Review Summary

Lou's Restaurant is frequently described as a stylish and cozy destination in the West Island, celebrated by many for its flavorful signature dishes like the pasta Genovese, tuna carpaccio, and bread pudding. While numerous guests highlight the fantastic atmosphere, unique cocktail menu, and exceptionally friendly service provided by specific staff members, others report inconsistent experiences. Frequent mentions of loud noise levels, cramped seating, and long wait times for food occasionally overshadow the dining experience. Furthermore, while many patrons find the service top-tier and welcoming, some visitors have encountered issues with slow response times, perceived pressure to vacate tables, or inconsistent food portions, leading to a divide in overall satisfaction among the clientele.

Amazing restaurant! You can tell it's a labour of love for the chef. As a fellow chef I know how much effort it takes to develop such depth of flavour! Everything was executed perfectly & the service from Katia was efficient & friendly. A must try!!

They did not have a lot of things that they had on the menu. Their menu is already small. They had no pasta left. Then they only had 1 burger? Who has 1 burger left? We had a reservation for 6 people. The tuna carpacio was good & their fries were pretty good too. Will not be back tho

Had the most amazing dinner at Lou's! Everything from food, service, to ambiance was just spot on. We ordered almost everything on the menu & it was all amazing. I particularly loved the onion dip, tuna tar tar & the burger. Can't wait to go back!

Great food & service, the West Island definitely needed a good spot like that! I hope this place stays busy for a long time! Cheers!

The food is very good, staff is efficient. We liked the resto but found it a little noisy. Prices are on the upper side of the scale. No surprise since all restos are increasing their prices. Overall a great experience.

The place was fun, but so loud. Couldn't hear my wife talk. I would recommend getting several appetizers to share based on the sizes.

We just had dinner here, we've been excited to try it since it opened in the village. The food was good. The crab cake was delish! Mmm. The braised beef pappardelle - pasta Genovese was good but not to die for. But, it was way way too hot. We asked the waitress if the ac is working she replied "oh yes it is fully on, it's a small space & doors are open all the time & I'm hot too...". It was also very loud. It's very small & very loud though esthetically pretty. My first choice was the Caesar salad, but I wanted some chicken on it. So I asked & the waitress & she said they can't do it...even though they have a roasted chicken dish. Then I debated the burger, but wanted to substitute the fries for a Caesar salad. She quickly replied "it's company policy we can't do that..." umm... 🙄 Odd as they have a bowl of salad as a meal ( no chicken offered yet they serve chicken as a meal...) very rarely do we come across a restaurant that can't alter or modify things to make customer happy especially a nicer place like this one that isn't a huge chain. The wine & beer were very small for the cost- the beer wasn't even a pint for $9. Overall we didn't enjoy the experience fully. We wouldn't come back unless it was for someone's birthday for example.
