It was very busy. We were seated quickly upon our arrival. The staff were very busy and it took a while for place settings and water. Also waer refills were very slow and needed to ask multiple times. We were told timing of pizza which was acceptable for how busy they were (45 minutes) We ordered appetizers and salads which allowed us to be eating something while we waited for pizza.

We had a great time. Our spinach pizza was delicious, as always. I'm not sure of the name of our server -- the receipt says "Juanjo U" -- but he was excellent: very friendly and attentive and kept us informed of the status of our order.

Lou Malnati’s original restaurant in Lincoln wood. The customer service couldn’t have been better as we were delayed past our reservation and the management was understanding, pleasant, and accommodating…saving our reserved table.70th birthdays celebration having also dined with Lou’s for 50 years! Food was delicious as we hoped and expected.Service was friendly and very attentive. We were even treated to birthday desserts! Couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable reunion with Malnatti’s to celebrated landmark birthdays.

Lou’s is always a favorite! The Malnati salad was delicious as ever and the deep dish pizza was cheesy happiness! We got there early and we were glad we did! It was a busy night, but our server was attentive and amazing. A good treat for a cold night!

Love Lou’s and it was excellent. Wrote that we were celebrating a birthday and they didn’t read that note from the OpenTable reservation or do anything to acknowledge the milestone birthday. Disappointing that I had to point it out to them and then it took too long and we had to leave.
