    We were given a table next to a window on a snowy day for Sunday brunch, one of the best seats in the house. The service and food was excellent, and the two person band played appropriatel music that never drowned out conversation. Great experience overall!

    It was our first time at Louix Louis and we had a great time!! We were sitting at the bar and our bartenders/servers were amazing. They were welcoming, friendly and engaging. The bartender suggested the Louix Spritz with a shot of Casamigo Reposado and it was one of the best cocktails I have ever had..must try!! For our dinner, we ordered Burrata and Endive salad, Crab salad, Lobster Risotto and Filet Mignon, and King's Chocolate cake for dessert, all was superb!!! Great service, beautiful and relaxing ambience and superb food and drinks. Our overall experience was amazing!! We will definitely go back. This place is a must visit restaurant if you have not been. Thank you Louix Louis for an amazing night!!!

    We had a wonderful meal here after the opera. I had the Icelandic cod and my husband had the braised lamb. Both were excellent. The Hollandaise sauce with mine was light and delicious. The accompanying vegetables with both dishes were not overdone. Even the olive bread was hot and delicious. Don’t know why this great place was not full on a Saturday night. Great value for reasonable price!
