My husband and I had dinner here, and receded at a two person booth. We had an amazing waiter, although I did not get his name, and the food was phenomenal. I had the vegetable risotto with scallops & shrimp. Highly recommend.

When spending that much money for lunch, we expected more of an experience. Meaning, fantastic service, fantastic food served at the correct temperature, instructions on the order to be followed, and overall a feeling that we were getting our monies worth. Unfortunately, that is not how we felt.

Beautiful space. Food was slow to come out. My gnocchi entree came with 6 gnocchi. It was labeled On the menu as an entree not as a small sharing plate. Given the price point, there should have been more food. Wine I ordered wasn’t on the menu, instead of letting me know that it was not available, our server brought me something else. Then tried to act like that was what I ordered. Had to asked someone to find our server so we could get our check.

This was our first time. We were given a gift card so we thought we'd give it a try. Being older we don't make it downtown very often so didn't know what to expect. But the wait staff was very kind, although we never got her name, and the food was absolutely fantastic.

Mario - our server was FANTASTIC!!! Excellent recommendations, checked back in just enough and was (wisely) in charge of training a new server that night. We were going to the theatre that evening and Mario made sure everything was speedy. The kitchen crushed it too! When I return - which I will - I will ask for Mario :)

Our waitress was great but extremely overwhelmed. There was 16 people in our party and everyone’s food & drinks had an issue. Manager wasn’t great at fixing any of the issues. I had biscuits & gravy , it was very bland. I didn’t enjoy it. My white peach mimosa was lovely!

This restaurant has RUINED Cacio de Pepe for me at other restaurants. the food was sooo good! We also had the shrimp and scallop risotto and the cookie dough beignets for dessert. Our server was so great, her name was (I believe Harman? Or Carmen) but she was great! 10/10 will be back!

We had a delightful meal at Louvino before the John Mayer concert at Gainbridge. Everything was on point. Especially notable was the fried green tomato appetizer… So crispy on the outside and flavorful on the inside. Truffle frites were also good. I had a mushroom cappellini pasta that was quite tasty along with a side of delicious brussels sprouts. Oh! The old fashions were also quite nice.

We frequent LouVino’s for all special occasions and this one was extra special because of the care and attention Christina gave to our group. We love the food - they call the fried chicken tacos a “shareable” but do yourself a favor and order your own they are worth it and you won’t want to share. The cocktails are strong and delicious. The service is extraordinary, best birthday dinner. Thank you LouVinos for being a staple in our celebrations. You never disappoint.

Great Birthday Celebration! I took my friend for a birthday lunch and the experience was wonderful. The restaurant was not busy yet and it was quieter than other times I've been there but that was kind of nice. Our service was polite and attentive but not annoying. I mentioned on the reservation that we were celebrating a birthday, and he went over the top bringing us a champagne toast and cookie dough beignets with a candle! The food is always delicious, if a little overpriced, and I happily keep going back.

Great food, great service! The only thing I would definitely change is we got the CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH STUFFED BEIGNETS…awful!! Way too much sugar on top and the cookie dough not a good combo with the beignet at all. They should be a bit bigger with a custard filling and powdered sugar, not cane sugar. Outside of those, it was a great experience.
