    Lou Malnati’s never disappoints. Great deep dish and excellent salad. Tabitha as always was very helpful as our bartender and server. This is a staple for us.

    Service was great! Food was really disappointing. We went for a birthday dinner and I wanted to see the hype as we have had Giordanos and loved it. The bruschetta had no balsamic which typically it should, the combo platter was sub par and the zucchini was under cooked. The pizza, well, just wasn’t impressed at all. Not the thick cheese layer we expected, crust was pretty hard and tasted old, just all around not that great. :( to some they may love it, or maybe it was an off night. But the server was great!

    Pizza was not served hot enough. May have set out too long before served.

    BJ, our waiter, was very attentive and the booths spacious. I could not believe how big the portions were. My salad was huge.
