Misty behind the bar was great! She was friendly, attentive, and clearly care about both the staff and the customers. It's noticeable how well the team works together under her leadership, which makes the whole atmosphere more enjoyable. I'd definitely come back because of the experience she help create. read more

We were hungry after the concert, so we stopped here! The DJ was nice- he played all different genres and eras! We got there right before it got really busy with the other concert goers! We found a table quickly and the server was nice. We had good seats inside but right next to open patio. I had the chicken nachos. It was spicy but the queso and chicken were not hot. It did taste ok. Hubby ordered a patty melt. It was decent! Good spot to chill after hours. read more

We had reservations 2 hrs before the Sting concert and it wasn't busy yet. Ordered our drinks, 1 water and 3 bar drinks. It took 16 minutes after I started counting to get our drinks. We had ordered our food in the meantime which took 37 minutes and that was only portions of the order that came out. We waited another 12 minutes for a simple Caesar salad. Reason for taking 49 minutes, had to make more salads! Ketchup for fries, forget it! They were cold by the time we got a small cup of ketchup! Waitress was freaking clueless! No refills on drinks, couldn't locate her to order! Finally got her attention to get the ck & she asked one check or 2, there were 2 couples, and I stated 1 ck, she promptly presented me my ck and our friends their ck! Wrong, try again!! Pathetic!! To be honest the food was good and probably really good if it had been served hot! Never again, life's too short! read more

We had a few hours before catching our flight home and a friend brought us here for dinner. I really liked the vibe with the dim lighting, huge bar and cozy light blue bar seats. We sat at the bar and the seats were super comfy. We were here for hours! My husband and his friend enjoyed the Happy Hour beer specials and even though it was late in the day, I had the best Mimosa. For dinner, I had the Parmesan Crusted Chicken. I think it lacked a bit of flavor for my taste. The boys had burgers though and they absolutely loved them. read more

Sean helped turn the experience around. We walked in and no one came to read us or take our order. I ended up going to the front and getting menus, so we could move things along and that is where Sean came in apologized and got us our menus. We we were able to take part in the happy hour and had a few kids' meals and also got a few beverages, which were pretty decently tasty and strong. Overall, the experience was one where I definitely was encouraged to return and would look this place up again even though i'm usually not a fan of chain restaurants. read more

Cajun salmon and shrimp is the way to go! Fresh, delicious and hot! The potatoes on the side needs work though... tastes old. Steak wasn't great... wish it was seared better and not so fatty or dry. Eh. Fries were good! Drinks were bomb! Service could improve but I understand they were short staffed. read more

Went here for a working lunch with some coworkers. It was my first time at a bar Louie location and crazy enough, after this visit, I ended up going back that night to a different location randomly. Anyways, we ordered some calamari and then I got the salmon sliders. The calamari here was one of the best I've ever had. I like the seasoning they used and the sweet chili sauce for that Asian flair. It was really perfectly cooked. The salmon sliders were also delicious. Every bite had salmon and the aioli was really good. I got the truffle fries as well and I can never go wrong with a truffle fry tbh. Service was great. We were the first ones inside and even the manger came by our table to check on us and talk and she was really sweet. Will definitely return to this location. read more

Travel eats: Irving, TX. I'm up here for, you guessed it...another concert! This time it's at the Toyota Music Factory and needing a quick place to "pre-game" and wait for some friends to arrive- I ducked into Bar Louie. Now, I don't normally do chains, but...in this case I needed a place where I could be easily found and this fit the mark. Having said all of that...I enjoyed what I had in my quick pit stop for a couple drinks and something from the happy hour "bar bites" menu. Since I planned on doing a little drinking, I got the truffle fries thinking they'd be a solid absorption material (and if I was lucky) they'd be good. These truffle fries were amazing!!!! The fries were hot, crisp and perfectly topped with Parmesan cheese and other spices. But the absolute thing that made the dish was the truffle aioli...it was SO delicious! With every bite I wanted to let out and audible "mmmmm" but people would think I'm crazy. Anyway...can't vouch for anything other than the truffle fries, but damn...those were some good ass fries! Bring on the drinks and the tunes! read more

I was initially hesitant to return to this location, assuming parking would be a hassle--but I was pleasantly surprised to find out they validate parking for several hours. Huge plus! The space has plenty of high tops and a large bar area, so we grabbed seats at the bar. Another happy surprise: we landed right at Happy Hour! They offer great specials on both drinks and food--and even have a reverse Happy Hour, which is awesome. I ordered a Dirty Martini, and my husband had a margarita-style martini--we were both impressed. We also shared the calamari, which was delicious. Light breading, perfectly crispy--not heavy at all. For my main dish, I had the chicken with artichokes and mushrooms in a creamy sauce (wish I remembered the name!). It was outstanding--a generous portion with plenty to take home. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to enjoy their jobs and one another, which made the atmosphere even more welcoming. Add it to the love list! read more

Let me start off by saying the food and drinks are decent. It's the staff and management here that I have a problem with. We came in during happy hour for some drinks and light bites and were looking forward to taking advantage of the happy hour deals. Our server didn't know how to ring in some of our orders so the happy hour pricing was way off. Some of the food items were rang in after happy hour even though we ordered before happy hour was over. And when we asked about the pricing to the manager, we were told that servers ring in things differently, which is unacceptable at a chain such as this. Visiting this establishment was clearly a mistake, and we won't be back. read more

