    Food was great service was good! And friendly! First time going to Lou’s in Evanston I’ve been to other ones, I know the pizza takes a long time, but the salad and wings took a long time to come out as well as appetizers so a bit slow but that’s the only complaint still worth the wait!

    Great place for Chicago Deep Dish. Atmosphere was good. Pizza was phenomenal. Oddly, they only had two servers working, so that was tough in regard to getting refill, etc.
