Lou Malnati's eat your heart out.
Okay not better than Lou Malnati's, but considering we're almost 2000 miles away from Chicago and Lou's and I'm comparing it to Lou Malnatis and it has more stars than 0....There you go.
There's butter in the crust, which is just the perfect thickness; crisp but not crunchy, soft inside but not soggy...tangy tomato sauce, cheese on the bottom, loaded with toppings. How do you know it's Chicago Style? You can pull a slice out with a pie slicer, and the crust is firm, and the inside stays all in one piece, with little dangly mozzer-elactites. Like a blueberry pie...made of meat.
These are not just people claiming "yeah it's a heavy crust so we call it 'Chicago Style' and hope no one notices." This is not a wet gooey mess of sauce and toppings on bread. This is actually Chicago style deep dish, at it's best. Better than Giordannos in Chicago proper, if you ask me.
In Chicago, I'd give it 4 stars, since it's not Lou Malnatti's. Here? Oh heck yeah it gets 5 stars here.
Pros:
- Name of Restaurant Not a Dirty Filthy Lie. This is what Actual Chicago Style Pizza tastes like.
- Good food, good prices
- They deliver, and it's fast for chicago style. (allow 45 minutes for cook time)
Cons;
- Allow 45 minutes for cook time.
