The service suck and the food is average. Its cold ass Shit in there. You will need to wear a coat while you eating. Like who does that! The floor is always slippery and its annoying. I ask our server is there a way that they can turn up the heat. She said that they have to alternate cause of the floor. Wish I think is dumb but whatever. I order a burger and it was okay, it was nothing to go crazy over. The only thing I like was the drinks. Other than that I won’t go back there again

Stopped here for dollar burgers on a Tuesday. I don’t usually come up this way but decided to give it a try. Up charges for toppings which is to be expected, and a drink order is required to get the dollar burger, which is fine, I was most likely going to get one anyway. Glad to see portobello for an options for the burger(veganize me captain), portions were quite small but for the price was fair. For our party of three, each one our burger orders came out incorrect. One had incorrect toppings, one was missing sauce, one was missing toppings. This was corrected but still annoying. For a dollar, you might get what you pay for. The basket of tots which on the menu is listed as ‘a little more’ actually cost $ 4.25, which was more than my mushroom burger. The server was very nice and understanding and the food was pretty good so I’ll give them that. They have a good beer selection which allows me to forget about the disappointment of an underwhelming meal.

I LOVE Bar Louie! Awesome burgers, yummy calamari, and amazing fries!!! I would highly recommend the queso fries which are EXTRMELY delicious. The calamari app is very tasty… I just wish you got more for the $ 10.00. But they do have half priced apps at certain times.

Came here yesterday as my treat meal. I had planned on PF changs for the whole week leading up, but we decided to take the kids with us last minute and they«don’t like» Chinese food. They wanted chicken fingers and a burger so we figured bar Louie would be a great option for us. The place was pretty dead when we got there, so we were seated right away and greeted by our server. We were surprised to find out they didn’t have a physical«kids menu» but they do have«kids items» that they could offer. Thankfully, the kids already knew what they wanted to order, because I can imagine trying have a child pick what they want to eat without a visual menu for them to look at/choose from can be pretty frustrating and time consuming. I was also bummed that they didn’t have a kids menu because the kids are still in the age where they like to color their little hearts out and instead, we had to make up our own games to play.(nothing wrong with that! we still had fun. I just think they may have enjoyed coloring as well) First out were our pretzel sticks which came with 3 sauces– cheese, mustard, and cinnamon butter. The kids liked the cinnamon and we liked the cheese, it was a good choice! The«kids meals» came out next(the server asked if wanted the kids food out as soon as it was ready instead of waiting for our food and we agreed) and the kids dove in. G thought her sliders were too cute, and Dom was entranced by how good his tater tots were. Next out were our burgers… they were made how we ordered them and they were pretty good. We were all pleased with the quality of our food and we will probably be back next time we go to the gally! The menu isn’t too expensive, but if you are looking for a cheaper bar Louie experience– they have $ 1 burger nights(they say what days of the week on their website) where their full sized burgers are literally $ 1 and then each topping is like 25 cents extra or something like that. you can get stuffed for less than $ 10 on the $ 1 burger nights, it’s great!

I am between 2 – 3 stars for this place. We came with another couple for dinner and probably will never return again, for dinner that is. Definitely more of a drinks and appetizer restaurant. The bar is really nice and has TVs all around to watch sports. We all agreed that our meals were just OK. We did get the buffalo chicken flatbread for an appetizer which was super good. Besides that, not impressed. Kinda wish we went to the Cheesecake Factory instead. We all wanted to stop somewhere on the way home for food because that’s how dissatisfying our meals were. Will not be returning here ever again for dinner. As for drinks and apps– maybe if I’m in the area.

For being a chain restaurant, I give this place props. My friend and I showed up on a rather warm Saturday in March. We were seated within 10 minutes, without reservations. We ordered drinks, I had the Peach Lightening. It was amazing. Not too sweet, just a little sour but very well made. My friend and I couldn’t decide on what to order so we got three different plates and shared. We got the trio dips, spinach artichoke dip and hummus plate. Everything was very tasty, except the cheese that came with the trio dip. Neither my friend or I like queso, so I’m attributing it to that. The salsa was a bit watery but good. The guacamole was tasteless. The hummus were all good. They even gave us more veggies in substitute for pita bread. The spinach dip was great. Obviously it’s not mine, but for a chain it’s really good.

Those of you who read my reviews know that I’m not really a fan of chain restaurants. Sure, they can be bright and glitzy… and their menus are huge and their food is consistent. The problem is, I think, that nothing tastes real. There’s no heart and soul in the food. It’s always lacking something. «Bar Louie» is no exception. It’s a «happening» kind of place with TV’s all around and music blaring and peppy servers serving«stylish» cocktails, wine by the glass, and lots and lots of beer. There’s a huge menu of «small plates», flat beads(ummmm…pizza), salads, burgers, sandwiches, and«large plates». There are even two(count ‘em…one, two) desserts. I wasn’t super hungry so I had a couple of glasses of wine(a VERYGOOD«Estancia» Pinot Grigio) and a «small plate» of hummus, tabbouleh, and tzatziki, with warm pita and cucumber slices. The pita was warm and fresh and the hummus was fresh(from the container) and tasty… but the cucumber slices were HUGE(like a full inch thick), the tzatziki was little more than yogurt with a sprinkle or two of garlic and dill, and worst of all was the tabbouleh. That, my friends, was NOT tabbouleh! And, I know tabbouleh… that delightfully fresh salad made of tomatoes, chopped parsley, chopped mint, onion, garlic, bulgar wheat, olive oil and lemon. I love that stuff! This sad substitution was nothing but bulgar with some parsley from the spice jar, and lemon juice. EWWW! Maybe next time when the movie is over I won’t be quite so agreeable. I’ll say, «Sure, I’d love to go out for a bite to eat.» But, next time I“ll suggest a REAL restaurant.
