This was the best pizza I have every had. We had The Malnati Classic. The whole Pizza was covered with sausage. It was so great we ordered 4 frozen Pizzas to take home to Overland Park Ks. I would recommend this Pizza to everone.

If pizza is on our mind, this is the place. They have the best pizza around. The service is great, and we love the other food offerings. A great place for kids. It was once a Naperville Fire Station.

Have enjoyed this brand for years going back to the original UNO's in Chicago. Was very excited when I learned there was a Lou's in Naperville. However this branch does not meet the standards associated with the name. Pizza was a poor imitation. Used to the wait time for the quality expected, but this didn't come close. Service was substandard... More

When my son and friend from college said they wanted a "Chicago Pizza" before they left town, Lou Malnati's, without a doubt was the choice. The Naperville restaurant is very lively and on the loud side; which is ok. It is very family oriented and fun. And, yes, the pizza is great.

On our way to O'Hare, this Naperville location was the best stop during our Illinois visit. We ordered a classic deep dish sausage pizza and a vegetarian deep dish with butter crust plus the small family salad. The salad was huge and delicious. The server said the sausage was patties, but unfamiliar to me, the pie was literally a solid... More

Driving around Naperville we decided to try this place because they had fantastic reviews even though my wife loves Giordano's. They offer to take your order while you wait which is always nice. We tried the "buttercrust" deep dish pizza and I really couldn't tell any different from a regular crust. It had good taste but nothing spectacular. I also... More

I have to say that this is one of my favorite pizza places now and so worth the 1 1/2 hour drive! We meet our kids there -- they are near Dekalb and it looks like many families like to go there on Sundays! There were many big groups and tables with families. The service was excellent and the pizza... More

Probably not the healthiest salad you will ever eat. But wow, great flavor! Most in the our party of 8 enjoyed the pizza, I found it lacking flavor. They highlight a butter pizza crust that I found to be average. The pizza sauce highlights the tomato flavor but lacks any character beyond it. There is really nothing creative in the... More
