Les avis réunis sur Lou's décrivent une expérience majoritairement très positive, avec une nourriture délicieuse et variée et une atmosphère chaleureuse. Plusieurs plats reviennent comme des coups de cœur: carpaccio de thon, pâtes Genovese, demi poulet, rigatoni et burger, sans oublier les desserts comme le bread pudding. La carte est souvent qualifiée de courte mais bien exécutée, et les portions parfois jugées petites pour le prix. Le service est généralement chaleureux et attentif, avec une équipe qui fait l'effort d'être disponible et utile; toutefois certains témoignages évoquent un service plus lent ou un niveau de bruit élevé. L'endroit est souvent perçu comme idéal pour un rendez-vous ou une sortie entre amis, et comme un véritable bijou de l'Ouest de l'Île. Des critiques ponctuelles évoquent une ambiance parfois bruyante et une attente plus longue que attendue, ou des plats servis tièdes, mais ces remarques restent minoritaires. La sélection de boissons et les cocktails sont souvent loués, tout comme l'effort apporté à la présentation des plats et à l'attention portée aux détails. En somme, Lou's est présenté comme une adresse locale incontournable dans l'Ouest de l'Île, offrant une expérience gastronomique de qualité qui pousse à revenir.
Great little restaurant in the PC village. Service was great & the menu is small which I prefer. Its a very trendy place for cocktails & conversations.
Charming restaurant in the Pointe-Claire village, food was great, & has a cosy/intimate atmosphere. The service was efficient & friendly. Definitely recommend trying it out if you're in the West Island.

Years ago, I was wandering the dessert, on the brink of total exhaustion & desperate for water. Among the dunes, I stumbled upon a lamp. I rubbed the lamp three times. Suddenly, a blue genie emerged from the lamp, smiling down at me. He said,'I will grant you three wishes.' My throat impossibly dry, I replied:'I only need one wish: for there to be an actually good restaurant in the West Island of Montreal.'
The genie winked at me & nodded his head. I was transported to Pointe-Claire village in front of a magical place: Lou's. The drinks were phenomenal, cocktails of such high quality you would think you were at a bar downtown. The beer tartare was exquisite; the atmosphere cozy; the vibes immaculate. Maybe it was a dream, or a mirage - but the memory of Lou's earns 5 stars regardless.
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.
Super beau petit resto sympathique & au coeur du magnifique village de Pointe Claire. Excellents repas par contre dispendieux pour la grosseur des plats servis

Very excited to have a new & trendy spot in Pointe-Claire Village! The food was excellent in terms of flavour, the service was fair & the cocktails were good but overpriced. As for the portions, this is where I'm left unsure if I would ever go back. For 200$, my husband & I did not leave satisfied. The pasta portions are quite small & the entrees too. It's all very tasty but not at all worth the money...it's too bad. Hopefully they can increase portions.
Cool new spot in point Claire village. I'm glad they kept the vintage vibe The food was really good. Personally I didn't like the scallops & I normally love scallops Maybe I got a bad one
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.
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!

This is an absolute gem in Pointe Claire Village. Just what the West Island needed! The vibe & the food, the drinks & the decor, the service, everything was on point. I look forward to going back!
GUYS! This restaurant is the exact spot I was looking for to have my birthday dinner with friends. I will be a regular 100% & can't wait to go back again. The food was top tier, so tasty with a feeling of comfort with every bite. Jono & the whole staff was so attentive & handled alot of the food restrictions with our group, which I know is not always easy. Lenny made me feel seen & at home. Everything you need when you rarely get a night out. Highlights for me were the oysters, the dip (like elevated onion dip but gave me 90's nostalgia feels) & I am still thinking about those parker rolls. "The dirty" cocktail was 10/10 We finally have a good spot to eat quality food with quality service in the village can I get an AMEN. Anyways, EAT HERE.

We have wanted to try Lou's out since they opened several months ago but were never able to snag a reservation (probably because we tried to late...obviously) but lady luck finally called in the new year & we got a table (bar only) at the beginning of January 2024. Although there are a number of restaurants in the Pointe Claire Village, Lou's has created both an elegant yet casual ambiance with a mixed Italian/American-style cuisine. After sitting us at the bar & placing our order, a table cleared & we asked to move to it which they happily agreed to...that's appreciated as many restaurants don't want to hassle with moving patrons to new tables. The menu is not extensive but I would say that all types of eaters can find at least one thing on the menu to enjoy. For our meal, we started with the Parker Rolls (good...but the portion was a bit on the small side) & Crab Cake (very good, excellent sauce but a bit on the pricey side for a single cake)...for our main we had the Pasta Genovese (excellent), Eggplant Parmigiana (it seems they fried the eggplant slices to be crispy before being baked...was excellent...highly recommend it) & a side of Creamed Greens (sounds weird, I know, but was actually quite good). When moving from the bar to the table there was an issue with timing of the main meal being delivered. Due to the delay, the manager complimented us with a tasty Strawberry Cookie dessert & a glass of Amara. Both of which were greatly appreciated & enjoyed as well. Service was very good & attentive & we never felt wanting. Although note that there is (currently) a draft due to a faulty door at the back that affects the left side of the restaurant (as you enter). It wasn't terrible but it was noticeable...just ask to sit on the right side if you can. The restaurant is very busy so reservations are highly recommended...at least several days in advance. Enjoy!
I won't be going back. Was incredibly excited for it to open up, as I live in the area. Went tonight with a friend & we were completely rushed out the door. I wasn't even close to finishing my drink when the waitress came over to let us know we'd need to leave our table for future reservations. There was no one even waiting at the door. As we paid our bill, she reminded us again we'd need to vacate our table for future resos, despite the fact we were sitting next to an empty table. As we walked out there was still no one at the door. Great food & nice decor but terrible service that makes you feel unwelcome. Too bad as the village needed a new spot - I won't be going back there again with that horrible service.
What a gem of a find! They just opened & I somehow stumbled upon this great spot in the heart of the village! The decor sets the mood, the food is fantastic & their signature cocktails are to die for. Be sure to ask the owner to crack his cool pepper shaker for you!
