   First time here. Yes first it was NYE, so I understand. Was there with another couple. But they crammed extra tables all over and it was hard to not be bumped into by staff. (not their fault). We were also placed under the speaker and music was very loud. Had to ask 3 times to lower it because we couldn't hear ourselves. The staff did their best but you can tell how stressed they were. We were rushed to place our order and to order everything at one time. (ok no problem) . We received a plate of bread which was very tasty. Husband ordered Lobster Bisque which was delicious, as was the fried calamari . Two of us ordered the pan seared scallops in a sauce. couldn't taste the sauce an had to use a lot of lemon. it came with mashed potatoes and spinach. Good but over cooked. Other 2 ordered halibut which they said was dry and over cooked as well. Will we go back to try again. We will, but not on any special day or holiday.

   Food is always very very good. Crab cake was my favorite dish of night. BYOB with a liquor store next store is very convenient.

   This was the best dining experience we have had recently. Everyone from the person greeting us upon entry to the restaurant through dinner & dessert until our departure went above and beyond to make our experience perfect.

   Great first experience at Louie’s- it was New Years Eve and the service and food were both excellent. Will definitely return for another meal.

   I'm always concerned going out for New Years Eve, as I'm concerned the food will be sub-par and we will be rushed out to refill the table. I can happily say that Chef Jason provided an experience which re-ignited my desire to spend New Year's out. The ambience was excellent, the food was fabulous and our server never made us feel we needed to hurry. It felt like enjoying a gourmet meal where we were the only guests. I highly recommend Chef Louis' by Chef Jason for any occasion. Thank you Chef Jason.

   Great food! Loved the appetizer selection and shared calamari, octopus salad, Brussels sprouts and short rib Mac and cheese. Very delicious

   Searched for Seven Fishes for Christmas Eve and found Louie’s on Facebook (Meta). The Seven Fishes menu was advertised for $50 per person on Facebook so I booked for 8:30pm Christmas Eve with 2 other guests. Got a shock when the Seven Fishes Menu came at the table, Louie’s jacked the price to $86 to a captive audience! Quite embarrassing for me to argue the price with 2 of my guests. This is false advertising!! The food was flavorful, but not worth $86. The octopus salad had more olives than pieces of octopus! The Cioppino had broken mussel shells in it. Not coming back to Louie’s!

    Food is outstanding. Ambiance can be improved. Perhaps over time it will be.
