They did a great job with our fairly large group reservation at lunch time, allowed us to add an 11th person with no trouble, and had no issues with splitting the check. All in all it was great!

Lots of availability on Open Table should have been a clue. Pass on this place. I've been to Bar Louie in the past and don't remember it being good or bad but this night was a total miss. No person to greet or seat us for a solid 5 minutes at least. Two employees walked by and looked at us only to continue on doing whatever it is they do. Bathrooms did not have flushing plumbing which was a HUGE turn off. Surprised anyone was eating here to be honest. We walked out.

Had read mixed reviews lately. We like to sit outside in the summer but had not been inside in awhile. Had reservations for 6 people. The service was great and the food was good! It was busy but we were in no hurry, the waitress kept us up to date on when our food would be out and we never had to wait long for drinks. Give the place another try if you have been disappointed. I also loved the fact that the music wasn't loud so we could actually have a conversation. There are some places I will not go back to due to this! I'm out to talk not listen to the music they have blaring! Merry Christmas!!

The food was decent and the brunch menu had a special for mimosas which was good. However the service was really slow. The server was fairly pleasant but there just seemed to be a lack of urgency. And they kept bringing dirty glasses for the mimosas so we eventually had to ask for plastic cups.

Food was great as was the service. It was a bit noisy but that was to be expected as the Colts were playing. Great time overall.

I hosted a small holiday lunch for my selling reps and we had a great time over lunch. We spent about 2 hours and it was a great time! Thanks
