Louie London Reviews
Rude, dismissive and lying doormen
We were looking for a place to have a sophisticated post dinner drink. We walked past Louie and saw a group ahead of us mention they had a rooftop bar. This group was let in despite having no booking. However when it came to us, we were told โguest
Wouldnโt recommend or return
No vibe at all. They say live music and DJ on Saturdays brunch there was nothing other than background music. No drinks menu given had to ask, had to ask every time we wanted another drink as glasses were empty and then again for dessert menus, that
Loved it!
The food was incredible. We had the chicken and aubergine mains with the green beans and tomato salad as sides and we absolutely loved it. They make an excellent cosmopolitan!! And the service was attentive without being overbearing - really canโ
Dinner before the theater
The food was delicious. The salad with cashews on it was so good. And the chicken breast was so tender and tasty. For dessert the raspberry Pavlova was wonderful. The staff was very friendly.
Such a lovely place
Super Lovely environment and friendly staff. Amazing food and absolutely loved the Piano Night. Will def be coming back.
Delicious food at Louie!
We had the most incredible meal at Louie as a group of 10. Every single dish we ordered was delicious & the service was great. I would definitely recommend Louie to anyone visiting central London
WURA - WHAT A STAR! Excellent 10/10
Louie-London, what can I say, the VERY BEST! We hosted a Baby Shower here, and we couldn't have wished for a more perfect day. A special mention to Wura โ a phenomenal asset to you, she literally made the day and couldnโt do enough for us.
Amazing time at Louie!
Went there with my sister for dinner and had an amazing time. Great seafood selection and great drinks. The bar upstairs was great too with an intimate and vibey atmosphere!
Super
Great ambience & top-notch service at Louie London! Donโt miss the poโboy oyster & gazpacho โ to die for! If youโre lucky, youโll catch live music at the Alligator Bar โ a real hidden gem with great vibes!
Highly recommended
Fantastic hidden gem within Covent Garden area. Away from all the noise and touristic spots around it is the perfect place for a lovely night out, dinner and drinks. Looking forward to visit again once they have one of their live music events at the
Tasty,tasty very very tasty
This restaurant was unexpectedly perfect from the greeting to the food, service and the upstairs bar. Went in after seeing queues outside many close by restaurants and by the time we left felt like the smartest people in London for choosing to come h
Go to Louie in London
"Rosie, our waitress, and Alex, Sommelier, really added to our dinner. Both great and interesting people. Plus the chef. The salad had a bit of a smoky, nutty flavor. And the monkfish sublime. Canโt recommend it higher enoughโ
Very flavorful dishes and friendly staff
We happened upon Louie before a show around the corner. They might not cater for pre-theatre diners but Iโm so glad we joined. Wonderful rainbow trout carpaccio and fennel/asparagus salad, followed by smoked lamb. The calamari was a little ho-hum b
Fabulous night out to celebrate my daughters birthday
This is a fine dining restaurant and fine dining it was Beautifully cooked rack of lamb with red wine jus Foie de gras starter with brioche Excellent service Very good wine and sommelier
Great service,Amazing drinks
5/5 came here by myself which I thought would have been awkward for a place like the alligator bar, I have been here with friends and itโs such a upbeat place however the waitress Adele gave me suggestions on drinks and food, made sure I had fun,in
Wonderful evening
Had such a fantastic evening at Louie last night with my son, who had 'won' the meal as a prize from his employer. I had felt fairly worried that we would look daft, being mum and son, but not a single person made us feel stupid. We felt sooo welcome
Average at best
The bar upstairs was lovely but weird with little atmosphere and unpleasant that people could smoke on the terrace. The restaurant itself was very busy and buzzy. The food however was mixed with a nice starter and a very average main of just beans. T
Louie is my favourite place !
Best place in London! First of all the stuff working there are incredible, making you feel like part of their family. Ali is someone very special, I have never seen a person who like is Job so much! He is fun, kind and has the best energies. This p
Expensive for very average food.
First impressions pretty good although table accessories made it look cheap. Service was adequote and how it should be. Nothing special here. Food fine - expected much much more for the price. Wine - very expensive and nothing out of the ordinary. Lo
Elegant and classy
Beautiful food, great atmosphere amazing cocktails. We had great help from the Sommelier walked us through all the options and made it easier for us to chose the perfect wine that goes with our food was that it was amazing. Canโt wait to be back.
Terrible
Terrible overpriced salty food rude service. I will never return. Poor ambiance and all staff encountered were rude especially the restaurant manager .
Wonderful dinner and beautiful spot in the heart of London!
