I recently celebrated a friend’s birthday at Louis Restaurant and it was an unforgettable experience. The eggplant Parm was delicious accompanied by a couple of excellent entrées. The drinks menu offered something for everyone and we thoroughly enjoyed our selections. What truly made the evening special was the warm and welcoming ambiance. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive without being intrusive. They surprised my friend with a birthday dessert which added a lovely touch to the celebration. Perfect for special occasions or casual dining alike!

Wow. The food and service were absolutely exceptional. So happy that a spot like this finally exists in the West Island and we don’t need to go downtown. Halo and Maggie are the absolute best..Thank you!!!

Had a wonderful experience at Lou’s. Service was great- very attentive and friendly, atmosphere is nice- ambient decor, not loud inside, and the food was delicious! The bread pudding was to die for! Will definitely be back

Years ago, I was wandering the desert, on the brink of total exhaustion and desperate for water. Among the dunes, I stumbled upon a lamp. I rubbed the lamp three times. Suddenly, a blue genie emerged from the lamp, smiling down at me. He said, ‘I will grant you three wishes.’ My throat impossibly dry, I replied: ‘I only need one wish: for there to be an actually good restaurant in the West Island of Montreal.’ The genie winked at me and nodded his head. I was transported to Pointe-Claire village in front of a magical place: Lou’s. The drinks were phenomenal, cocktails of such high quality you would think you were at a bar downtown. The beer tartare was exquisite; the atmosphere cozy; the vibes immaculate. Maybe it was a dream, or a mirage - but the memory of Lou’s earns 5 stars regardless.

We had an amazing experience at Lou's! Our waitress and barmaid, Nadya, was incredibly helpful and attentive. She guided us through both the drinks and food menu with expertise, making excellent recommendations that truly enhanced our dining experience. Her friendly demeanor and knowledge made us feel welcome and well cared for. The food was delicious, and the drinks were perfectly crafted. We can't wait to return!

Go to Lou’s and try as many dishes as possible! forget the booze! EAT ALL THE FOOD! WOW! Elevated takes on classic dishes, Lou’s has something for everyone. High quality eats, good value, fresh ingredients, wonderful staff, and classy yet welcoming ambiance.

So so obsessed with this restaurant. The pasta was absolutely phenomenal. The fries and drinks were also delicious, as well as the oysters. We had Simon as our waiter and he was so kind and attentive. The service was also very quick. The restaurant is quick small so you are very close to your neighbour, which we did not mind at all. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely be coming back!

Everything we ordered were fantastic. Highly recommend the spicy tuna carpaccio, beef tartare, crab cake, baked scallops as appetizers. Pasta and rib steaks (25oz) were also good. Only minor thing was the fires was overly salted otherwise it was very good fries. Great service and chill vibe. Nice to see that West Island have this kind of restaurant. Highly recommended. The downside was that the restaurant was very warm and humid. Like some other reviews mentioned. The AC definitely not working well.
