My FI and I have only lived in Chicago for a couple years. We are from Texas and all of our family is traveling here from all over the south for the wedding. For our rehearsal dinner we wanted to do something Chicago style and had our hearts set on Lou Malnati's. Our wedding and everyone's hotel is in Waukegan and we just found out the closest Lou's (full service restaurant) is 45 minutes away and their party room is already booked. The hotel won't let us have them cater to one of their banquet rooms because they don't allow outside food or drinks. We could go further out and make everyone drive an hour to dinner, but I don't really want to do that. Gino's East won't do party rooms, Uno's is really expensive, and Giordano's didn't have any party information on their website. Anybody have any ideas or suggestions?!
