"Yelp recently gathered data from its site to compile a list of the top 25 pizza chains in America, and Lou Malnati's claimed the top spot, beating out California Pizza Kitchen, Rosati's, and other fan favorites. The historic Chicago-based chain is known for its authentic deep dish pizza, which comes loaded with gooey mozzarella cheese and a signature chunky sauce."
"Lou Malnati's was founded in 1971 by its namesake owner, who worked in Chicago's first deep dish pizzeria before opening his own restaurant in Lincolnwood with his wife Jean. Malnati perfected his classic, buttery crust over many years, and the secret recipe is still used by the restaurants today. The chain has also been sourcing its cheese from the same Wisconsin dairy for over 40 years, and all of the tomatoes are specially canned at California farms."
