Lou Malnati's Pizzeria - Glendale

Very disappointed this time. Burnt crust and burnt sausage. I was bragging to friends how great it usually is .

I need to stop grumbling about the prices because I keep coming back for more, and it's totally worth it!

The pizza was delicious, but the crust was burnt once again. Usually, the crust is the best part.

The crust was so hard that I felt like I might have cracked a tooth. It seemed old or excessively dried out, almost like a rock.

My favorite pizza place. There 's no seating. Just order through the app and take it home or get it delivered. You can 't pay with a gift card on the app though. I had to call in the order and pay upon pickup. Not a major deal, it 's just easier for me to pay online and then pick it up, but that is my personal preference. I always get the Chicago Classic. Omg. Out of all the pizza I 've eaten, this easily has the best sauce. I don 't have it cut and just cut it at home. It 's deep dish pizza with a delicious crispy crust, lots of cheese and sausage. So so good. The sausage is a lean sausage so it 's not super fatty and greasy on top of the cheese. The Lou 's bruschetta is always good as well. The tomatoes are always nicely ripened, basil tastes super fresh, and there 's garlic bread rounds (they aren 't cheesy garlic bread rounds, they are like garlic toast). Their garlic bread is pretty good for what it is, but it does taste like pretty standard garlic bread. No complaints though. The other thing I always get is the Malnati salad. It 's a huge hearty salad with a sweet vinaigrette. This is my absolute favorite salad and salad dressing. It comes with black olives, mushrooms, tomatoes, Romano Gorgonzola cheese, and salami bits. They have other salad dressing options, but I stick with my favorite. The wings are decent, but nothing wildly special. They are good though, so I 'll get them if I 'm craving wings deep dish pizza. It is a lot of good though. I haven 't tried the pasta or sandwich yet. It 's on my list to try. Desserts: Skip the cookies. They were pretty hard and dry and didn 't have a lot of chocolate chips. I don 't know if that 's how they always are, but they seemed like they were a few days old, or just need to improve the recipe. I like chewy chocolate chip cookies stuffed with chocolate chips, but that 's just how I like them. The tiramisu doesn 't really have a lot of coffee flavor or a lot of mascarpone flavor. It wasn 't a dry cake but it didn 't taste like tiramisu. It tastes like a vanilla cake mostly. It wasn 't gross, just not like tiramisu.