Itโs my first time to try this spot which was highly recommended by a dear friend. It did not disappoint! We ordered several seafood dishes like seabass, tuna and monkfish etc, they were all very fresh and delicious. Service by Pauline made the who
Bad service beautiful place
I didnโt try the restaurant. We had a table for the bar in the 3rd floor. Beautiful place. Nice ambiance. When my friend booked her table there was a note in small letters saying that tables were required by 9pm or need to pay some minimum spent. O
Markets itself as a top tier restaurant but doorman are more Wetherspoons
Popped in for a drink after dinner at the ivy. 4 of us walked into doorway and bouncer came over said aggressively that it was closed and physically man handled our girls out of the door and pulled it into their faces. When we confronted him for bein
This foood is terrible becuase it tasted so bad and to cold
This foood is terrible becuase it tasted so bad and to cold it was so expensive and the waating was 20 minutes and theyre was only 2 people and the customer service was bad and i found a tooth in my food.
Harassing Behaviour
Unfortunately, I have experienced a quite unpleasant situation on New Yearโs Eve. I am still shocked by how I was treated, or should I rather say , harassed by a member of the staff, I assume a waiter. I do not know the name of the person but I
A Bitter Experience at Louie Alligator Bar: Discrimination, Disregard for Customers' Equality, and a Missed Opportunity
As an interior designer and architect specialising in the luxury hospitality industry, I have always held Louie Alligator Bar in high regard. Its reputation for stunning design and captivating atmosphere made it a must-visit destination. So, when I w
Amazing!
Amazing food!! The place is amazing and the vibes are tres chic! Tarte tartin was to die for, but the star of our night was our waiter Amir! Thanks to him weโll become regulars!!!
Lovely room, friendly service, poor food.
Lovely room, nice design, friendly staff, music too loud (especially if you sit under a speaker), the food is poor - if it was based on the food it will get 1 or 2 stars. But the friendly service and nice rooms lifts the place. The kitchen needs to b
Outstanding!!!
Service was phenomenal in the first floor restaurant. The staff are exceptional. The sommelier in particular went way over and above to find a wine I loved and really set the tone for a wonderful evening. The food was spectacular and everything cooke
Amazing
Dropped in for a cocktail and dessert to satisfy a craving. I sat with the bartender Stefan who had designed the whole cocktail menu and was super friendly in explaining why he chose different elements of the cocktails - hugely insightful and intere
A restaurant I m never ever going back!
Louie used to be one of my favourite restaurants in London. When it first opened everything was great! Unfortunately itโs been over 3 months now that every time I go there is always something wrong. The last time I went though everything was terrib
Everything so nice!
Very good place and very nice evening! Everything was fine and we were very satisfied and happy with the service thanks to Stefano!
Amazing food, music & staff!
Delicious food, all the staff are so friendly & lovely and the live music upstairs is always so much fun! Such talented musicians play there. Louie is my favourite place in London for a night out by far! X
Dinner
We had a great dinner. The food was amazing and the server,Fabrice, made it better with his smiley face and excellent attitude.
No fur coat let alone knickers
A thoroughly deserved 1 star goes to Louie! We visited on Saturday night. Food was ok, but lacking in flavour apart from salt. The turbot was overcooked. Our server was fine if slightly overfamiliar. The service, however, continued downhill and ended
AVOID - WORST RESTAURANT I HAVE EVER BEEN TO
Avoid at all costs, the worst restaurant I have ever ever been to in my whole entire life. Unless youโre looking for food poisoning which 4 of our guests currently have this morning after eating Oysters and their worst described dish, โBBQ LOBSTE
Overpriced, underdelivered
The expectation for atmosphere here is quite high as it relates to Chiltern. While Louie doesn't struggle with Identity - it does with both service and food. We started with a cocktail on the rooftop which was lovely - Other than that, the overall e
nice evening ruined by a very rude manager
food and service was good; although one or 2 items were missing from the menu. that did not matter as there was a wide choice on the menu. At the end we were told that we could go to the upstairs bar and so we left the table quickly in anticipation t
Meh...and expensive!
We visited Louie for a cocktail on December 28, and we expected live music and a lively atmosphere. However, the place was deadly quiet - I understand that between Christmas and New Year there is a 'down time' - but it was rather disappointing. The c
No contact
I tried calling this restaurant three times.. It goes straight to voicemail with no sound. Is it not possible to speak to anyone on the number provided on their website?
Connect with users posting reservations for Louie London
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Louie London. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Louie London at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Louie London page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Louie London to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Louie London!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
