Its in a nice area with plenty on parking. Food was excellent and plenty of specials that even included desserts. Spacing was perfect. I will be happy to go back in the spring.
Valentine’s day
Always a wonderful experience! Food and service perfect!
Love everything about Louies!!
Such an enjoyable experience. Our server was so lovely, making my birthday extra special.
In this time of virus Louie’s was very safe in there spacing, cleaning and having staff wear face masks. As always the food, service and wine was a step above.
Great food and service. Visited several times and it’s been consistently fabulous.
Our waiter Drew wasn’t only the best, but the best we’ve ever had anywhere. More than accommodating, nearly customized everything to our liking and was nice enough to recommend some honeymoon spots. The food was excellent but he was exceptional. It was all Worth the price.
They have only 2-3 heat lamps for many tables. We were freezing
food was outstanding. The service was great. The drinks were excellent
Always perfect.
Our first time at Louie's and we had a great outdoor meal! We all enjoyed the food and will definitely go back!
I’ll be back
First time dining inside since the pandemic. Very clean and felt very safe.
Food was amazing. My wife had the short rib raviolis and I have the chicken pizziola. We started with the Italian salad. Generous portions and fantastic food quality.
With that outside on the patio due to the pandemic and it was a very nice experience overall.
Wine pour was bad....for a $21 glass of red it was barely adequate
Always a wonderful experience!!
The service was wonderful. We felt very safe & the food was great as usual.
We enjoyed the meal very much. Excellent service provided. Disappointed in the price of wine. For the cost of a glass of wine, we can purchase the entire bottle!
Food and service excellent. Ourfavorite dish was the long hot peppers with melted provolone. Incredible!
Great food, service and atmosphere.
5 star review..... even with a table in the grass to conform to CT guidelines. You will need a mask if you need to go to the restroom as well as to check in- FYI
Love the outdoor seating and the food was great!
Was able to eat outside now that CT is allowing outside dining! The staff was practicing all of the CDC guidelines. Dining there was relaxed and a much welcomed back to “normal” experience!
5 star experience all around, my favorite restaurant!Outdoor dining on a beautiful patio with umbrellas for the sun and space heaters at night. The cocktails are amazing, best margarita ever! Everything from the Lavender Collins to the espresso martinis taste delicious. amazing house wines. Great appetizers, try the filet mignon carpaccio and the burrata. Gorgeous entrees, Chicken Louie’s is a must try - chicken breast with white wine, butter and lemon finished in the oven with asparagus and Parmesan cheese! Short rib ravioli, rigatoni nonna, jumbo shrimp fra diavolo , I’m getting hungry thinking about it!! Top it off with house made tiramisu or Italian cheesecake
Great food, great service.
Great service, set up adorably for this time. Heaters outside. Waiter was a great bartender, recommend spicy strawberry margaritas. Food was great but definitely a bit over priced. Other than that wonderful experience.
The lobster raviolis were out of this world...and with all the extra lobster, shrimp and scallops on top! And after dinner I highly recommend the Espresso Martini with just a "tad" of Bailey's...best I've ever had!!!!
Great food and friendly service.
This is a fabulous restaurant. Excellent menu! Good service.
Everything we had was delicious! The back dining room was very quiet and cozy.
First visit here, but it won’t be my last! Exceptional food and service. Excellent Italian food that was enjoyed by everyone in my party. Nona’s rigatoni was delicious, as was the veal. Great daily special selections, too. Definitely check this restaurant out; you won’t be disappointed!
Great service and a few desert samples compliments of the manager
Fabulous! The staff was very friendly
Go to Louie's in Darien. Go for lunch, go for dinner and enjoy HAPPY HOUR. The food is great, the service is amazing and the scene is great for couples and families! Enjoy delicious Italian food, great drinks and amazing FISH! Love this place.
Have been going to Louie’s, Cos Cob location forever. Just learned about Darien location within the last six weeks. And, the restaurant has been open for about two years? Someone should be shot for very poor advertising.
Our first time at Louie's was great. We and our friends enjoyed the evening. Excellent service!!! Tasty food! And though there were a lot of people, we sat in a booth and could easily hear each other.
If you are looking for an easy kick back place where the food is very inviting, service truly outstanding, and you don't have to give away your first born as far as price Louie’s is the answer. We started with the Caesar Salad followed by the Chicken Romana and my wife had the Linguine & Clams in a white sauce ---- we finished off with the desert special, a crème Brule cheesecake. Bottom line I would not have changed a thing and frankly I liked my entree so much that I will order the same when I go back. On the flip side, you should understand that there is a large bar crowd so if you sit in the bar area (as we did) it will definitely be noisy---so request a seat in the dining room. I would encourage all that I know and those that I don't to give Louie's a try ---- you will not be disappointed.
We celebrated with 10 friends here. Louie’s never disappoints! Amazing food and bartenders in town!
The service was outstanding. It was New Years Eve so it was very busy. We have been there before. As always the food was great. We always get the hot antipasto, one of our favorites dishes at Louie’s. We were the last to leave but weren’t rushed at all.
