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.

Downtown vibe but in the village. But very loud. The beef tartare, & crab cake were very good. Mac n cheese was a little dry. The burger was excellent. The sea bass was good but a small portion. The eggplant parmigiana was ok & the size was more of an entree than a main. The cocktails were also just ok.

It was exciting to go to a new place in Pointe-Claire. Nice decor but very loud. Perhaps it's the high ceilings or the open space dinning room but it was hard to have a conversation. The waitress had to speak soooooo loud it was almost a little aggressive. The steak & fries were overcooked. A simple menu & they can't even cook it right. 2/2 steaks were overcooked. & it's overpriced. Not impressed.

Finally got to try Lou's, what a great addition to the village! The atmosphere was great, the staff was attentive & capable of accommodating a large group. I had the tartare & pasta genovese which were both excellent & so were the drink selections. Everyone at the table enjoyed their orders! Can't wait to go back & try more of the menu!

Food is always very delicious & thoughtful, I especially love the sea bass. The onion dip is also very yummy. The service is friendly & attentive. The martinis are perfect.

My experience at Lou's was phenomenal! Highly suggest the place. Great staff & amazing food. We ate the Parker Rolls paired with the Scallops after a server had recommended that for starters. For the mains we ordered the Burger & the Ravioli & both were spectacular! The gin fizz & the Martinis kept us nice & refreshed.

Nice little restaurant with some delicious options. Sea bass was excellent, however the portion was quite small for the asking price. Appetizer of tuna was excellent however the $22 crab cake was over spiced, over priced & lacked the fresh taste of crab. All side dishes are an extra cost. The macaroni & cheese is very strong & their fries while tasty, are not evenly cooked so the majority were overdone. Dessert menu was lacking as they only had one option which was a type of pudding chomeur that resembled more of a piece of French toast with ice cream on top & caramel drizzle. Hopefully they add a coffee menu such as espresso & cappuccino since French press was the only option available. This restaurant is one room that holds about 50-60 people max so the atmosphere is quite loud with no option of reducing the noise. Thankfully, their staff is very professional & provides excellent customer service.

We LOVED our first experience at Lou's!!! Menu is small but you can find a bit of everything to satisfy everybody! Our server Lenny was excellent!!! She made a difference in our night out! Pasta Genovese were actually better than some pasta we had in Italy!! We'll be back real soon!
