    Great neighborhood spot in NuLu. Good food, ambience and service. My group enjoyed a late Sunday afternoon lunch on a cold, rainy day and lunch hit the spot.

    All of our meals were excellent. The only negative on the evening was how loud it was very hard for a table of 10 to talk and hear each other. Our waitress was excellent.

    Lou Lou on Market is one of our go to restaurants. The food is reminiscent of New Orleans and always good. When we have our of town visitors, this is the place we always want to take them. That's why we were there, but this time it was because our visitors asked to go, remembering a previous visit.

    We absolutely loved this place! The atmosphere was charming, and our waiter, Parker, was not only sweet but also incredibly knowledgeable. We started with Old Fashioneds featuring Habanero Bitters—a creative and delightful twist on a classic cocktail. For appetizers, the Crawfish Bayou Dip was absolutely delicious. The seasonal salad was light, crisp, and the perfect prelude to our entrees. From the Bayou menu, we tried the Jambalaya and the Etouffée, both of which were bursting with flavor and exceeded our expectations. Everything was impeccable, and we can’t wait to return the next time we’re in Louisville!
