Throwback to November 14, 2013: To nobody's surprise, Jon Stewart went on a rant about Chicago deep dish pizza. The very next day, Marc Malnati fired back at the deep dish allegations... Take a look📹

But the best part came later. Jon invited Marc on the show to make deep dish and after one bite, even he admitted that Lou Malnati's was the real deal🍕

What people say

Italian restaurants are known for their delicious pizzas and Lou Malnati's on West Lake Street in Addison is no exception. What sets them apart is their signature tomato sauce, which is the heart of their iconic deep dish pizza. The sauce is generously ladled onto a bed of fresh mozzarella, creating a tangy and chunky celebration of tomatoes that is too flavorful to be hidden under a layer of cheese.

But it's not just the sauce that makes Lou Malnati's pizzas so special. Their cheese is sourced from the same Wisconsin dairy farm for over 40 years and is sliced, never shredded. This mozzarella is layered on top of the dough to provide a foundation for all their fresh ingredients, resulting in a legendary cheese pull that will leave you wanting more.

Lou Malnati's also takes pride in their crust-making process, which involves pan-prepping and crust-rising to achieve pan-crafted perfection. Whether you're celebrating Memorial Day or simply craving some saucy goodness, Lou Malnati's Italian restaurant and pizza place on West Lake Street is definitely worth a visit.
