jpmcwjr, Yes, both are still around, still serving original deep-dish. I used to eat at Due's often with my wife (she was my girlfriend then). I liked it better than Uno's. But it's a hassle to go downtown, find parking, and put up with less-than-best customer service.
Lou Malnati's has been my go-to place since it opened in 1971, in Lincolnwood, near my home. I remember meeting and talking to Lou, himself, in the early 70s.
We order almost weekly for delivery; it's the best.

When in Chicago I OD on Vienna Beef hot dogs. Not wanting to start a word war with NYC Nathan's aficionados, I'll refrain from saying Vienna's are the best dawg in the country. They are though. 
Pretty much this sums up the food where I live and my feelings about it:
EVERYTHING here is fried chicken, and everything is bland as hell. Like, how do you make even dessert taste like cardboard?
And somehow, despite the bland ass food, they consume enough of it to be one of the leading states in the USA for adult onset diabetes and obesity.

I had some incredible barbecue at a truck-stop off I-20 on the way to Birmingham.
Birmingham/I-20 is North Alabama, that's practically like a whole different state from Lower Alabama.
