This is not the Lou Malnati's pizza I used to eat in Elk Grove Village in the 70s and 80s. The pizza sauce on the deep dish was tasteless and undercooked. The crust had no body and was too flakey. Good cheese and mediocre sausage. I wasn't sure it was Italian sausage.
The service was very good and the house dressing salad was tops.
Don't get me wrong, the pizza was okay. Just not the original five-star pizza in my memory. I am sure the waiting lines will soon dissappear. Try it and judge for yourself. Maybe my memory is just failing.
