    Income here because for not much more money than most other places you get amazing attitude-less service and impeccable quality standards. That said, $30 for a plate of Eggs Benedict might include a more generous amount of potaotes and perhaps even include a small side salad of frisée with sauted lardon and melted Gruyère on baguette. Just sayin.

    We were celebrating an anniversary made all the more special from the wonderful service we received from Melanie and the rest of the staff at La Plume. Upon arriving we received a complimentary glass of champagne and a handwritten card on behalf of the staff congratulating us on the occasion (lovely touch). The overall experience was un-rushed but attentive and the food was terrific. Enjoyed a great bottle of Bordeaux with our meals (wine was half off after 9 PM). We will definitely return.

    12/10! LOUIX LOUIS is a true gem! The food was excellent, and the chic ambiance made the whole dining experience feel so special. The drinks are absolutely amazing, but the highlight for me was their signature cocktail, Pink in the City 🙌🏻 it’s absolutely to die for! The King’s Cake Slice is totally worth it. Perfect spot for a night out. Mariam who served us was amazing. Highly recommend!
