Lou Malnati's Lou Malnati's has several locations. Luckily, one is just a few blocks from our hotel. Good thing we didn't make a long drive for this one. All four of us thought it stunk!
Starting with the Stuffed Spinach Bread, it looks so damn good, especially when you cut it open and the cheese oozes out. There was no spinach flavor though, just green stuff that looked like pesto mixed into the not-so-great processed cheese. The shell/crust, whatever you want to call it, was hard and crunchy.

I agree, Lou Malnati's is absolutely terrible. I wish the national media would stop giving it so much coverage, because all the tourists go there now, and come away hating deep dish. |

That sucks, when things look good and end up tasting bad. At least your other meals were good! |

what a bummer! i'm sorry it was disappointing, but i'd be remiss if i didn't say that the dessert looks amazing. :) |

I LOVE Lou Malnati's. I look for excuses to go to Chicago just to eat there. It's a different kind of pizza than most are used to. I guess its a personal preference thing. |

Anonymous, I'm pretty sure no one would've loved what we got at Lou Malnati's but given the number of locations they have, it's possible that some are better than others. I would never go again though. |

I have to say Eddie and I really liked the pizza there. My best friend from high school and her bf were there with us and liked it as well. However, they did tell me that the quality varies by location so it's possible it might have been that. |

Taste memory, this was our worst meal in Chicago but I shouldn't complain since the rest was pretty enjoyable. |
