic. Thank you for keeping the tradition alive and treating us well. read more

Our server, Katie D., was not very welcoming to us as we had sat there for a while (around 10 minutes) without any service and, as it was the end of the dinner rush that's expected, when we approached, there was no apology for the wait or anything. As she started taking our order, we made our drinks and food at the same time and our drink took over 10 minutes to come out and came very close to when our appetizer came out. With the drink she never mentioned that the tea was unsweetened and neglected to offer sugar packets during the order. After the appetizer came, she not only didn't check on us after we started eating it, but she also just started walking away. We had to practically yell to ask for some sugar packs which should've been asked about during the order. As our food was brought, she did ask us if we needed anything else, but it felt very short, as if she was asking by force. As a server does, she came back to ask if everything was looking good, but not after around another 10 minutes. As we finished the meal, Katie came back and asked if we needed boxes and left to pick them up. We sat for a while until a check was thrown on the table without any talking, or asking if we wanted anything else. As a younger person, it felt like she was looking down on my friend and I just because we were. I've never had a server act as though I am a lesser just for being younger. Though her service was horrid, we left a decent tip. I just hope she changes her behavior to paying customers despite their age, especially because she was much more bubbly with the huge party behind us. The food was very good, but the service was not up to par. read more

In a very cool big old house. Casual atmosphere. Smallish bar. Came for a drink and maybe a snack. Waited "a big few" minutes before anyone came to the bar. Ordered a drink and said I may want food. Got a menu and ordered a spendy side salad. Still waiting on that. Was maybe going to order a pizza to go but info says 30 min wait so if I don't get the salad soon and order, I guess I'll skip that. Salad arrived and it's huge and worth the $11. The gin and tonic was good too if a little small w lots of ice. The salad was yummy but I ordered with blue cheese dressing that had absolutely no blue cheese in it. It was very mayonnaise-y. So ok no pizza ordered. but. ..on the way out you can get frozen pizza to go so I picked up a cheese pizza and a lemon Italian ice. Italian ice was yummy and not too sweet like some. The pizza will have to be another time. I would go back but with the expectation that it would be a very leisurely dinner with friends. read more

This review is based off of ordering for take out. We ordered online and the process is user friendly. We were able to select our items easily and pay for online within minutes. You have the option to select a specific time for your order to be ready or you are also able to select the order to be prepared ASAP. We opted for a specific time and were sent an email confirmation once we placed our order. The take out building is attached to the dine in building however they are 2 separate entrances. There are signs everywhere that directed us on where to park/enter for take out orders. Our food was ready at the promise time and the process was very simple and efficient. For 4 people we ordered a regular sized Lou's salad and a medium thin crust pizza. Everything was tasty and delicious! Lou Malnati's a a must try if you're an out of towner (or even if you live here lol). All of our tummies were left satisfied and happy! This was the perfect amount of food for 4 people. We even had some left over salad, but the pizza didn't stand a chance =P read more
