Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria announced that its South Loop location has completed an expansion designed to elevate the guest experience.
Located at 805 S. State Street, the restaurant has expanded by approximately 2,400 square feet, bringing the location to nearly 8,400+ square feet overall. The expansion was completed while the restaurant continued regular operations.
The updated space includes a new full‑service bar, additional dining room seating, and a private events space that can accommodate up to 50 guests. The new additions create greater flexibility for group gatherings, celebrations and special occasions, while complementing the existing dine‑in experience. The South Loop location continues to offer dine‑in, carryout and delivery.
“These additions allow us to better serve the South Loop neighborhood with more ways to enjoy Lou’s,” Julie Younglove‑Webb, CEO of Lou Malnati’s said in a statement. “We’re excited to introduce these updates while staying true to the traditions and hospitality we’ve upheld for more than five decades.”
Founded in Lincolnwood, Illinois, in 1971, Lou Malnati’s is family‑owned and known for its commitment to quality ingredients, handmade deep dish pizza and genuine hospitality. The South Loop enhancements reflect that same commitment while creating a more versatile dining experience for guests.
Private events are now booking at the expanded South Loop location. More information is available at https://www.loumalnatis.com/
