Lou Malnati's Chicago Classic has been ranked by The Thrillist as one of the top 33 pizzas in America. The pizzeria has over thirty locations across the Chicago area. Thrillist says Lou's is serving up some of the best deep-dish pizza in the nation."Deep-dish has a tendency to ignite strong feelings everywhere," writer Matt Lynch wrote. "New Yorkers will steadfastly insist it "isn't pizza", meanwhile my brother will threaten to disown me for picking Lou's over Giordano's.

Restaurant founder Lou Malnati got his start in the 1940s working in Chicago's first deep dish pizzeria. He and his wife Jean opened the first Lou Malnati's Pizzeria in 1971. Now they're known for their virtuoso Chicago-style deep dish pizza.