We sat at the bar and had prompt and attentive service from Devin. Very personable and offered suggestions off of the menu. Burgers(All Nighter & Truffle Crunch) were good as usual). Our draft beers were ICE cold!! read more

This month's Elite All-Star event took place at Bar Louie. My fellow Yelpers and I had the pleasure to taste new menu items. Please see the photo of all the new items. I think all of them will be a hit. Appetizers: My favorite was the bruschetta and the Margherita pizza. They will be my go-to. The choice of toppings for the bruschetta made it so flavorful. The Margherita pizza had a good amount of cheese which I love. Often times, I find that the cheese is scarce with that type of pizza. Main Course: If you like spicy, go with the BBQ chicken salad or the spicy chicken fundido. I like both, however, I'm not big on spicy. I'm not a fan of pretzels either but a fellow Yelpers said the Bavarian pretzels were good. He really liked the cheese sauce that came with them. The Louie's Cheesesteak was tasty but again, it could have used more cheese. Others were in agreement with me in that regard. Dessert: The triple chocolate cake was a bit much for me, but if you are a chocolate lover, you will love it. The strawberry cheesecake was to die for. You could tell it was freshly made. Drinks: The bartender did a presentation for us. He made the expresso old-fashioned. Very impressive. A lot goes into it. I can't speak on the taste because I'm a margarita girl myself. Side note: Shoutout to the bartender for winning Bartender of the Year. Now, the drink I did have, the raspberry lemonade margarita. Yes, yes and yes. It was very good. However, the most popular drink during this event was the dragon fruit margarita. So, be sure to check it out. read more

Went back to this place after few years. It was for farewell to colleague. I ordered Blue moon and coors light, both the beers were flat and very disappointing. Thai Fried Calamari was amazing, it is a must try. Apart from the calamari, nothing great to write about read more

Bar service was friendly and great but other than that......gross...just gross. The restaurant & bar area was messy and wet. Appetizer & entree came out slow and was not fresh, super salty, and instantly hurt my stomach. Low quality ambience and vibe for such a great location. This chain needs some serious consultation & change of vendors or they won't be around for long. read more

Bar Louie in Irving ended up being a great night out. A friend brought me while I was in town, and the place immediately felt inviting. The staff was warm and attentive, the drinks were well made, and the music added just the right energy to the room. The whole space has a polished, upbeat feel without trying too hard. It's the kind of spot where you can relax, talk, and enjoy the atmosphere. I'd gladly return on my next visit. read more

Sam was a great server! She was very attentive and always checked on us! The food was very good as well!

1st time at this location. I like the VIBES! Service was fast and server was very friendly! Wasn't a fan of spinach dip because it taste like milk or cream was added, but truffle fries were good! My friends had the salmon sliders! They looked and smelled Great. I'll definitely try them next time. This will be my New Spot every time I'm in this area. Of, almost forgot to mention, but My Mojito was Delicious read more

Went in with my wife to have a snack and a couple of drinks so we sat at the bar. Very attentive staff and nice food. The place was clean and the bathrooms were very clean and stocked.

Heyy my name is 3 .... Samantha is the best server ever, ima tell all my fried to spend the whole check ate bar Louie. She was sooo attentive and helpful and the food was beyond amazing when she brought it out. read more

The food was just okay, there's wasn't really a sear on my steak, and the cut was fairly fatty. Honestly nothing too special about it. My girlfriend got the salmon with shrimp, the salmon was really good, between the two dishes it was the best. Asparagus was cooked well, but the potatoes were underwhelming. The place had a giant garage door open to let fresh air in, but this also let in numerous flies which kept landing on our plates and drink glasses. Service wasn't great but the one bar tender was being overrun until she was able to get some help. read more

We were in the area for a convention and stopepd in for some lunch and to escape the convention crowds for a bit. Our waitress was a beast, working a double shift on a busy weekend and doing a great job. I ordered salmon sliders and they tasted great! The location was a great break from the con, and the location is super convenient if you're in the area. read more

We hosted a friends 40th birthday at Bar Louie. The party room is perfect for a group setting. Everyone made it super easy to plan and made sure all of the party was having a good time. Frank was an absolute all star of a bar tender. Request him if you're having an event or stop by and see him when he's working at the restaurant. Would absolutely recommend going for a casual hangout or planning a party. read more

I like coming here when I need a good quality bite later in the evening. The food is a good selection and it's all pretty good. My favorite is the Cajun Salmon & Shrimp! They have a really good selection of cocktails and as well as beers. The late night specials on food and alcohol don't hurt either. I came on a Monday night, sat at the bar and was served by the amazing Frank. He was super nice and took such good care of me. He also balanced checking in on me and managing a pretty full bar top solo. I enjoyed myself and I think this place is a great balance of good food, great drinks & excellent service! read more

Ok it was slow burn as we may have waited 15 minutes to place our drink order our server Jaylen saved the day. His suggestion were on point as the Truffle flatbread was . Our drinks kick started the evening and the Chef burger was juicy was hot fries. Oh the kitchen manager Maritza even introduced yourself. We felt special. The vibe on Friday is a party live DJ and all smiles. Overall, I'm glad we came so if you need a spot for late night eats and drinks with good music come on in. read more
