The food was okay, but overpriced for the quality. The service and cocktails were quite excellent, and the overall ambiance was unique. It was an okay place to try, but I most likely won’t return, due to the price and quality of the food.

This was my second experience at Loulay and I was underwhelmed again. My main dish was under seasoned, although the French Onion soup was perfect. The service was awful. Our server was completely disinterested and we ordered multiple courses which were not timed well at all, so we had some food coming out before others and secondary courses coming out for some that were not done with first. Very disappointed in what should be a quality experience.

Love this restaurant. It is in the downtown Seattle Sheraton Hotel, but you may enter from the street. The service is great from the moment you walk in. The food is awesome as are the drinks. I highly recommit LouLay.
