    We made a reservation online (highly recommend) and we got sat immediately at our reservation time. Pizza was delicious, it took awhile just due to how busy they were but we got drinks and an app so the wait wasn’t terrible.

    First time here. We ordered a salad and wings to start. Salad was huge. Wings were just okay. We ordered a medium cheese deep dish with butter crust and it was fantastic. Should have just got a small, but wanted more than not enough. Had two slices left. Service was good. Will def come back when visit Chicago again.

    Getting seated was a fiasco. We were seated at three different tables before finally ordering. Once we were finally situated, everything was great. Food was good. Our server was attentive.

    Had the original and it was outstanding. Used the order ahead feature and saved at least 10 minutes. We were in and out in less than one hour. Great service!

    Lou’s was so delicious. But OpenTable sent us a message a few hours before our reservation telling us that we can preorder the pizza by replying to their message. Do not do that! That doesn’t work and the restaurant said they don’t receive it on their end. Just call the restaurant to preorder the pizza!

    It's awesome to have gluten free crust options, they are fairly tough and the taste has been a bit inconsistent but it's hard to really complain

    Good food and the location is great, the pizza took about 50 minutes to be served but this is pretty common and was disclosed upon ordering. Great place overall
