Can't say enough great things from the delicious hamburger to the scrumptious truffle fries this place is a jewel in the heart of Detroit! In from Atlanta for a conference had lunch at this amazing place. The service was stellar, food amazing and them met the owner! He was gracious and told us to come back for dessert that night night after our dinner with the conference. The homemade brownies with cinnamon ice cream are just mouth watering and the fried Oreos just wow! Trust me try this place, food to die for, restaurant is beautiful. If this place was in Atlanta reservations would be booked a year out! It's a jewel!
We enjoyed our impromptu visit to Louie's, Our server , Stewart was friendly and gave us great recommendations for our food. The calamari was tender and delicious, the best Ive had lately. I highly recommend the Brussels sprout appetizer. We will definitely be back to sample an entree!
This quaint restaurant is in the heart of the theater district, and within walking distance of everything. The food is above average, and the service is excellent. Highly recommended.
You ever heard that saying "I really wanted to like this place, but...." That's my take on this place. The food is good, but they have a spin to their food that maybe my SoCal palate isn't used to the MidWest way of cooking.
So first, we tried to get the hockey game on tv. Fail. They don't have a sports package. No problem, it happens (then I realized my hotel was near Hockeytown Cafe.. duh!)
We ordered some drinks. The stars is for the prices.. amazingly reasonable, almost cheap compared to SoCal prices. $4 for a beer! Score!
Then we order. Stephen wanted the Hungarian Stuffed Peppers. The server talked him OUT of ordering it, so he chose the Albanian salad. The menu said vinaigrette dressing, nothing about Balsamic Vinegar, which is quite a difference. He didn't like the salad because it was too sweet, but didn't want to send it back. I made him send it back and he chose the steak tip appetizer, which he did like.
I ordered the linguine with shrimp (no calamari). The shrimp were indeed jumbo but no flavor. The linguine was covered in some sort of flakes, maybe italian herbs? Whatever it was, it did not enhance it. The portion wasn't very hearty so I ordered a side of wings. The server said 10 wings, either barbecue or buffalo style. I asked if I can get 1/2 and 1/2? Apparently that got lost in translation because I didn't get 5 buffalo and 5 barbecue.. they actually mixed BOTH sauces together. I bit into one, and said oh its bbq... then the heat grew and I said no, its buffalo. It actually worked, but it wasn't what I wanted.
Karen had the Mac n Cheese with a side of chicken. The chicken breast was hacked into 3 big pieces and plopped on top of the noodles. You'd think the chef could have made the pieces bite size or thinner slices, as she had to cut the chicken on top of an awkward bowl of noodles.
It was just a weird experience. Not sure if I'd go out of my way to recommend this place, but its literally on the other side of the Aloft Hotel. Cute place, but just ok.
Must order Steak Tips appetizer, overall amazing service and great food. Clarissa was our server and was very friendly. Sold us on the Steak tips app, which was amazing. We ordered the corned beef Reuben sandwich on onion roll and upgraded to truffle fries. awesome. She sold us on the Reese's stuffed Fried Oreo dessert which was also killer. Good beers, talls are only $6. Makes amazing American Mules - ginger beer drink. Will return again
