    Wonderful breakfast/brunch venue. Obviously a neighborhood spot based on the mix of diners who were there on a Sunday. Not a budget place to eat, but rather a high quality restaurant with excellent service and food!

    Everyone was nice and food was great. Perfect place for friends, family, fun, and events. Bottles of water will throw you off a bit though. We enjoyed the Mimi Tower, Lost Weekend Skillet, Chicken and Waffles.

    Our favorite date night spot! Our server always makes us feel special, and whatever we order is always fantastic. I tend to get a fish entree because they do fish better than anywhere else I've been, but you can't go wrong with a pasta dish or the lamb entree. I got the bucatini this time and it was entirely too delicious. I think I finished it in 15 minutes, which is a feat for me as it was a full serving of pasta. We always end by splitting the chocolate hazelnut tart dessert - it never disappoints. The edge of the covered patio gets pretty cold when it's snowing, but the internal patio is heated well.

    My family & I met for dinner before going to a theatre down the street and Emma did a fantastic job taking care of our table. Emma new we had a time restriction, and she made sure everything was brought to our table on time. The deep-dish pizza was so good! Highly recommend Lou's!
